Plan) is the strategy and blueprint and intentions for planning, designing and developing Canberra and the Territory. At a detailed level, the Plan sets out detailed conditions of planning, design and development for those areas identified as having the special characteristics of the National Capital (the Designated Areas). The Anzac Park East and West sites are within Designated Areas, specifically the Constitution Avenue and Anzac Parade Precinct. The Constitution Avenue and Anzac Parade Precinct Code of the the Plan requires detailed conditions of design and development to be developed for Anzac Park East and West. The detailed conditions must address (at a minimum) the following: building facades, including articulation, materials and colour access and circulation building form landscape structure and open space lighting and must not be inconsistent with the heritage values of the sites. This document sets out the detailed conditions for planning, design and development as required by the Plan for Anzac Park East and West. The conditions provide guidance on the planning and development of a mixed precinct at the intersection of Anzac Parade and Constitution Avenue in the Central National Area (CNA) of Canberra. The document describes , wide range of permitted land uses promoting a lively mixed use precinct and proximity to surrounding land uses including a mix of commercial office, public administration, symbolic landscape and tourist oriented development. These conditions reinforce the provisions of the Plan for the Anzac Parade and Constitution Avenue Precinct by requiring the delivery of high quality landmark buildings on the sites which are integrated into the surrounding urban environment. The document is intended to be complementary to, and to be read in conjunction with the Plan. Any development on the site is subject to works approval by the National Capital Authority (NCA) and assessment against the Plan and these detailed conditions of planning, design and development. PURPOSE The overall success of the design and construction on these important sites hinges on the quality of the design response to the key themes outlined in this document. Each key theme is described by a set of objectives and development conditions that supplement the requirements of the Plan. The conditions build on the foundations set out in the Plan for the Constitution Avenue and Anzac Parade Precinct and other relevant parts of the Plan. In addition to the requirements of the Plan, these detailed conditions provide greater direction as to the expected development and planning outcomes on the site. These conditions making framework and provide a key tool for consideration of any master plan implantation strategies (MPIS), works approval applications or offsite works proposed on the site. Guidance on interpreting these controls on the site is provided, as well as the base expectations of the quality of design expected by the NCA at the works approval application stage. 4 SITE LOCATION The subject sites are located at the intersection of Anzac Parade and Constitution Avenue in Parkes, Australian Capital Territory. The sites sit either side of the Anzac Parade at its southern end and are bounded by Constitution Avenue and Parkes Way. Anzac Parade is a key ceremonial space of the city and the focus in National commemoration. Constitution Avenue is a major ceremonial avenue in the National Capital, as one of the key structural elements -west links. Constitution Avenue forms the base of the National Triangle. The significance of the Avenue should be reinforced by development of the sites. Figure 1 Location Map showing subject sites and location within National Triangle 5 ADJACENT BUILDINGS AND LAND USE In close proximity to Anzac Park East and West are the Canberra Central Parklands (Kings and Commonwealth Parks), Rond Terrace, the Ben Chifley Building, St John Institute of Technology (CIT) Reid.

  • Schedule of Classified Roads and State and Regional Roads
    Schedule of Classified Roads and Unclassified Regional Roads Changes to this document are captured in ‘Recently Gazetted Changes’: http://www.rms.nsw.gov.au/business-industry/partners-suppliers/lgr/arrangements-councils/road-classification.html Summary Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) is required under the Roads Act 1993 s163 (4) to keep a record of all classified roads. To satisfy this commitment, this document contains a record of the roads classified under sections 46, 47, 50 or 51 of the Roads Act 1993 that have a Legal Class of Highway, Main Road, Secondary Road or Tourist Road - as legally described by Declaration Order in the Government Gazette. To manage the extensive network of roads for which council is responsible under the Roads Act 1993, RMS in partnership with local government established an administrative framework of State, Regional, and Local Road categories. State Roads are managed and financed by RMS and Regional and Local Roads are managed and financed by councils. Regional Roads perform an intermediate function between the main arterial network of State Roads and council controlled Local Roads. Due to their network significance RMS provides financial assistance to councils for the management of their Regional Roads. The Regional Road category comprises two sub- categories: those Regional Roads that are classified pursuant to the Roads Act 1993, and those Regional Roads that are unclassified. For completeness, the Schedule includes unclassified Regional Roads. Local Roads are unclassified roads and therefore are not included in the Schedule. The recently introduced alpha-numeric route numbering (MAB) system used for wayfinding purposes in NSW does not directly relate to the legal classification of roads and has not been incorporated into this Schedule.

  • Ground Transport Plan More Than 30,000 People Currently Travel to and from Canberra Airport to Fly, Greet, Work, Do Business Or Shop, Every Day
    CHAPTER 11 GROUND TRANSPORT PLAN MORE THAN 30,000 PEOPLE CURRENTLY TRAVEL TO AND FROM CANBERRA AIRPORT TO FLY, GREET, WORK, DO BUSINESS OR SHOP, EVERY DAY. THESE NUMBERS WILL MORE THAN DOUBLE WITHIN THE NEXT DECADE. 11 Ground transport plan Canberra Airport adjoins Majura Interchange at the junction of Canberra’s north-south and east-west corridors. As such, the Airport is strategically located for the development of a major activity node. Similar airports around the world, where major activity nodes are developing, are now known as an Aerotropolis. Being so close to the CBD and Parliament House, as well as having such a large number of residents (particularly from Queanbeyan, Tuggeranong and Gungahlin) drive through the Majura Interchange past or nearby the Airport every day. The Airport is a key employment location to minimise drive times and travel distance for sustainable transport initiatives. Canberra Airport and the ACT Government (especially Roads ACT) have worked co- operatively since 1998 on the delivery of ground transport solutions for the entire Majura Valley so metropolitan and regional through traffic can be better managed without constraining local traffic flows. In addition to regular consultation and partnering in updating traffic studies and work programs, the development of previous Airport Master Plans (1999, 2005 and 2009), and the ACT Government’s 2006 Majura Valley Roads Roundtable have provided an ongoing robust process for identifying the traffic demand source and solutions. During 2007 – 2012 Canberra Airport made representation to the Australian Government supporting the ACT Government’s request for Majura Parkway funding. In 2013 Canberra Airport contributed to the public debate on light rail for Canberra.
