  • Renaissance of Light Rail in Sydney – Key Environmental Challenges, Opportunities and Solutions
    Renaissance of light rail in Sydney – Key environmental challenges, opportunities and solutions David Gainsford (MEIANZ) Transport for NSW Australia [email protected] Paper: Background At its peak, in 1923 Sydney had a 291km tram network that was the largest in Australia and the second largest in the Commonwealth (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trams_in_Sydney). By 1961 all tram lines in Sydney had been demolished and were largely replaced by buses. Figure 1 – Extent of Tramways in Sydney in 1947 (http://www.tundria.com/trams/AUS/Sydney-1947.shtml) 1 In 1997 light rail services began operations in Sydney again with a service between Central and Wentworth Park, extended to Lilyfield in 2000. Most of this line operates on a disused freight rail line. The NSW Government released the ‘Sydney’s Light Rail Future’ document in December 2012 (NSW Government, 2012) which details a renaissance of light rail projects in Sydney. The first new project detailed in this document was opened in March 2014 consisting of the 5.6km Inner West extension to the existing Lilyfield to Central Light Rail line (total length now 12.8km). Planning approval has now been granted to construct the $1.6 billion 12km long CBD and South East Light Rail (CSELR). In June 2014, the NSW Government committed $400 million to the commencement of a Western Sydney Light Rail, centred on Parramatta. Light rail projects are also proposed in Newcastle and in Canberra. Figure 2 - Current and Proposed Sydney Light Rail Network 2 Figure 3 – Potential Parramatta-based Light Rail Alignment Options (http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/newslocal/parramatta/extensive-light-rail- system-will-transform-transport-in-western-sydney/story-fngr8huy-1226958390644) The light rail projects are promoted as providing improved reliability of service and capacity to the denser urban areas that they serve.

  • Media Release: Customer Convenience Is King with Transdev to Deliver On-Demand Transport Pilots in Sydney
    MEDIA RELEASE: CUSTOMER CONVENIENCE IS KING WITH TRANSDEV TO DELIVER ON-DEMAND TRANSPORT PILOTS IN SYDNEY 16 August 2017 Leading international transport company Transdev will partner with the New South Wales Government to provide on-demand ride services to customers in Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs, Manly and Sutherland Shire from late this year – part of a programme of transport pilots announced today. Customers in the Eastern Suburbs and Manly will be able to simplify their commute, by booking a shuttle ride to and from their local transport hub, connecting seamlessly with ferries, trains and buses. In Sutherland Shire, customers will have access to fully accessible on-demand shuttle services within four neighbourhood zones making it easier to get from A to B. Transdev CEO René Lalande said the new on-demand services would bring greater convenience to customers, provide a superior service and support the state government’s vision to innovate the transport network. “We are excited to be working in partnership with Transport for New South Wales on two pilots in Sydney to demonstrate our international experience delivering on-demand solutions, embracing technology and offering customers a great journey,” Mr Lalande said. Transdev will use its smart routing software and technology, proven in United States and The Netherlands, to optimise travel times and routes for the on-demand pilots. Transdev currently operates buses, ferries and light rail in Sydney and employs around 5,800 people across Australia and New Zealand. Internationally, Transdev operates successful transport-on- demand services in France, the Netherlands, United States, United Kingdom, Sweden and Portugal.

    Annual Report 2013 to 2014 3 OFFICE OF THE Annual Report 2013 to 2014 Annual Report 2013–2014 4 Letter of transmission TRANSPORT AND INFRASTRUCTURE COUNCIL Dear Ministers It is my pleasure to submit to you the first full year annual report of the Office of the National Rail Safety Regulator (ONRSR). The report is separately provided to all participating jurisdictional Ministers for Transport for tabling in their respective parliaments. The ONRSR Annual Report 2013 to 2014 has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Rail Safety National Law 2012 (RSNL). The report is structured to reflect delivery against the ONRSR’s Corporate Plan 2013 to 2016 which has been endorsed by the Transport and Infrastructure Council and promoted to stakeholders. Yours sincerely Rob Andrews Chief Executive About this report The Office of the National Rail Safety Regulator (ONRSR) is a Body Corporate established under the Rail Safety National Law (RSNL) and under the Law is not subject to Ministerial direction in the exercise of its functions and powers. The RSNL requires the Regulator to deliver to the responsible Ministers a report on the ONRSR’s activities for each financial year. This report covers the activities of the ONRSR for the financial year 2013 to 2014 for those jurisdictions in which the ONRSR had legal accountabilities for safety regulation for this reporting period, namely South Australia, New South Wales, the Northern Territory and Tasmania. The report does not cover the regulatory ONRSR activities in Victoria which commenced in late May 2014 but does includes the ONRSR activities leading to the enactment of the Victorian legislation by which accountability for rail regulation transitioned to the ONRSR.

  • Veolia Transdev Australasia
    VEOLIA TRANSDEV AUSTRALASIA SUBMISSION IN RESPONSE TO THE DRAFT NSW LONG TERM TRANSPORT MASTER PLAN OCTOBER 2012 S VEOLIA TRANSDEV AUSTRALASIA SUBMISSION IN RESPONSE TO THE DRAFT NSW LONG TERM TRANSPORT MASTER PLAN OCTOBER 2012 INTRODUCTION Veolia Transdev Australia is very happy to provide this submission in response to the release of the draft NSW Long Term Transport Master Plan (LTTMP). Firstly the NSW Government should be congratulated for taking the time to prepare such a detailed and thorough plan and for its commitment to gather and consider the feedback from the community. When the draft plan was released, some of the commentary argued that there should have been detailed funding allocation and commitments to specific projects. In our view this criticism is not justified and it is entirely appropriate that time be taken to plan and budget for the correct priorities, taking into account community feedback in the process. The clear distinction between actions and projects to be delivered in either the short, medium or longer term provides proper insight to operators like us as well as customers and taxpayers – they know that not everything can or should be delivered in the next year but providing a clear timeline will help with their assessment. The clear framework in the plan should encourage consistency and enhance accountability. It is encouraging that the plan both sets the direction for the next two decades but also shines light on the path for the next few years and makes clear that sectoral and other plans will provide further detail. We agree with the government about the key themes: 1.

  • A Practical Scheme for Light Rail Extensions in Inner Sydney
    A PRACTICAL SCHEME FOR LIGHT RAIL EXTENSIONS IN INNER SYDNEY Tony Prescott This article originally appeared in Transit Australia, vol. 63, no. 11 (November 2008), pages 323-330; vol. 63, no. 12 (December 2008), pages 355-360; and vol. 64, no. 1 (January 2009), pages 4-6. It has been edited for digital publication on 14 November 2008. © 2008 Background This article addresses the practicalities of extending inner-Sydney’s light rail network along the corridors broadly suggested in a number of official and community proposals over the last two decades, ranging from the general 1997 Light Rail Strategic Plan (NSW Public Transport Advisory Council) to the detailed 2005 Glazebrook report (Glazebrook Associates 2005), recommendations of which are illustrated in Fig. 1. All schemes have in common lines that run in a mixed-traffic (on-street) environment, often with the objective of replacing congested trunk bus services. The Central-Circular Quay and Hickson Road/Sussex Street proposals are not examined in detail here because they have been the subject of thorough analysis in several reports (City of Sydney Web site). The Glazebrook report presents the best-analysed network proposal and is used as the broad framework for this article. Other schemes, such as that presented on the Metro Light Rail Web site and those of community organisations, vary only in detail rather than basic corridors. These corridors, as identified in the Glazebrook report, are as follows: · Eastern - along Oxford Street and Bondi Road to Bondi Beach. · South Eastern - along Anzac Parade towards Maroubra. · Southern - through the southern industrial/residential area towards Mascot · Inner West - along Parramatta Road to Burwood and extension of the existing light rail line towards Canada Bay The Glazebrook report presents the justification for light rail in inner Sydney and the choice of these route corridors.

  • Transdev Partners with Saint-Etienne Métropole for the Commissioning Of
    Transdev partners with Saint-Etienne Métropole for the commissioning of the T3 light rail line extension Issy-Les-Moulineaux (France) – November 18, 2019 – With the inauguration of the extended Saint-Etienne Métropole T3 light rail line on Saturday, November 16, Transdev confirms its world leadership in the operation of 24 light rail networks in 10 countries. Transdev, a long-standing partner of Saint-Etienne Métropole through its STAS network, which has been present in the region since 2000, is very happy and proud to support the local authority in its ambition to place mobility and energy transition at the heart of its priorities. The metropolis of Saint-Etienne remains the only territory in France to have maintained the operation of its light rail over the centuries, since it was put into service in December 1881; the last development was the creation of the T2 line in 2006. This 4.3 kilometer extension of the light rail's T3 line, linking Châteaucreux station to Roger Rocher station, includes eight stops, six of which are new, and extends the light rail network to the north of the Saint-Etienne metropolis. The light rail is part of an overall urban development strategy for the north-eastern sector of the urban area with the aim of making the area more attractive. With the extension of the T3 line, the service to Saint-Étienne's three main multimodal transport hubs (La Terrasse, Châteaucreux and Bellevue) strengthens the network of "backbone" public transport at the scale of the Sud-Loire area. Accompanied by the creation or renovation of park and ride solutions easily accessible from the road network, the extension of the third light rail line also creates new possibilities for car-light rail intermodality.
