INTRODUCTION This report was prepared by the Water Research Laboratory (WRL) of the University of New South Wales for Warringah Council. It is the first in a series of annual data reports, to describe, quantify and analyse the regional-scale coastline variability and erosion/accretion trends that occur at Collaroy-Narrabeen Beaches. This annual summary supplements the on-line and ‘real-time’ monitoring program information that is available to Council and the community via the world-wide web (refer Section 5). It is intended that the growing database describe herein, of qualitative and quantitative coastal monitoring information, will inform and enhance the current and future management of the Collaroy-Narrabeen embayment. 1.1 General In July of 2004, an ARGUS coastal imaging system was installed at the Collaroy- Narrabeen site for an initial period of three years. This leading-edge technology was selected by Warringah Council to provide regional-scale, continuous and long-term monitoring of this ‘high value’ coastal embayment. It is the ability to provide quantitative as well as qualitative information that distinguishes the ARGUS coastal imaging system from conventional 'webcam' or 'surfcam' technology. Collaroy-Narrabeen is the first of a growing number of coastal management sites in New South Wales that now utilise coastal imaging technology and associated digital image techniques to monitor regional-scale coastal response to natural and engineered coastal impacts. Coastal imaging stations have been operating at coastal management sites in Australia since the first site was installed at the northern Gold Coast in 1999, and at the present time there are a total of 9 stations operating throughout Queensland and New South Wales (Turner et al., 2005). Electronic copies of this and all future monitoring reports (as they are produced) are made available for public viewing and download in PDF format at: Æ www.wrl.unsw.edu.au/coastalimaging/narrabn (link: monitoring reports) The purpose of this first report is to describe the ARGUS system now installed at the Collaroy-Narrabeen embayment, and to present a summary of the results of shoreline WRL TECHNICAL REPORT 2005/24 1-2. change analysis and erosion/accretion analysis for the initial 12-month monitoring period July 2004 to June 2005. 1.2 Report Outline Following this introduction, Section 2 of this report provides a brief description of the Collaroy-Narrabeen embayment, and in the particular the ‘Precinct 3’ study area. Section 3 contains a description of the ARGUS coastal imaging system, including the design, installation and calibration of the system at the Collaroy-Narrabeen site. The image types that are collected on a routine basis are illustrated in Section 4, along with an overview of the digital image processing techniques used to analyse the images. More detailed description is provided of the key image analysis method that is used on a routine (weekly) basis to map the shoreline and beach width at the Precinct 3 study area.

  • Alpha Numeric Route Numbering
    March 2014 Easier navigation for travellers in NSW Implementing a new alpha-numeric road numbering system Roads and Maritime Services has now completed an update of road signs in New South Wales as part of the introduction of the new alpha-numeric road numbering system. Introducing the system across the state has brought NSW into line with other State and Territories who are already using the nationally-agreed system. Stages of implementation Physical implementation of the new system started in May 2013. Work occurred in three stages and was completed in early December 2013: 1. May - July 2013: Routes where the number is changing (e.g. from route 18 to B72) 2. August – November 2013: Motorways and the majority of A routes 3. Nov – Dec 2013: All remaining A and B routes, and decommissioned routes. Final checking of routes and some minor modification works took place up to the end of March 2014. Renamed roads Some important routes have been renamed as motorways, as published in the Government Gazette on 1 February 2013: • M1 Pacific Motorway – previously known as the F3 - Sydney to Newcastle Expressway from the Pacific Highway at Wahroonga to John Renshaw Drive at Beresfield. • M1 Pacific Motorway – part of the former Pacific Highway from Brunswick Heads to the Queensland Border. • M1 Princes Motorway - previously known as the F6 Southern Freeway from Princes Highway at Waterfall to Mount Ousley Road to the Illawarra Highway at Yallah. • M4 Western Motorway – formerly known as the F4 Western Freeway from Concord Road (Great Western Highway) at Strathfield to Great Western Highway at Lapstone.
