    3. Planning and Legislation

    Capital Metro Authority Capital Metro Russell Extension Project - Preliminary Environmental Assessment 3. Planning and legislation 3.1 Overview The planning approvals process for the Project would comprise a mix of both Territory and Commonwealth requirements as the Project corridor falls under the administrative authority of both the National Capital Authority (NCA) and the ACT Government through the Environment and Planning Directorate (EPD). The authority jurisdictions of the NCA and EPD are discussed in section 3.2 below. This Chapter provides an overview of the applicable planning and approvals process that the Russell Extension Project would be required to follow to gain approval. 3.1.1 Approach to planning approvals for the Russell Extension Project As noted above, the Russell Extension Project would be undertaken as Stage 2 of the proposed Civic to Gungahlin Project (Stage 1). An Environmental Impact Statement for the Stage 1 Civic to Gungahlin Project and is currently (as at September 2015) being determined by EPS. As such, the Russell Extension Project environment and planning approvals are being progressed separately to the Stage 1 planning approvals. This approach has the following key implications to the Russell Extension Project: the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) currently being prepared for the Stage 1 Civic to Gungahlin Project under the ACT Planning & Development Act 2007 (P&D Act) does not address the Russell Extension Project the Stage 1 Gungahlin to Civic Development Application to be submitted to the ACT Government

Living Streets recommends that: 1. annual expenditure on walking be set at 8% of total transport expenditure until the walking mode share targets in Transport for Canberra are achieved, and thereafter at 7%, reflecting Transport for Canberra©s 7% walking mode share target for 2026. 2. high priority for transport expenditure goes to: a. improving safety and connectivity in and around Civic; b. progressively increasing the reach of the urban cycling and walking network, to match the reach of the road network by 2026; c. $9 million to implement twenty-five highly cost-effective trunk walking and cycling projects; d. footpath maintenance and connectivity improvements; and e. reviewing prioritisation of local walking and cycling infrastructure projects.

  • Light Rail Update

    Light Rail Update

    Gungahlin to Woden (via Barton) Light Rail Update DATE: 15 June 2018 Artist impression Artist impression STATEMENT FROM THE MINISTER FOR TRANSPORT AND CITY SERVICES Canberra is one of the world’s most liveable cities – a destination of choice to live, work, visit and invest. As Australia grows, so too will Canberra. The ACT Government is planning for our city’s growth by ensuring we have sufficient transport infrastructure in place before increasing congestion critically impacts our highly regarded urban amenity and quality of life. Canberra’s light rail network is a transformational city-shaping project for the Territory, providing an attractive, reliable and convenient public transport choice that connects families, students, communities and cultures. The initial corridor between Gungahlin and Woden via the City and the Parliamentary Zone will form the backbone of the network, linking activity centres north and south of Lake Burley Griffin. In time it will be intersected by a future east-west corridor operating between Belconnen and the Canberra International Airport and other network extensions. This light rail update focusses on the development of the City to Woden (via Barton) portion of Canberra’s overall light rail network. Since the last light rail update, the ACT Government has reaffirmed its commitment to developing the project with $12.5 million to be invested in progressing the project throughout the 2018-19 financial year. The ACT Government also welcomes the upcoming inquiry into the project to be conducted by the Commonwealth’s Joint Standing Committee on the National Capital and External Territories. The ACT Government will continue to engage with the Canberra community as the City to Woden light rail project develops, and as the City to Gungahlin light rail alignment draws closer to completion.

  • Referral of Proposed Action

    Referral of Proposed Action

    DATE: August 2016 Referral of proposed action Project title: ANZAC Park East and ANZAC Park West - Sale 1 Summary of proposed action 1.1 Short description The Commonwealth, represented by the Department of Finance (Finance), proposes to sell the following properties: ANZAC Park East (described as Block 1 Section 4 Division of Parkes District of Canberra) in the Australian Capital Territory as shown on Deposited Plan 7820 (APE); and ANZAC Park West (described as Block 7 Section 3 Division of Parkes District of Canberra) in the Australian Capital Territory, including the ANZAC Park West Cafeteria (APW). APE and APW are listed in the Commonwealth Heritage List under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (Cth) (EPBC Act) in the following entries (refer to Attachment A and B): Parliament House Vista (Place ID 105466); and Parliament House Vista Extension – Portal Buildings (Place ID 105474). The West Portal Cafeteria (Place ID 102813) is also nominated for inclusion in the Commonwealth Heritage List (Attachment C). Subdivision of APW Prior to sale, APW will be subdivided into two lots: one containing the APW building and the other containing the West Portal Cafeteria. See the plan at Attachment D. (For ease of reference we will refer to the former site as 'APW Building' and the latter site as 'APW Cafeteria'.) The sale of APE, APW Building and APW Cafeteria will be by way of a 99-year Crown lease of each property. The sale may be undertaken together in one sale process, or may be undertaken separately. The Commonwealth is of the view that there is no prospect that the existing APE and APW buildings can be retained, for the reasons provided in the Referral.
