It has been prepared by Environmental Resources Management Australia Pty Ltd (ERM) on behalf of White Rock Wind Farm Pty Ltd (WRWFPL). Its purpose is to identify and manage the potential impacts to local traffic and transport infrastructure arising from the construction of WRWF Stage 1 (or the Project). This document is a further revision of the CTAMP, that was updated in December 2016, to incorporate the alternative southern access transport route for over-dimensional (OD) vehicles only via Ben Lomond Road. All other project traffic accessing the southern part of the project area should enter and exit by Grahams Valley, Maybole Road and Kelleys Road. The regular review and revision of environmental management plans is a key feature of effective construction management. It ensures that plans remain effective tools to assist manage potential impacts based on changes in project design or other circumstances. The review process is summarised in Chapter 9. 1.1 PURPOSE AND SCOPE The primary purpose of this CTAMP is to provide a reference document to maximise safety of all road users and Project personnel by consideration of issues arising from access to and from the WRWF site and identifying most appropriate management practices. It presents a set of mitigation measures, monitoring procedures and protocols that: • describe how WRWFPL will manage and control risks associated with traffic management during construction activities of the Project; • address the requirements of applicable legislation; • meet the Minister’s Conditions of Approval (MCoA); • address the performance objectives of the Project Environmental Assessment (EA) documents; and • has been prepared in consultation with Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) and relevant local Councils (Glen Innes Severn Council (GISC), Inverell Council (IC) and Armidale Regional Council (ARC). This CTAMP was produced in accordance with the recommendations provided within Roads and Traffic Authority (RTA) (2010) Traffic Control at Work Sites. Reference was also made to the Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) Supplements to Austroads Guide to Road Design. References to RTA now apply to Roads and Maritime Services (RMS).

  • Dangar's Lagoon
    Dangar’s Lagoon Dangar’s Lagoon is situated approximately 4km south of Uralla along the Walcha Road. Water levels at the lagoon often vary dramatically from season to season, but despite this fact, many varieties of bird species call the lagoon home. During wet seasons, large numbers of water birds can be observed from the bird hide, located at the southern end of the lagoon. Over the years, more than 110 different bird species have been recorded at the lagoon. These include Great Crested Grebes, Blue- billed Ducks and Whiskered Terns. Swamp Harriers and Whistling Kites can be spotted cruising overhead, while Nankeen Night Herons roost in the dead trees. In nearby paddocks, you may flush a Stubble Quail, or set to flight Fairy Wrens or Golden Headed Cisticolas. History Dangar’s Lagoon is one of about thirty lagoons and swamps scattered along the Great Dividing Range within the New England Tablelands region. The New England Tablelands were formed by the uplift of granite and adamelite intrusions approximately 250 million years ago. They extended from Stanthorpe in southern Queensland to the Moonbi Range north of Tamworth. The process of erosion formed a large, relatively level tableland dissected on the eastern edge by the escarpment line and encroaching gorges such as Apsley and Wollomombi. In some locations, the closure of natural drainage areas by sediments gradually formed shallow wetlands, swamps and lagoons such as Dangar’s Lagoon. Although there is little detailed knowledge, the use of these wetlands by local Aboriginal people is likely to have been extensive and seasonally important.

It improves the regional and national movement of north south freight, improves overall rail capacity, avoids the Sydney metropolitan bottleneck, and has the potential to reduce road transport conflicts. The Study provided a comprehensive overview of the economic, physical and environmental attributes of many route options that could contribute to the North South Rail Corridor linking Brisbane with Melbourne. None of the Sub Corridor route options demonstrated a positive economic return, based on the work of the Study. It did however identify that the Coastal Sub Corridor will be capacity constrained by 2019, suggesting that some action will be needed. Of the four Sub Corridors identified, the two inland options, being the Far Western and the Central Inland Sub Corridors were the most promising. These two Sub Corridors have 50% of their route in common. Options with the least capital cost demonstrated the most cost effective balance between cost and revenue, due to inelastic demand with increasing time saved.
