  • Eastlink to Open on 29 June - Five Months Early
    12 May 2008 EASTLINK TO OPEN ON 29 JUNE - FIVE MONTHS EARLY ConnectEast, the owner and operator of EastLink, yesterday confirmed to the Victorian Government that it will deliver the $2.5 billion motorway on 29 June 2008 – on-budget and five months ahead of time. To celebrate the completion of this landmark Public Private Partnership project and to encourage motorist familiarisation, ConnectEast announced the first four weeks of operation will be toll-free. ConnectEast also revealed plans to host a community open day on Sunday 15 June to give people a once-in-a-lifetime chance to walk, run or cycle on the road before it opens to traffic. Managing Director, John Gardiner, said the opening of EastLink (and the untolled Ringwood Bypass) well ahead of the 30 November contract date demonstrated the capacity of the private sector to accelerate the delivery of massive projects. “Over the life of this construction ConnectEast has averaged $59 million expenditure per month, including five consecutive months when expenditure exceeded $100 million,” Mr Gardiner said. “This demonstrates the capacity of the private sector, with the support of government, to harness all the necessary resources to make big infrastructure projects a reality in the shortest possible time. “EastLink is already generating an economic and population boom in Melbourne’s outer east and south-east, with businesses and residents re-locating to make the most of the motorway. “EastLink will mean safer driving plus time and fuel savings every day for many thousands of Victorians. The road will revolutionise the lives of people living and working in Melbourne’s eastern and south-eastern suburbs by providing a high- quality uninterrupted north-south transport corridor from Mitcham to Frankston.

  • Final Submission – Western Distributor Tunnel Project EES Process by (Dr) Pat Love, Geoff Hjorth, Marlene Monahan, Jacob Holley, Jenny Harrison
    1 Final Submission – Western Distributor Tunnel Project EES Process By (Dr) Pat Love, Geoff Hjorth, Marlene Monahan, Jacob Holley, Jenny Harrison 1. Achieving the Project Objectives 1.1 Why are we doing this project? (slide 3) The EES identifies four objectives as targets that this project is designed to meet: (3) Improve transport performance in M1 Corridor Reduce reliance on West Gate Bridge Improve freight access to the Port of Melbourne Improve community amenity on local streets in inner west All of these are worthy goals. If transport is understood in its broadest sense – road, rail and active transport - then improving connectivity and providing transport options and building in network resilience is important for our long-term economic sustainability and liveability. However, this submission holds that this project of itself will not achieve all these aims. It is essentially a road project. It is transport in its narrowest definition. The addition of cycling infrastructure is window- dressing, and will not of itself ensure that more people of the M1 Corridor take up more active transport options, such as walking and cycling. The WDA presentation did not allude to any other city in the world taking these or similar steps to solve the future problems of amenity, transport connectivity and resilience. Melbourne is not the only city in the world with a traffic congestion problem. Is London proposing to build urban freeway through Shoreditch to the City? Is New York building an expressway through Manhattan? Not since Jane Jacobs defeated Robert Moses in protecting the Village. Where were references either in the EES or in the Business Case to the successful examples of cities other than Australia’s east coast capitals and US car-dependent mega-sprawl cities? The short answer is, there are none.

The Kearney map of 1855 shows land north of City Road (then Sandridge Road) as poorly-drained and avoided on account of its flood-prone nature. To the immediate south was Emerald Hill. The Port Melbourne railway crossed the river at The Falls and ran north of City Road. By the time of Commander Cox’s 1866 map, some industrial premises were located on the Yarra River bank and walking tracks connected them with the Sandridge Road and Emerald Hill.
