New Town Rivulet Pedestrian Bridge 2021.1 Case Study Hobart, Tasmania – The New Town Rivulet is a permanently flowing creek with its headwaters from the springs and snow water run-offs of Mount Wellington. A rewarding walking trail, visitors experience the change in landscape from urban, to suburban to bushland. There is also the Greek-styled Lady New Town Rivulet Franklin Museum, which is now occupied by the Art Society Pedestrian Bridge of Tasmania. The existing pedestrian bridge needed to be replaced. Treadwell was engaged to supply the FRP products for the new bridge. Project Challenges PROJECT INFORMATION • Selected decking had to be anti-slip to ensure user safety. Project Category: Recreational Public Infrastructure • Being installed in the outdoor environment, corrosion resistance and longevity were key concerns. Scope of Work: Supply FRP decking for bridge • Selected decking would have to accommodate concentrated point weight loadings. Treadwell Products: ACCESS SYSTEMS GratEX® FRP Mini Mesh Grating Treadwell Solution: 1 High performance GratEX® FRP grating was specified in building this structure as a preferred solution over traditional materials. Treadwell’s FRP products are constructed from premium resin 2 systems that include corrosion resistant properties and UV inhibitors, as well as fire retardant additives, making it ideal for this outdoor application. 3 The anti-slip surface does not impact the load carrying capacity. 4 FRP is simply fabricated and modified on site. This means there is no need for any hot works permit. 5 Given the nature of FRP, any system utilizing it is virtually maintenance free, keeping maintenance costs to a minimum.

  • Derwent Estuary Program Environmental Management Plan February 2009
    Engineering procedures for Southern Tasmania Engineering procedures foprocedures for Southern Tasmania Engineering procedures for Southern Tasmania Derwent Estuary Program Environmental Management Plan February 2009 Working together, making a difference The Derwent Estuary Program (DEP) is a regional partnership between local governments, the Tasmanian state government, commercial and industrial enterprises, and community-based groups to restore and promote our estuary. The DEP was established in 1999 and has been nationally recognised for excellence in coordinating initiatives to reduce water pollution, conserve habitats and species, monitor river health and promote greater use and enjoyment of the foreshore. Our major sponsors include: Brighton, Clarence, Derwent Valley, Glenorchy, Hobart and Kingborough councils, the Tasmanian State Government, Hobart Water, Tasmanian Ports Corporation, Norske Skog Boyer and Nyrstar Hobart Smelter. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Derwent: Values, Challenges and Management The Derwent estuary lies at the heart of the Hobart metropolitan area and is an asset of great natural beauty and diversity. It is an integral part of Tasmania’s cultural, economic and natural heritage. The estuary is an important and productive ecosystem and was once a major breeding ground for the southern right whale. Areas of wetlands, underwater grasses, tidal flats and rocky reefs support a wide range of species, including black swans, wading birds, penguins, dolphins, platypus and seadragons, as well as the endangered spotted handfish. Nearly 200,000 people – 40% of Tasmania’s population – live around the estuary’s margins. The Derwent is widely used for recreation, boating, fishing and marine transportation, and is internationally known as the finish-line for the Sydney–Hobart Yacht Race.

At that time the shortage of personnel, the shortage of documentation and the lack of their text do not make it possible to establish with certainty affiliation. One must be often satisfied with probability and limited data. During the 14th Century, amongst subjects of the Princes of Valangin we find in year 1350, the name of Yermin which becomes Small Jehan then Jehanneret then Jeanneret. In 1447, the population of valley-I-Ruz becoming more numerous, the lord of Valangin supports the colonists who from there in the High Jura will call themselves as clearer- ploughman. At the 14th Century they are established in Segue, with the Between-two-Mounts, Locle the Lime of Bottoms. A family of the name of Jeanneret is installed with the hamlet of Crozot on Locle, an official letter going back to 1612, addressed to Jean-Jacques Jeanneret, Bourgois of Valangin.

Good days, but more bad days on the Great Lake, and some good jassid falls at the end of the season. In the north of the state, it was a similar story. Significant rain washed away the hoppers from the river banks and the usually reliable hopper fishing went with On Sunday 27th March some of the members met it. However, Four Springs produced good hatches at patron Barbara Fowler‟s lovely property, and some outstanding fishing days. How I wish Bendeveron, for the annual casting day.

This thesis sets out to fill that gap, dividing the history into three distinct phases. The first, from settlement to 1870 was unsuccessful and it was generally accepted by the end of that phase that Tasmania was “not a wine growing country”.
