Submission Guide – Page 2 Western Harbour Tunnel and Warringah Freeway Upgrade ISSUES TO CONSIDER The project has three major areas of local impact you may want to comment on, depending on where you live. Please note the number of properties affected by noise and vibration are estimates provided by the government. The experience of the WestConnex project to date demonstrates these projections can be seriously flawed with lived impacts being more intense and widespread. In fact, in Rozelle the government has acquired several properties that were not planned to be purchased as the impact was so severe. Impacts at Victoria Rd, Rozelle construction site The former Balmain Leagues Club site will be used as a tunnel excavation site. Construction at this site will place the community under unacceptable pressure due to: ● Excessive construction noise 208 homes will be impacted by noise including 27 homes which will be ‘highly noise affected’ by rock-hammering during site establishment. In addition, 210 properties will be impacted by noise at night. Excessive noise can cause stress, impact sleep and reduce quality of life while ongoing noise can seriously impact people’s health. Extensive noise monitoring and noise mitigation should be required at all impacted homes. ● Ineffective dust mitigation A large amount of dust is expected to be generated by demolition, earthworks and track-out at this site. While mitigation measures like watering will be put in place the EIS admits that they will not be ‘effective all the time’. Extensive measures are required to adequately mitigate the impact of construction and excavation dust. ● Increased truck movements The Project will generate 420 heavy vehicle movements and 230 light vehicle movements per day at the Victoria Rd, Rozelle site which is already subject to capacity traffic movements at both Darling St and Victoria Road. Increased traffic on local roads and truck stack parking decreases existing residential amenity and lessens land value. ● Construction workers taking on-street parking and truck stack parking Local experience with WestConnex demonstrates that despite efforts by the contractor to bus in workers or encourage public transport usage, workers suck up on-street parking around major construction sites. The contractor should be required to provide parking for 100% of workers on site to protect resident amenity. Submission Guide – Page 3 Western Harbour Tunnel and Warringah Freeway Upgrade Impacts at White Bay construction and sediment treatment site White Bay will be used to construct and transport immersed tunnel tubes as well as for the treatment and transfer of sediment and spoil dredged from the harbour floor. The site will also be used for worker parking for other construction sites like Rozelle Rail Yards and Yurulbin Point. Work at this site will place the community under unacceptable pressure due to: ● Possible health risks Dredged sediments excavated from White Bay and from the immersion tube tunnel (from Birchgrove to Waverton) contain the toxic contaminants including dioxins, tributyl tin, polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons, and heavy metals. While the EIS provides the volumes of sediment that will be dredged, it does not provide the concentrations of these compounds meaning that the risk to human health and to the marine ecosystem of Sydney Harbour cannot be adequately assessed. The dioxins are of special concern because they are the contaminants that led to prohibition and limits of fishing in Sydney Harbour west of the Harbour Bridge. Tributyl tin is especially toxic to marine life and was widely used to prevent growth on the hulls of vessels until banned from use. ● Unacceptable odour impacts The EIS does not adequately address odour impacts which will occur during the transport and processing of toxic dredged materials at White Bay and for the immersed tube tunnel. The EIS states that odour impacts will be minimal because materials will be wet and lists no significant measures to mitigate the impact on residents. Sediments in Sydney Harbour and estuaries are known to be odorous and excavated sediments will likely require treatment. ● Excessive noise and vibrations The EIS lists 92 properties that will be impacted by noise with five properties to be impacted by noise at night. These figures seem to refer to entire stratas rather than individual homes which is misleading. Excessive noise can cause stress, impact sleep and reduce quality of life while ongoing noise can seriously impact people’s health. Extensive noise monitoring and noise mitigation should be installed in all impacted homes. ● Long operational time for White Bay sediment treatment plant The White Bay treatment facility is proposed in the EIS to treat 142,500 cubic metres of contaminated sediments that are not suitable for offshore disposal. This is a huge quantity and the space allotted in the EIS is small (1000 square metres) and is close to Birrung Park and residences in Donnelly Street. The facility is stated in the EIS to operate for 3 years, but there is concern that it may need to operate for longer. ● Increased truck movements The Project will generate up to 700 heavy vehicle movements and 530 light vehicle movements per day from the White Bay site. Increased traffic on local roads and truck stack parking decreases existing residential amenity and lessens land value. ● Construction workers taking on-street parking and truck stack parking Local experience with WestConnex demonstrates that despite promises by the contractor to bus in workers or encourage public transport usage, in actuality workers monopolise on-street parking around major construction sites. This will especially be the case at White Bay as workers who are not able to park near sites like the Yurulbin Point cofferdam will be required to drive to White Bay and be barged Submission Guide – Page 4 Western Harbour Tunnel and Warringah Freeway Upgrade on. The contractor must be required to provide parking for 100% of workers on site to protect resident amenity. Impacts at Yurulbin Point cofferdam Yurulbin Point will be used as a tunnel excavation site. Temporary wharves will be constructed as well as land based construction activities on Yurulbin Park. Construction at this site will place the community under unacceptable pressure due to: ● Loss of greenspace and destruction of trees Trees in Yurulbin Park will be felled to make way for a large acoustic shed and other site works which will lock this park up for four years. The EIS does not describe precisely how many trees will be destroyed or detail the plan to replace them or rehabilitate the area. If trees are felled, the contractor should be required to replace them with mature trees, not seedlings. ● Closure of Birchgrove Ferry Wharf The Birchgrove ferry wharf will be closed for up to 2.5 years which would affect existing ferry services and recreational use of the wharf. No additional bus services will be added to timetables during the wharf’s closure and the EIS suggests residents walk the 1.7km to Balmain Wharf to access ferries. The EIS states that opportunities to relocate the Birchgrove Ferry Wharf will be ‘investigated’ but makes no commitment. ● Unacceptable noise and vibrations The EIS lists 229 homes that will be impacted by noise during site establishment with 2 properties to be 'highly noise affected' by rock-hammers, chainsaws and mulchers. In addition, 79 homes will be impacted by noise at night from barges unloading concrete. Excessive noise can cause stress, impact sleep and reduce quality of life while ongoing noise can seriously impact people’s health. Extensive noise monitoring and noise mitigation should be installed in all impacted homes. ● Construction workers taking on-street parking The EIS describes a plan to barge workers in from White Bay to the Yurulbin Point construction site in order to prevent workers accessing the site from Louisa Road where parking is already extremely restricted – especially considering the planned removal of the parking spaces at Yurulbin Park. Throughout the course of the WestConnex project, workers have routinely flouted the instructions of the contractor to access construction sites via public transport and shuttle buses and instead monopolised resident parking.

  • Western Harbour Tunnel & Warringah Freeway Upgrade
    NSW Major Projects NSW Government 30th March, 2020. Dear Sir or Madame, RE: Western Harbour Tunnel & Warringah Freeway Upgrade I am writing in support of Bike North and their submission on the Western Harbour Tunnel & Warringah Freeway Upgrade.i Bicycle NSW has been the peak bicycle advocacy group now in NSW for over forty-three years, and has over 30 affiliated local Bicycle User Groups, including Bike North. Bicycle NSW exists to create a better environment for all bicycle riders and our advocacy is guided by three policy pillars to achieve this namely: Build it for Everyone: cycling infrastructure should be built suitable for all riders, and we say ‘from 8-80’ as a reminder that children through to elders should all be able to use it independently Safe Home: because everyone deserves to arrive home safely and laws, regulation and enforcement need to support this Invest Now for Health: calls for government to recognise the importance of investment in safe cycling to address the rising impact of inactivity on human health Bicycle NSW agrees with and supports the objections of Bike North to the proposal on the basis that: The proposal would entrench private, environmentally damaging transport at the expense of public and active transport The EIS fails to provide a full detailed business case to support this proposal over public transport investment The project fails to include delivery of the North Shore Cycleway as part of the project or at least the section between Naremburn and the Sydney Harbour Bridge. This directly contradicts Sydney’s Cycling Future (NSW Government, Dec 2013) that requires that the ‘needs of people on bike be included throughout the planning of new and upgraded road projects’, and that ‘bicycle facilities be identified and delivered parallel to major transport corridors’.

  • Western Harbour Tunnel and Warringah Freeway Upgrade - EIS SSI 8863
    25 March 2019 File No: 2020/065301 Naomi Moss Contact Planner Department of Planning, Industry and Environment 4 Parramatta Square 12 Darcy Street Parramatta NSW 2150 Via: NSW Planning Portal Dear Naomi Western Harbour Tunnel and Warringah Freeway Upgrade - EIS SSI_8863 Thank you for the opportunity to provide comments on the Environmental Impact Statement for the Western Harbour Tunnel and Warringah Freeway Upgrade State Significant Infrastructure Project. The key points that the City of Sydney wishes to raise are provided in the following pages. Should you wish to speak with a Council officer about the above, please contact Elise Webster, Manager Transport Major Projects on 9265 9333 or at [email protected] Yours sincerely, Graham Jahn AM Director City Planning I Development I Transport 2 Introduction The City of Sydney (the City) has been a long-time critic of WestConnex. This is primarily because this costly motorway project will fail in its primary objective of easing congestion. Urban motorways do not solve congestion; they induce demand for motor vehicle trips and any additional capacity created is quickly filled. This phenomenon applies equally to the Western Harbour Tunnel and Warringah Freeway (the WHT) Project, a component of the WestConnex expansion. The number of vehicles entering the city from the north and the Roselle area is currently limited by the capacity of the Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Anzac Bridge. These bridges also accommodate traffic which bypasses the CBD. When six separate bypass lanes are provided as part of the WHT project there will then be additional capacity on the Harbour Bridge and Anzac Bridge to access the CBD by vehicle.

  • An Investigation of the Causes of Over-Optimistic Patronage Forecasts for Selected Recent Toll Road Projects 8 December 2011
    Revised Final Report Department of Infrastructure and Transport An investigation of the causes of over-optimistic patronage forecasts for selected recent toll road projects 8 December 2011 Executive Summary The Australian Government Department of Infrastructure and Transport is investigating the causes of over-optimistic patronage forecasts with the purpose of identifying potential remedies. This report contributes to that investigation via case studies of selected toll road projects to identify challenges in processes and opportunities for improvements, so that lessons from the past may guide practice in the future. Two major cases CityLink (Melbourne) and Lane Cove Tunnel (Sydney) with two supporting cases Westlink M7 (Sydney) and the Go Between Bridge (Brisbane) were chosen for coverage of geography, timing, physical characteristic and forms of funding. Desktop research supported by interviews with stakeholders covering the spectrum of stakeholders in the road procurement process found: PPP bidding processes for toll roads lead to selection of the most optimistic of optimistic forecasts: Government forecasts, erring on the high side to avoid under-estimating environmental impacts, may set a forecast ‘floor’ Traffic modellers in bid teams produce a ‘low’ forecast above this floor for debt lenders and a ‘high’ estimate of possible returns for those taking equity Equity forecasts are submitted with bids and the highest forecast almost always wins. Four-step models used in most toll road forecasts: Have some intrinsic positive biases when modelling toll road patronage More importantly they provide many opportunities for optimistic selection of parameters Optimism can more easily occur in the absence of data for example about values of time or traffic flow by day of week and month of year; and Estimates of ramp up in traffic after opening may be especially subject to optimism; and/or Deliberate selections to raise forecasts, such has high growth rates for population or the economy, may be applied.
