  • Installation of New and Extended Clearways on Windsor Road And
    Installation of new and extended clearways on Windsor Road and Church Street from Baulkham Hills to Parramatta Roads and Maritime Services | January 2018 The NSW Government is funding this project as part of its $121 million Clearways Program, which aims to reduce congestion and delays on Sydney’s roads. Roads and Maritime Services is installing new Clearways on Windsor Road and Church Street, Baulkham weekend and extended weekday clearways on Hills to Parramatta Windsor Road and Church Street from Old Northern Road, Baulkham Hills to Victoria Road, Parramatta in February 2018. We have included a map to show the location of the new clearways. Changes to the clearways will be operational from Monday 26 February 2018. Any vehicles parked in the clearways on or after these dates will risk being fined and towed. The new weekend and extended weekday clearway hours on Windsor Road are shown on the map. The new clearways will replace the existing ‘No Stopping’ and ‘No Parking’ restrictions on Church Street, between James Ruse Drive and Victoria Road, and the existing bus lanes on Church Street will continue to operate with no changes. What is a clearway? A clearway is a section of road where stopping and parking is not allowed during the times shown on the clearway sign. Clearways are put on key arterial roads where traffic is often heavy and congested. They help keep vehicles moving by making all lanes available to motorists. The only exception is the stopping of buses and taxis dropping off or picking up passengers as well as emergency vehicles.

It became known as the Tank Stream. By 1811 it dams south of Sydney was hardly fit for drinking. Water was then drawn from wells or carted from a creek running into Rushcutter’s Bay. The Tank Stream was still the main water supply until 1826. In this whole-day tour by car you will see the major dams, canals and pipelines that provide water to Sydney. Some of these works still in use were built around 1880. The round trip tour from Sydney is around 350 km., all on good roads and motorway.

  • Heathcote Ridge - Site of State Significance Submission to NSW Department of Planning & Infrastructure Dec 2011
    Appendix A Sutherland Shire Council’s Response to: Heathcote Ridge - Site of State Significance Submission to NSW Department of Planning & Infrastructure Dec 2011 This submission includes the consideration of all issues contained in the Director General's Requirements, as well as of additional issues arising from the assessment of this proposal that are of particular concern. The structure of the following sections of the report is based on the numbering and headings system used in the Director General's Requirements. Sustainability Criteria for New Land Release 1. Assessment against the ‘Sustainability Criteria for New Land Release’ in the Metropolitan Strategy and provide justification of listing the site on the Metropolitan Development Program. When evaluated against the State’s ‘Measureable Explanation of Criteria’, the Gandangara Local Aboriginal Land council (GLALC) Heathcote Ridge proposal fails to substantially satisfy the Sustainability Criteria for New Land Release, for the reasons outlined below: Infrastructure The proposed Heathcote Ridge development does not satisfy the requirement that a new land release area must be consistent with “any relevant development strategy, subregional strategy, regional infrastructure strategy and Metropolitan Plan”. This assessment is based on West Menai‘s exclusion from the draft South Subregional Strategy (2007) as a site for residential development. (“There are no major land release areas planned in the South Subregion and most future dwelling growth will be accommodated with existing urban areas” . pg 86). More significantly, the Strategy specifically highlights West Menai’s restricted urban development potential and its capabilities as a ‘Potential Employment Area to be Investigated’. “…much of [West Menai] has environmental significance and its development could impact significantly on adjoining land and be impacted itself from activity on adjoining land such as bushfire and emissions from the waste deposit.

Concrete Slab and Arch Bridges 101 Masonry Bridges Heritage Study of Masonry Bridges in NSW 2005 1 Historical Overview of Bridge Types in NSW: Extract from the Study of Masonry Bridges in NSW HISTORICAL BACKGROUND TO MASONRY BRIDGES IN NSW 1.1 History of early bridges constructed in NSW Bridges constructed prior to the 1830s were relatively simple forms. The majority of these were timber structures, with the occasional use of stone piers. The first bridge constructed in NSW was built in 1788. The bridge was a simple timber bridge constructed over the Tank Stream, near what is today the intersection of George and Bridge Streets in the Central Business District of Sydney. Soon after it was washed away and needed to be replaced. The first "permanent" bridge in NSW was this bridge's successor. This was a masonry and timber arch bridge with a span of 24 feet erected in 1803 (Figure 1.1). However this was not a triumph of colonial bridge engineering, as it collapsed after only three years' service. It took a further five years for the bridge to be rebuilt in an improved form. The contractor who undertook this work received payment of 660 gallons of spirits, this being an alternative currency in the Colony at the time (Main Roads, 1950: 37) Figure 1.1 “View of Sydney from The Rocks, 1803”, by John Lancashire (Dixson Galleries, SLNSW).
