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. 1 The new and extended clearways will help to As a resident or visitor, what does improve traffic flow and reduce delays by allowing us to tow vehicles that stop illegally or break down. this mean for me?

Project alternatives This section outlines the project development process, examines the possible alternatives to the project and explains the design decisions that have led to the formulation of the preferred project that is the subject of this environmental assessment. Director-General’s Requirements Where addressed Project justification This justification must include an assessment of alternatives considered Chapter 3 demonstrate that the project will enhance the use of public transport Sections 3.1, 9.1 demonstrate that the project will not unduly induce traffic and exacerbate congestion in Sections 3.1, 9.1 the medium to longer term within the adjoining subregions The assessment must specifically address how the proposed park and ride facility will Section 3.1.3 enhance public transport patronage, including a cost benefit analysis 3.1 Alternatives to the project As demonstrated in Chapter 2 of this report, there is a need to address existing constraints and traffic congestion on the M2 Motorway, as it currently operates as the second most trafficked corridor in Sydney. In its current form, the M2 Upgrade project provides an opportunity to better utilise an existing asset, by adding to it to increase its capacity. A range of alternatives to the M2 Upgrade project were identified and considered as part of the development of the project, including the following: x Alternative one – Do nothing. x Alternative two – Other road based improvement options, including: Line marking to add additional lanes within the existing carriageway. Upgrade of the local sub-arterial and arterial road network. x Alternative three – Provision of public transport – increase provision for public transport within the M2 Motorway catchment.

  • James Ruse Drive Improvements
    To the householder & business operator JUNE 2013 Dear resident/business operator, RE: James Ruse Drive, Rosehill to Clyde – Night work starting Tuesday 2 July 2013 Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) is starting work to improve the flow of traffic on James Ruse Drive from Rosehill to Clyde. This project is part of the NSW Government’s $125 million Pinch Point Program which aims to reduce delays, manage congestion and maintain travel times on Sydney’s main roads during week day peak periods. More information on the James Ruse Drive project can be found at www.rms.nsw.gov.au/roadprojects search ‘James Ruse Drive’. The first stage of work will start on Tuesday 2 July, 2013 and will take about three months to complete, weather permitting. Work involves: • extending the right turn lane from James Ruse Drive southbound to Parramatta Road • extending the right turn lane from James Ruse Drive southbound to Prospect Street. Future stages of work will include an upgrade to the James Ruse Drive/Hassall Street/Grand Avenue intersection and restricting right turns into and out of Hope Street. To minimise traffic disruptions, most of this work will be done at night, Sunday to Friday, from 8pm to 5am. The site compound for this project is located at the Arthur Street Granville M4 viaduct underpass. There will be noise associated with this work, however every effort will be made to minimise the impact of noise on nearby businesses and residents. Please allow extra journey time as delays may occur while work is carried out. The section of road adjacent to the work area will be partially closed during night working hours to ensure road worker and road user safety.

  • Pop-Up Transport Fact Sheet for James Ruse Drive to Elizabeth Street Footbridge, Parramatta Pop-Up Cycleway
    Pop-up transport Fact sheet for James Ruse Drive to Elizabeth Street footbridge, Parramatta pop-up cycleway Pop-up transport overview The NSW Government recognises that more people than ever are walking or bike riding to work, or for leisure and fitness. The NSW Government continues to encourage people to walk and bike ride as part of their everyday commute. We recognise that not only does it help relieve pressure on our roads and public transport system, but walking and bike riding are healthy, active ways of travelling. By continuing to invest in the construction of new cycleways and infrastructure, we help keep people safe while encouraging more individuals to take up these modes of travel. The NSW Government is delivering pop-up transport changes in response to COVID-19. We are working to ensure safe routes for walking, bike riding and exercise, as well as access to workplaces, schools and other services. As a key public health measure, each of the pop-up cycleways has been identified as a strategic priority, which is necessary to facilitate safe bike riding to support travel during the COVID-19 recovery, along routes where there are missing cycleway links, where there is demand for bike riding infrastructure, where there is a recognised route to key employment areas or where there is a recognised hot spot of congestion requiring more transport choices. The pop-up cycleways are being delivered in response to physical distancing requirements and the need to free up capacity on public transport and roads for people who cannot currently ride, due to concerns around safety and missing bike riding links.
