Introduction The Land Use and Infrastructure Implementation Plan (the M2 interim Plan) for the Greater Parramatta Priority Growth Area (growth area) has been developed by the Department of Epping Planning and Environment (the Department), in collaboration with the City of Parramatta (CoP) and Greater Sydney Commission (GSC). The primary purpose of the interim Carlingford Plan is to develop a land use framework to guide the future Macquarie Park redevelopment of the growth area to meet the 20 year jobs and housing targets in the Draft West Central District Plan 7 Eastwood and to identify and plan for the infrastructure required to PARRAMATTA Telopea unlock its potential.

    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.

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.

We acknowledge the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples as the First Peoples of Australia. Cumberland City Council also acknowledges other Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples living and working in the Cumberland Local Government Area. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF PARTICIPANTS Cumberland City Council would like to acknowledge and thank everyone who participated in this research. This report would not have been possible without your time and willingness to share your stories and experiences. Document Set ID: 8005199 Version: 9, Version Date: 13/08/2020 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report presents findings from research into key transport and mobility challenges for the Cumberland community. This research was conducted between August 2019 and April 2020 and is grounded in empirical data sourced from the Australian Bureau of Statistics and Transport for NSW, amongst other sources, and extensive community engagement. Quality transport options are fundamental to accessing many essential services, education, employment and social and recreational activities. Although three train lines run through the Cumberland LGA, in addition to the T80 high frequency bus route, many Cumberland residents still have difficulties getting around. Major barriers raised by the community relate to reliability, frequency and coverage of services.
