Submissions and Preferred Infrastructure Report SYDENHAM TO BANKSTOWN SUBMISSIONS AND PREFERRED INFRASTRUCTURE REPORT > Appendix I – Archaeological assessment and research design report Sydney Metro City & Southwest Sydenham to Bankstown Upgrade - AARD Sydney Metro City & Southwest Sydenham to Bankstown Upgrade Historical Archaeological Assessment & Research Design Report to Transport for NSW June 2018 Page i Sydney Metro City & Southwest Sydenham to Bankstown Upgrade - AARD EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Note on this report Since the preparation of this Archaeological Assessment and Research Design (AARD), the project has been revised (the preferred project). Although some subsurface impacts may be reduced, the assessment of archaeological potential and relevant management outlined in this AARD would remain the same. Project Background The proposed Sydney Metro City & Southwest Sydenham to Bankstown project (the project) is the subject of this Archaeological AARD. The project involves upgrading the 10 existing stations from Marrickville to Bankstown (inclusive), and the 13 kilometre long section of the Sydney Trains T3 Bankstown Line between west of Sydenham Station and west of Bankstown Station, to improve accessibility for customers and enable conversion of the line to metro standards. The project would enable Sydney Metro to operate beyond Sydenham, to Bankstown. The environmental impact statement (EIS) identified the potential for archaeological constraints and the need for the preparation of an AARD for the Bankstown Line and specific station catchments and construction sites. This AARD has been prepared to comply with mitigation measure NAH10. Sections of the project area, including Punchbowl, Wiley Park, Hurlstone Park, Campsie and Bankstown Stations and other locations which were not assessed as having potential for significant archaeological remains are not dealt with separately in this AARD, but are included as part of the Bankstown Line assessment. These sites will be managed in accordance with the Unexpected Finds Procedure. The following sections of the project that are considered in this report are: x Bankstown Line x Marrickville Station Catchment x Canterbury Station Catchment and construction site x Belmore Station Catchment x Lakemba Station Catchment Archaeological Management The sites have been divided into archaeological management zones based on archaeological potential and current construction impacts (as submitted with the EIS). Archaeological management zone mapping (Section 8.3) is based on a traffic light code: x Red (Zone 1): Direct impact to significant archaeology. Archaeological investigation required prior to any construction impacts (bulk excavation etc.). Prepare Archaeological Method Statement (AMS) once construction methodology and impacts are known. x Amber (Zone 2): Potential impact to significant archaeology. Prepare Archaeological Method Statement (AMS) once construction methodology and impacts are known. Archaeological investigation is likely required. Page ii Sydney Metro City & Southwest Sydenham to Bankstown Upgrade - AARD x Green (Zone 3): Unlikely to contain significant archaeology. Construction to proceed with Unexpected Finds Procedure as nil-low potential for significant archaeological remains. Archaeological Mitigation The following table presents a summary of the archaeological management and impact mitigation for the project. The summary is based on detailed analysis presented in this report and is illustrated in the archaeological management maps in Section 8.

It is a largely off-road facility that runs from Homebush Bay in the west to Botany Bay in the east. Jamieson Foley, Sustainable Transport Consultants and The Environment Works were engaged by the Cooks River Foreshores Working Group to study the pathway and identify safety, access and other issues with a view to developing a strategy for the improvement of the walking and cycling environment. This report presents the pathway development strategy and is based on the findings of two previous reports by the study team, including a formal road safety audit and an issues and options paper.
