    Submission Cover Sheet North East Link Project EES IAC 402 Request to be heard?: No, but please email me th Full Name: Phil Turner Organisation: Maroondah City Council Affected property: Attachment 1: Maroondah_Coun Attachment 2: Maroondah_Coun Attachment 3: Comments: To the North East Link Inquiry & Advisory Committee (IAC) Maroondah Council provides the following submission to the IAC, in relation to the EES for the North East Link project. While Council formally supports the objectives of the NEL project, I advise that the support of Maroondah Council has been conditional on appropriate traffic considerations being made with regard to the impact of the project on the Eastlink tunnels, the Ringwood Bypass and by extension the Ringwood Metropolitan Activity Centre. Council previously commissioned a review by O’Brien Traffic that considered the project in the context of the tunnels and impacts on Ringwood, and it was determined that without ancillary works to take traffic pressure off the Eastlink tunnels and the Ringwood Bypass, the project would potentially fail and have a major detrimental impact on the viability of the Ringwood Metropolitan Activity Centre. The O’Brien Traffic report attached to this submission details the basis for those concerns. Council’s concerns were previously forwarded to NELA and Council officers have met with NELA officers on these matters, however, to date Council has not received an appropriate response that addresses these concerns, including within the ESS. In support of this submission, the following documents have also been uploaded: o A submission letter signed by Council’s Mayor Rob Steane documenting the history of Council’s dealings regarding NEL, and outlining Council’s concerns current with the project; o Council Report September 2018; o O’Brien Traffic Review dated 12 September 2017; o Council letter to NELA (26 February 2018) and NELA response (14 March 2018); o Correspondence from Council on Bypass concerns (including technical reports); and o Minutes from MCC / NELA meetings 6 April 2018 and 30 April 2018.

  • Eastlink to Open on 29 June - Five Months Early
    12 May 2008 EASTLINK TO OPEN ON 29 JUNE - FIVE MONTHS EARLY ConnectEast, the owner and operator of EastLink, yesterday confirmed to the Victorian Government that it will deliver the $2.5 billion motorway on 29 June 2008 – on-budget and five months ahead of time. To celebrate the completion of this landmark Public Private Partnership project and to encourage motorist familiarisation, ConnectEast announced the first four weeks of operation will be toll-free. ConnectEast also revealed plans to host a community open day on Sunday 15 June to give people a once-in-a-lifetime chance to walk, run or cycle on the road before it opens to traffic. Managing Director, John Gardiner, said the opening of EastLink (and the untolled Ringwood Bypass) well ahead of the 30 November contract date demonstrated the capacity of the private sector to accelerate the delivery of massive projects. “Over the life of this construction ConnectEast has averaged $59 million expenditure per month, including five consecutive months when expenditure exceeded $100 million,” Mr Gardiner said. “This demonstrates the capacity of the private sector, with the support of government, to harness all the necessary resources to make big infrastructure projects a reality in the shortest possible time. “EastLink is already generating an economic and population boom in Melbourne’s outer east and south-east, with businesses and residents re-locating to make the most of the motorway. “EastLink will mean safer driving plus time and fuel savings every day for many thousands of Victorians. The road will revolutionise the lives of people living and working in Melbourne’s eastern and south-eastern suburbs by providing a high- quality uninterrupted north-south transport corridor from Mitcham to Frankston.

MINERAL RESOURCES DEVELOPMENT BILL Introduction and first reading Received from Assembly. Read first time on motion of Hon. D. R. WHITE (Minister for Industry and Economic Planning). QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE OVERSEAS STUDENTS Hon. M. A. BIRRELL (East Yarra)-I refer the Minister for Education to the statement he made in the House last Thursday, 15 November, when he stated that the reason the Ministry of Education had been advertising for overseas students without legal authority was that it was necessary to make preparations to enrol those students in 1991. I therefore ask: why was it that in September 1989 Ministry of Education officials went to Hong Kong, Taipei, Malaysia, Singapore and Papua New Guinea to recruit students for government schools, when in June 1989 the Minister was informed that the Education Act would have to be amended to allow the enrolment of fee­ paying students in government schools? Hon. B. T. PULLEN (Minister for Education)-As I understand it, as part of the program of preparation in that period the Ministry of Education was making investigations that required contact being made with people overseas. In terms of the current situation it is true that the Education Act in Victoria differs from Acts in other States and requires amendment in order to provide for the full charging of fees, although some charges apply without any change to the legislation being necessary.
