The document provides a 40-year vision for mobility developed with the Greater Sydney Commission, the Department of Planning and Environment and Infrastructure NSW. The Strategy, among other priorities, includes services to regional NSW and Infrastructure Plans aimed at renewing regional connectivity.

    Liveable ● Affordable ● Connected ● Smart Cities Urban Development Institute of Australia New South Wales Friday, 29 January 2021 Corridor Investigation Office PO BOX K659 Haymarket NSW 1240 Via email: [email protected] UDIA NSW Submission on the options for the Outer Sydney Orbital at Appin Dear Corridor Investigation Office, The Urban Development Institute of Australia NSW (UDIA) is the leading industry body representing the interests of the urban development sector. UDIA represents over 500 member companies that are directly involved in across the industry including developers, consultants (engineering, planning, legal, environmental, design) and local government, for the goal of Liveable, Affordable & Connected Smart Cities. UDIA has a keen interest in the proposed Outer Sydney Orbital project (the OSO) which we regard as a major city shaping initiative that will provide improved road and rail freight access in Greater Western Sydney (GWS) and beyond the metropolitan region. UDIA supports improving regional road links between GWS and the Illawarra Shoalhaven, which forms part of the UDIA’s regional strategy titled “Unblocking the Illawarra-Shoalhaven Strategy 2019-20” (Refer to Attachment No.1). However, we contend that Transport for NSW (TfNSW) must assess all potential road options, assess all key issues impacting current and future markets, and share that analysis with stakeholders before a final option is recommended. This approach will provide greater support for the final outcome and help key stakeholders including the community, landholders and local councils determine their response and longer-term aspirations for the OSO at Appin. In order to remove the uncertainty that is already impacting on the region, we recommend that TfNSW consider the following issues as a matter of urgency before a final option is recommended to link the Illawarra Shoalhaven to the OSO at Douglas Park, which is being delivered in Stage 1.
