    HISTORY OF KEW DEPOT AND ITS ROUTES Page 1 HISTORY of KEW DEPOT and the ROUTES OPERATED by KEW Compiled and written by Hugh Waldron MCILT CA 1500 The word tram and tramway are derived from Scottish words indicating the type of truck and the tracks used in coal mines. 1807 The first Horse tram service in the world commences operation between Swansea and Mumbles in Wales. 12th September 1854 At 12.20 pm first train departs Flinders Street Station for Sandridge (Port Melbourne) First Steam operated railway line in Australia. The line is eventually converted to tram operation during December 1987 between the current Southbank Depot and Port Melbourne. The first rail lines in Australia operated in Newcastle Collieries operated by horses in 1829. Then a five-mile line on the Tasman Peninsula opened in 1836 and powered by convicts pushing the rail vehicle. The next line to open was on 18/5/1854 in South Australia (Goolwa) and operated by horses. 1864 Leonard John Flannagan was born in Richmond. After graduating he became an Architect and was responsible for being the Architect building Malvern Depot 1910, Kew Depot 1915 and Hawthorn Depot 1916. He died 2nd November 1945. September 1873 First cable tramway in the world opens in Clay Street, San Francisco, USA. 1877 Steam tramways commence. Victoria only had two steam tramways both opened 1890 between Sorrento Pier to Sorrento Back Beach closed on 20th March 1921 (This line also operated horse trams when passenger demand was not high.) and Bendigo to Eaglehawk converted to electric trams in 1903.

    Treating pedestrian and turning vehicle conflicts at signalised intersections The following table provides a brief overview of the treatments and their appropriateness in certain road environments. Table 1: Overview of treatments and their use in certain road environments Table 2: Overview of treatments and their use in certain road environments Treatments to eliminate pedestrian and turning vehicle conflicts at signalised intersections Grade separation of pedestrian crossing Pedestrian overpass Maroondah Highway, Ringwood Brief description Full grade separation of pedestrians, above or below an intersection, eliminates the conflict between motorists and pedestrians at a signalised intersection. A pedestrian overpass or underpass allows pedestrians to cross the road independently of the traffic signals. Potential • At intersections within pedestrian priority areas as defined in the VicRoads SmartRoads locations strategy. • Within central activities areas (including hospital and university campuses) where pedestrian volumes are significant in all directions of the intersection. • Where an at-grade crossing is not desirable or where it is preferred that pedestrians be able to cross the intersection at any time. • Where the intersection is located between public transport nodes (e.g. a connection between a railway station and a bus interchange). • Where pedestrian paths or desire lines already take them over or under the road (e.g., at an elevated railway station). Considerations • The geometry of the overpass / underpass will appropriately cater for the expected volume of pedestrians (and cyclists). • The impact on travel times for users of the grade separated facility - they will not be favourable where the walking distance is more than 50 percent greater than the at-grade distance.
