The description needs to provide a concise, but clear description of the initiative’s scope. (approx 3 paragraphs) A motorway connection, mainly in tunnel, from the eastern end of the Western Freeway (M4) at North Strathfield to the western outskirts of the Sydney CBD and the road network near Sydney Airport. It would link M4 to the eastern section of the Sydney Orbital via the Cross City Tunnel and Sydney Harbour Bridge. The eastern section of the M4 (east of Parramatta) would be widened/upgraded. A twin tube tunnel is proposed from North Strathfield to just south of Campbell Road at St Peters with connections to the City West Link at Lilyfield/Rozelle and Parramatta Road/Broadway at Glebe/ Chippendale. A bus only connection at Parramatta Road, Haberfield is also possible. A further tunnel is proposed to connect Victoria Road near Gladesville Bridge to the main tunnel in the Leichhardt area. There is a proposed surface motorway link from just south of Campbell Road to the road network around Sydney Airport probably connecting to Canal Road and Qantas Drive (the latter subject to M5 East Expansion planning and Sydney Airport Corp Ltd agreement) with a potential link to M5 at Arncliffe.

  • EPISODE 61 SUBURB SPOTLIGHT on GLADESVILLE Marcus
    EPISODE 61 SUBURB SPOTLIGHT ON GLADESVILLE Marcus: Good morning and welcome to another episode of the Sydney property inside podcast, your weekly podcast series that talks about all things property related in the city of Sydney. Michelle, how are you doing this fine morning? Michelle: Good, how are you? Marcus: Very very well. So today, we are going to back to one of our series which is the Suburbs Spotlight series and today, we're focused on Gladesville. Michelle: I know Gladesville. I know it well, I used to live there for a long time, actually. Marcus: Oh did you, I didn't know? Oh wow. Michelle: Yeah, I did. Marcus: 'Cause I personally don't know that much about Gladesville so this was certainly interesting reading for myself. Michelle: Yeah, Gladesville is a really interesting suburb. For those of you who don't know where it is, it's on the lower North Shore, northern suburbs of Sydney although sometimes it's counted as being part of the Inner West now, too. So it's situated on the northern banks of the Parramatta river and it's next to Hunters Hill to the northeast and Boronia Park to the north, with Ryde to the western side of it. It's approximately 10 Ks from the city and it's placed in between the local government area of the City of Ryde and the municipality of Hunters Hill. Michelle: So it's really got a very rich history, most of which I found on the dictionary of Sydney which is a fantastic website with lots of information about the history of different suburbs.

    Submission #2508 - Parramatta Light Rail (Stage 1) - Westmead to Carlingford, via Parramatta CBD Title of Proposal - Parramatta Light Rail (Stage 1) - Westmead to Carlingford, via Parramatta CBD Section 1 - Summary of your proposed action Provide a summary of your proposed action, including any consultations undertaken. 1.1 Project Industry Type Transport - Land 1.2 Provide a detailed description of the proposed action, including all proposed activities. The proposed action for the purpose of this Referral comprises the first stage of the proposed Parramatta Light Rail network, comprising an alignment from Westmead to Carlingford, via Parramatta CBD in addition to the development of a stabling and maintenance facility at Camellia. Proposed action key features The proposed action would include the provision and operation of the following key features: - A light rail network of around 12 kilometres in length (including approximately seven kilometres within the existing road corridor separated from general traffic and approximately five kilometres utilising the existing Carlingford Line heavy rail and Sandown Line for use as light rail corridors and replacing current heavy rail services). - A total of 16 stops (subject to further design development). The stops would form a combination of side and island platforms depending on the final design of the proposed action and existing constraints at each stop location. Platforms would be approximately 45 metres long. - Interchanges with existing rail, bus and/or ferry service facilities at Westmead, Parramatta CBD and Carlingford. - Creation of two light rail and pedestrian zones (no general vehicle access) along Church Street (generally between Lennox Bridge and Macquarie Street) and Macquarie Street (generally between Horwood Place and Smith Street) within the Parramatta CBD.
