Concrete Slab and Arch Bridges 101 Masonry Bridges Heritage Study of Masonry Bridges in NSW 2005 1 Historical Overview of Bridge Types in NSW: Extract from the Study of Masonry Bridges in NSW HISTORICAL BACKGROUND TO MASONRY BRIDGES IN NSW 1.1 History of early bridges constructed in NSW Bridges constructed prior to the 1830s were relatively simple forms. The majority of these were timber structures, with the occasional use of stone piers. The first bridge constructed in NSW was built in 1788. The bridge was a simple timber bridge constructed over the Tank Stream, near what is today the intersection of George and Bridge Streets in the Central Business District of Sydney. Soon after it was washed away and needed to be replaced. The first "permanent" bridge in NSW was this bridge's successor. This was a masonry and timber arch bridge with a span of 24 feet erected in 1803 (Figure 1.1). However this was not a triumph of colonial bridge engineering, as it collapsed after only three years' service. It took a further five years for the bridge to be rebuilt in an improved form. The contractor who undertook this work received payment of 660 gallons of spirits, this being an alternative currency in the Colony at the time (Main Roads, 1950: 37) Figure 1.1 “View of Sydney from The Rocks, 1803”, by John Lancashire (Dixson Galleries, SLNSW).

  • St Pat's Matters
    New Life in Christ Risen Editorial ince the last issue of St Pat’s S Matters the parish’s normal rhythm of life has been astir with out -of-the-ordinary events. First up, was the hosting of the Inaugural Red Mass to mark the beginning of the Law Year. A truly memorable liturgy preceded a most impressive supper afterwards. We did ourselves proud. Then on March 17th there was the double header of celebrating St Patrick’s Day with a Festival, plus the unveiling of a commemorative plaque recognising the first people of the Parramatta area. Aside from these major events, the other pages are packed with many interesting articles, covering a wide range of topics. In ministry we read about the commissioning of our parish SREs and two reflections: one by Michael Hanratty on 30 years as an Acolyte here, the other a farewell by Deacon Willy Limjap as his time of service at the Cathedral draws to a close.

  • Renaissance of Light Rail in Sydney – Key Environmental Challenges, Opportunities and Solutions
    Renaissance of light rail in Sydney – Key environmental challenges, opportunities and solutions David Gainsford (MEIANZ) Transport for NSW Australia [email protected] Paper: Background At its peak, in 1923 Sydney had a 291km tram network that was the largest in Australia and the second largest in the Commonwealth (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trams_in_Sydney). By 1961 all tram lines in Sydney had been demolished and were largely replaced by buses. Figure 1 – Extent of Tramways in Sydney in 1947 (http://www.tundria.com/trams/AUS/Sydney-1947.shtml) 1 In 1997 light rail services began operations in Sydney again with a service between Central and Wentworth Park, extended to Lilyfield in 2000. Most of this line operates on a disused freight rail line. The NSW Government released the ‘Sydney’s Light Rail Future’ document in December 2012 (NSW Government, 2012) which details a renaissance of light rail projects in Sydney. The first new project detailed in this document was opened in March 2014 consisting of the 5.6km Inner West extension to the existing Lilyfield to Central Light Rail line (total length now 12.8km). Planning approval has now been granted to construct the $1.6 billion 12km long CBD and South East Light Rail (CSELR). In June 2014, the NSW Government committed $400 million to the commencement of a Western Sydney Light Rail, centred on Parramatta. Light rail projects are also proposed in Newcastle and in Canberra. Figure 2 - Current and Proposed Sydney Light Rail Network 2 Figure 3 – Potential Parramatta-based Light Rail Alignment Options (http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/newslocal/parramatta/extensive-light-rail- system-will-transform-transport-in-western-sydney/story-fngr8huy-1226958390644) The light rail projects are promoted as providing improved reliability of service and capacity to the denser urban areas that they serve.

  • FLEET STREET HERITAGE PRECINCT an Outstanding Cultural Funding Proposal for Parramatta
    FLEET STREET HERITAGE PRECINCT An outstanding cultural funding proposal for Parramatta A concept paper for discussion and development prepared by NPRAG and advisors June 3 2020 Fleet Street Heritage Precinct Business Case – June 2020 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This proposal to restore and redevelop Parramatta's Fleet Street Heritage Precinct (FSHP) as part of a 30- hectare botanic and heritage public engagement site takes substantial 50,000-year human investment in this precinct and leverages its unique cultural authenticity into a world class cultural experience. Restoring and recycling the significant Heritage Buildings, First Nations' archaeological and living sites and, the enormous public landscape spatial scope of the Park – can be achieved for much less of the real cost of the 'Parramatta Powerhouse' project. This proposal also provides Government with many individual 'shovel ready' projects which provide a series of 'good news' announcements and local employment leading into 2024; mitigating adverse media and public outcry from the current unpopular model which will destroy heritage like Willow Grove, St Georges Terrace, and the Powerhouse at Ultimo and, spending over $1.5 billion on a ‘museum’ the people of Parramatta didn’t ask for. · Two main stages between 2020 and 2023-24 will see the completion and opening of the Fleet Street Heritage Precincts renaissance to include the existing heritage buildings renovated and conserved and complementing the sites already extraordinary existing arcadian land scape qualities. · This will be combined with the new innovative uses and activities associate with multiple venues including the unique signature Museum of NSW integrated and distributed across the site, attracting visitors across NSW and internationally to the Fleet Street Heritage Precinct.
