Western Harbour Tunnel Construction via Glebe Port

"Parts of White Bay and Glebe Island are under consideration as potential support areas for the proposed Western Harbour Tunnel.
The areas may be proposed for use on a temporary basis to:
* Stage deliveries and personnel for water-based construction of the harbour crossing;
* handle tunnel spol arriving by barge for trasnfer to road transport;
* construct concrete elements for the Wstern Harbour Tunnel; and
* Transfer a small quantity of sediment from Sydney Harbour to the site for treatment then transport by road for safe disposal"..- source: leaflet dropped in Annandale Letterboxes about 11 May 2018

3D Scanning of the Facade of the former Methodist Church on Johnston Street

sandstone church with two people walking along path

More about the Church. Image from SLNSW Collections

Dr Jack Barton, the Outreach Manager Geospatial Research Innovation and Development at UNSW and his team are doing a 3D scan of the amazing facade of the former Methodist Church at 81 Johnston Street, Annandale. The facade has deteriorated significantly in recent years.

The carved sandstone was originally part of the Bull Warehouse in the city. The warehouse burnt down and the black marks can still be seen in the facade. The parts of the facade were transferred to Annandale and reused in the facade of the Church. More at Methodist (now Uniting) Church, 81 Johnston Street

Philip Drew has researched the history of the facade. See Eco-Annandale 2015, THE MYSTERY OF THOMAS WRAN'S ANNANDALE SCULPTURES and Thomas Vallance Wran : the Annandale sculptures 1873-74 / Philip Drew.

Buruwan Picnic

NoW Annandale are organising a "farewell picnic" for Buruwan Park 4-5pm Sunday 10th March 2019.

Come along and let the NSW Government, Westconnex and RMS know that you know that they are destroying a precious park, trees and habitat the the community has worked on for over 25 years.

Rally Buruwan Park, 15 Feb 2018

Council has put up corflutes in the park to inform the hundreds of pedestrians, cyclists, light rail and bus passengers who use the park every day.
The RMS is yet to advise how pedestrians and cyclists will get to work, school and everywhere else they go via the park during construction and operation of the proposed road widening of the Crescent Annandale as part of Westconnex Stage 3.
There is an issue of trees being destroyed and increased heat island affect as well as over 25 years of Bush regeneration by volunteers.

A good time to email state and federal MPs, the Minister for Transport, the Minister for Planning, the Minster for the Environment and the Premier.

15 September 2019 at 2.30pm
A concert of identity, balance and harmony. Presenting the string quartets of cutting-edge American composer, Jennifer Higdon, alongside masters Haydn, Shostakovich and Tchaikovsky. Music from a time when life seemed straightforward, from deceptively simple arrangements to more complex structures that assign parts equal importance. Music to release a woman driven by a man to acts of insanity, music that liberates closet homosexuality and unacceptance, and melodies that brought Tolstoy to tears amid depression. What positive can come from this? Some of the best chamber music ever written. Music to free the soul. More at Phoenix Collective Concert

Proposed modification

A new elevated vehicular overpass (‘The Crescent overpass’) that would allow eastbound traffic heading north on The Crescent from Annandale to bypass the signalised intersection at The Crescent / City West Link junction and continue east on The Crescent towards Victoria Road and the Anzac Bridge
Modifications to the eastbound lanes of the City West Link and The Crescent on either side of the intersection and northbound lanes on The Crescent at Annandale to provide space for the tie-in of The Crescent overpass
Upgrades to the intersection of The Crescent / Johnston Street / Chapman Road (including lane reconfiguration and marking, signal phasing, adjusting positions of traffic signals kerb works etc.)
Realignment of the Pedestrian and Cycling Green Link (‘green link’) to the west of The Crescent, providing a connection between the Rozelle Rail Yards and the Rozelle Bay light rail stop
A new shared user path bridge (‘shared user path bridge’) spanning The Crescent to the east of The Crescent / City West Link intersection. The shared user path bridge would provide a connection between the Rozelle Rail Yards and the at grade surface connection (the ‘shared user path’) to Bicentennial Park along the east side of The Crescent adjacent to Rozelle Bay. The shared user path bridge and shared user path would provide the pedestrian and cyclist connectivity required by Conditions E120 and E121 for the project albeit in a different arrangement to that shown in the EIS
Minor changes to the layout of the approach roads leading to the Anzac Bridge from Victoria Road, The Crescent and the Rozelle Interchange to improve traffic merging arrangements
Use of a minor construction ancillary facility, established in accordance with Condition C24, as a construction ancillary facility. The proposed C6a construction ancillary facility site would be located on the south side of The Crescent to the west of James Craig Road and adjacent to Rozelle Bay. The proposed modification would allow use of the site for a limited number of additional purposes which are not permitted by Condition C24 including:
− Light vehicle parking for workers (around 9 spaces) and
− Material laydown areas and a limited number of associated vehicle movements (small delivery vans and rigid trucks).

M4 - M5 Rozelle Interchange

Buruwan Park Rally for the Trees

A map showing the location of works at Buruwan Park during September is provided below. plan
Larger Image

plan Larger Image

If you haven’t already heard RMS have released a modification to the M4-M5 Rozelle Interchange which will now include a new car overpass at The Crescent and significant changes to the promised pedestrian and cyclist access routes.

The Crescent overpass and active transport links Modification will remove the continuous GreenLink connecting Rozelle across the City-West Link to the foreshore. The Greenlink was designed to safely reconnect Innerwest communities and provide direct access to the water.

There seem to be a number of significant impacts to our community and how we safely access the foreshore from Annandale, Lilyfield and Rozelle - even Forest Lodge and Glebe.

RMS are asking for feedback and it is the only opportunity to push them to look at alternate options and reinstate safe, direct access as in the approved GreenLink. We need all residents, community groups, clubs and interested groups to make a submission by Wednesday 18 September. You can do this electronically or writing to the DPIE.

Identified impacts for residents and commuters in the Innerwest wanting to access the foreshore and its facilities.

There will be significantly reduced safety and increased risk with removed pedestrian and cyclists access above The Crescent to Bicentennial Park.
Unsafe and indirect access across five sets of pedestrian lights at The Crescent to reach the foreshore/railyards. The part Greenlink and concrete plaza at Rozelle Bay light rail still require you to cross at the five sets of lights on The Crescent.
Removal of direct active links to the foreshore (including the new skatepark and kids playground), cutting our communities off from the foreshore and the proposed revitalisation of the entire Bays Precinct.
The proposed modification has no updated Urban Design and Landscape Plan (or peer review ). The original EIS had both. The modification considerably changes the design intent of the approved EIS design.
Traffic changes that limit movements around the suburb and create further congestion in the local streets of Annandale, Forest Lodge, Glebe, Lilyfield and Rozelle with no planning to deal with these but pushing them back on to Council.

We are asking you to now spread the word to your neighbours, to your colleagues, to your clubs, to your networks, to your friends - and ask people to read the information.

From Rozelle Interchange Work notification | 28 August 2019:

"4.0 Preparation work at Buruwan Park
As part of the upgrade of the intersection of The Crescent and City West Link the area within Buruwan Park will become part of the new road. New cyclist and pedestrian connections will be established as part of the permanent design, as well as a land bridge to the up to 10-hectare park within the Rail Yards. Work will begin in September to prepare for future construction within the park and activities include:

setting up a safe work area with fencing and site-specific environmental controls

tree clearing and vegetation removal

design investigation work

utility relocation work

Access to the Rozelle Bay light rail station from Bayview Crescent will be maintained at all times. Pedestrian and cyclist access through Buruwan Park will be maintained until the end of this year and traffic control will be in place when we are working, to assist pedestrians and cyclists throughout these changes.

2.0 Site establishment work
Work continues to establish the sites and equipment we will need to construct the project. In September we begin installing the site facilities and amenities including offices and sheds, fencing and noise walls. Some permanent parking removal took effect on local streets in July and as our work progresses, further temporary and permanent parking removal will be required on local streets. Site establishment activities include:

installation of site fencing, scaffolding, noise walls, retaining walls, hoarding, access points and traffic barriers

installation of signage and relocation of street lighting poles

internal clearing within buildings and removal of contaminated materials

demolition of buildings and removal of structures

utility installation, disconnections and protections

earth and concrete work to level the sites and to build hard surface areas which includes footpaths and foundations for tunnel acoustic sheds along with spoil removal.

installation of site sheds and offices, worker facilities, parking and environmental controls including sealing of storage areas

building foundations (piling) to support construction of temporary noise barriers, fencing tunnel access ramps and acoustic sheds

clearing trees and vegetation within and around our sites including Buruwan Park, Victoria Road, City West Link, The Crescent"

removal of medians and pavement work along City West Link and The Crescent

5 September: Mark Isaacs & Phil Stack
Both mainstays of the Sydney jazz scene over many years, Mark and Phil had rarely played together.
That all changed recently when Phil moved to the Sydney water and bush suburb in which Mark has lived for over a quarter of a century, and yelled out a warm hello from his car as Mark was on his brisk morning walk. This routine soon morphed into playing together in each other’s homes as near-neighbours and mutual admirers of the other’s music. Bassist Phil Stack was awarded first place in the 2008 National Jazz Awards and toured for many years with James Morrison and other distinguished jazz artists, as well as leading the Phil Stack Trio. He is also the founding mainstay bass guitarist of the well-known pop rock band Thirsty Merc, and writes and performs his original songs for his own solo project.
Mark Isaacs is an esteemed composer, pianist and conductor in classical music and jazz. He’s written symphonies and concertos, plays classical piano and has performed or recorded with some of the biggest names in international jazz including Roy Haynes, Dave Holland, Kenny Wheeler and Vinnie Colaiuta as well as touring his home-grown Resurgence band. Mark is also a songwriter.
Mark and Phil will be playing tunes that they both love from the standard repertoire, whether swinging, ballads, Latin, groove or anything in between. Free For All
This will be the last Free For All for a month. Come down and play something you've never played before, sing something you've never sung before, dance something you've never danced before. There will be more FFA in October, I'll let you know.

Parliamentary Inquiry Reports

Damning Report into Westconnex and dissent over inconsistent recommendations and findings.

Finding 2: That the NSW Government failed to subject the WestConnex project to a comprehensive independent assurance process during the development of the first business case for the project.

Finding 3: That the NSW Government was not required to consider the full range of costs in the business case for the WestConnex project, including costs to public health, amenity, biodiversity, extra road building, and losses to public transport.

Finding 4: That the NSW Government failed to adequately consider alternative options at the commencement of the WestConnex project. This failure has undermined the justification for the project and has exacerbated community opposition.

Finding 5: That the transparency arrangements pertaining to the WestConnex business case have been unsatisfactory.

Finding 9:That, given the Sydney Gateway project was a key part of the original rationale and business case for the WestConnex project, its removal from the WestConnex project will likely have led to a significant change in the cost-benefit ratio for the entire project.
Recommendation 4:That the NSW Government immediately publish the base-case financial model for the WestConnex project.

Recommendation 10:That the NSW Government proceed with Stage 3 of the WestConnex .

Recommendation 11: That the NSW Government immediately publish a full account of all costs to be incurred by NSW taxpayers if Stage 3 contracts were cancelled.

Recommendation 6: That the NSW Government ensure that the Audit Office of New South Wales has the resources required to undertake a detailed and comprehensive performance audit of the WestConnex project in 2019/2020.

Dissenting Report and Statement

The show must not go on!

Dissenting Report Ms Cate Faehrmann MLC, The Greens:
"This has been an extremely important inquiry and the final committee report details a litany of failures by the NSW Government in the delivery of the WestConnex project which have had a real and lasting negative impact on people’s lives, have eroded public trust and had significant costs for taxpayers."

"1. WestConnex should never have been approved or built"
"Finding: That the NSW Government should have invested the public funds spent on the WestConnex project on improving public transport, including for western Sydney."
"Finding: That the separation of the Sydney Gateway Project from the WestConnex project was an attempt by the NSW Government to hide further WestConnex project cost increases."

"Finding: That if the full range of costs were adequately considered, and if the cost blow outs and scope changes were taken into account, it is probable that an updated business case for the WestConnex would not have a positive cost-benefit ratio."

Dissenting Statement, The Hon Daniel Mookhey MLC and The Hon Greg Donnelly MLC, Australian Labor Party<
"WestConnex promised much - Port Botany would directly connect with Sydney’s major arterial roads. Traffic would be taken from neighbourhood roads. Travel times would shorten; air quality rules, the world’s best; tolls, modest. Premiers O’Farrell, Baird and Berijiklian said: judge them, and the project, by these standards. How is Westconnex faring? This inquiry says...badly.

Westconnex is costing taxpayers more and delivering less."

Electric Buses on 470 and 433 Bus Routes

THE SPECS
The total battery capacity on the vehicle is 328kW. The Gemilang-bodied, BYD electric chassis buses use around 80kW per hour; however, the vehicle also regenerates approximately 30-40 per cent of its battery capacity through braking, depending on traffic conditions.

ELECTRIC BUS ROUTES
The following routes have been chosen due to their close proximity to Leichhardt depot, so that operations and performance can be closely monitored during the trial:
* Route 389 – Bondi Junction to Pyrmont
* Route 431 – Glebe Point to City (Martin Place)
* Route 433 – Balmain to Railway Square
* Route 447 – Lilyfield to Leichhardt Marketplace (loop service)
* Route 470 – Lilyfield to City (Martin Place)

Westconnex forces Swadlings to move

"“We opened for trade in St Peters on the seventh,” says Swadling, with a touch of understandable pride. It took three weeks of almost constant work: the hardware store and shed racks were ready, but none of the outside racks had been built, so Swadlings used the mill space to store all the timber and unpacked it over January/February as they built the sheds. “We put our fastest movers in the first shed, our second-fastest in the second shed and the slower-moving ones in the last shed we built,” says Swadling.
Regular customers weren’t aware of the juggle – orders were filled as usual and even special order moulding profiles were cut at the family’s other store in Annandale. The St Peters milling facility will soon be operating, which will improve the already quick service..."

Annandale NSW was historically bounded by Rozelle Bay (Port Jackson/Sydney Harbour), Parramatta Road, Johnston's Creek and White's Creek. However, in 1995, the Annandale boundary was extended across Johnston's Creek to include the part of Camperdown, bounded by Booth Street, Mallet Street and Parramatta Road.
