1 Pacific Highway Upgrade New Pic TBC Roads ad Maritime Services is deliverig the biggest ifrastructure ivestmet i NSW history. I the ext five years $15.9 billio will be ivested o projects across the state. Regioal projects will receive $4.8 billio as part of this sigificat commitmet to coectig commuities, supportig growth ad providig safe joureys to help maage a predicted 15 per cet icrease i regioal populatio growth ad a doublig of freight movemets by The agecy is curretly deliverig 28 major projects i regioal commuities with 27 major projects i developmet ad thousads of mior ad maiteace work projects. A key part of this regioal ivestmet is the Pacific Highway upgrade program. The Pacific Highway upgrade is Australia s largest regioal ifrastructure project. It coects Sydey ad Brisbae, ad is a major cotributor to Australia s ecoomic activity. The Australia ad NSW govermets have bee joitly upgradig the Pacific Highway from Hexham to Queeslad sice 1996, ivestig $11.4 billio i this importat upgrade to date. Whe built, it will complete this program of work ad help to realise the substatial ecoomic ad commuity beefits of the overall upgrade program providig a four lae divided highway betwee Sydey ad Brisbae. Curretly 483 kilometres of the Pacific Highway betwee Hexham ad the Queeslad border are ow four lae divided road (74 per cet) ad about 135 kilometres are beig built (20 per cet). This meas three i every four Adam Rodgers Mechaical Egieer 31 Chittaway Road Ourimbah NSW 2258 kilometres travelled is four lae divided highway. The remaiig sectios are about to start major work. There are five projects worth more tha $3.3 billio either beig built or opeed to traffic i the past year betwee Port Macquarie ad Coffs Harbour. The 26 kilometre Frederickto to Eugai project opeed to traffic i May 2016, the Nambucca Heads to Uruga project opeed i July 2016 ad i September this year the 14 kilometre Kempsey to Kudabug sectio of the upgrade progressively opeed to traffic. The 23 kilometre sectio betwee Oxley Highway ad Kudabug ad 19.5 kilometres betwee Warrell Creek ad Nambucca Heads is ow ope to traffic. Of the remaiig 155 kilometres of highway beig upgraded betwee Woolgoolga ad Ballia, the 12 kilometre Halfway Creek to Gleugie sectio opeed to traffic i August this year. The 14 kilometre sectio betwee Woolgoolga ad Halfway Creek is expected to ope before the ed of the year with the fial sectios betwee Gleugie ad Ballia opeig to traffic by The highway upgrade has created job opportuities for regioal commuities o the orth coast.

2 I 2019 there will be uprecedeted progress o the Pacific Highway upgrade as it speeds towards completio by Work will peak early ext year, with 3700 people expected to be directly workig o the upgrade, resultig i 9900 idirect jobs. Travel time savigs is aother beefit, particularly for the freight idustry. A jourey betwee Newcastle ad the Queeslad border i the mid 1990s oce took ie hours to complete. This same jourey will take less tha seve hours whe the upgrade is complete i Those drivig the legth of the Pacific Highway are already savig more tha a hour ad three quarters i travel time. These upgrades will improve safety ad esure motorists sped more time with their families ad less time travellig. Sice work started o the Pacific Highway, the umber of fatal crashes has halved, reducig to about 20 crashes aually i recet years. The opeig of four lae divided highway betwee Port Macquarie ad Gleugie i the secod half of 2017 ad early 2018 helped cotiue this tred through divided laes ad improved road surfaces. The Pacific Highway upgrade is more tha just a road ad has already trasformed this part of the NSW orth coast cotributig to sigificat regioal growth, icludig direct jobs o the highway but also secodary beefits to local services, tourism ad ecoomic developmet. The highway is used as a local road coectig regioal commuities ad the upgraded highway meas the separatio betwee local slower traffic ad high speed through traffic, icludig safer local access. The Pacific Highway upgrade is ot oly sigificat because of its size ad scale, it traverses some of the most diverse ad evirometally sesitive ladscapes. It crosses several major river systems ad flood plais, coastal rages, travels through forests ad adjois marie parks. The desig ad egieerig has bee created to be sesitive to this eviromet. It is held as a global bechmark i iovatio ad is pushig the boudaries i how roads ca be built, deliverig a legacy for Australia.

I Jue 2017 project was the first Pacific Highway upgrade to trial yellow lies, aimed at helpig motorists more easily idetify work zoes. Yellow lies have replaced white lies o a 1.2 kilometre sectio of the upgrade south of the Harwood Bridge ear Yamba. Based o the success of the trial, yellow lie markig has also recetly bee istalled o about 2.3 kilometres of the highway at Chatsworth Islad. The yellow lies highlight the differece betwee drivig alog the existig Pacific Highway ad drivig through a work zoe where chages icludig temporarily movig traffic to service roads, icreased use of cocrete barriers ad reduced speed zoes may be i place. The trial is beig moitored with photos, dashcam footage ad a survey to uderstad if the high visibility markigs ecourage motorists to slow dow i work zoes ad therefore improve safety. NSW Miister for Roads, Maritime ad Freight Melida Pavey, Member for Clarece Chris Gulaptis ad Director Pacific Highway Project Office Bob Higgis at the lauch of VSLS Woolgoolga to Ballia project vehicles are restricted to 80 kilometres a hour or less o some local roads to help maage safety ad dust. Moitorig systems have bee fitted i vehicles, allowig them to be tracked for locatio ad speed as they travel through local commuities. A umber of roads are also beig built to eable the highway upgrade to be safely delivered while keepig traffic movig through the roadwork zoes. I September 2016, BMD Group was awarded the cotract to deliver six temporary ad permaet diversio roads ext to the highway betwee Maclea ad Devils Pulpit. This key eablig work will provide temporary laes at Yamba, Harwood, Garrets Lae, Iluka, Chatsworth South ad Chatsworth North. All six diversio roads are expected to be completed by early ext year, weather permittig. Yellow lie trial south of Harwood The secod of these iitiatives was lauched i mid September, whe electroic variable speed limit sigs started operatig o a 3.5 kilometre sectio of the Pacific Highway south of Broadwater providig motorists with a improved drivig experiece through roadwork zoes. The highway speed limit is reistated out of costructio work hours to provide more cosistet ad appropriate speed zoes. Previously, this has ivolved workers maually chagig the sigs uder traffic cotrol. The ew trailer mouted variable speed limit sigs improve worker safety by alterig speed limits remotely. This improves reliability ad efficiecy, which is key for our importat freight ad logistics idustry ad reduces frustratio for other motorists.

8 CONNECTIVITY STRATEGY Roads coect huma commuities ad support the ecoomic growth of NSW. However, roads ad traffic also have the potetial to impact wildlife coectivity by creatig a barrier to movemet ad causig wildlife mortality. This ca affect idividual aimals, populatios ad/or ecological commuities. The Woolgoolga to Ballia project team has developed a faua coectivity strategy to demostrate how impacts from the project o the movemet of key threateed aimal species ad other aimal species will be mitigated ad is part of the overall biodiversity mitigatio framework. The pla was approved by the NSW Departmet of Plaig ad Eviromet ad the Australia Departmet of Eviromet ad Eergy. This approval was a critical step i esurig project timelies were maitaied for major buildig work ad istallig wildlife crossigs. There has bee ogoig cosultatio with govermet agecies ad stakeholders throughout the project s developmet phase. Extesive ecological surveys ad detailed desig have helped iform the wildlife coectivity solutios adopted. The fial strategy is the result of early three years of work by the Roads ad Maritime ad Pacific Complete teams. Key wildlife crossigs, icludig bridges, culverts, fecig, wideed media, ad aerial crossigs alog this legth of highway iclude: About 50 dedicated wildlife crossigs About 70 combied wildlife crossigs More tha 270 icidetal wildlife crossigs alog the 155 kilometre legth betwee Woolgoolga ad Ballia. All of these measures are part of the Woolgoolga to Ballia project s commitmet to the ogoig safe movemet of local wildlife uder or over the ew highway ow ad i the future. Key wildlife species which will beefit from this work iclude the Bush-tailed Phascogale, Log osed Potoroo, Rufous Bettog, Spotted-tailed Quoll, Yellow-bellied Glider, Squirrel Glider, Koala, Large-eared Pied Bat, Little Betwig Bat, Easter Betwig Bat, Large-footed Myotis, Coastal Emu, Gree-thighed Frog, Wallum Sedge Frog ad Oxleya Pygmy Perch. The Oxleya Pygmy Perch (OPP) is a tiy edagered fish livig uder the ew ad old bridges at Tabbimoble Creek i the Maclea to Devils Pulpit sectio of the upgrade. Efforts to stabilise the baks ad creek bed which had bee damaged by cattle use i OPP habitat has bee made possible because of a collaborative effort betwee Pacific Complete, Roads ad Maritime, Evirometal Protectio Authority, Davbridge Pty Ltd ad NSW Departmet of Primary Idustry ad Fisheries. These tiy fish measure betwee 3.5 ad 6 cetimetres i size. The fish spaw betwee October ad April whe water temperatures exceed 20 degrees celsius i waterways of uique, lowlad coast wallum heaths. This small fish is particularly sesitive to fluctuatios i ph levels, so cotrollig water ru-off from the workig site ito the earby creeks is critically importat.

The secod major bridge of the upgrade, the bridge over the Richmod River at Broadwater will be about oe kilometre log. These two major bridges will be delivered uder desig ad build cotracts by Accioa Ferrovial Joit Veture ad Ledlease Egieerig Pty Ltd, respectively. As bridge buildig is a sigificat part of the upgrade, the majority are beig delivered through seve specific cotracts, which was idetified as the best way to provide public value. Other bridges will be delivered as part of the mai civil work packages. A key outcome of the desig refiemet process was a icrease i the umber of bridges beig built for the project from about 40 to 170, with may culverts beig replaced with bridges. The umber ad legth of waterway opeigs has icreased to aid the flow of floodwater away from urba cetres ad agricultural lad. The ew highway will deliver immediate beefits i terms of flood immuity.

The 180 toe crae o board will be used to excavate the pile casigs. The two barges for the Richmod River bridge are yet to arrive o site. Major bridges The bridge over the Clarece River at Harwood will be a 1.5 kilometre log, four lae divided bridge, about 20 metres east of the existig Harwood Bridge. Over the river, there is a 30 metre avigatioal clearace i the cetre of the bridge. The ew bridge will have 36 spas supported by 35 piers - 13 i the Clarece River ad 22 o lad. The spas are made up of 144 cocrete girders, weighig about 168 toes each. At the ed of September, 34 piles were i place for the ew bridge over the Clarece River at Harwood. The bridge over Richmod River at Broadwater will be about 980 metres log ad is a elevated structure about 6.5 metres at its lowest poit ad risig to about 13 metres at the poit where it crosses the existig Pacific Highway. Over the river, each avigatioal spa is a miimum clearace of 35 metres wide ad 15 metres high. The ew bridge will have 26 spas supported by 25 piers, ie i the river ad 16 o lad, with a typical spa legth of about 38 metres with ie girders per spa for a total of 234 Super T girders. Girder istall Five barges are beig used to deliver the two logest bridges of the upgrade. The barges ad the craes they support will help to istall bridge foudatios, build bridge piers ad istall bridge superstructure segmets such as girders. The Rebecca Lily, Leoora ad Aquila are based at the ew bridge over the Clarece River at Harwood while two barges will be used for the ew bridge over the Richmod River at Broadwater. Rebecca Lily is 55 metres log by 25 metre wide barge ad was mobilised from Sigapore i May this year. The 300 toe crae she carries is helpig with marie pilig.

Pacifico Harwood will provide 144 U-girders from their precast plat at Harwood. Co-Tec, Brisbae will provide 21 plaks ad 21 Super T girders for the Tabbimoble bridges. These quatities are i additio to the 624 plaks ad 145 Super Ts already istalled i the Woolgoolga to Gleugie sectio of the upgrade. A importat iovatio developed through collaboratio betwee Roads ad Maritime Services ad the Pacific Complete team was the desig of a precast wiged plak, which will be used extesively o the project. About 2300 wiged plaks will be used to build more tha 100 bridges for the upgrade. The Roadbuilder - 29

13 The plaks improve safety ad save moey. Normal bridge plaks have 30 cetimetre gaps betwee them but the Woolgoolga to Ballia project team is usig a plak with a precast wig that spas the gap, elimiatig the safety hazard ad reducig the umber of plaks eeded to build each bridge, savig resources ad moey. The Warrell Creek to Nambucca Heads project was the first i Australia to use U-girder techology imported from Europe by the cotractor for the bridges o the project. The girders were made i a purpose-built, precast facility i Macksville ad weigh aroud 153 toes each, measure 41 metres log ad 2.2 metres high. This U girder techology will also be used for the ew bridge over the Clarece River at Harwood. The U girders will be cast o site at Harwood, limitig the eed for extesive trasport.

Key Features Costructio of the ew bridge ivolves: Desig ad costructio of a ew 1.52 kilometre bridge over the Clarece River, about 30 meters dowstream from the existig bridge. The legth of the bridge over the Clarece River will spa 620 meters, with a vertical clearace above the river of at least 30 metres for marie traffic to pass. The ew bridge will be a dual carriageway bridge, with two laes i each directio. There will be local road works at the orther ad souther abutmets. AFJV is workig with Roads ad Maritime Services (RMS) to develop ad implemet iovative ad efficiet desig solutios which will reduce the overall costructio ad operatios budget. Beefits The project is part of the larger AU $4.36 billio Woolgoolga to Ballia Pacific Highway upgrade ad is joitly fuded by the state ad federal govermets. Oce complete, the upgrade will improve road safety, reduce travel times ad icrease trasport efficiecy. Project Update The istallatio of the fial girder meas the ew crossig of the Clarece River at Harwood is 90 per cet complete. Deputy Prime Miister ad Miister for Ifrastructure ad Trasport Michael McCormack said this was a sigificat milestoe for the 1.5 kilometre, 35-spa bridge the logest of the 155-kilometre Woolgoolga to Ballia sectio of the Pacific Highway upgrade with 144 girders each weighig 168 toes ow istalled. Aroud Australia, the Liberal ad Natioals Govermet is ivestig i upgradig roads to esure people ca get home sooer ad safer, provide a boost to productivity, especially alog the Pacific Highway, Mr McCormack said. Sice the first girder was lifted i November, the project team has istalled all 144 girders, icludig trasportig 44 of the girders across the bridge at ight ad liftig 48 from barges i the river. Pilig work was completed earlier this year ad the bridge deck is expected to be completed later this year. NSW Miister for Roads, Maritime ad Freight Melida Pavey said after the deck was complete, the project team would cotiue workig o approaches to the bridge, layig asphalt, istallig deck joits, rails ad lie markig.

15 The bridge is similar to the recetly opeed 800 metre bridge over Nambucca River at Macksville, Mrs Pavey said. Federal Member for Page Kevi Hoga said oce the bridge opeed to traffic, it would improve safety ad efficiecy o the Pacific Highway, removig the eed to stop traffic to accommodate high vessels usig the river. The existig Harwood Bridge will become part of the local road etwork whe the ew bridge opes to traffic, providig a alterative route for residets ad busiesses, Mr Hoga said. The ew bridge across the Clarece River at Harwood will ope to traffic by NSW Member for Clarece Chris Gulaptis said overall progress o the Pacific Highway upgrade was also very strog. About 530 kilometres (81 per cet) of the fial legth of the Pacific Highway betwee Hexham ad the Queeslad border is ow four-lae divided highway, Mr Gulaptis said. All remaiig sectios are ow uder costructio. The Australia ad NSW Govermets are joitly fudig the costructio of the Woolgoolga to Ballia upgrade o a 80:20 basis. RICHMOND RIVER BRIDGE The last girder has bee istalled o the ew bridge over the Richmod River at Broadwater as part of the 155-kilometre Pacific Highway upgrade betwee Woolgoolga ad Ballia. Deputy Prime Miister, Leader of The Natioals ad Miister for Ifrastructure, Trasport ad Regioal Developmet, Michael McCormack, said the istallatio represeted a mometous achievemet. Throughout the atio, the Liberal ad Natioals Govermet is ivestig i the ifrastructure ad services Australias eed to get home sooer ad safer ad to boost productivity, especially i regioal Australia, Mr McCormack said. The placemet of the fial girder is a sigificat ad positive milestoe to ed the year o. The ew bridge, the secod-logest of 170 bridges o the Woolgoolga to Ballia upgrade, provides a critical lik for the 155 kilometres of ew dual carriageway ad I am glad to see it gettig closer to completio. NSW Miister for Roads, Maritime ad Freight, Melida Pavey, said the bridge was made up of 234 girders. Sice the first girder was lifted i March 2018, the project team has made impressive progress to successfully istall all 234 girders, weighig 80 toes each, Mrs Pavey said. Not oly are we deliverig a more safery jourey for all road users, the Woolgoolga to Ballia upgrade has delivered more tha 3000 jobs. Federal Member for Page Kevi Hoga said the mode of costructio was a Australia-first. This is the first time a bridge this wide has bee built i Australia with a sigle precast headstock, meaig that there is a shell for each colum to support the load of the girders, Mr Hoga said. This has reduced the eed for temporary costructio work, elimiatig 20,000 hours of workig, which has ot oly saved time but also improved safety for workers. NSW Parliametary Secretary for Reewable Eergy ad Norther NSW, Be Frakli, said the project team would be usig 43,000 toes of cocrete, 3,500 toes of asphalt ad 2,500 toes of steel to build the bridge. Pilig work was completed earlier this year ad the bridge deck is already more tha 70 per cet complete, Mr Frakli said. The bridge will be a uique visual ladmark, creatig a ew coectio betwee the Richmod Valley ad Ballia Shire coucils. NSW Member for Clarece, Chris Gulaptis, said more tha 75 per cet of about 8,500 precast cocrete pieces beig used to build 170 bridges o the upgrade had ow bee successfully delivered to site. The ew bridge over the Richmod River at Broadwater will ope to traffic i 2020, weather permittig. EARTHWORK Extesive earthwork is beig carried out alog the legth of the upgrade to provide a strog foudatio for the highway. About 14.3 millio cubic metres of earthwork is eeded across the 155 kilometre upgrade with about 13.8 millio cubic metres betwee Gleugie ad Ballia.
