3/2 Gympie Regional Strategic Transport Model (GRSTM)

Re: W04/09/11 Gympie Regional Strategic Transport Model (GRSTM)

From: Principal Project Manager, Department of Transport & Main Roads, PO Box 183, Gympie Qld 4570

File: 4-8-14-0004 Doc # 1513473 Date: 26 July 2011

“I am writing to advise you that consulting firm Sinclair Knight Merz Pty Ltd (SKM) has been awarded a contract to produce a Gympie Regional Strategic Transport Model (GRSTM). In the coming days SKM will conduct traffic data collection on behalf of the Department of Transport and Main Roads across the wider Gympie region. This data will assist with planning to be undertaken for the Gympie bypass and the entire Gympie road network.

This survey is part of the planning work on Section D (Keefton Road to Curra) of the Bruce Highway upgrade between Cooroy and Curran and will build on planning undertaken in the past. As part of the survey, up to 35 fixed video cameras will be placed at safe roadside locations on the Bruce, Wide Bay and Burnett Highways, plus various local connection roads to collect origin and destination information of traffic for planning purposes. Installers will set up the cameras from 30 July and will begin recording information continuously for 72 hours from 2 August until 4 August. The cameras will then be removed during the following week. Please be advised inclement weather or major traffic incidents may extend the data collection period. All information recorded by the cameras is confidential and no number plate details will be passed on or recorded by the department after the data is collated. These cameras are not for any form of law enforcement and are not speed cameras. Should you require a personal briefing on the GRSTM please contact my office on 5482 0333 and a team member will organise a meeting. I trust this information is of assistance.” Report: (Director of Engineering Services – R.A. Fredman) Overview: A new transport model for Gympie is being developed

by Main Roads. It is likely to be useful for council’s own transport route planning, hence is eagerly awaited.

3/3 GPS Directions

Re: W05/09/11 GPS Directions From: Hon Warren Truss MP, Federal Member for Wide Bay, PO

Box 283, Maryborough Qld 4650 File: 4-8-04-0001 Doc # 1513897 Date: 26 July 2011 Previous Council considerations: G19/06/11

That Council write to the Federal Government to raise the importance of Road information data held by GPS information providers being current at all times

“Thank you for providing me with a copy of your letter to The Director of the Department of Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy, in relation to the inaccurate information that is sometimes provided by in-car GPS units. I am aware that an increasing number of drivers are relying upon GPS devices to provide them with route information. Often a driver’s trust in their GPS device means that they no longer carry a hard copy map, or check directions before setting off on their trip. I share your concern that directions provided by GPS devices are sometimes incorrect, and can also result in a driver being directed onto an unformed or inferior road. I have written to the Minister for Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy, Senator the Hon Stephen Conroy, in support of your proposal and emphasising the particular difficulties which inaccurate GPS information systems create for motorists in country areas. I will write to you again when I receive a reply from Senator Conroy.” Report: (Director of Engineering Services – R.A. Fredman) Overview: Refer Council’s letter of 8 July 2011 as follows:

“It is being brought to Council’s attention on a regular basis that some of the information provided by GPS units to drivers is either incorrect or misleading. For example, only half of the estimated 4500km of road reserve in this Region has a Council-constructed road on it. However, GPS units do not differentiate between Council-constructed roads and tracks or undeveloped road reserve. In rural areas GPS units are found to often guide drivers onto undeveloped road reserve or onto unsafe tracks that may not even have basic safety infrastructure such as culverts, signage or pavement.

The information regarding the status of roads should be readily available from all councils and could be utilised by GPS providers. In a similar vein, liaison with councils could rectify issues such as incorrect place names. You are requested to consider placing obligations on GPS providers to ensure that their route instructions are safe. Council’s contact officer in this regard is the Director of Engineering Services Mr Bob Fredman – telephone (07) 5481 0655.”

3/4 Council – Sunshine Coast Quarries

Re: W06/09/11 Council – Sunshine Coast Quarries From: Ms E Williams, Sunshine Coast Quarries Pty Ltd File: 5-7-07-0007 Doc # 1520329 Date: 20 August 2011

“I am writing to you regarding the Sunshine Coast Quarries Moy Pocket Road Maintenance levy which has been applied to our rates notice. With the recent floods which happened at the beginning of the year a lot of roads along Moy Pocket Road have been washed away. Photos have been attached to show the amount of damage the floods had caused which as you can see was substantial. With the damage SCQ supplied quarry materials, equipment and labour to help fix these problems in the fastest possible manner. Invoices have been created to reflect these costs that SCQ have occurred. SCQ believes that these costs should be applied to the balance of the Moy Pocket Road Maintenance levy which will then reduce the balance that is owed. I ask that if you could respond to the request by the 31st August 2011 and if you have any further questions regarding this matter please don’t hesitate to contact me on 0411 889 284 or [email protected].

Report: (Director of Engineering Services – R.A. Fredman) Council rates Sunshine Coast Quarries (Moy Pocket) an amount per year that reflects the extra cost to Council of maintaining Moy Pocket Road for heavy vehicles. The amount for 2010/11 ($113,400) as at this date has not been paid. The $113,400 was derived from averaged pavement and shoulder repair costs from previous years. This account for $23,600 is for repair work on Moy Pocket Road after the January flood. There is no debate that the work was done, but it was done at the Quarry’s own volition so they could move their product out. The work done by the Quarry did not diminish Council’s costs for routine maintenance. Council had expended $102,360 by the end of the year and if this amount is full cost priced it would exceed the rate income for the road. The account could have been incorporated in Council’s Emergent Flood works claim and reimbursement subsequently arranged, however its arrival is now somewhat after the close-off date. Issues: 1. Obligation to pay Response: There was no agreement to pay the Quarry costs.

Whilst the work was much appreciated here has been an underlying assumption that the Quarry was a major beneficiary.

Discussion: There is no mechanism for obtaining NDRRA emergent works funding at this late date, and there was no contract in place that obligates Council to pay.

W06/09/11 Moved: Cr J.A. Walker Seconded: Cr J. Watt Recommend that Council thank Sunshine Coast Quarries Pty Ltd for their repairs to Moy Pocket Road in January, but advise that the avenue for Council to obtain reimbursement for costs has passed.

3/5 Expression of Interest for Local Government Disaster Recovery Services Pty Ltd (LGDRS)

Re: W07/09/11 Expression of Interest for Local Government

Disaster Recovery Services Pty Ltd (LGDRS) From: Director of Engineering Services – RA Fredman File: 1-4-05-0010 Doc # 1511157 Date: 29 August 2011 Previous Council considerations: W07/08/11

Recommend that Council authorise staff to continue with the flood damage repair strategy as previously approved. Further that the matter be referred to the Director of Engineering Services to engage with the LGAQ regarding Local Government Disaster Recovery Services Pty Ltd and to keep Councillors updated.

Report: (Director of Engineering Services – R.A. Fredman) Overview: Council was represented by the Director of

Engineering Services at an LGAQ information session on 16 August. Whilst the scope of what LGAQ (through one of their affiliate companies) can offer is potentially quite exciting, at this stage it is preferred to continue on with the flood damage repair strategy as previously approved.

Issues: 1. Day Labour

Response: The LGAQ does have a method of being reimbursed for day labour. However it would appear to involve a complex model that would have inter alia, significant staff implications and time delays.

2. Timeliness: Response: High on the agenda for Council’s approved flood repair program has been to deliver repairs in the shortest possible time. Whilst good progress is currently being made, alternative faster arrangements are currently being investigated.

3. Cost: Response: Staff are working within the 2011/12 Budget day labour targets. At this stage there is no clear indication on the likely total value of work that will be achieved.

Discussion: Timeliness of the repair program is the predominant factor. This suggests that the current strategy should remain.

3/6 Rehabilitation Works – Calgoa Creek Bridge

Re: W08/09/11 Rehabilitation Works – Calgoa Creek Bridge From: Regional Director (Wide Bay/Burnett) Department of

Transport and Main Roads, Locked Bag 486, Bundaberg Qld 4670

File: 4-8-12-0003 Doc # 1517195 Date: 9 August 2011 “A recent inspection of the Calgoa Creek Bridge on the Brooweena-Woolooga Road has identified the need for rehabilitation work. To ensure the safety of road users, a temporary load restriction of 20 tonnes will be put in place on the timber bridge from Wednesday 17 August 2011. The Department of Transport and Main Roads is committed to a safe and efficient road network and load limiting the bridge will be an interim measure to ensure safety until the identified work can be carried out. Signage is in place at either end of the Brooweena-Woolooga Road at the Boompa Road and Bauple-Woolooga Road intersections advising motorists of the temporary load restriction. An alternative route for vehicles heavier than 20 tonnes is via the Burnett or Bruce Highways. The rehabilitation work is scheduled to begin in September 2011 and be completed by the end of December 2011, weather permitting. The department understands the inconvenience of the temporary load restriction for heavy vehicle operators and will work as quickly as possible to restore the bridge back to regulation mass. If you require further information, please call Ms Deyarn Williams, Senior Communications Advisor in Bundaberg on 4154 0258. Ms Williams will be pleased to assist.”

3/7 Black Spot Locations

Re: W09/09/11 Black Spot Locations From: Regional Director (Wide Bay/Burnett), Department of

Transport and Main Roads, Locked Bag 486, Bundaberg Qld 4670

File: 4-8-20-0001 Doc # 1519539 Date: 22 August 2011 “I am pleased to advise that nominations for Black Spot locations are invited from local councils for the development of the 2012/13 Black Spot Program. All nominations should be made on the official Black Spot Nomination Form, attached with a Benefit Coast Ratio spreadsheet and the Department of Transport and Main Roads’ specific appendix sheet. All nominations require endorsement by a Registered Professional Engineer of Queensland. I understand Mr Vince Green, Senior Engineer (Traffic), emailed council representatives in early August with the relevant documents attached. The Black Spot Program nomination database closes on the 7 October 2011 with no extensions to be given. Please ensure submissions are sent to the department’s Bundaberg office by 30 September 2011 to enable departmental officers to enter submissions into the database and confirm any details prior to the deadline. On receipt of a completed nomination, the department will examine the nominated site’s eligibility, and may undertake an economic assessment of the treatment proposed. All nominations will be referred for consideration by the Consultative Panel. If you require further information about the Black Spot nominations or eligibility, please call Mr Green in Bundaberg on 4154 0271. Mr Green will be pleased to assist.”

Report: (Director of Engineering Services – R.A. Fredman) Overview: The Black Spot Program focuses on upgrading specific

locations on local government roads (often intersections) with a recorded accident history. The funding is generally not conditional on any supporting Council funding, which makes this program attractive.

Issues: Nil Discussion: There are two Gympie intersections which have been nominated in the past but which have been unsuccessful – these being Station Road/Tozer Street and Monkland Street/Jaycee Way/Barter Street.

W09/09/11 Moved: Cr R.A. Gâté Seconded: Cr G.L. Engeman Recommend that the matter be referred to staff to resubmit Station Road and Monkland Street jobs for Black Spot consideration, and to review recent crash data with a view to adding other eligible sites (if any) to the Submission.

3/8 Bruce Highway Upgrade Strategy for public consultation connecting Queensland’s regions – July 2011

Re: W10/09/11 Bruce Highway Upgrade Strategy for public

consultation connecting Queensland’s regions – July 2011. From: Department of Local Government & Planning

www.digp.qld.gov.au File: Date: August 2011

Report: (Director of Engineering Services – R.A. Fredman) Overview: The State government, presumably after consultation

with the Federal Government, has released its policy for upgrading the Bruce Highway.

Council staff have produced a Draft Response. The

main thrust of the Response is twofold: a) the program times are totally unacceptable to

Council;

b) the section to follow on from the current works (ending at Traveston) needs to extend to Tin Can Bay Road and not stop at Kybong as proposed.

Issues: (a) Consultation: it is considered that council’s Response is highly likely

to represent the thoughts of the residents, due to the past publicity this matter has received.

(b) Timing: the Response is due to be submitted by 9 September, however Council staff have requested an extension of time (until Council’s General Meeting on 14 September 2011) to submit our Response and at the time of writing this report we are awaiting advice from the Department that such an extension has been granted.

3/9 Enhancing Regional and Remote Water Supply and Waste Water Quality

Re: W11/09/11 Enhancing Regional and Remote Water

Supply and Waste Water Quality From: Mr L Little, CEO, Smart Water Research Centre, Gold

Coast Campus, Griffith University Qld 4222 File: 4-1-04-0001 Doc # 1518951 Date: 19 august 2011 “We invite you to partner with the Smart Water Research Centre (SWRC) and regional water authorities, including the Gladstone Water Board and Wide Bay Water, to enhance regional and remote water supply and waste water quality through new technology, processes and training. SWRC aims to fund this activity with an application to the Queensland Government’s Smart Futures Fund, with co-contributions from regional water partners. This activity will deliver five key benefits: - more cost effective maintenance of waste water treatment systems

through improved design of infrastructure and operations; - new water quality diagnostic and management tools for drinking water

and waste water; - operator up-skilling in water quality management and monitoring

techniques;

- development and implementation of a standardised tool for reporting on water quality pre and post treatment and usage; and

- an ongoing network of regional water authorities and universities to deliver innovative solutions for regional water supply and waste water challenges.

As an emerging research consortium comprised of industry, university and government partners, the SWRC has now placed a priority on working with, and delivering benefit to, regional and remote water utilities. We would like to offer you the opportunity to partner in this initiative, which also has the support of the Queensland Water Directorate. The key aims of this proposal will be managed by leading researchers from our partner universities; Griffith University; Central Queensland University; and the university of the Sunshine Coast. We see this initiative as seeding an ongoing regional water supply research network, providing continuing benefit to your organisation and community. If you are interested in discussing this opportunity in more detail I encourage you to urgently contact me directly. I look forward to hearing from you.” Report: (Director of Engineering Services – R.A. Fredman) Overview: The Smart Water Research Centre is seeking

approximately $50,000 from Council and in exchange will undertake three years of research in topics determined by the Board.

Issues: Council subscribes to the Qld Water Directorate.

There is a concern regarding best use of Council funds beyond funding the Directorate.

Discussion: the Centre is new and has no product available at this

time for Council to review. More information has been sought.

W11/09/11 Moved: Cr J. Watt Seconded: Cr J.A. Walker

Recommend that the writer be advised that Council has no funding available at this time, but will reconsider the matter in the future.

The Hotline is a central contact point for road workers and traffic controllers to report errant drivers at controlled road construction and maintenance sites. Currently, this process is only in place to TMR employees and contractors engaged in road construction/maintenance works under the control of TMR. The Hotline service has been operating successfully for several years and during this time there has been a reduction in road user aggression incidents. Incidents that are reported to the Hotline are communicated to Queensland Police for further investigation, and where possible, the prosecution of offending motorists. A 2009 Ombudsman’s Report into the traffic control industry in Queensland highlighted a need to provide a similar service for all road workers. After consideration, TMR determined the most appropriate solution would be to provide a central point of contact through the existing Hotline. To achieve this goal the Hotline service will be provided on a state-wide basis across the entire traffic control industry. The benefits or providing this service are:

o helping to improve the safety of road workers and traffic controllers o contributing towards the government’s vision of Zero Harm o a service provided by TMR at no cost to Councils.

To allow Councils to participate in this program, you are asked to provide a contact within your region that would be responsible for all incidents that occur on Council owned roads within your jurisdiction. TMR will provide all councils with the necessary information required to ensure a successful implementation of the program within their organization. TMR will also continue to manage and finance this service. If you would like to participate in the program please call Mr Joshua Krebs, Consultant (Research and Development) on 3137 7574. Mr Krebs will provide your office with all the necessary information to ensure the program is successfully implemented across your local area.”

5/1 Caravan and Motor Home Parking – Gympie

Re: W13/09/11 Caravan and Motor Home Parking – Gympie From: Local Resident File: 2-7-02-0008 Doc # 1508849 Date: 7 July 2011

“I am writing to you to inform you of some observations, suggestions, and concerns I have. My wife and I are keen caravaners. I have noticed and been concerned for some time that there is no designated caravan parking in Gympie. I have witnessed caravans parked around the outskirts of the Centro Shopping Centre, sometimes causing a hazard as the streets are not wide enough to safely park there. I have great concern for anyone who may drive into the Centro car park and try to leave by the southern exit. There is not enough room to negotiate a

caravan around the pillar on the southern side of the building and once turning into that area from the main car park, you would not be able to reverse back. The only exit would be down the wrong side of the road. There are no signs warning of this. There is absolutely nowhere to park a caravan anywhere near Goldfields Plaza. The problem with this is (having been caught myself) if cars park beside you there is not enough room to turn to get out. Because of my interest in caravanning, I know that the caravan and motor home industry is booming and as the baby boomers are retiring this market will only increase. I have included some recent newspaper cuttings that back up my claims. I would like to suggest that the Gympie Regional Council develop some RV only parking. Ideally somewhere in the Nelson Reserve area – it would need to be set up as s drive-through basis and be sell signed to gain access to and from the Highway. It would be an asset to have a dump point in close vicinity. I am convinced that if this is done it will bring the travelling public to stop in Gympie and they will spend money here. When my wife and I travel north we always stop in Childers, because of the ease of parking. It is well signed and is only one street away from the main street. I have included some photos of this area and written on the back what they are. I have also included some photos of RV’s parked on Nelson Reserve. Another issue I have witnessed on a number of occasions is vehicles towing caravans turning into the Woolworths Caltex Service Station on the Highway, only to be stopped because there is not enough room for vehicles to ramp up. The result is the caravan is left sticking out into one lane of the Highway. It would be impossible to reverse back as the van would then go into the other lane of traffic as well. The only way out is wait for vehicles in front to move to allow the caravan to be moved off the Highway – very dangerous. I feel this service station should never have been approved without having better access and visibility, goodness knows these company’s could afford it. ……….. ……….. I want to thank you for taking the time to consider these issues.” PS: I have had difficulty sleeping lately (I think I need a holiday in a van). While unable to sleep I have been thinking about a solution to the RV parking in Gympie. Here is what I have come up with. Why not allow caravans and motor homes only to park on the grass at Nelson Reserve. This would be the cheapest option for the Council. I have had a look – all that is needed is an invert installed in the gutter on the highway side of the stage area, then allow them to drive through and exit through the car park below the swimming pool. The area would need to be well signed to

and from the Highway. I suggest an information sign be erected in the area, directing people to Mary Street and Goldfields Plaza – also promoting the attractions of the Gympie region. Why not make the Gympie Region the RV Capital of Queensland. What people are looking for is free camps, evidenced by the number of people staying at the Six Mile and Chatsworth Rest areas. If there were more of these throughout the district the people would come. While mentioning these two areas, they could do with an upgrade. They have large pot holes and are not negotiable in the wet. While looking at the area around Centro, I believe there is an area of land on the eastern side of Centro Way that could be developed into RV parking. Once again thank you for considering my suggestions.” Report: (General Manager Design Services Division – L. O’Brien) Overview: This letter is one of several approaches that have been

made to Council recently about parking for caravans and motor homes in Gympie.

Consultation: Community Services Division including Manager, Economic Development / Public Relations.

Issues: 1. The requests mostly relate to caravan/motor home parking close

to grocery shopping and/or the CBD. 2. There are a number of existing long vehicle parking bays around

the Gympie CBD. 3. There is a need to balance the potential loss of parking for

conventional vehicles with any increased provision for caravan/motor home parking.

4. Cars with caravans can legally park in two conventional (end to end) car spaces, and this commonly happens already in town, particularly in the Jaycee Way car park.

5. Existing and potential locations for dedicated caravan and motor home parking spaces have been reviewed in the vicinity of the CBD and the Centro shopping complex.

Risk Analysis: There is potential for some complaints about loss of

conventional car parking spaces where they are converted for dedicated long vehicle parking.

Discussion: Two (2) aspects have been considered, namely: (a) the provision of suitable parking spaces for caravans and motor

homes, (b) making potential users aware of those parking spaces through

signage and other means. Parking Spaces for Caravans and Motor Homes Refer aerial photographs below.

Site Number of

spaces Comment

1 1 Monkland St: This is an existing long vehicle bay. Proposal is to install a 4 hour time limit to discourage all day use.

2 1 River Rd: This is an existing long vehicle bay. The proposal is to install a 4 hour time limit to discourage all day use.

3 3 Jaycee Way car park: This area is already well used by caravans and motor homes. The proposal is to convert 8 conventional parking bays (ie 4 rows of 2 bays) into 3 long vehicle bays. The additional width would make these bays suitable for RV parking as well as caravans. Manoeuvring of large caravans into a bay will still be difficult unless 2 adjacent bays are empty. However, there is adequate turning room for such vehicles to exit the car park if they are unable park. The parking direction signage for the Jaycee Way car park would be amended with a supplementary plate showing a car with caravan. The 3 proposed bays would be line marked and the words "long vehicles only" painted on the pavement. There is no time restriction for vehicles parking in the Jaycee Way car park.

4 2 River Rd: The existing long vehicle parking is poorly signed and currently line marked as 4 conventional bays. It is proposed to improve signage, line mark for 2 long vehicles and limit parking to 4 hours.

5 3 Perseverance St: The proposal is to convert 6 conventional car parking bays into 3 long vehicle bays. There is good access from these bays to the Centro shopping centre entrance. These bays would also have a 4 hour limit. Parking direction signage is proposed for Site 5 and this will need Department of Transport andMain Roads approval for signs on the Bruce Highway.

Total 10 dedicated spaces

Other sites considered include: Nelson Reserve

Allowing caravans and motor homes to park on the grass in Nelson Reserve as suggested by the letter writer would destroy the amenity of the park for other users.

Jaycee Way Future intersection upgrading at Monkland Street/Jaycee Way/ Barter Street may relocate the existing bus stop on Jaycee Way. This would free up another location for caravan and motor home parking if required at that time.

Hyne Street/Rose Street Provision of a new car park in the vicinity of the netball courts which would cater for both the netball association and caravans/motor homes was considered. However, this is a high cost solution and the shape of the available land at this location means that only a small number of long vehicle parks could be provided at the expense of a (potentially) large number of conventional car spaces.

Various on-road locations A number of possible on-road locations were identified but ruled out due to poor accessibility for caravans and motor homes or the

potential impact on nearby businesses of losing on-road parking for cars.

Archery Park Caravan and motor home parking could be provided along Cross Street or by construction of a parking area in the park itself. However, this location is considered, for many people, to be beyond walking distance to CBD shopping.

Parking Information The sites tabulated above would all be signed for long vehicle parking only. Permission would be sought from the Department of Transport and Main Roads to install supplementary plates showing the car/caravan symbol on parking direction signs on the highway either side of Monkland Street. The existing Jaycee Way car park direction signs on Monkland St and River Road would have supplementary plates installed showing a car and caravan. The three (3) proposed bays in Perseverance Street should be given some parking direction signage from the Bruce Highway via Centro Way. This will need approval from the Department of Transport and Main Roads. The sites can be shown on a map on Council's website and the same map provided to the Campervan and Motor Home Club, the Australian Caravan Club and other relevant associations. The locations of the sites would also be provided to Whereis.com with the aim of having the locations available to satellite navigation systems and GoogleMaps.

5/2 Energex 33kV Feeder Route

Re: W14/09/11 Energex 33kV Feeder Route From: Energex, GPO Box 1461, BRISBANE QLD 4006 File: 4-4-05-0001 Doc ID 1509746 Date: 15 July 2011 “Energex is installing new 33kV supply cables to meet electricity demands in the Gympie area. To achieve this, Energex plans to construct double circuit underground 33kV feeders between Energex’s bulk supply substation in Gympie (SST8) and zone substation in Gympie North (SSGYN). Please refer to drawing 22605-1 sheets 1-18 attached which illustrate in more detail the extent of works Energex proposes to complete. This work will be undertaken by an experienced Energex approved contractor. Gympie Regional Council approval to this project work as shown on the enclosed drawings is requested. On receipt of approval, contracts for this work will be issued and construction will commence in September 2011. Our civil contractor will then approach Gympie Regional Council for road opening permits and submit the required traffic management plans. Your early response to this request would be appreciated. Further information may be obtained by contacting Dan Carey of Energex telephone 3664 4813.”

Report: (General Manager Design Services Division – L. O’Brien) Overview: Energex has written to Council seeking approval to

install new 33kV supply cables under both council and state-controlled roads between its substations in Pine Street (west) and Wises Road. The proposed route is shown on the attached map. The cables would expose Council to potential additional costs in the future if the high voltage cables conflict with future Council works.

Issues: 1. The installation is needed to meet electricity demands in Gympie. 2. Energex originally proposed overhead installation of these high

voltage lines but have advised that they bowed to community pressure to place them underground.

3. The route now chosen by Energex is under roads and streets which are controlled by Council or the Department of Transport and Main Roads.

4. Energex has chosen this route to minimise its own costs and risks.

5. Both Council and Department of Transport and Main Roads staff have previously requested Energex to consider other underground routes which may present less risk to both road authorities.

6. Energex wishes to commence work in September and complete the installation early in 2012.

7. Traffic management and working hour proposals are to be submitted to Council for review before any site work commences.

Discussion: Council staff have been in detailed discussions with Energex since early July. Energex has attempted to design its trenching, both in horizontal and vertical alignment, to avoid conflict with existing Council services and known future works. Energex has agreed to reinstate the full lane width of the road surface where asphalt resurfacing has recently been carried out and has also committed to reinstating disturbed grassed and landscaped areas to a good standard. The trench reinstatement will have a 12 month rolling maintenance period. Generally, the cables will be 1.2 metres below the surface, except for some short sections where they will go to 1.5 metres deep to avoid existing services or future work. However, there are 9 known locations where the cables will be over the top of existing sewers or stormwater pipes, and there are many more locations where the depth of Council services needs to be confirmed on-site to determine whether the cables go over or under. There is a considerable risk for Council that future maintenance, renewal or upgrading works of sewers and stormwater pipes and pits or of the roads themselves may require the relocation or protection of the cables. Another likely scenario is that Council will need to alter its work methods (eg tunnel boring may be required instead of open trenching) to reduce risk or avoid conflicts with the cables. The additional costs involved are likely to be very significant and potentially beyond the capacity of Council to fund. Further, workplace health and safety issues may need to be considered. Council staff have attempted to gain an agreement from Energex that it will bear the costs of relocation/protection of the underground cables should that be necessary to allow for Council maintenance, renewal or upgrading works in the future. Energex has advised to date that it can not provide that agreement. Under Section 102 of the Electricity Act 1994, Energex is required to obtain the written agreement of the road authority (which includes a Local Government) before it can "build, remove or alter its electric lines".

These costs may include the costs of protecting the cables or additional costs due to changed work methods (eg tunnel boring instead of open trenching). Further that Energex provides training at regular intervals for supervisory staff regarding safe working with 33,000 volt cables.

5/3 Proposed Renaming of Geographical Features near Kilkivan

Re: W15/09/11 Proposed Renaming of Geographical Features near Kilkivan – Mount Boo Boo (Bu’boo), Mount Kilkivan, Bakers Gully, German Gully, Italian Gully, Skibbereen Gully and Star Gully

From: Ross Norman, Senior Spatial Information Officer, Nambour Office, DERM, PO Box 573, Nambour Qld 4560

File: 4-4-03-0008 Doc # 1516735 Date: 10 August 2011

“The Department of Environment and Resource Management has developed a proposal to officially name two unnamed mountains as Mount Boo Boo (Bu’Boo – alternative name) and Mount Kilkivan, as well as five unnamed gullies as Bakers Gully, German Gully, Italian Gully, Skibbereen Gully and Star Gully in accordance with the Place Names Act 1994. In April 2011, the Kilkivan and District Historical Society lodged a submission with the department to formally name Mount Boo Boo (Bu’boo), Mount Kilkivan, Bakers Gully, German Gully, Italian Gully, Star Gully and Skibbereen Gully located south-east of the Kilkivan township. All the proposed features have significant historical links to the original township of Kilkivan situated off Rossmore Road. This was the site of the historical Kilkivan gold fields and the individual gold mines operating the district gave the names to the five gullies.

Mount Boo Boo is a pyramidal shaped peak which dominates the immediate Kilkivan landscape by casting a morning shadow over the township. It is well known locally as Mount Boo Boo and has been referenced by this name in many newspaper articles and publications for almost 150 years. The origin of the name Boo Boo is unknown. However, there is a distinct link between the European spelling of Boo Boo and the local Indigenous Australian people’s word Bu’boo meaning Native Apple Tree – refer to the Dictionary of the Gubbi-Gubbi and Butchulla Languages by Jeanie Bell (1994). Native apple trees are commonly found all over the mountain and, for this reason, it is proposed to alternatively name the feature Bu’boo. Alternative names may occur when different cultural or racial groups may know the same place under a different name or names. Mount Kilkivan is located about a kilometre south-east of Mount Boo Boo near the site of the original Kilkivan township. It has also been referenced in newspaper articles and publications, particularly during the early gold rush years. Bakers Gully rises high in the slopes of Mount Boo Boo and runs generally in an easterly direction for about one kilometre until its confluence with German Gully. German Gully rises high in the slopes of Mount Kilkivan and runs generally in a north and easterly direction for about three kilometres until its confluence with Fat Hen Creek. Italian Gully rises high in the slopes of Mount Kilkivan and runs generally in an easterly direction for about two kilometres until its confluence with West Coast Creek. Skibbereen Gully rises high in the slopes of Middle Mountain and runs generally in an easterly direction for about three kilometres until its confluence with West Coast Creek. Star Gully rises high in the slopes of Mount Kilkivan and runs generally in an easterly direction for about one kilometre until its confluence with Italian Gully. All the gullies are well known locally by these proposed names and have been referenced in numerous newspaper articles, publications and historical geological plans. The origin of the names are unknown, however German Gully, Italian Gully and Skibbereen Gully were probably derived from the nationalities of the multicultural society which prospected for gold in the district. Skibbereen is the name of a town in Ireland.

Report: (GIS Manager – D. Perry) Overview: The Queensland Department of Environment and

Resource Management has written to Council seeking comment on the proposal to formally name two peaks and five gullies in the Locality of Kilkivan (refer attached plan). The Kilkivan & District Historical Society made an application to the Department to have these features included in the Place Name Register.

Corp Plan: 3.1 Op Plan: 2.7 Budget: Budget Consultation: Design Services Issues: Naming of Geographical features after old district

identities can result in some form of disagreement in the community.

Risk Analysis: Names have been put forward by the The Kilkivan &

District Historical Society based on sound historical records thereby greatly reducing risk associated with the above.

Discussion: The seven (7) proposed feature names are Mount Boo Boo, Mount Kilkivan, Bakers Gully, German Gully, Italian Gully, Star Gully, and Skibbereen Gully (refer plan submitted with correspondence). All are located south east of the Kilkivan Township. Based on the researched conducted by the Department of Environment and Resource Management the names of these features have been in use for some time but are not registered names under the Place Names Act.

W15/09/11 Moved: Cr A.J. Perrett Seconded: Cr D.R. Neilson Recommend that Council offer no objection to the naming of the identified features as Mount Boo Boo, Mount Kilkivan, Bakers Gully, German Gully, Italian Gully, Star Gully, and Skibbereen Gully as shown on the provided plan.

Qld 4570 File: 4-8-07-0007-03 (Doc ID 1490462) Date: 26 August 2011 Previous Council considerations: W05/06/11

Recommend that the matter be referred to the Works Directorate to carry out repairs as warranted. Further that the correspondence be referred to the Design Directorate to report back to Council with a design and estimate for an upgrade of the carparking area. Further that the writer be advised accordingly.

“On behalf of the Gympie & District Netball Association, I write with reference to no curbing/guttering at the Excelsior Reserve site. The Association has asked Council, on a number of occasions to address this issue. The Association notes Council has recently placed bitumen along the edge of the road; however this does not alleviate the main and most obvious issue as seen on the attached photo. The photo reinforces the issue that all water runs directly into the Excelsior Reserve carpark. Due to concerns for the welfare of our members, to date the Association has on a number of occasions had to manually fill the numerous long, jagged deep crevasses created by water runoff due to the lack of any curbing/guttering. This area of land is the responsibility of Council, and Council must acknowledge any injury to individual/s or vehicles by any member of the (4) tenants currently leasing this site, in addition to the general public who regularly access this site for rest and recreation, will be at the expense of Council. The Association respectfully requests this matter be treated as a matter of urgency, as our Association predominately accesses this site during the evenings for fixtures and training, which places all our members at further risk. Please note, due to the inherent weather our region has experienced over the past 4-6 months, and continues to, this situation will only be exasperated further if not dealt with accordingly.

Your prompt consideration in this matter, and written notification of your intentions, would be appreciated.” Report: (Design Services Division; Design Manager –

G. Alexander) Overview: W05/06/11 refers:- further that Design Division report

back to Council with a design and estimate for an upgrade of the car parking area.

Corp Plan: 2.1 (iv) Op Plan: 2.4 (i) Budget: Road construction and maintenance Consultation: Internal Issues: 1. Scouring is occurring in gravel car park due to water discharging

from kerb and channel. 2. Informal car parking over gravel area results in a mixed use by

pedestrians and vehicles. The gravel car park can result in dust issues and sediment run-off.

Risk Analysis: 1. A short term option would be to convey water from kerb and channel

passing the site, to eliminate concentrated flows. 2. A long term option would be to seal the car park area to eliminate the

dust issue, maximise and formalise parking area, while providing defined links for pedestrians.

Discussion: Two (2) options have been investigated; (a) Install an invert channel to convey water from Hyne Street / Rose

Street around the corner, ie fill in the missing link between the two (2) sections of kerb and channel and re-profile the verge. The estimated cost for these works is in the order of $10,000.

(b) Asphalt seal, line mark and sign the car park areas, creating 58 bays. The estimated cost for these works is in the order of $130,000, in addition to option (a). A concept layout is attached.

The possibility of providing a formal car park which meets the needs of the Netball Association as well as providing space for caravan and motor home parking has also been investigated. However, because of the shape and size of the area available, only a relatively small number of long vehicle parking spaces (eg. 6 spaces) could be provided while a large number of conventional spaces (eg 25 spaces) would be lost. This option is not recommended. As previously reported, there is no funding currently available for Capital Works in this area.

5/5 Channon Street Parking – Time Limits

Re: W17/09/11 Channon Street Parking – Time Limits From: General Manager Design Services Division – L O’Brien File: 4-8-07-0007-06 Date: 26 August 2011 Report: (General Manager Design Services Division – L. O’Brien) Overview: A request has been received to place a time limit on

roadside parking on the southern side of Channon Street between Barter and Reef Streets.

Consultation: Community Services (Co-ordinator Complaints, Local Disaster Co-ordinator)

Issues: 1. If parking were to be restricted, as requested, a 2 hour limit would

be most appropriate for consistency with other locations. It would also be preferable to line mark parking bays to ensure the most efficient use of the area.

2. The request for a time restriction is from the owner of a business which has off-street parking.

3. This area is outside the regulated parking area which currently ends at the Reef / Channon Street intersection.

4. Extending the regulated area on the southern side of Channon Street from Reef Street to Barter Street would add approximately 11 car parking spaces to the regulated area.

Discussion: Council's Community Services Department advises that it does not support extension of the regulated parking area at this location. Resources for parking enforcement are limited and barely sufficient to enforce the existing area. Placing a time limit on parking at this location without extending the regulated parking area may cause confusion for both "parkers" and business owners. Requests for council to enforce the parking restriction could not be met. The road shoulders in this part of Channon St are currently used for parking by a wide range of people, including employees of other business in the area, customers of the pharmacy and other businesses and church goers. A time limit would displace many of these vehicles and potentially increase the number of vehicles parked all day in front of residences in Reef and Barter Streets north of Channon Street. The off-street parking has been observed on many occasions to be empty or only part full at the same time the adjacent on-road parking is fully occupied.

W17/09/11 Moved: Cr D.R. Neilson Seconded: Cr J. Watt Recommend that existing unrestricted road-side parking on Channon Street between Barter Street and Reef Street remains unrestricted. Further refer to Design Services Division to arrange for car parking bays to be line-marked at this location.

Further that the writer be advised accordingly.

“At a recent meeting of the Southside Neighbourhood Watch, it was unanimously agreed to write to Council with a number of concerns raised by residents of the area.

1. Residents in Bushland Drive have advised of an issue relating to reversing out of a driveway at 66 Bushland Drive where a tree is obstructing the view of the driver. It was requested that attention be given to the offending tree and suitable trimming to be undertaken.

2. Residents in the Stumm Road area have indicated the need for traffic calming devices or an increased Police presence during school zone times along Stumm Road. Drivers are exceeding the speed limit on a regular basis and there is no safe footpath system along this road for pedestrians.

Your attention to these matters is appreciated.” Report: (Design Services Draftsman – S. McLeod) Overview: W10/07/11 recommended that a speed analysis be

undertaken along Stumm Road. Corp Plan: 2.1 (iv) Op Plan: 2.1 (i) Budget: NIL Consultation: Internal Issues: 1. Issues raised were in relation to speeding vehicles along Stumm

Road, in particular during school times. Risk Analysis: 1. Pedestrians walking along the road edge with vehicles travelling at

speed. Discussion: Traffic counts were undertaken along Stumm Road to assess vehicles speed. Two (2) sites were analysed, being Site 1 between Justin Street and Eugene Street (60km/hr posted speed limit) and Site 2 between Eugene Street and Davidson Road (70km/hr posted speed limit).

Whilst the speed survey indicated the occasional vehicle travelling at high speed, the 85th percentile speed for Site 1 is 64km/hr and for Site 2 is 75km/hr. This is well within the acceptable range for the corresponding speed zones and therefore traffic calming or reduced sped limits are not warranted in this instance.

This has made walking to and from our college a more enjoyable and safer experience. As student numbers at Victory College increase, we are also seeing an increased number of students walking to and from our college using the footpath which creates another concern for the safety of children needing to cross the extremely busy Old Maryborough Road. Our staff have been monitoring the children crossing this section of the road and believe it is necessary for a pedestrian crossing to be installed with a traffic refuge a the southern end of Victory College where the footpath meets the roadway. This would also slow motorists down as many travel through this section at well above 40kph, apparently unaware that this is a designated ‘school zone’. Victory College seeks Council’s assistance in liaising with the Traffic Advisory Committee regarding the design and construction of a suitable pedestrian crossing that would be much safer for the children and will be of benefit to the local community well into the future.” Report: (Design Services Draftsman – S.

pedestrians (including 11 children under 12 years old) crossed Old Maryborough Road and 302 vehicles were counted travelling past the site. The site was assessed using Department of Transport and Main Roads Pedestrian Crossing Facilities Guidelines. Based on pedestrian / traffic volumes, the site does not warrant installation of either a pedestrian refuge or pedestrian (zebra) crossing. However, given the following factors, a pedestrian refuge is considered an appropriate treatment: Width of road being 11.2 metres takes longer for students to cross

both lanes. Recent reports of near misses. Vehicle speeds during school times are high (85th percentile

speed is 59km/hr – school zone is 40km/hr) Pathway constructed at that location directs all pedestrian traffic

across the road at this location. The estimated cost to construct a pedestrian refuge, including lighting, is $25,000. Savings on current TIDS (SafeST) projects may be able to be allocated to this work with approval from the Department of Transport and Main Roads.

W19/09/11 Moved: Cr A.J. Perrett Seconded: Cr G.L. Engeman Recommend that Council seeks funding from the Department of Transport and Main Roads under the SafeST program to construct a pedestrian refuge on Old Maryborough Road near the eastern boundary of the school.

requested the installation of street lights between Britannic Avenue and Glorious Avenue.

Discussion: This 700 metre section of Golden Hind Avenue has no lighting at all. Elsewhere in the development, streets lights at intersections provide lighting for pedestrians and motorists at reasonably regular spacings. Energex has completed a design which involves the installation of 7 new street lights. This would provide a fairly consistent spacing of lights for the full length of Golden Hind Avenue. As the lights can be installed on existing electricity poles, Energex will not charge Council for the installation. Although the new installations would be screened to minimise light spillage, it is possible that some residents may complain about the additional lights.

Wilson Pocket Road – Nall Bridge Replacement The works involve replacing the existing timber bridge with 5/3300x3300 RC box culverts in the above-mention location. The roadway will be realigned to ensure all new works take place inside the existing road reserve. The roadway will have a formation width of 7.0m on the bridge approaches, with a taper to 6.64m over the culvert and will be sealed guardrails will also be provided on approaches and over the culvert. This project is expected to start towards the end of this year but timing will depend on Flood Restoration work approvals. Neusavale Road – Jam Tin Creek Bridge Replacement The works involve replacing the existing timber bridge with 2/1800x1500 RC Box culverts in the above mention location. The roadway will be realigned to ensure all works take place inside the existing road reserve. The roadway will have a formation width of 7m and will be sealed with a taper width of 3.5m on each side of culvert. This project timing will depend on Flood Restorative work approvals. Coonoongibber Creek Road Bridge No. 8. The works involve replacing of Timber Bridge with a 1900 diameter pipe. This project is expected to start in early 2012 and is currently being designed. Flood Restoration Works Staff are currently investigating regional flood affected areas to gather data for inclusion in funding assistance claim. It is expected that the final restorative work programme will be extensive and resources will need to be balanced with Council’s other non flood related projects. Future Flood restoration works will be reported to Council once funding applications have been approved. Council has received approval for a portion of sealed roads restorative work. Stabilising works commenced on 18th July and at the time of writing works were under way in the Goomeri area. The challenge over the next 6 months and beyond will be balancing resource requirements across the Flood Restorative Works Program, the Gympie Woolooga Main Roads Project and Council’s Capital and Maintenance Works Program.

Services Committee Meeting for consideration

“We, the residents of the village of Brooloo, petition the Gympie Regional Council and Department of Main Roads to clear a trail from the Parry Street, Mary Valley Road intersection, along the boundary of private property to Thomsen Street (ungazetted). We have contacted the people residing in the property and they have agreed. Our community is in need of all weather safe access to the Brooloo Hall Community Grounds. At present we are using the existing road shoulder off Mary Valley road which is dangerous due to the high frequency of quarry trucks, local traffic and weekend busy tourist vehicles in 100 km zone. Mothers with babies and children in prams, horse riders, bicycle riders, general leisure and fitness walkers of all ages, with dogs. Etc are walking the shoulder in order to access the Community Grounds. Therefore we ask the Gympie Regional Council and Department of Main Roads to clear vegetation and establish a low grade track that we as community are willing to participate in maintaining.” Report: (General Manager Works Division – G.C. Ingham)

Corp Plan: 1.3, 2.1 Op Plan: 2.1 Budget: Parks. Footpath verges and non developed land Consultation: Brooloo Community and Council staff Issues: No significant issues Risk Analysis: Walkway will improve safety for pedestrians

Discussion: The Brooloo Community including children use the Mary Valley Road to walk to and from the recreational facilities at the Brooloo Hall. There is no formal footpath or safe walking facility between the township and the recreational area. Following Community representation, Council has investigated a proposed walkway between Parry Street and the recreational area. The land in question is Main Road Reserve. (see map). An informal (not concrete or asphalt) walkway can be formed that would allow pedestrians safe travel between the two locations. The main vegetation type is open Eucalyptus forest. All native vegetation will be retained but weeds in the vicinity will be removed. Work would take place well off the Mary Valley Road with a single bobcat. Traffic control measures will be implemented in accordance with the MUTCD where appropriate. The community will undertake the ongoing and minimal maintenance of the walkway. This project has merit importantly from a road safety perspective but also in providing the Brooloo Community with a safe and pleasant bush walk to a recreational area.

Approval will be sought from the Department of Main Roads for works on Mary Valley Road reserve.

Report: (Parks Manager – E.G. French) Maintenance budgets With some forecasts of a wetter than average growing season ahead, Parks and Urban verges maintenance budgets are expected to be more than significantly impacted. In normal conditions, priority of funding and resources is allocated to parks, and reserves on the following basis; 1. parks/reserves of regional importance, 2. district/township level parks, 3. local parks with priority to playgrounds and built facilities and

areas immediately adjacent to same 4. Reserves/areas of lower use 5. Other open spaces Should circumstances require, standards of delivery will be reduced in the last two if not three categories to work within allocated funding.

Urban verge and non-developed land budget allocations will be prioritised towards the centre of townships and CBD areas, and roads experiencing heaviest traffic volumes. Increased use of lower cost management actions and standards will be utilized. Parks maintenance works Pruning of trees and removal of vegetation on road reserves continued to be a focus of maintenance operations, particularly on the Cooloola Coast, Imbil and Gympie. Should conditions permit, these works will continue as resources permit for the following 4 – 6 weeks. Spring fertiliser and renovation/aeration works on Council controlled sports reserves have started, in conjunction with State funded works where applicable, and these works will continue as weather conditions and sport field use permits. This includes Weier Oval where works in recent years has significantly improved the playing conditions on the field. Repairs and repainting of seats and tables throughout the region is also being undertaken with priority allocated on safety/risk considerations and use. Two timber seat/tables settings in poor condition at Kilkivan will be replaced with existing surplus furniture. Installation of signs – Cooloola Coast Smaller signs on totem poles at playgrounds and high use picnic shelters are still to be installed, as well as additional signage on existing park identification signs. Gympie Memorial Park & Jaycee Way Works in Gympie Memorial Park, the surrounding streetscaping are almost complete. Improvements and replanting of flood and vehicle damaged plants in Jaycee Way and Nelson Reserve will be undertaken at a later time when resources permit. Hazard reduction burns – Cooloola Cove Further improvements to firebreaks in Cooloola Cove reserves have been completed. Hazard reduction burns, managed by Qld Rural Fire Brigade personnel and planned for the second week in August, have been delayed by recent wet weather. These burns may proceed as soon if weather conditions permit. Coastcare works – Tin Can Bay Foreshore

As part of funding agreement works, Coastcare will be undertaking planting of suitable plants in locations along the foreshore where group members have removed environmental weeds. Mary Street Banner poles The installation of 6 banner poles in Mary Street is currently underway. The sites for the poles were selected on a number of factors including visibility of the banner, and location of underground services. The banner poles will be utilised for advertising of Council corporate themes, major iconic community events of regional significance and Christmas/New Year season greetings. The banner poles offer a safe and low cost option of providing opportunities for the above purposes and will assist in promoting these events as well as improving the aesthetics of the Mary Street scape. A number of suitable events, such as the Gold Rush Festival, will be utilised as trials for the banners in the coming months. Community Services Directorate have advised that they will assist in investigating sites for placing community banners in safe locations to eliminate the safety concerns that the current site, over Mary Street, where the members of the community are placing themselves at risk by walking on shop awnings to attach their banners. Flood related works Albert Park Touch Fields The number one Touch field has been top dressed and will be in use from or prior to the 19th September. Works on the second touch field should continue from that date, weather conditions permitting A second top dressing of field one will be scheduled for the summer Touch Foot ball season break, to complete the renovation of this field. A second top dressing presently would not be beneficial to the growth of the turf and would require a further delay in putting the field back in to use. Albert Park main oval Sub-surface drainage works will be undertaken on two sections of the oval in early September. Other works to be undertaken at the same time will include surface level corrections and re-turfing of affected areas.

Parks Capital Works Exhibition Road seating Four seats and associated concrete works have been installed at selected locations along Exhibition Road. This project is now complete, although the planting of two or three suitably located shade trees will be undertaken separately from other funding. Improvements to One Mile Ovals Works should commence in late September/early October. Chatsworth Park At the time of writing this report, Council was awaiting advice from the State Government on the success or otherwise of an application for funding to assist in improving the facilities and parking areas at this park, with improvements proposed to be undertaken in conjunction with Parks Contributions funded works. Gympie Lions Park Playground renovation - Lake Alford Quotes for refurbishment of play equipment to remain in the playground and for new toddler suitable equipment have been sought. Costs for other elements of the project are being investigated. The Parks Manager will be attending a meeting of the Gympie Lions to discuss the possible involvement of the organisation in the project. The revised playground will be deliberately targeted towards the 1 – 6 year old age group only, with equipment suitable for older children not included.

9/3 Indoor Plants – Internal Use and External Hire

Re: W33/09/11 Indoor plants – internal use and external hire From: Parks Manager – Mr E French File: 4-1-16-0005 Date: 30 August 2011

Report: (Parks Manager – E.G. French) Overview: Parks has for many years supplied indoor plants to

Council offices and functions at no cost to the internal customer, and provided a hire service to external customers. With more realistic costs being imposed on external customers, the demand for external hire has reduced.

The number of plants of suitable quality available for

replacement in to Council offices, for use at Council functions and for external customers is now less than required and significant expenditure on replacement plants is needed, if the practice is to continue.

Parks personnel are also required at times to affect

the change over of plants, remove office plants for the Christmas break and subsequently return same, transport plants to and from some Council functions and assist external customers at times.

The Parks Manager is seeking Council approval for a

change to practices to reduce costs to the Parks section and to enable better use of Parks resources on Parks related operations.

Op Plan: 1.3 (ii), 2.3 (i), 3.3 (iv) Budget: Parks operational budgets Consultation: Parks staff, General Manager Works Eastern Division Issues: Purchase of replacement plants, maintenance of

same and other minor works not covered by recoverable costs, and operation of this service comes out of funds allocated to Parks operations.

Risk Analysis: Provision of interior plants can be outsourced and

funded from accommodation budgets. Discussion: Significant expenditure is required to purchase a number of quality and various sized indoor plants to continue to replace existing plants as required as well as to supply a small number of Council and external customer functions.

It is the preference of the Parks Manager that no further expenditure on indoor plants be undertaken, and that those departments that utilise indoor plants make their own arrangements regarding the supply of plants for offices and functions. Parks resources need to be focussed on Parks related operations. It would be timely to phase out the current practices before any further costs to Parks are incurred in the purchasing of replacement stock. Approximately $8,000 has been expended over the past 6 years on purchasing replacement plants, and an estimated $5,000 of new stock is required to meet existing arrangements. There are a number of businesses that offer suitable indoor plant hire services.

W33/09/11 Moved: Cr G.L. Engeman Seconded: Cr R.A. Gâté Recommend that Council refer the phase-out of internally sourced

plants for use in Council offices and functions, to the Draft Budget Meeting.

Further that Council authorise the Parks Manager to not purchase new stock this year, pending a decision on outsourcing this service.

Re: W40/09/11 Land Protection Monthly Report From: Lands Protection Manager B Curley File: 4-1-16-00005 Date: 30 August 2011

Report: (Land Protection Manager – B Curley)

General Council’s draft ‘Pest Management Plan 2011-2015’ has been released for public inspection from 25th August to 22nd September 2011. It is available at Council’s Public Offices and under “What’s New” on the Council’s web site. Any submissions regarding this draft plan must be in writing and be submitted to Council before 5pm on 22nd September. Biosecurity Queensland has released a ‘Hendra Virus Summary’ on 1 August. The indicated that the number of locations in Queensland with confirmed Hendra virus this year is eight. Further information regarding Hendra virus is available on the Biosecurity Queensland website. Declared Pest Plant Management Council spray crews have been chemically-treating Class 2 pest weeds on Council managed roadsides including Giant Rat’s Tail Grass, Parthenium and Mother of Millions throughout the region. Council has not yet received any ‘Element 5’ (declared pests on main roads) funding for this financial year from Department of Main Roads. Until this funding is available, Lands Protection staff are unable to commit resources to controlling Class 2 weeds on main roads within the region. Lands Protection Officers have continued inspecting properties for Giant Rat’s Tail Grass, Groundsel, Parthenium and other declared pests within the region. Advice letters have been forwarded to landholders with identified declared pests, therefore encouraging voluntary compliance with the management of these declared pests. Lands Protection Officers will follow-up on reinspections as part of the process. Declared Pest Animal Management Lands Protection 1080 operator staff have begun baiting as part of the Council’s biannual 1080 wild dog baiting program. Baiting operations with these syndicates will be conducted from 29th August through until

around mid-September. One-off 1080 baiting will be facilitated outside of the biannual program where necessary. Lands Protection staff are working with land holders to continue to ‘calicivirus’ inject cage-trapped rabbits within populations and release the infected rabbits back into populations to enable virus spread throughout rabbit populations in the region. Community Engagement DEEDI have released the draft ‘Biosecurity Bill’. This Bill, when finalised (which is likely to be in 2013) will replace the Land Protection (Pest and Stock Route Management) Act 2002. The Lands Protection Manager attended a two-hour ‘information briefing’ hosted by Biosecurity Queensland and held in Brisbane on the 19th of August 2011. Submissions for the draft Bill has been extended a further two weeks until 2nd of September 2011. Officers are in the process of formalising comments to submit to the State Government regarding this proposed Bill.

The Lands Protection Manager has continued liaising with ‘Office of the Coordinator General’ representatives in relation to declared Class 2 weeds identified on Coordinator General properties during ongoing inspections. Lands Protection Officers will continue monitoring for compliant pest management on ‘Coordinator General’ lands. The Coordinator General’s office have advised they will be passing on Council’s compliance letters to lessees for them to implement control of declared weeds where lessees are obligated to control these under their lease agreement. On Coordinator General properties where leases are not in place, the Coordinator General’s Office has been arranging for treatment of these declared weeds with approved weed management contractors.

13/2 Parthenium Management Re: W41/09/11 Parthemium Management From: Minister for Agriculture, Food and Regional Economies, Hon

Tim Mulherin MP, GPO Box 60, Brisbane Qld 4001 File: 1-2-10-0010 Doc # 1513479 Date: Received 29 July 2011 Previous Council considerations: W36/05/11

Recommend that the correspondence be received. Further that the Chairman of Works & Services be authorised to provide the Editor of the South Burnett Times with a report on Council’s commitment to managing parthenium weed. Further that Council write to the Minister for Primary Industries seeking funding for parthenium control in all waterways in the Region.

“Thank you for your letter of 18 May 2011 seeking additional support from the Minister’s Flood Fund for parthenium management. The government is aware that the floods caused Parthenium to spread and has been able to provide on-off funding to your area. Although the government is unable to provide further funding, Biosecurity Queensland, a service of the Department of Employment, Economic Development and Innovation (DEEDI), will continue to support efforts by landholders and local government to control this weed through the provision of advice and information and the uptake of biological control. The $40,000 in assistance along with the input of your Council, South Burnett Regional Council, Cherbourg Aboriginal Shire Council and affected landholders contributing cash, labour and resources, made this program a success of which all parties should be proud. The program is almost complete, and preliminary surveys by Biosecurity Queensland indicate that the control that was undertaken has been effective. Parthenium remains an on-going problem for the area and this weed will require on-going control into the future. As you are aware, Parthenium is a Class 2 declared pest under the Land Protection (Pest and Stock Route Management) Act 2002 and affected landholders are responsible for controlling it on their land. The funding support that was provided was short term assistance to enable landholders in key areas to manage the immediate impacts and spread of the weed. This will assist their ability to manage the weed into the future.

If you require any further information regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to contact Mr Bob Parker of DEEDI on telephone 07 3896 3288 or email [email protected].” Report: (Land Protection Manager – B Curley)

Council’s correspondence dated 18 May 2011 refers: It has been brought to Council’s attention that $40,000 has been allocated from the ‘Minister’s Flood Fund’ towards a one-off Parthenium weed control program for infested sections of Moonda Wamba, Wild Horse and Barambah Creeks within the Gympie Regional Council area. Council commends this on-ground initiative and will continue to work cooperatively with Biosecurity Queensland and surrounding Council’s with pest management issues, including coordinated Parthenium management actions for this program. Parthenium is a Class 2 weed, as well as a ‘Weed of National Significance’ (WONS) which is currently not widespread throughout the Gympie regional area. Parthenium has, however, been surveyed located along other riparian zones including Wide Bay and Nangur Creeks. This spread of Parthenium was significantly exacerbated by flooding events that occurred along these creeks in recent months. Council requests that you consider increasing the grant from the ‘Minister’s Flood Fund’ to extend on-ground one-off Parthenium treatment to other affected areas within the region. Financially supported on-ground coordinated Parthenium treatment through this fund would assist land holders to control Parthenium on their lands and therefore would be supported by Council. Should you require any further information in relation to this matter, please contact Council’s General Manager Works Western Division, Mr G Curry (telephone 07 5481 0899). Overview: Minister for Food, Agriculture and Regional

Economies, the Honourable Tim Mulherin MP allocated from the Minister’s ‘Flood Fund’ earlier this year a $40,000 one-off Parthenium weed control program for infested section of Moonda Wamba, Wild Horse and Barambah Creeks within Gympie Region. Council, through resolution W36/05/11, wrote to the Minister requesting that he consider extending funding for this program to other creeks within the Gympie Region including Wide Bay and Nangur Creeks and their tributaries.

15/2 Gympie Sewage Treatment Plant Irrigation Scheme

Re: W43/09/11 Gympie Sewage Treatment Plant Irrigation Scheme

From: Director of Engineering Services – R.A. Fredman File: Date: 15 August 2011

Report: (Director of Engineering Services – R.A. Fredman)

As part of the Gympie Sewage Treatment Plant upgrade currently under construction, an irrigation scheme within the site boundaries is to be undertaken. Further extension of the irrigation area will be required in the future to satisfy development approval conditions for the Sewage Treatment Plant. These conditions specify that only 4.3ML/day of the ultimate design flow of 6.0ML/day average dry weather flow from the treatment plant will be permitted to the Mary River for environmental

flows. This is not a problem at present as the flow from the plant to the river is currently below 4.3ML/day. In order to quantify future requirements, Worley Parsons (the consultant responsible for the design of the treatment plant and construction phase assistance) was commissioned to undertake an analysis of effluent disposal for the Gympie Sewage Treatment Plant. The analysis determined that: 1. A substantial amount of the 1.7ML/day that will ultimately need to be

reused (in order for the plant to reach full capacity) will be able to be used around the Sewage Treatment Plant and at the golf course.

2. Further areas (in addition to the Sewage Treatment Plant and golf

course) of irrigation will be required in the future. Options could include:

a) land along the Mary River to Queens Park and potentially to

Memorial Park/Albert Park b) land across the Mary River (ie near Nestle Tree Farm) c) farmland north of the Sewage Treatment Plant site.

If irrigation at the Sewage Treatment Plant site is implemented and the golf course system is upgraded then these areas may not be required for many years.

3. While the areas are suitable for irrigation, monitoring of the irrigation

and scheduling of irrigation is a critical requirement.

A critical component of the MCU (material change of use) and subsequent development approval for the upgrade of the Sewage Treatment Plant is the monitoring of effluent irrigation areas and third party agreement areas. From staff discussions with the owners of the golf course and knowledge of past operations it is of some concern that the necessary monitoring of the irrigation area will not be satisfactorily completed. It is also considered that irrigation may not be effectively applied because of staffing and financial constraints. This may leave Council vulnerable to having to find other irrigation areas in the future which may require compulsory acquisition, or to having to provide staff to manage irrigation at the golf course. The pipeline to the golf course, effluent pond and pumps are owned by the golf course owner.

works have been suspended until ground conditions improve. Subsequently the section south of the booster pump to the creek will be placed on hold, and works will continue south of the creek.

Should the ground conditions fail to improve within a

reasonable time period, the length of the underbore proposed at the Teewah Creek crossing may have to be reconsidered. The cost of this operation is significant.

Overview: A property owner in Southside has requested that Council reimburse the sewerage connection fee of $650.00 on the grounds relating to the extent of work performed by themselves both prior and post construction. The property owner feels that they have been disadvantaged as the request for extension to sewer was made by their neighbour. The extension resulted in a manhole and associated sewer pipes being installed on their property. The property owner suggests that they assisted Council by spending three (3) days removing fences, garden edging, pruning trees and the removal of one fruit tree completely. The property owner argues that this pre construction works saved Council two (2) days, having been advised prior that the works would take at least five (5) days and was completed in three (3) days.

Government Association, 8 Giels Court, Deakin ACT 2600 File: 1-4-05-0001 Doc # 1514151 Date: 28 July 2011 Letter addressed to Mayor R Dyne:

“We achieved the Roads to Recovery Program because of strong and united local government campaigning in 2000. Further campaigns by local government have been very successful with two extensions to the Program and a funding increase of $350m per annum in 2009. By the time the current Program ends in 2014 more than $4.5 billion in additional funding will have been provided for local roads. It is now time for local government to again mount a campaign for increased and ongoing Roads to Recovery Program funding. There is no question that local government needs the funding. The Australian Local Government Association (ALGA) commissioned research, released at the 2010 National Local Roads and Transport Congress in Bunbury, which shows that the national shortfall in the level of funding for local roads amounts to about $1.2 billion annually.

ALGA will be launching local government’s Roads to Recovery campaign at the 2011 National Local Roads and Transport congress being held in Mount Gambier from 16-18 November. Our campaign needs the support of every council and in advance of the launch I am asking your Council to pass a resolution of support. A suggested text for your Council’s motion is attached. The motion calls for the Roads to Recovery Program to be made permanent at a rate that recognises the backlog of needs on local roads and a continuation of the current popular and successful arrangements. These arrangements provide all councils with certainty of funding and give them the control over the works to be funded. You will notice that the motion does not link the ongoing Roads to Recovery Program to any source of funding such as fuel excise. I have discussed the suggested wording for the motion with all state associations and we have agreed not to link the campaign to a funding source at this time because of uncertainty arising from the announcements to review fuel excise by the Productivity Commission, the review of the Financial Assistance Grants and the Henry Taxation Review recommendations on road user charging. You may be assured that ALGA will be making the strongest possible representations to these reviews to protect and improve local government’s financial position. As part of our campaign, it is important to ensure that national political leaders are left in no doubt about local government views. I am therefore asking that you write to the Prime Minister, the Leader of the Opposition, Minister for Infrastructure and Transport, Opposition spokesperson for Transport and your local Federal Member of Parliament to advise them of councils’ support for a new Roads to Recovery Program. I have enclosed some possible text for such letters which you might find useful. To help coordinate the campaign, I would appreciate your advice when council has passed this motion. Our advocacy on this vital issue will be strengthened by a show of unity and it is important that as many councils as possible attend the Congress in Mount Gambier for the launch of the Roads to Recovery campaign to show local government’s strong support for its extension. I will be writing separately with a brochure on the arrangements for the Congress. In the meantime you can register for the Congress using the ALGA website and take advantage of cheap “early bird” registrations rates. I have no doubt that by working together we can successfully take the argument to the Federal Government on Federal local road funding and achieve a new Roads to Recovery Program.”

17/2 2011 National Local Roads and Transport Congress

“I am writing to invite you to the 2011 National Local Roads and Transport Congress, the theme of which is Better Roads are Safer Roads, in Mount Gambier, South Australia from 16-18 November. The Congress features a strong line up of road safety experts, an international speaker from Canada and political speakers from across the

spectrum. The program also includes a ‘hypothetical’ to discuss road safety issues in the community. Road safety is important to all of us. Sadly all our communities have been touched by death and injury caused by road crashes. While there are many causes of road crashes, there is no doubt that one of the best ways to improve road safety is through good roads and the key to good roads is funding. The ALGA Board will use the Congress to launch local government’s campaign to renew Roads to Recovery, the primary source of Federal funding for local roads. I recently wrote to all Councils asking them to pass a resolution on Roads to Recovery as part of that campaign. We will build on those resolutions with the Roads to Recovery renewal campaign launch at the Congress. Local government needs you to be there at the launch of the Roads to Recovery campaign to send the strongest possible and united message to the federal Government and the Opposition. The message has to be loud and clear: roads to recovery must be continued, made permanent and increased to a level that recognises the shortfall of funding on local roads of $1.2 billion annually. Each delegate will be personally involved in the launch of the campaign – so we need as many delegates as possible to show Canberra the importance of Roads to Recovery to our communities. We have been successful in the past with renewal of the Roads to Recovery Program and we will be successful again if we work together with that clear objective. Enclosed is the registration brochure with details of the arrangements for the congress. I look forward to seeing you in Mount Gambier.”

17/3 Report from 11th Queensland Weed Symposium held in Mackay 31/07/11 – 03/08/11

Re: W49/09/11 Report from Weed Symposium held in Mackay From: Cr G Engeman File: 4-1-16-0005 Date: 22 August 2011

Report: (Cr G Engeman)

I attended this event in the company of 2 Council staff members. We drove as this was the most cost effective way of travelling and took 10 hours each direction. I thank the staff for agreeing to this as it saved considerable Council funds. The Symposium was extremely worthwhile with 17 presentation speakers on the Monday, field trips around Mackay on Tuesday and 12 further presentation speakers on the Wednesday. The subject of the presentations was largely practical and current covering many invasive weeds, new Legislation, peri-urban challenges and management techniques. John Thompson, Chief of Bio-Security gave the opening address and set the tone with a straight forward presentation on National and Queensland issues, the new Bio-Security Bill to be in force by 2013 and the need to work together with all stake holders in a co-ordinated manner. He confirmed that Queensland is the frontline State in the war on weeds and invasive pests. John Morris was another key speaker and as Chair of the National Lantana Wons Taskforce was also very direct in appraising the threat of weeds to Australia – effective management and control of weeds is dogged by political self-interest, dumbness and political opinion! Unfortunately he noted that media and public limelight is held by animal health issues to the detriment of the more calamitous weed threat threatening our declining ability to feed a rapidly growing world population. Weed management is often a poisoned chalice for many public servants and politicians with a lack of funding, no more land available, declining production, less resources, less science, less support and rising costs and a lack of community interest. He quoted Julian Cribb who stated in 2010 that Climate Change is NOT the central issue for humanity going forward - it is food production. Defence and Agriculture are both geared to manage threats however the lack of funding for weed management could be covered from the $2Billion wasted in Defence budgets each year.

He left us with a pertinent reminder: Farmers and scientists are THE most important human beings alive. The world has forgotten this. It needs to be reminded every day! A hard hitting Symposium that challenged and informed delegates and every presentation reinforced the need to increase our efforts. I urge our Council to consider the importance of the weed threat to our local and national economy and increase our efforts to support local farmers and environment groups in fighting this war.

17/4 August City Farm Report

Re: W50/09/11 August City Farm Report From: Cr J Walker File: 4-1-16-0005 Date: 25 August 2011

Report: (Cr J.A. Walker)

Participants for the month, 12 CTC, 1 Jobmatch, 2 Skill centred, 3 Community Service, 1 Green Corps, 1 James Nash Student,11 Centrelink volunteers, and 10 regular volunteers from TCB, Cooloola Cove, Rainbow Beach & Gympie. A total of 886 combined volunteer hours for this period, thus giving us 1827 hours YTD for both sites. Free trees are a bit slow as is normal for this time of year, but a total of 157 since last month as well as delivering 25 to council for revegetation planting. Upcoming projects for Gympie site is the replacement of irrigation in the upper nursery, planting of a bush tucker garden, seed collection and I.D., propagation, pruning and potting on of plants. Crows and possums are causing a bit of trouble at the site. Helen has agreed to talk at the Gympie Library on the 8th Sept for Adult Learners Week, with the topic this year of ‘Seeds and Weeds’.

Tin Can Bay nursery is refurbishing the Cooloola Community Complex garden, maintaining some other council gardens and collecting sees along with propagation and plant nursery maintenance. They have also been busy with extensive potting on, research on propagation of difficult heath species, data input, maintenance of TCB library gardens, Rainbow Beach Shelter and Kidd Strait gardens. They are in the process of sourcing plants for the Frasier Island Revegatation Project and FINIA. Tracey is meeting with Ed French and Amy Gosling to discuss wetland demo as per the Grant. The Lake McKenzie, Fraser Island project is nearing completion. The group has started work on the SES building gardens at TCB. Work is slow due to the very rocky condition and lots of clay at the site. The environmental walk has been cleared and is now walkable, this is situated at the back of the TCB City Farm site, where some species have been planted and other est. plants have been cleaned around. Main Roads project to preserve Acacia Attenuate and Boronia Rivularis that will be removed because of road works have been collected and propagated. Tracey is meeting with Main roads reps for the selecting of site for revegetation.

17/5 Speed Limits along The Esplanade, Tin Can Bay

Re: W51/09/11 Speed Limits along The Esplanade, Tin Can Bay

From: 11 residents of Tin Can Bay File: 4-8-07-0008-01 Doc # 1520540 Date: 29 August 2011 Reference: letter addressed to Cr G Engeman

“We are writing to Council requesting that consideration be given to the reduction of the current mix of speed limits to a consistent 40 kms along the entire length of the Esplanade and Toolara Road, Tin Can Bay, that is from the intersection of Tin Can Bay Road and the Esplanade to the already existing 40kms limit at the Crab Creek end of Toolara Road. Given our position on the corner of Gar Street and Esplanade, we are, unfortunately, ideally placed to see the near accidents that occur from

time to time on this particular stretch of road given that it encompasses the bike rink, library, children’s play area, picnic & bbq shelters and toilet facilities. Additionally the car park in front of the play area is the initial bus stop for Victory College in Gympie and twice daily during school terms there are many school children in and around the car park. With the walk/bike way running the length of the foreshore, it is a mecca for local and visiting families and/or children and “kids being kids” they are often not paying enough attention to road traffic which all too frequently is travelling high speed, far in excess of the speed limit. In recent years the traffic volume has increased significantly as Tin Can Bay becomes more popular both as a place to live and a tourist destination and many improvements have been carried out by Council to encourage further enjoyment of our attractive foreshore. This stretch of road is sign-posted as a “tourist foreshore drive” and though we appreciate that drivers are at all times required to be concentrating on the road, the fact is they are distracted by the scenery and water views and signs indicating the change in speed limit from 50kms to 60kms to 40kms along this single roadway can easily be missed. We have included the names and contact details of other property owners along the Esplanade/Toolara Road, all of whom support this request - in fact we found none that didn’t. We could have included many more together with numerous stories of “near misses” due to high speed and/or lack of due care and attention by drivers using this road. We genuinely believe that the reduction of the speed limit to 40 kms for the entire length of the Esplanade and Toolara Road will improve the safety and enjoyment of our foreshore for both local residents and visitors alike.”

17/6 Request for Sealing of the Car Park on The Esplanade

Re: W52/09/11 Request for Sealing of Car Park on The Esplanade

From: Residents of Tin Can Bay File: 4-8-07-0008-01 Doc # 1520540 Date: 29 August 2011 Reference: Letter addressed to Cr Engeman

“We are writing to Council requesting that consideration be given to the sealing of the car park on the Esplanade opposite Gar Street in Tin Can Bay. Of the three areas in Tin Can Bay that include children’s play grounds, toilet facilities and bbq/picnic shelters, this particular area would be the largest and most frequently used due to it’s central location, high visibility and proximity to a sandy beach. During dry periods this car park becomes a dust bowl and when it is wet, due to the extremely uneven surface, large puddles develop taking many days to dry out and making is very dirty underfoot. Constant usage of this unsealed gravel car park also contributes to the continual pavement failure of the Esplanade/Gar Street intersection. This is the only unsealed car park along the foreshore and quite frankly is an eyesore, while on a personal level it is a dirty, dusty environment for ourselves and our neighbours as our proximity to it is like living near a dirt road in the middle of suburbia. We appreciate that the Council has many commitments resulting from the recent floods however whilst a number of new, sealed car parks and other improvements have been created or undertaken along the foreshore over recent years, this car park has had little attention in the 11+ years that we have owned our property and we would ask that work is carried out to bring it up to the standard of all other car parks in Tin Can Bay.”

Bruce Highway Upgrade Strategy - Gympie Regional Council Submission September 2011

_____________________________________________________________________

_____________________________________________________________________ Page (i)

Executive Summary The Queensland Government has released a Bruce Highway Upgrade Strategy for public consultation. The draft Strategy indicates that the Bruce Highway between Cooroy and Curra may not be upgraded for 20 years. Gympie Regional Council believes that this work is needed much sooner given the existing deficiencies and crash history. Specifically, this part of the highway:

• has the worst safety record of any section of the Bruce Highway according to the Australian Road Assessment Program (AusRAP)

• is subject to flooding at regular frequencies and for long periods of time • experiences severe congestion and platooning of traffic • passes through the town of Gympie where highway traffic encounters 7

sets of traffic signals • is holding back the economic development of the region by throttling

the development of new industrial land and restricting the movement of over-mass and dimension vehicles

• will restrict population growth in Gympie as the ultimate traffic capacities of major intersections through the town are reached in the near future.

Council supports the planning for the Cooroy to Curra upgrade that has been carried out by the Department of Transport and Main Roads and endorsed by State and Federal Governments. Council is strongly of the view that the highway upgrading is already well overdue. This report makes nine recommendations on the draft Bruce Highway Strategy and provides details supporting those recommendations.

Recommendation A: Safety That Sections C1 and D2 of the Bruce Highway Upgrade be constructed as soon as possible to minimise future injuries and loss of life. Construction of the Bruce Highway upgrade from Traveston to Curra is the only real solution to the terrible crash history of the existing road. The crash rate is increasing and possible deferral of the major upgrade for up to 20 years is unacceptable to our community.

_____________________________________________________________________ Page (ii)

Recommendation B: Construction Staging That Section C1includes a link to and from Tin Can Bay Road along the proposed new highway alignment.

Recommendation C: Flooding That Section C1 includes a link to Tin Can Bay Road to enhance transport efficiency during flooding by providing flood access between Brisbane and Gympie.

Recommendation D: Traffic in Gympie That Sections C1 and D2 be brought forward to relieve traffic congestion in Gympie which straddles the highway.

Recommendation E: Economic Development That Section C1 includes a link to Tin Can Bay Road to enhance economic development in the Gympie Region.

Recommendation F: Emergency Access That Sections C and D of the Bruce Highway Upgrade be brought forward because alternative routes for incident management are not suitable for highway traffic.

_____________________________________________________________________

_____________________________________________________________________ Page (iii)

Recommendation G: Economic Analysis That the timing of the highway upgrading be based on a thorough economic analysis which recognises the realistic costs of the “do nothing” option.

Recommendation H: Planning That planning for the highway upgrade proceeds quickly to give certainty for development around Gympie and to give confidence to the transport industry.

Recommendation I: Construction Timings That construction of Section C1 is completed in the next five to ten years, including the connection to Tin Can Bay Road for east bound traffic and flood access. Construction of Section D2 may be staged with at least two lanes (plus overtaking opportunities) constructed to Curra in the next ten years and four lanes within fifteen years. Notes:

1. The Department of Transport and Main Roads’ planning for the Cooroy to Curra Bruce Highway upgrade defines “Section C” as being from Traveston Road to Keefton Road.

2. “Section D” is from Keefton Road to north of the rail overpass at Curra.

_____________________________________________________________________ Page 1

1 Introduction This document is Council’s formal response to the State Government’s request for submissions on the draft Bruce Highway Upgrade Strategy. It focuses on the most dangerous section of the Bruce Highway in the Region, and arguably in Queensland, the single carriageway highway south of Curra. The Bruce Highway north and south of Gympie has a number of long standing deficiencies that can only be addressed through the major upgrading works identified in the Queensland Government’s planning for Cooroy to Curra Bruce Highway Upgrade Project. The State Government’s draft Bruce Highway Upgrade Strategy proposes the following construction timeframes for highway upgrading in the Gympie Region:

• Traveston Road to Keefton Road (Section C of the Cooroy to Curra upgrade) by 2031/32;

• Keefton Road to Curra (Section D) by 2031/32.

This submission:

• describes the shortcomings of the existing highway in terms of safety, flood immunity and other aspects;

• supports earlier construction of Section C of the Cooroy to Curra upgrade;

• proposes Section C includes a link to Tin Can Bay Road;

• proposes earlier and staged construction of Section D;

• requests the earliest possible completion of planning and acquisition of land for the upgrade.

2 Safety Imperatives The need for the Cooroy to Curra Bruce Highway Upgrade to address safety issues has been recognised by the State and Federal Governments.

Extract from Cooroy to Curra Newsletter,

Department of Transport and Main Roads, August 2009

The December 2010 report of the Australian Road Assessment Program (AusRAP) identifies Cooroy to Gympie as having the worst safety record of any section of the Bruce Highway. The report states that it “carried approximately 13,800 vehicles per day and experienced 173 casualty crashes and 25 deaths between 2003 and 2007.” It goes on to say that “road authorities should concentrate on delivering a ten year strategic program of safety improvements to reduce risk to road users.” The draft Bruce Highway Strategy does not do this. According to the same report, the crash rate is worsening. Despite a number of minor improvements having been completed, the Gympie – Childers section has experienced a 20% increase in casualty crashes and a 4% increase in deaths in the five year period to Dec 2007 compared to the previous five years. Over the same period, traffic volumes have increased by 15%. In other words, the casualty crash rate is outstripping traffic growth. On the Bruce Highway between Traveston and Curra, crashes have killed 35 people and seriously injured more than 220 people since January 1999.

Road's

Role in Fatal

Highway Crashes

three fatal crashes – six dead –

on Bruce Highway between Gympie and Skyring Creek Road

There are a number of circumstances which contribute to the terrible safety record on this section of highway:

• long distance traffic, including a high percentage of large trucks, mixing with local traffic

• an unforgiving road alignment which falls far short of current design standards, and

• numerous at-grade intersections and property accesses, many with substandard geometry.

A significant number of Bruce Highway intersections in the Gympie Region do not have the most basic safety feature of a protected right turn lane. (Refer Table 2 and Appendix A for intersection locations.)

Delays in constructing Sections C and D of the Bruce Highway Upgrade will heighten the need to fund a range of improvements on the existing highway, including intersection works. As the Matilda intersection has shown, once traffic volumes pass 10,000 vehicles per day on this section of the Bruce Highway, even fully developed at-grade intersections will have a poor crash history. Overall, the increasing crash rate demonstrates that ongoing minor improvements are not the answer. There is an immediate requirement for the separation of opposing traffic flows by duplicating the road, and the provision of grade separated interchanges with appropriate connections to the local road network.

Source: Gympie Times 9 June 2011

Recommendation A: Safety That Sections C1 and D2 of the Bruce Highway Upgrade be constructed as soon as possible to minimise future injuries and loss of life. Construction of the Bruce Highway upgrade from Traveston to Curra is the only real solution to the terrible crash history of the existing road. The crash rate is increasing and possible deferral of the major upgrade for up to 20 years is unacceptable to our community.

3 Construction Staging It is understood that the current estimated cost for full construction of the highway upgrade from Keefton Road to Curra (Section D) exceeds $3.0 billion. Council appreciates the difficulties in funding such a large project and supports staged implementation if that could provide earlier benefits to safety, flood immunity and reduced traffic congestion. There is major industry to the east of Gympie which generates heavy vehicle traffic through Gympie via the Bruce Highway and a series of town streets.

• Camp Kerr Military Range The military range brings explosives by road from the south through Gympie via the Bruce Highway, Brisbane Road, Cootharaba Road and Tin Can Bay Road. This route runs directly past four schools (Monkland State Primary School, One Mile State Primary School, Gympie State High School and Gympie Special School) and the One Mile Ovals, Gympie’s major sporting venue. Safety concerns have been raised about this route in the past and they remain unresolved.

• Laminex factory at Toolara This factory is the largest manufacturer of Medium Density Fibreboard (MDF) in the world. It uses pine woodchips from the forests east of Gympie and distributes the finished MDF by road via Gympie.

• Commercial fishing at Tin Can Bay and forestry also generate heavy truck traffic through Gympie.

• Tourist traffic bound for the Cooloola Coast (Tin Can Bay, Rainbow Beach and Fraser Island) relies on the same roads through Gympie as commercial traffic.

The proposed new highway alignment from Keefton Road to Tin Can Bay Road will service these industries well and provide safety and congestion improvements in Gympie. In general, possible staging of Section D construction needs to be carefully considered as a way to provide early road safety and other benefits. Potential construction stages are shown in Table 3 and Figure 1.

Table 3: Possible Staging Options for Keefton Road to Curra

Stage Description Benefits 1. Keefton

Road to Gympie (two lanes)

Construct this in conjunction with Section C. Construct two lanes of the new highway from Keefton Road to Tin Can Bay Road, including overtaking lanes or short sections of dual carriageway to provide overtaking opportunities. North – south highway traffic would continue to travel on existing highway through Gympie.

• Provides flood free route from Brisbane to Gympie.

• Takes dangerous goods (i.e. explosives bound for Camp Kerr) out of urban traffic in Gympie and away from schools and sporting fields.

• Takes substantial heavy truck traffic out of Gympie by providing an alternative route to the east.

• Removes some eastbound traffic from the existing highway between Keefton Road and Gympie to improve safety and congestion.

• Provides an improved tourist route to Maryborough and north.

2. Gympie to Curra (two lanes)

Construct two lanes of the new highway from Tin Can Bay Road to Curra, including overtaking lanes or short sections of dual carriageway to provide overtaking opportunities.

• Removes substantial traffic from the existing highway to provide improvements to safety and relief of congestion in Gympie.

• Provides a suitable route for over-mass and dimension vehicles.

• Provides a suitable alternative route for highway traffic during incidents on the highway.

3. Keefton Road to Curra (four lanes)

Complete dual carriageway construction to provide four lanes from Keefton Road to Curra with grade separated interchanges.

• Completes separation of high speed traffic and provides for long term transport needs.

Council would expect that planning for Section D of the Bruce Highway Upgrade (Gympie to Curra) would proceed without delay and would include consideration of construction staging options.

Recommendation B: Construction Staging That Section C includes a link to and from Tin Can Bay Road along the proposed new highway alignment. This link will provide flood access to Brisbane and remove east bound trucks from Gympie streets.

4 Flooding Eleven sections of the highway between Traveston and Curra flood at a frequency of between ten and fifteen years. Flooding locations are listed in Table 4. The planned Cooroy to Curra upgrade will address all these locations.

Bruce Highway in Gympie, January 2011

In the past 20 years, the highway around Gympie has been cut for significant periods on five occasions; 1991, 1992, 1999, 2010 and 2011. In the floods of early 2011 the highway south of Gympie was cut for five days at a time and for a total of seven days in a ten day period. It was a reminder of the importance of this section of highway to the rest of Queensland as the transport of medical supplies, food, fuel and other necessities stopped. Alternative routes for highway traffic when the highway is flooded at Kybong, Woondum and Traveston comprise much longer, lower standard, flood prone Council and state-controlled roads. Often, when the highway is flooded south of the Gympie, the alternative routes are also cut. In the early 2011 event, an alternative but low standard route existed intermittently (ie between local stream flooding) via Pomona, Kin Kin and Wolvi on the Kin Kin Road. It became necessary to load limit this route when it began to deteriorate rapidly and safety concerns were raised by local police as truck and car traffic increased. Alternative routes when the highway is flooded in the Gympie town area comprise local town streets which are unsuitable for high volumes of traffic and for heavy vehicles.

Gympie Times 14 January 2011

Trucks bring vital supplies URGENTLY needed provisions got through to the shortage-hit Gympie, Maryborough and Bundaberg regions yesterday, when police escorted an emergency convoy of trucks around flood waters and across damaged and slippery mountain roads.

The truck convoy linked up with police near Pomona yesterday morning, after acting police superintendent Ron Van Saane obtained special permission from Premier Anna Bligh to use the roads, which had recently been subject to a 15-tonne load limit imposed in response to truck-related damage. About an hour-and-a-half later, the trucks emerged around the winding bitumen at the Gympie end of Wolvi Road.

Table 4 shows that Sections C and D of the Cooroy to Curra project are critical in meeting the flood immunity targets stated in the draft Bruce Highway Strategy.

Modifying Section C to include a connection to Tin Can Bay Road would provide flood access between Brisbane and Gympie. It needs to be noted that the construction of Section A will not resolve any flooding issues, as it is already a flood-free section.

Gympie Times 9 January 2011

Flooding causes traffic chaos TRAFFIC on the Bruce Highway through Gympie ground to a stop this afternoon when the highway again went underwater near Kybong. The Inglewood Hill bridge had already cut off the main highway route with traffic redirected through via Pengellys Bridge, but that came with a number of problems for travellers.

Recommendation C: Flooding That Section C includes a link to Tin Can Bay Road to enhance transport efficiency during flooding by providing flood access between Brisbane and Gympie. Improving the flood immunity of the Bruce Highway around Gympie should not wait another 20 years.

5 Traffic Congestion and Safety in Gympie While the Bruce Highway north of Gympie passes through several small towns, Gympie is regarded by truck drivers as the major bottleneck on long distance hauls. Although the recent four-laning project in Gympie (Kidgell Street to Pine Street) has improved safety, highway traffic now encounters seven sets of traffic signals. The works are not a long term solution as traffic volumes on both the highway and the side streets continue to grow. Currently, the highway through Gympie carries approximately 20,000 vehicles per day. With current side road traffic of 6,000 vehicles per day at Excelsior Road and 12,000 per day at Monkland Street, the capacity of those two intersections will be reached soon after 2020 based on historic growth rates. Council considers those intersections to be at their final stage of development as the addition of more lanes or grade separation would require the resumption of a large number of properties and businesses. Construction of Section D of the Cooroy to Curra upgrade is the only feasible solution to providing for traffic growth in Gympie. Of the 20,000 vehicles on the highway each day in Gympie, approximately 3,000 are heavy commercial vehicles. Several sets of traffic signals are on relatively steep grades and semi-trailers and B-Doubles are regularly observed running red lights to avoid stopping on downhill slopes or having to start on steep uphill grades. Over-dimension vehicles, often bound for mines in Central Queensland are also forced to negotiate Gympie traffic. There have been two serious crashes this year between wide loads and oncoming traffic. Wide loads regularly damage bridges, signs, guideposts and guardrails.

Recommendation D: Traffic in Gympie That Sections C and D be brought forward to relieve traffic congestion in Gympie which straddles the highway.

6 Economic and Regional Development Supporting Industry Locally and State-wide The Bruce Highway in the Gympie Region supports industry across the state from tourism to mining. Approximately 15% of traffic on the highway north and south of Gympie is heavy commercial traffic moving approximately 35,000 tonnes of freight through Gympie annually. There can be no doubt that the standard of the highway, including low flood immunity, the 90 km/hr speed limit, traffic congestion and poor alignment is contributing to additional transport costs for industry. While Council does not have access to the number of over-mass and over-dimension vehicles moving through town, they are observed daily and there is a history of incidents involving these vehicles. Notably, the Normanby Overpass has been struck by high loads several times. Despite the clearance being increased from 4.6 metres to 5.0 metres in late 2009, the clearance is still far below the National Highway standard of 6.0 metres and vehicles with high loads are required to use the interchange ramps to avoid passing under the bridge. The ramps themselves are also sub-standard and are the subject of regular complaints from truck drivers whose vehicles bottom out on the sharp crests.

This over-height load struck the Normanby overpass in August 2009

The highway is not currently able to safely provide for over-dimension loads and there is a growing history of serious accidents involving such vehicles. The condition and/or design capacity of the Six Mile Creek Bridge on the southern side of Gympie also restricts the movement of over-mass vehicles. Some large mining equipment must currently use alternative and generally lower standard routes to the west.

Gympie Times 20 May 2011

Oversize traffic a new threat BRUCE HIGHWAY drivers face a new danger as an increasing number of massive transports roll north to the mines. In a single hour on the same day as Tuesday’s fatal accident near Tiaro, police reported 20 escorted oversize transports heading north between Gympie and Maryborough. Once every three minutes, southbound traffic would have passed a semi-trailer with a monster payload. Most of the trucks were hauling heavy machinery and equipment to service the Queensland mining boom. Tuesday’s fatality was only a few days after another serious but non-fatal smash on the Bruce Highway, involving two semi-trailers, a utility vehicle and a huge bridge member which blocked both lanes of the Bruce Highway at Spring Valley, north of Gympie. As economies such as Gladstone and Mackay prosper, concerns are now being raised about the collateral effect of heavy vehicle transit on the towns and cities that lie along the road to northern riches as highways deteriorate and the dangers to motorists escalate. Federal Member for Wide Bay Warren Truss said the accident highlighted short and long term issues as heavy vehicle traffic continued to increase. “The Bruce Highway is Queensland’s main artery and its upgrade has to be a priority,” Mr Truss said.

Industrial Growth in the Gympie Region Over the past five years, there has been a growing need for large lot industrial land near Gympie, particularly to the south and east. This demand is from both existing Gympie industries that need to expand and from companies outside Gympie which see the potential of area to service the Sunshine Coast and Brisbane.

The Queensland Government’s draft Wide Bay Burnett Regional Plan recognises the potential of the Gympie region. It states: Gympie’s proximity to South East Queensland offers competitive advantages including the availability of land with potential to accommodate industrial activities and access to the State’s freight network. This may be a dominant factor in the growth of Gympie into the future and is recognised by the extent of land made available for urban development. However, because the highway has a very poor crash history and has reached its capacity as a two-lane road, prospective developers of industrial land south of Gympie have been asked by the State Government to build grade separated interchanges and construct four lane sections of the Bruce Highway. Several proposals for industrial developments have now been abandoned for that reason. To the east of Gympie, where there are also suitable areas for industrial use, access to the Bruce Highway is also restricting that type of development. For any significant industrial land development to occur around Gympie, the Cooroy to Curra upgrade must be constructed at least to the proposed interchange at Tin Can Bay Road / Gympie Connection Road. Population Growth in Gympie The urban area of Gympie is split by the Mary River and the Bruce Highway with 6,000 people on the south-western side and 15,000 on the north-east.

Figure 2: The Bruce Highway divides the urban area of Gympie

_____________________________________________________________________ Page 20

The major urban development area in Gympie is at Southside (on the south-western side of the river and the highway). This is recognised in the draft Wide Bay Burnett Regional Plan. Southside is accessed via two bridges over the Mary River and two intersections with the Bruce Highway; at the Monkland Street intersection and at the Normanby Interchange. Currently, there are approximately 600 approved residential lots that have yet to be taken up on Southside. When that land is fully developed, traffic capacity on the two crossings of the Mary River will be reached, as will the capacity of the Bruce Highway / Monkland Street intersection and the Normanby Interchange. Section D of the highway upgrade is required by 2020 or soon after so that through traffic is removed from the town and urban growth can continue without further major intersection works. Certainty for Planning As noted previously, the Gympie Region is well located to take advantage of development pressures in South East Queensland. However, for growth in the Region to continue, certainty is needed regarding the future road network in the area. The corridor planning that Department of Transport and Main Roads has completed to date is high level planning. It remains subject to change to the extent that interchange locations and arrangements, road alignment and any related road upgrading works have not been determined. The development of land in the vicinity of the highway corridor is made much more difficult by this uncertainty. In short, design for Sections C and D should be in progress now so that Council and the community have certainty regarding the exact route and the associated property implications. The planning must also identify any major works that will be needed on other state-controlled roads and Council-controlled roads around Gympie to cater for the changes in traffic patterns that will occur, particularly when Section D is constructed.

Recommendation E: Economic Development That Section C includes a link to Tin Can Bay Road to enhance economic development in the Gympie Region. Sections C and D of the Bruce Highway upgrade are needed to support industry state-wide.

7 Alternative Routes for Incident Management With closures of the highway due to crashes or flooding, police and emergency service workers often need to divert highway traffic on to low standard state or Council controlled roads. South of Gympie, the alternative routes include Kin Kin Road, Coles Creek Road, Traveston Road, Traveston Crossing Road and the Mary Valley Highway. These are narrow sealed roads with low standard alignments, sections of pavement in poor condition and many private accesses. North of Gympie, the situation is even more difficult. Alternative routes when the highway is closed between Gympie and the Wide Bay Highway involve the use of much longer and lower standard roads through Widgee or Woolooga. They are generally unsuitable for use by semi-trailers or larger vehicles. Construction of Sections C and D of the Bruce Highway Upgrade will address this issue by leaving the existing highway as a suitable alternative route during highway closures.

Second serious crash near Gympie

A 63-YEAR-OLD man has been airlifted to Brisbane following a second serious crash near Gympie this morning. The collision occurred on the Gympie-Woolooga Road at Lower Wonga, one of a small number of alternative routes around a crash involving several trucks which closed the Bruce Highway earlier this morning. Gympie-Woolooga Road and the Bruce Highway are now both closed.

Recommendation F: Emergency Access That Sections C and D of the Bruce Highway Upgrade be brought forward because alternative routes for incident management are not suitable for highway traffic.

8 Consequences of Delaying Highway Upgrading The draft Bruce Highway Strategy provides for the Bruce Highway Upgrade between Traveston and Curra to be deferred for up to 20 years. This submission has outlined some of the consequences that such a delay is likely to have on safety, economic growth, traffic congestion and flood access. Further, it should be noted that the traffic volume on the rural sections of the highway between Traveston and Curra currently varies from 10,000 (at Curra) to 15,000 vehicles per day (at Traveston) and is growing at 4% per year. In ten years those volumes will be 14,000 to 21,000vpd and in 20 years, 21,000 to 32,000vpd – well in excess of the existing traffic between Cooroy and Traveston where Section B of the upgrade is currently under construction. While the major upgrading and realignment proposed by Department of Transport and Main Roads would be justifiable on safety grounds alone, Council expects that a realistic economic analysis would also support construction of the upgrade much earlier than the 20 years allowed in the draft strategy. Specifically, such an analysis would consider the costs associated with the “base case” – ie the costs of not constructing the major upgrade – some of which are listed in Table 5.

Table 5: Costs of deferring Sections C and D Works needed on the existing highway

Category Description Intersections In the shorter term, 22 at-grade intersections between

Traveston and Curra would need protected turn lanes constructed. As traffic grows, the busier intersections such as the Wide Bay Highway and Matilda intersections, which are already fully developed at-grade, may need grade separation. Traffic analysis should be carried out to determine the life of the existing intersections so that upgrading works can be programmed and funded until Sections C and D are constructed.

Pavement Much of the existing pavement on the Bruce Highway between Traveston and Curra is more than 20 years old and so is beyond its original design life. Major reconstruction would be required unless Sections C and D and the Cooroy to Curra project are constructed to remove heavy traffic from the old pavements.

Overtaking Traffic growth would require more overtaking lanes and, for safety reasons, the construction of a physical barrier in the centre of the road to prevent overtaking at other locations.

Width and property accesses

A large number of rural properties have direct access to the existing Bruce Highway. Managing safety at those property accesses will become increasingly difficult and will require works such as shoulder widening, turning lanes and service roads.

Much of the pavement on the

Bruce Highway is past its original design life

Recommendation G: Costing the “Base Case” That the timing of the highway upgrading be based on a thorough economic analysis which recognises the realistic costs of the “do nothing” option. If construction of Sections C and D of the Cooroy to Curra upgrade does not happen within the next ten years, major expenditure will be needed on the existing highway.

9 Recommended Timings The draft Bruce Highway Strategy shows both Sections C and D of the Cooroy to Curra upgrade to be constructed in the next 11 - 20 years. The strategy is silent on whether planning, detailed design and land acquisition is proposed earlier than that. Council proposes that realistic timings for the Traveston to Curra section of the Cooroy to Curra Bruce Highway upgrade, taking into account practical engineering and economic constraints, are as follows. . Traveston Road to Tin Can Bay Road As recommended earlier in this submission, Section C should include a link to Tin Can Bay Road for flood access to Brisbane and to allow eastbound trucks to bypass the Gympie urban area. Planning, design and land acquisition need to proceed immediately to allow construction from Traveston to Tin Can Bay Road to be completed by 2020. Tin Can Bay Road to Curra Planning, design and land acquisition should also proceed immediately for the new highway from Tin Can Bay Road to Curra. Construction may be completed in stages with at least two lanes (including overtaking lanes) constructed to Curra within ten years and four lanes completed within fifteen years from now.

Recommendation I: Construction Timings That construction of Section C is completed in the next five to ten years, including the connection to Tin Can Bay Road for east bound traffic and flood access. Construction of Section D may be staged with at least two lanes (plus overtaking opportunities) constructed to Curra in the next ten years and four lanes within fifteen years.

Recommendation H: Planning That planning for the highway upgrade proceeds quickly to give certainty for development around Gympie and to give confidence to the transport industry. The timeframes given in the draft Strategy are too broad and show no commitment to continuing planning for the future stages of the Cooroy to Curra Bruce Highway upgrade.
