1 Introduction

1.1 Preliminary Information

Taylor Thomson Whitting (TTW) has been engaged by Richard Crookes Constructions (RRC) to prepare a Construction Traffic and Pedestrian Management Sub-Plan (CTPMSP) for the approved redevelopment works at Wyong Hospital, Hamlyn Terrace. This document addresses the proposed construction activities associated with the construction of a new hospital building and associated works at Wyong Hospital. It discusses the management of local traffic and construction vehicles related to the project.

The document addresses all the relevant consent conditions as outlined in B13 of Development Consent (SSD 9536, 29th August 2019) for the approved development.

The document satisfies the duties applied by Part 2 (Division 3, Section 26) of the Work Health and Safety Act 2011, regarding reducing risks to the health and safety or workers and other persons near a construction site.

Under the Safe Work NSW Construction work code of practice, a traffic management plan is considered an administrative control measure to minimise risk. As per the hierarchy of control measures, the preferred control is to eliminate risk (e.g. by using traffic lights instead of a traffic controller to control traffic at road works, to eliminate potential harm to the worker). This document aims to provide control measures which eliminate risk where possible. As outlined in this code of practice, workplace specific induction should cover this document.

Traffic control plans (TCPs) have been developed in accordance with the RMS Traffic Control at Work Sites manual, and Australian Standard AS1742.3 (Manual of uniform traffic control devices – Traffic control for works on roads) to which it refers.

AS1742.3 requires a procedure to be followed whereby all essential traffic management matters are considered in an ordered way. Traffic demand, routing, and control, and other road users and special vehicles are to be considered in turn and incorporated into a traffic management plan where relevant. This document satisfies this procedure and addresses the relevant matters.

Consideration has been given in development of this document to the Roads Act 1993 (NSW) and other applicable and relevant legislation.

Richard Crookes Construction is responsible for acquiring and shall acquire the necessary certificates, licences, consents, permits, and approvals relevant to the construction on this site.

This report has been prepared by an engineer who holds the RMS Prepare a Work Zone Traffic Management Plan accreditation as below:

• Syed Ali – card no. 0052212575, expiry 13/11/2022

1.3 Roads and Maritime Comments

Following comments were provided by Roads and Maritime via and email dated 29 November 2019. The comments are addressed under the reference sections.

Comments Reference

1 The right turn movements from Pacific Hwy into the existing hospital main entrance and the same movement from Pacific Hwy into Louisiana Rd must be metered by the construction manager to ensure that such movements do not exceed or do not combine with non-construction movements to exceed the storage capacity of the existing turn lanes. It is noted that the Louisiana Rd right turn lane has limited storage capacity and is an uncontrolled intersection.

Section 4.2 – Construction Vehicle Routes

Section 4.3 – Construction Traffic Management

2 The use of the main hospital entrance, from the Pacific Hwy, should never exceed the internal road capacity, such that a queue, reaches the Pacific Hwy, and subsequently causes delay on that road.

Not applicable as construction traffic would not use main hospital entrance to enter/exit the construction site.

3 All vehicle leaving the site must be treated to prevent deposits of debris on the road network.

Section 4.3 – Construction Traffic Management

4 It is assumed that the swept path of truck and trailer combinations entering the site will not exceed the capacity of existing intersection and lane arrangements.

Section 4.3 – Construction Traffic Management

5 A right turn movement from Louisiana Rd on to Pacific Hwy should not be permitted.

Section 4.2 – Construction Vehicle Routes

Management of Construction Vehicles Page 13 of 23

4 Management of Construction Vehicles

4.1 Construction Traffic Volume

Based on the information provided by RCC, on average, peak construction traffic volumes would be up to 25 construction trucks per day, which equates to approximately up to five trucks per hour depending on the works undertaken. It is noted that all concrete pours will be scheduled to occur outside of road network peak periods to minimise traffic impact and associated road network.

The construction traffic includes vehicles up to 20 metres long Articulated Vehicle. Noting that when required, though not expected, any oversize vehicle approaching the site, would require Council’s approval. RCC is responsible for submitting an application for an Over Size Vehicle Access Permit and obtain approval before such traffic movements.

4.2 Construction Vehicle Routes

All construction vehicles will use the State and Regional road network as well as the RMS approved heavy vehicle route network where practicable.

The construction vehicles will enter and exit the site in forward direction.

Incoming construction vehicles are expected to be travelling along Louisiana Road and Pacific Highway as shown in Figure 4.1.

North/East Approach

• Approach from Pacific Highway

• Turn right onto Louisiana Road

• Turn right onto access road

South/West Approach

• Approach from Pacific Highway

• Turn left onto Louisiana Road

• Turn right onto access road

OR (Alternate Route)

• Approach from Pacific Highway

• Turn to Sparks Road, Warnervale Road and Louisiana Road

Outbound vehicles will exit the site via the same route in the opposite direction, then turning left or right depending on their destination. The right turn movements from Louisiana Road on to Pacific Highway is not permitted for constructions traffic.

Management of Construction Vehicles Page 14 of 23

Figure 4.1: Construction vehicle routes

Image source: Nearmap

4.3 Construction Traffic Management

The construction trucks would enter the site via Louisiana Road access to the site and perform all loading unloading activities completely within site. The truck will then turn around within an on-site designated manoeuvring area to ensure all construction vehicles will enter and exit the site in a forward direction. All construction vehicles exiting the site should be treated via appropriate arrangements, such as on-site wheel wash to prevent dirt and sediments from being tracked off the site.

A detailed swept path assessment showing construction trucks circulating through the designated area is included in Appendix C of this report. The swept path assessment shows that the truck and trailers entering the site are not exceeding the capacity of the existing intersection and running over the opposite approach lanes.

During days of high estimated vehicle movements, communication between the site, concrete batching plant and/or vehicles will be maintained to stagger the arrival of vehicles, in order for them to be accommodated within the worksite and to minimise traffic disruptions. RCC’s construction manager should ensure that the trucks should arrive on the site with appropriate intervals, such that the construction truck movements should not exceed the storage capacity of existing turn lanes at Pacific Highway.

The proposed construction truck access via Louisiana Road would be controlled by RMS accredited traffic controllers when the access is in operation. The access would be secured at other times, such as outside construction hours.

A proposed traffic control plan showing appropriate warning signages is provided in Appendix B.

4.4 Works Zone

No on-street Works Zones are required for this development.

4.5 Driver code of Conduct

Construction truck drivers associated with this project shall abide by the following Code of Conduct:

• Drivers shall minimise the impacts of earthworks and construction on the local and regional road network;

• Drivers shall minimise conflicts with other road users;

• Drivers shall minimise road traffic noise; and

• Drivers shall use the specified routes for approaching and exiting the site.

Based on the above principles, it is recommended to develop a program or a checklist to ensure truck drivers are adhering with driver code of conduct.

4.6 Construction Workers Parking

RCC would prepare a temporary car park for construction workers, located to the north of site. The car park is likely to accommodate up to 110 vehicles. The construction workers are not to park within the Hospital car park or on the surrounding street at any time.

Construction Traffic and Parking Assessment Page 16 of 23

5 Construction Traffic and Parking Assessment

5.1 Local Traffic Impacts

Local traffic patterns during construction are expected to remain consistent with the existing conditions.

The number of daily vehicles is expected to be minimal in comparison to the total volumes of traffic on local roads. Truck movements to and from the site will be scheduled outside peak hours where possible to reduce impacts to the area which includes busy pedestrian areas.

All deliveries and construction works are to take place within the site with no impacts to passing traffic. Existing travel lanes along Pacific Highway and Louisiana Road will remain in operation at full capacity.

5.2 Traffic Safety

All construction work and operations are to be contained within the site. 1800mm high chain wire fence are to be implemented on all site boundaries. Safety for passing traffic including pedestrians shall be maintained at all times.

Manoeuvring and merging of heavy vehicles on Pacific Highway and Louisiana Road and other internal roads is to be managed carefully, such that traffic safety is maintained. Traffic is not to be held up in advance to allow vehicles to exit the site, and vehicles are to use suitable gaps in traffic (as per normal right-of-way scenario)

If the relevant loading area is found to be full at the time of vehicle arrival, vehicles are not to queue on the roadway. In this instance, vehicles shall store appropriately within other areas of the site (and shall not reverse out of the site) or be turned away and rescheduled if necessary. Site traffic controllers are to manage all construction truck movements.

5.3 Parking

The number of workers vary for each phase of the works. It is anticipated that the number workers would not exceed more than 110 workers for approximately 75% of the construction activity period. The peak construction activity would occur at the end of Structure and Façade works and for the overall duration of fit out works. During this period the number of construction workforce would go up to 180 workers. RCC expect and encourage that throughout the construction works the workers would carpool and also use public transport to and from the site. Therefore, the parking requirement of the construction workers would vary depending on the nature of work undertaken. Given that, the proposed parking provision would be sufficient to cater construction worker parking demand.

RCC traffic control systems would monitor the adjacent on-street parking and ensure that all construction personnel park within the site.

All the information regarding parking for construction workers would be included in construction worker induction training, to ensure that construction traffic would not impact parking availability for general public in the surrounding area.

The construction trucks would park within the site, as all the loading unloading activities will occur within the site. All construction traffic would enter and exit the site in a forward direction.

5.4 Cumulative Local Impacts

No nearby construction sites are anticipated to create a cumulative impact on local traffic. The volume of construction traffic generated by the site is within normal daily traffic variations and can be catered for within the capacity of the local network.

5.5 Public Transport

There shall be no changes to local public transport routes and services because of construction.

The proposed works will not impede pedestrian access to any operational hospital buildings.

There are no changes to dedicated cycleways in the area. Cyclists on public roads will be required to follow direction from traffic controllers as per standard vehicles.

The construction site is to remain secured from pedestrian access with site fencing. Appropriate traffic measures will be in place such as signage, traffic controllers, and barriers to control access.

5.7 Hospital Emergency Services

Emergency vehicles accessing the operational hospital emergency department and other critical areas will be unimpeded by construction works. Where works are operating across internal roadways, movements will be under full traffic control with the ability to give priority to emergency vehicles as required.

Emergency access to the construction site itself shall be operated as necessary. In the event of an emergency, the Site Manager is to coordinate access with emergency services as required.

Emergency services access to local properties will be retained, with no road closures or major lane changes required for these works.

6 Further Information

6.1 Communication and Consultation

Prior to the commencement of waste removal or any material delivery to the site, condition B23 of the development consent requires to discuss the truck routes with RMS Traffic Management Centre and Central Coast Council (Council). TTW has initiated communication with Roads and Maritime Services Hunter Region and the Council on 28 October 2019. TTW has received comments from Roads and Maritime via an email dated 29 November 2019. The comments are duly incorporated in this report. A summary table showing Roads and Maritime comments and reference to the relevant sections of the report is presented in section 1.3 of this report.

TTW is awaiting a response from the Council. A revised version of the report will be issued to address the comments from the Council, once received.

Prior to any site works taking place, extensive consultation has taken place with Hospital stakeholders to ensure adequate notification of works to Hospital users. Staff will require notification of any changes to access and parking, and patients and visitors may also require a notification strategy to be implemented. Communication will likely need to occur with Hospital management, security teams, critical service providers, ambulance crews, helipad operators, and all other relevant stakeholders as identified by the Hospital or project team.

Communication with the relevant Hospital stakeholders would be ongoing throughout the construction period. A 24-hour contact phone number will be provided in the event of any unforeseen disturbances.

Notification of commencement of the works has also been distributed to the local neighbourhood. Notification has included information on the type of works, hours of operation, and contact numbers for further information or comment. Community notifications are expected to be undertaken in accordance with the project’s Construction Management Plan.

6.2 Certificate and Approvals

Approval may need to be obtained from Transport for NSW, Roads and Maritime Services, Central Coast Council and other relevant authorities. Approval may be required for items including but not limited to:

• Road occupancy approvals

• Hoarding/fencing approvals

• Oversize vehicle usage on local roads.

Responsibility for acquiring the necessary certificates, permits, and/or approvals rests with the builder (through managed subcontractors where relevant), and must be completed prior to commencement of the associated works.

Only certified personnel will be used on site to implement, monitor, and carry out the Traffic Control Plans.

6.3 Traffic Control Plans and Signage

Temporary construction traffic related signposting is to be developed in accordance with AS 1742.3 – Traffic Control Devices for Works on Roads. For the commencement of the works, a proposed Traffic Control Plan as attached in Appendix B of this report should be implemented on the site.

During construction the contractor shall each morning, prior to work commencing, ensure all signage is erected in accordance with the TCP and clearly visible. Each evening, upon completion of work, the contractor is to ensure relevant signage is removed as required. A review of the TCP can be undertaken as required to determine any need for future amendments.
