1 Introduction

1.1 Overview

Ason Group has been engaged by Hunter Energy to prepare a site-specific Operational Traffic Management

Plan (OTMP) in relation to the proposed change in fuel source of the Redbank Power Station from coal to

biomass (the Proposal) at 112 Long Point Road West, Warkworth (the Site).

1.2 Background

Ason Group has previously worked on preparing a Transport Impact Assessment (TIA) and subsequent

Technical Note (TN) in relation to the operation of the Site.

It is now understood that the main fuel source to be utilised within the Site has changed from coal to primarily

biomass, and as such requires an updated review and consolidation to ensure that there are no resulting

adverse impacts.

Redbank Power has a desire that the sites it operates are safe for all users. In this regard, Redbank Power

are looking to review the current traffic management arrangements to ensure that safety matters relating to

the interaction of pedestrians and vehicles are satisfactorily addressed and maintained where possible.

1.3 Purpose

The overriding purpose of this site-specific OTMP is to primarily manage the interaction between light and

heavy vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists during the day-to-day operation. The overall objective is to ensure

safe and efficient movement of vehicles and personnel. Having regard for this, the OTMP details the

following:

• Appropriate internal traffic controls and signage

• Access and parking arrangements

• A truck route management plan

• Proposed crossings and signage for safe movement of pedestrians between designated car park to the

office areas.

• Driver Code of Conduct to be implemented.

• Governance and administration of the plan

Please note, Ason Group is responsible for the preparation of this plan only and not for its implementation,

which is the responsibility of Redbank.


1.4 Exclusions

This OTMP does not cover the following:

• Traffic and pedestrian management associated with construction activities. Reference should be made

to relevant Construction Traffic Management Plans (CTMP) or Traffic guidance Schemes (TCGs) specific

to those works, as required.

• Transport of Dangerous Goods is not covered by this OTMP. In the event that transportation of

dangerous goods is required within the site, a Transport Emergency Response Plan (TERP) will be

required prior to the arrival of any dangerous goods. It is expected that such plans will be prepared by

contractors / building tenants involved in the transport of Dangerous Goods to/from the individual

businesses within the Site.

1.5 References

2 Site Details

2.1 Site Overview

The Site is legally referenced as Lot 450 in DP 1119428, and has a street address of 112 Long Point Road

West, Warkworth. As stated, the Site is located within the Singleton Local Government Area (LGA) and lies

approximately 17 km west of the Singleton town centre, and 90 km north-west of the Newcastle Central

Business District (CBD). Figure 1 shows the location of the Site relative to the surrounding context.

Figure 1: Site Location

2.2 Surrounding road network

The key roads providing access for the Site and for the haulage routes heading north and south are detailed

below.

• Golden Highway (Jerry Plains Road): A State Highway (SH 27), the Golden Highway generally runs in

a north-west to south-east to direction between the Castlereagh Highway at Craboon and Putty Road at

Singleton, respectively. It generally provides two traffic lanes for two-way traffic, and at-grade and grade-

separated intersections appropriate to through and turning traffic demands along different parts of the

route. In the vicinity of the Site, the Golden Highway has a posted speed limit of 100km/h.

• Long Point Road West: A collector road, Long Point Road West generally run in an east-west direction

between Gouldsville Road and the Golden Highway, respectively. It provides two sealed traffic lanes for

two-way traffic, and has a posted speed limit of 100km/h.


2.3 Parking

Based on information supplied to Ason Group, there are two car parking locations on the Site. These car

parking locations are shown in Figure 2 and described as follows:

• Staff car parking located to the south-west of the Site (Approximately 32 spaces capacity)

• Contractor Car Parking located to the south-east corner of the Site (Approximately 150 spaces capacity)

Notably, the Contractor Car Parking is only used while the site is shutdown for maintenance works (1-2 times

/ yr.).

Figure 2: Car Parking


Noting the circulation routes outlined within Section 3.4.3, there could be consideration to moving the parking

lot to a location closer to the internal buildings. This would reduce the quantum of people crossing the

internal road network, reducing the number of interactions between heavy vehicles and pedestrians, and

would ultimately result in a safer outcome.

Figure 3: Optional Car Park Locations

2.4 Hours of Operation

The facility is permitted to operate 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. Staff operate on a shift work basis

with each shift being 12 hours long.

2.5 Pedestrian Access

Given that the surrounding area is highly undeveloped and has limited public transport accessibility, the level

of pedestrian infrastructure is non-existent. This is also such that the Site is not expected to generate any

significant volume of pedestrians to / from the Site.

Internally, pedestrian infrastructure includes painted zebra crossing opportunities connecting to various

offices / facilities including the staff car parking area. The crossing (shown in Figure 4) is provided on an

angle and is generally an unsafe practice. As outlined within AS1742, pedestrian crossing should be parallel

with the centre of the carriageway, therefore consideration should be given to the introduction of a new

crossing and footpath to ensure safety for all pedestrians.


Figure 4: Possible Changes to Pedestrian Crossing

2.6 Site Access Arrangements

All Site access is provided via Long Point Road West via two formal driveways at the eastern and western

boundaries of the Site, as shown in Figure 5. These serve as the primary access points into the Site.

Figure 5: Existing Site Access


2.6.1 Light Vehicle Internal Car Park and Access

Vehicular access to and from the staff car parking areas will generally be from the Western Driveway, as

outlined within Figure 5 above. Notwithstanding, both driveways can be utilised by light vehicles to access

the Site.

Internally, access to the car park will be primarily from the Western Access Driveway, as shown in Figure 6.

Additionally, vehicles could access the car park via the Eastern Access Driveway, although this would be

less likely and therefore discouraged.

Figure 6: Access to Car Park

As a general note, regular maintenance schedules/checks of line-marking within the estate should be

undertaken to ensure the condition of line marking, in terms of conspicuity and reflectorisation is maintained

at an adequate level.

A night-time inspection was not undertaken and therefore an assessment of lighting has not been assessed

in detail. Whilst itself not a traffic-related issue, consideration should be given for energy-efficient LED lights

wherever feasible to ensure a uniform light distribution throughout the trafficable roads throughout the Site,

particularly in areas that could be accessed by pedestrians.


2.6.2 Heavy Vehicle Access

Heavy vehicle access locations to and from the service / loading areas are illustrated in Figure 7. There is

an interaction between the heavy vehicle egress and light vehicle access as shown in Figure 8, although the

number of interactions between light and heavy vehicles in expected to be minimal, there is a safety risk.

Additional signage should be considered to increase awareness of the likely interaction between light and

heavy vehicles. This would assist both the heavy vehicle driver to see light vehicles, and for the light

vehicles to be more aware of heavy vehicle movements.

Figure 7: Heavy Vehicle Access

Figure 8: Potential Safety Issue at Car Park


3 Operational Traffic Management Plan

3.1 Pedestrian Management

Pedestrian access within the Site should be minimised and/or restricted, as far as practicable. Pedestrian

exclusion areas should be clearly signposted with appropriate signage (example below)

In the event that pedestrian access is required within predominantly heavy vehicle/machinery areas, high

visibility vests and other personal protective clothing shall be worn at all times.

3.2 Vehicle Management

3.2.1 Design Vehicle and Speed

The Site’s access driveways and external hardstand / work areas have been designed for use by vehicles up

to and including B-Double vehicles. Site access and internal circulation routes are outlined within the

Signage Plan within Appendix A.

Speed limit sign utilised shall be a minimum of Size A signage as per AS1743. Speed limit signage

placement and installation height shall be in accordance with AS1742.2 and AS1742.4. Signage shall be

made of reflectorised material on the assumption that the signage are to be legible under all conditions.

3.2.2 Service Vehicle Access Routes

Vehicles accessing the Site shall enter via the existing access driveways on Long Point Road West as

indicated in Figure 9. Since the largest vehicle expected to arrive to site is a 25 metre B-Double, the key

roads to the Site are part of the approved Heavy Vehicle network as highlighted in Figure 10.

ALL ACCESS TO THE SITE SHALL BE IN A FORWARD DIRECTION AT ALL TIMES.


Figure 9: Truck Access Routes

Figure 10: Heavy Vehicle Access Map


3.3 Loading and Unloading of Materials

All trucks entering or leaving the site with loads have their loads covered to ensure that no vehicle will track

dirt, dust, biomass or ash onto the public road network.

The vehicle queuing guidelines — outlined within Section 3.4 —stipulate that at no stage will loading or

unloading of materials occur off-site. It is understood that the estimated unloading time ranges between 10

to 15 minutes.

3.4 Vehicle Queuing

The Site does not generate traffic at the current time so there is no queuing to Long Point Road.

Notwithstanding, given the distance between the Eastern Driveway access and the entry gate prior to

weighbridge (being some 215 metres long and shown within Figure 12) and the expected volume of b-

doubles arriving to Site per hour (approx. 6 vehicles), it is expected that there is minimal risk for vehicles to

queue onto Long Point Road. Furthermore, it is considered that the weighbridge location can be moved to

optimise queuing storage space.

In the event that deliveries to the Site increase, then a booking system should be considered to reduce the

number of heavy vehicles on-site at any one time and reducing the number of on-site interactions between

vehicles and pedestrians at any given time. The booking system would ensure that heavy vehicles would

arrive to site at pre-approved times, in order to ensure that no heavy vehicles would queue on to the public

road network.

AT NO STAGE ARE VEHICLES TO QUEUE ONTO THE EXTERNAL ROAD NETWORK.

3.4.1 Weighbridge

There are currently 2 new weighbridges are proposed to be installed from the Site access points for entry

and egress. The existing weighbridge on site is expected to remain where it currently it is.

As noted above, the exact locations of the proposed weighbridges are yet to be confirmed, however an

appropriate indicative entry and exit weighbridge locations have been shown indicatively in Figure 11.

Having regard for location, it is considered that the proposed weighbridge locations can be shifted to

optimise queuing storage space accordingly.


Figure 11: Indicative proposed weighbridge locations

3.4.2 Service Vehicle Access Routes

It is understood that the site generally has a large skip bin that is positioned closest to where it is required for

the relevant maintenance project. Therefore there is no dedicated area for skip bins within the Site.

Waste collection vehicles and associated bins are not to be parked on internal or external roads or footpaths

and must remain within the Site at all times. Bins shall not be stored in parking spaces or critical

manoeuvring areas. Bins are to be located in nominated areas that are appropriately sign posted.

B-doubles shall follow the internal circulation routes outlined in Figure 12 to access the ash storage area

(loading /unloading areas). In addition, swept paths provided in Appendix C outlines that these movements

can be undertaken by a b-double.

3.4.3 Internal Circulation

Internal roadways are proposed to be one-way in a clockwise direction for heavy vehicles, while the western

access shall remain two way for light vehicles. All turning areas within the site shall remain free from

obstacles at all times (including parked vehicles).

Please refer to Appendix C for the B-double swept paths, which demonstrate satisfactory access and

circulation.


Figure 12: Internal Vehicle Circulation

3.5 Temporary or Unplanned Works

Construction works and associated traffic management measures are not covered by this plan.

Notwithstanding, any traffic and pedestrian control in relation to temporary or unplanned works shall be

designed in accordance with AS1742 and/or the TfNSW Traffic Control at Work Sites – Technical Manual v

6.0 2020 (Traffic Control at Work Sites) Manual, as appropriate.

Where practicable, work areas and temporary pedestrian paths (if applicable) should be physically separated

from vehicle movements by way of traffic cones, bollards, and/or temporary pedestrian fencing.

Notably, the Site has planned shutdowns 1-2 times per year where there is no biomass delivery. Contractors

arriving at the Site during this time for facility maintenance exercises have a separate dedicated car parking

area at noted in Section 2.3.


4 Plan Administration

4.1 Plan Maintenance

This OTMP shall be subject to ongoing review and will be updated as necessary in response to changing

requirements or in response to any documented WHS issues. A review of this OTMP should be undertaken

yearly, or if required (if a new business occupies a tenancy and has different operational requirements to that

envisaged under this OTMP). Where a change of businesses does not alter the underlying characteristics of

the operation, no change to this plan itself would be required.

4.2 Key Responsibilities

4.2.1 Management

The key responsibilities of the on-site management include:

• Ensure all staff and sub-contractors are provided with sufficient training to undertake the required tasks.

This includes responsibility for measures to ensure that all staff and visitors are familiar with site-specific

rules through appropriate site induction procedures, including being inducted into this OTMP.

• Conduct all business in a safe, professional, and legal manner.

• Be familiar with and address their respective duty of care requirements in accordance with the applicable

state’s Work Health and Safety (WHS) legislation.

• Ensure WHS Incident logbooks are maintained and undertake necessary action(s) in relation to any

reported issues.

4.2.2 Driver Code of Conduct

All drivers are to operate in a manner consistent with the requirements of applicable WHS legislation and

other business specific policies. All commercial vehicle drivers are to be familiar with the Driver Code of

Conduct before attending the Site. A copy of the Code is provided in Appendix B.


5 Observations and Recommendations

5.1 Recommendations

As part of the review, recommendations and implementation of this report, a list of required signage and line

marking has been provided within Appendix A

Upon review of the Redbank site the following table is a general list of actions that should be considered.

TABLE 1: PARKING AND ACCESS CONSIDERATIONS

Ref Issue Mitigation / Action

1 Due to the limited road width, vehicles stopping for even up to 2 minutes could potentially create safety and/or queueing issues, especially within corners, bends, and/or other constrained locations that these signs are located.

“No Stopping” signs should be installed along the internal access road to allow heavy vehicles to access the Store and to maximise the sight distance around the building and within the affected intersections

2 The line marking within the site is poor and showing signs of fade / non-existent in locations.

A site-wide review of line-marking should be undertaken to ensure that the condition of all line marking is sufficient.

3 Access and internal manoeuvring conditions for the Site encourages light, heavy and service vehicles to interact in a dangerous manor.

It is recommended that appropriate traffic control be implemented to separate service vehicles from the light vehicles travelling through the parking areas.

4 The lack of advance warning signage highlighting pedestrian crossings to and from the car parks and other locations could create a safety issue in areas where there is limited visibility.

Installation of pedestrian crossings signage is required, as outlined within Appendix A.

5 Location of car park within the site requires pedestrians to cross a section of road with the Site’s highest heavy vehicle volumes, creating an unsafe movement

Consideration should be given to relocating the car park to other possible locations (as outlined in Figure 8) to assist in safe pedestrian movements within the Site

6 Existing pedestrian crossing next to the existing car park is on an angle across 2 roads. This type of crossing is against the Australian Standards and could create safety issues

It is recommended to remove the existing crossing and replace it with a new crossing and a small section of footpath to be installed to mitigate these risks.
