Princes Highway upgrade : Termeil Creek : review of environmental factors : volume 2

Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) (formerly the NSW Roads and Traffic Authority) proposes to upgrade and realign about 1.6 kilometres of the Princes Highway at Termeil Creek (the proposal). This would include replacing the existing Termeil Creek Bridge with a new three span bridge. The Princes Highway would be realigned for about 1.1 kilometres north of the bridge and would be widened by about three metres for 0.5 kilometres south of the bridge. The proposal forms part of ongoing upgrades of the Princes Highway which is an important passenger and freight transport corridor and is a major route for tourism with peaks during holiday periods. The existing Termeil Creek Bridge is approaching the end of its practical life and the northern approach to the bridge has a substandard alignment and consequent safety concerns. The proposal is needed to improve the road safety and traffic efficiency of this section of road and would be in line with other road improvement activities on the Princes Highway The purpose of this review is to describe the proposal, to document the likely impacts of the proposal on the environmental and to detail protective measures to be implemented.\n\n**Note:** This resource was originally published on opengov.nsw.gov.au.

新南威尔士州道路与海事局（Roads and Maritime Services，简称RMS，前身为新南威尔士州道路与交通管理局）拟对泰米尔溪（Termeil Creek）段约1.6公里的王子公路（Princes Highway）进行升级改造与线型调整（本项目）。本次改造将以一座新建三跨桥梁替换现有泰米尔溪大桥。大桥北侧约1.1公里的王子公路路段将进行线型调整，大桥南侧约0.5公里路段将拓宽约3米。本项目为王子公路持续升级改造计划的组成部分；王子公路是重要的客运与货运运输通道，同时也是旅游出行的主要线路，假期时段交通流量将达到峰值。现有泰米尔溪大桥已接近设计使用年限，且大桥北侧引道的线型不符合标准，由此引发安全隐患。实施本项目旨在提升该路段的道路安全水平与通行效率，且与王子公路沿线其他道路改造活动的目标一致。本次评审的目的在于介绍本项目方案，记录项目可能对环境造成的影响，并详述拟实施的防护措施。
