The following formal submission have been made public
Submitter: George WilsonRaising of London Circuit
I believe NCA should not grant Works Approval for RLC. Any consideration of RLC by the NCA should only take place in the context of a fully documented Works Application for Light Rail Stage 2.
RLC is part of Light Rail stage 2A and works approval should await a full response to the Auditor General’s report.
I support the submission made by the Inner South Commuity Council and in particular that
• Loss of grade separation between London Circuit and Commonwealth Avenue will result in reduced urban amenity
• RLC is not necessary for the ACT Government to realise the value of land within the cloverleaf ramps
• There will be significant impacts (traffic, noise, parking, travel time, pedestrian access, greenhouse gas emissions) during the construction of RLC
• The loss of parking spaces in the CBD will adversely impact on workers, shoppers, businesses and theatre goers
• Travel time between north and south Canberra will be increased
• RLC will have a negative impact on the landscape and vistas that are an essential element of the Griffin design
