Proposal for HML vehicles, waste transportation, Myocum Landfill File No: F161\02 #E2013/21610 35 The Committee reviewed the information provided in the Agenda, which is as follows. In accordance with the relevant guidelines, LTC advice on this matter is sought to inform a separate report to Council. 40 45 50 Council’s waste services have provided the following detail in regard to the proposal to operate Higher Mass Limit (HML) vehicles. Background Council is currently negotiating a contract with Veolia Environmental Services to transport and dispose of waste from the Myocum Landfill and Transfer Station. This will involve the use of trucks with a higher mass limit, details attached (see Table 1), to enable Council to avail of better rates for the transport and disposal of waste. Proposed route The proposed route from the Myocum facility is travelling a westerly direction along The Manse Road, then turning left onto Myocum Road and travelling in a south-easterly direction, until reaching Tyagarah Road, then turning left into Tyagarah Road until reaching the Pacific Highway. Ordinary Meeting Agenda 09/05/13
BYRON SHIRE COUNCIL ORDINARY MEETING 9 MAY 2013 (117) 5 Number of Loads per day Based upon the information captured by Council's weighbridge system at the Myocum Landfill, it is estimated that between 2 and 4 loads in the higher mass limit trucks will come from the Myocum Facility each week day, and 1 to 2 loads each weekend. Actual numbers of loads will be dictated by incoming waste loads and cannot be determined definitively. Waste and Recycling Services would like to commence the process to obtaining approval for these higher mass limit trucks to utilise the route as outlined above as soon as possible. 10 The proposed route is approximately 7km in length and depicted, as is the proposed vehicle; ie a quad axle vehicle, details of which are in Table 1 below. 15 20 25 30 The relevant RMS criteria for assessment are established within their NSW Route Assessment Guide for Restricted Access Vehicles (RAV) available online at: http://www.rta.nsw.gov.au/heavyvehicles/downloads/route_assessment_guide_dl1.html Section 2.5 of the guidelines advises that the first stage is to: …assess the route for the relevant vehicle combination at GML (see Table 1). As HML involves only additional mass and no change in vehicle dimensions, the next stage is to assess the mass and axle spacing for the vehicle configuration on infrastructure. This is done by a route inspection and assessment that reviews any safety and risk concerns plus physical obstructions, such as bridges, overhead structures, etc. This assessment does not require driving the proposed vehicle (ie a “field trial”) and can be undertaken by Council officers. While this has occurred, it has been requested that the RMS assist with a further route assessment, the outcome of which will be reported to the Committee, noting that Appendix D.5 of the guidelines advise the role of LTC as follows: 35 LTC is to manage involvement and advice on an application as a separate matter As the advice is outside formal business, the informal advice is to be a separate report from the LTC to council to help council’s assessment of the route. A report can summarise discussion and indicate the various positions of the LTC members. A report is not binding on council Ordinary Meeting Agenda 09/05/13
