6. No mention of existing City of Yarra Bicycle Strategy
In 2009 CoY adopted the Bicycle Strategy 2010-2015 to establish a
long-term vision for cycling in Yarra.
Yarra already has an established and extensive on and off-road
bicycle network which contributes to Yarra having the highest level
of non-car use for travel to work in Melbourne. More than two in
every five residents walk, cycle or catch public transport to go to
work (42%), well above the Melbourne average (16%).
The East West Link
Comprehensive
Impact Statement has
failed to mention that
the City 01 Yarra has a
current Bicycle
Strategy (2010-2015)
Large numbers of cyclists from other municipalities also pass
through Yarra due to the existing cycling infrastructure and Yarra's
proximity to the Melbourne Central Activity District (CAD).
Yarra City Council has not previously had a bicycle strategy, with
improvements to the on and off road bicycle network achieved
through annual capital works allocations sitting under the Council
Plan and other Council and State strategies.
Ref: http://www .yarracit y.vic.gov.au/Su st ai nab le-tra nsport/Bicyclestrategy/
Neither does the CIS or
any State Government
announcements made
since May 2013, cantain
detailed examination of
remedial works or impacts
the EWL project will have
during the years of
construction upon existing
bike projects in Yarra or
successive bicycle
strotegies developed after
2015.

8. Interruptions to Wellington St reet " Copenhagen La ne" route
The Comprehensive Impact Statement has no mention of the Eastern portal construction impact upon proposed Wellington Street Copenhagen lanes at the
Alexandra Parade intersection. This is a vital component of the first of five separate lanes as outlined in Yarra Bicycle Strategy (2010-2015)
Ref: http ://www.varracitv.vic.gov.au/P arki ng -road s-and -tra nspo rtf Cu rre nt -p ro iects/ proposed -se pa rat ed- bike-Ianes-i n-we IIingto n -streett
In November 2013 the proposed lanes were still in jeopardy, even after lengthy consultations, when concerns were raised by one business in the area at the
Yarra Councils November meeting
The local community swiftly mobilised to support the lanes proposal with a campaign directed at Yarra Councillors to support the existing initiative with over
800 signatures gathered online and hardcopy with two weeks.
Refer to htt p://well ingtonstbikelane.info

Council again supported the project to progress to the detailed design stage at its meeting on 17 December 2013, with consideration of a number of
measures to limit the impact of the removal of parking on local businesses and properties.

15. Capital City Trail - Extract from City of Melbourne CIS submission
From City Of Melbourne submission on Linking Melbourne Authority's East West Link (Eastern Section) Comprehensive Impact Statement regarding impacts upon
Capital City Trail and Royal Park
"The impact an the Capital City trail is poorly documented and addressed. This is a significant cycling and commuter trail. (refer appendix 9, Report: Bicycle and
pedestrian count data, 2013 - Royal Pork)
The SIA daes not recognise the significance af the Capital City Trail in Precinct Three. The City of Melbourne has provided data on the use of the trail Precinct
Three. The COMPREHENSIVE IMPACT STATEMENT should be amended to recognise this and assess its impact.
The COMPREHENSIVE IMPACT STATEMENT should require that the Capital City Trail and other shared paths stay open and viable during the construction
phase."
"A key recreational value of Moonee Ponds Creek is as a regional shared trail. The Capital City Trail runs parallel to the creek and it connects the Yarra River and
the City to Royal Park and onto the northern suburbs. For bicycle and pedestrian movement it is as important as the Yarra Main trail. The VicRoads counter
located on Footscray Road, 200 metres south east of the CityLink off-ramp recorded 3,200 bike riders every 24 hours (2013)22. This counter records bicycles from
both Footscray Road and the Capital City Trail, with the recorded numbers showing it is the most heavily used bike route in Metropolitan Melbourne."

17. Conclusion
Yarra Bicycle Users Group's {Yarra BUG) submission has demonstrated that the Traffic Impact Assessment (Appendix E) fails to address the impacts as regards
to current and planned cycling infrastructure.
This unpopular and unnecessary project, if proceeded with, will inflict massive impacts on cycling and walking connectivity within the City of Yarra.
The Comprehensive Impact Statement (CIS) is therefore a misnomer.
