Description and purpose of works on Old South Head Rd footpath

Luke Bacon made this Government Information (Public Access) request to Waverley Council

This request has been closed to new correspondence from the public body. Contact us if you think it ought be re-opened.

Waverley Council did not have the information requested.

Dear Waverley Council,

Over the last few months I've noticed ongoing construction work along the footpath of Old South Head Rd, between The Avenue and Curlewis St (along the golf course fence). I'd like to request the basic documents outlining the purpose and description of the project that this work is part of.

I've been enjoying the new cycle path they've built and I'm interested to know the bigger plan and timeline.

I realise this could be an RMS project, but I would assume that the council would possess a basic documentation of the project.

I'd really appreciate your help if you can track down and send the document through and treat this as an informal/administrative request. Otherwise, please let me know and we can make this a GIPA request.

Thanks for your help,

Yours faithfully,

Luke Bacon, Waverly resident.

Ajanti Gunatillaka, Waverley Council

Dear Mr Bacon,

 

I refer to your informal GIPA request for the basic documents outlining
the purpose and description of the project in relation to construction
work along the footpath of Old South Head Rd, between The Avenue and
Curlewis St (along the golf course fence).

 

I contacted the business unit responsible for construction work, Clean and
Attractive Waverley . I have been informed that the section of Old South
Head Road between The Avenue and Curlewis St, along the golf course fence
is under Woollahra Council and that Old South Head Road is a State road.
Therefore, the work you refer to may be a combined project between the
Woollahra Council and RMS.

 

We therefore, do not have the documents that you requested. You can find
the classification of roads by clicking on the following link:

If you need any clarification, please contact me on the details below.

 

Kind regards,
