4. Contact with Road Managers/Other Authorities/Public
Real Heavy Haulage has contacted Penrith City Council, Blacktown City Council, TMC and
the Westlink M7 in order to ensure smooth and safe access to the road network for this
movement.
A letter drop will be conducted one week in advance of the movement date to all
businesses and residents in the vicinity of Lee Holm Road, Power Street and Wordoo
Avenue informing them of the upcoming movement and requesting that vehicles do not
park on these streets on the dates of the movements so that there is sufficient clearance
for the load. The movement is also being conducted at night to ensure that there are
minimal disruptions to the road network, other road users and local businesses.
The TMC has been contacted to ensure that Road Occupancy License (ROL) holders are
aware of the movement and timings for each section of this movement have been provided
in this TMP to assist with planning and traffic coordination.
As Real Heavy Haulage intends to use the Westlink M7 prior contact is required in order to
coordinate entry and exit on and off the motorway. Real Heavy Haulage will provide the
Traffic Operations Room with 10-15 minutes warning prior to entry onto the motorway.
This will provide sufficient time for Variable Speed Limit Signs (VSLS) and Variable
Message Signs (VMS) to be changed, warning other road users of the approaching
oversize movement. Once the load has exited off the motorway, Real Heavy Haulage will
once again contact the Traffic Operations Room advising that travel on the M7 is
complete. A copy of this TMP has also been provided to Westlink M7.
Blacktown City Council has also been contacted regarding this movement and a letter box
drop advising all residents and businesses on Woodstock Avenue and Glendenning Road
of this movement will occur one week prior to the movement dates. Penrith City Council
has also been contacted regarding this movement and a letter box drop advising all
residents and businesses on Lee Holm Road, Power Street and Wordoo Avenue one
week prior to the movement dates will be carried out.
