6 LOT IN AIRSPACE development & environment consultants Lot has been designed as a series of sloping and tilting planes Lot design maximises the amount of developable land in airspace The lot in airspace must not breach the 5.9m minimum clearance to the constructed road

7 LOT IN AIRSPACE (CONTINUED) development & environment consultants

8 NOT SO TYPICAL CROSS-SECTIONS development & environment consultants Multiple Sections required to clarify lower limits of the lot Reduced levels computed to accord with intersection of the relevant section with the outer edge of each tilted plane

9 NOT SO TYPICAL CROSS-SECTIONS (CONTINUED) development & environment consultants The creation of the lot was designed and computed by Madigan Surveying and verified by Beveridge Williams

10 CREATION OF FREEHOLD TITLE TO BE INSERTED INTO MADIGANS STAGED SUBDIVSION development & environment consultants Discontinuance of Wurundjeri Way will take place under Section 12 of the Road Management Act 2004 by notice in the Government Gazette Some confusion on who the land vests in after its discontinuance -Crown has absolute property in Land over which there is an Arterial Road or Freeway (Schedule 5 (1a) RMA 2004) YET………

11 development & environment consultants -If VicRoads has discontinued the use of a road or part of a road, it may in accordance with this clause sell the land on which the road or part of the road was located (Schedule 5 (15)(1) RMA 2004) Legal Advice has been sought and the Victorian Government Solicitor has advised: - VicRoads can transfer land to a third party purchaser or - Include this land within a Plan of Subdivision under Section 35 of the Subdivision Act 1988

12 FUTURE WORKS – CONSTRUCTION PHASE development & environment consultants Bridge deck will be constructed to sit within the airspace lot (1.5 billion dollar development will lie on top of the bridge deck) Columns and Pile Caps will have to be sunk and constructed into Wurundjeri Way to support the bridge deck: -Who is going to be responsible for them? -Are titles for the supports required? Possible solutions included: -Leave the columns under the control of VicRoads -Create a Section 173 agreement that covers maintenance -Create (In conjunction with the O.S.G.) C.A.s for the area covered by the deck and columns.

13 FUTURE WORKS – CONSTRUCTION PHASE (CONTINUED) development & environment consultants The agreed solution: -The columns and pile caps within the road will be located and discontinued -The titles will be inserted into the Madigans Staged Subdivision and become Common Property along with the deck that they support. -Owners Corporation will be responsible for maintenance of structure within Common Property -Owners Corporation must be fully funded, have the appropriate rules, regulations, insurance and procedures from its inception

14 COLLINS STREET BRIDGE DECLARATION development & environment consultants Collins Street Bridge has been accepted by the public and is on Melbourne City Councils public register of roads The bridge was incorrectly declared as Docklands Hwy (Wurundjeri Way) in 2000

15 COLLINS STREET BRIDGE DECLARATION (CONTINUED) development & environment consultants Declaration Survey of Collins Street Bridge Required: -Thorough search of Land Status -As-constructed survey of the bridge deck and piers -Search of historical design drawings for the bridge

16 COLLINS STREET BRIDGE DECLARATION (CONTINUED) development & environment consultants A best fit of our as-constructed survey with the design drawings for the bridge revealed that one of the pile caps encroached into Wurundjeri Way This is of particular importance as: -We do not want to discontinue any part of the Collins Street bridge structure -We do not want to sink columns (required for Lend Lease Development) into pile caps
