Traffic management in Lane Cove
Burns Bay Road and Longueville Road converge on Lane Cove town centre's retail strip, which sits directly above the Lane Cove Tunnel portals — creating a situation where surface works must be carefully staged to avoid disrupting tunnel ventilation infrastructure and the heavy traffic volumes the tunnel draws to the area. Retail activation events along the pedestrian mall and ongoing apartment development along the corridor generate a steady stream of traffic-management and council-permit requirements.

FAQ
Construction Traffic Management — common questions
Do I need a Traffic Management Plan for my project or event?
You generally need a TMP or CTMP whenever works or an event will affect how traffic, pedestrians or cyclists move on a public road — for example lane or road closures, footpath closures, or construction traffic entering a busy street. For construction a CTMP is frequently a condition of development consent; for events a TMP is required if you're closing or significantly affecting public roads. If unsure, a quick site review will confirm which document your job needs.
What's the difference between a TGS, a TMP and a CTMP?
A TMP is the high-level document that explains why and how a project affects the road network and sets the controls; a TGS is the diagram showing where each device and controller is placed and usually sits inside the TMP; a CTMP is a TMP written for a construction site and is commonly a condition of a Development Approval. The TMP says why and how, the TGS shows exactly where, and a CTMP is the construction version of a TMP.
What is a Road Occupancy Licence (ROL) and when do I need one?
A Road Occupancy Licence is formal Transport for NSW approval to occupy or affect the state (classified) road network. You generally need one to work on a state road, within 100 m of traffic signals, or wherever works affect traffic flow, queues or safety on a state road. Council-controlled local roads are approved by the council instead, and the ROL application must match your TGS.
Why was a generic or template traffic plan rejected by council?
Generic templates are one of the most common reasons councils reject a submission, because they don't show the real site-specific detail — exact clearances, bus zones, driveways, fire hydrants, school-crossing locations and local constraints. NSW councils require a plan drawn for your specific site by an accredited designer to TCAWS and AS 1742.3, so replacing a template with a site-specific TGS is usually what gets an application approved.
