The Tripoli Way Extension (TWE) is a significant local project and must go through a comprehensive environmental assessment process. Projects of this size and complexity can have major economic, environmental, and social impacts. The Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) assesses the environmental and social impacts of the TWE and will go on public exhibition for the community to have their say on the project before any final decision is made.

The EIS covers factors such as traffic, noise, ecology, heritage, water quality, flooding, and social impacts, as well as proposing measures to minimise and manage them.

The exhibition and submission process plays a vital role in the project development and provides an opportunity for the community to have their say.

When the exhibition period ends all submissions will be submitted to the Department of Planning, Housing, and Infrastructure (DPHI). A submission report with responses will be developed and made publicly available. Following this, a final assessment of the EIS including feedback will be undertaken and a determination made. If the EIS is endorsed, this forms the project's approval.

We've simplified the complex technical studies and reports from our Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) into easy-to-read guide and fact sheets. These summaries highlight the key findings, methods used to assess potential project impacts, and how we will manage or minimise them. These fact sheets are designed to help you understand the EIS and make informed submissions.

The EIS, prepared by SLR Consulting, involved various specialist consultants. The document references these appendices (studies) throughout. You can review them here.
