The committee, made up of local representatives, was formed after the preferred Milton/Ulladulla bypass option was announced and they had their first meeting recently which was attended by Transport NSW representatives.

Questions on bridges, preferred options, speed zones, lanes and much more were tabled at the meeting

Committee members took the chance to ask the attending Transport NSW representatives many questions - including a preferred plan through Burrill Lake.

"There are a range of different ways we could move vehicles in, through or around Burrill," the Transport NSW spokesperson said.

"What the team have started to look at is what are the constraints, what is the topography and how may these impact the community?

"We have developed a few corridor options which we will share and discuss as part of this co-design process.

"We have come here to work out a solution with the committee. We have done some work so that when we speak to you about some of the alignments we can understand the constraints, the challenges of some journey types and some of the different ways we can separate local traffic from those travelling through."

Committee members, however, expressed disappointment in the minimal detail provided by Transport NSW regarding the Milton Ulladulla bypass' connection with Canberra Crescent.

The disappointment was noted by Transport NSW.

A committee member expressed concern about the impacts to Burrill Lake, based on the broad options presented, and explained their reason for joining the committee was to find ways to not destroy the township.

"Transport will take the committee's feedback on board, and understands that Burrill Lake is special to locals and visitors and will consider these values when identifying options to upgrade the highway," the spokesperson said.

"We are at the very early stages of planning. During this process we will look at speed zones and how they impact the alignment so that we can discuss as a group and gather feedback to make speed limits part of the options it recommends."

There were several requests for timelines for the project, more detailed information on traffic modelling and for more information on potential alignments to be shown at future meetings.

The committee also asked how traffic would cross the existing Burrill Lake Bridge? if the bypass would accommodate heavy vehicles when the funding has not been confirmed for the upgrade at Burrill Lake?

"Changes can be made to the bridge to support a larger volume of traffic and Transport will confirm the capacity for high mass limit vehicles (HML.)," a Transport representative said at the meeting.

"At this early stage of planning, bridges within the Milton Ulladulla bypass corridor has been reviewed."

Transport will provide details on the weight capacity for the Burrill Lake bridge at the next meeting.

Transport NSW clarified that the existing Burrill Lake Bridge could be re-configured to accommodate three lanes and could be widened to accommodate four lanes.

Committee members then asked if the corridor is confirmed as two lanes each way from Little Forest Road to Canberra Crescent?

"The corridor has been confirmed. However, Transport is yet to determine a range of features including the number of lanes or local road connections. These are the considerations we are looking at," the transport spokesperson said.

"Given the topography of the study area, there would be challenges for a single lane bypass in each direction because of the requirements for climbing lanes, heavy vehicle overtaking lanes and other considerations.

"The team will be looking at what is required from a traffic perspective, future-proofing perspective and how to manage slowing vehicles on sloping grades."

At the first meeting, Transport NSW provided an overview of the process so far which has led to this committee being formed.

After the NSW Government announced its preferred by-pass option members of the public were invited to apply to join the committee.

The committee's second meeting was held this week.

Committee members are encouraged to discuss items raised with the community groups they're representing and provide feedback to the committee.
