2023 Works Approval is now closed.
Thank you for your feedback.
As part of the planning approval process, a Works Approval was open for public consultation, while a Development Application was also open for public consultation.
The community was invited to review the documentation submitted as part of the works approval and development application, which included plans, designs and an Environmental Assessment.
Your feedback helped the NCA and ACTPLA understand the views of the community and inform their assessment of the project.
An Environmental Assessment (EA) has been prepared to support the Works Approval and Development Application. The EA provided a complete assessment of the project including its environmental impacts, and the management and mitigation measures proposed to address those impacts. Chapter summaries and fact sheets to help you understand the EA and inform your submission can be found on the Light Rail website.
