North-South Corridor - Torrens to Darlington (T2D) environmental regulation
The Torrens to Darlington (T2D) project is the most significant road infrastructure project ever undertaken by the South Australian Department for Infrastructure and Transport (DIT). The project consists of two sets of twin tunnels, lowered and ground-level motorways, and overpasses and underpasses at key intersections. The T2D Project is the final 10.5 km section of the North-South Corridor, and will complete 78 km of non-stop, traffic light-free motorway between Gawler and Old Noarlunga.
As South Australia’s independent environment protection regulator, the EPA works closely with industry, the community, and government agencies to protect our unique natural environment while supporting economic growth and improving wellbeing.
The EPA plays a significant role in providing timely and effective advice about environmental aspects of the project to DIT, the community, and other stakeholders. The EPA also ensures requirements of the Environment Protection Act 1993 and other legislation are met through all phases of the project. This includes egislation relevant to the T2D project relates to:
- Air quality
- Noise and vibration
- Planning
- Soil disposal, waste and recycling
- Water quality.
