Macleay River Floodplain Prioritisation Study
No full textThe Coastal Floodplain Prioritisation Study covered seven estuaries on the NSW floodplain. The study included an extensive data collection and collation process to improve understanding of the processes and areas that contribute to poor water quality and improve overall floodplain management. The data delivered here includes information on floodplain drainage infrastructure, soil stratigraphy and hydraulic conductivity, sea level rise vulnerability and drain cross sections. The final outcomes of the prioritisation for the Macleay River floodplain with respect to acid and blackwater generation is also provided. \r\

Bicycle count surveys
No full textThis dataset contains the results of the bicycle count survey in the City of Sydney. The City has conducted twice yearly intersection cycle counts at various sites in peak hours (6-9 am and 4-7 pm) on one day in March and October every year, since March 2010 (excluding March 2018). This data shows the total number of cyclists at the site during peak hours as well as individual survey hours
Aboriginal History Explorer
No full textThis map, which covers Sydney’s inner city area, identifies the location of places that have historical associations for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in Sydney. Each place is connected to a historical theme that expresses an aspect of cultural life in Sydney – these themes are colour coded throughout the website and on this map. Together these themes provide a layered narrative of the lived experience of Sydney’s Aboriginal people.  While all these places have historical significance, many have changed or disappeared. Others are private buildings or educational facilities that are not suitable to visit. View this map, and to learn more, visit Barani Sydney's Aboriginal history

Australian Road Assessment Program - AusRAP
No full textAusRAP is the Australian Road Assessment Program. It is used to identify, manage and improve the safety of road infrastructure and roadside features to systematically and proactively reduce road trauma. AusRAP rates the risks and safety performance of Australia’s roads and is based on the globally recognised International Road Assessment Program (iRAP). \r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nAusRAP aims to improve road safety across Australia by assessing road conditions that influence crash risk and assigning safety star ratings. Roads are rated from 1-star (least safety features) to 5-star (most safety features) based on a broad range of road information, including current infrastructure (for example barriers, rumble strips), speed limits, traffic volume, road markings, roadside hazards, pedestrian crossings and cycling infrastructure.\r\n \r\n\r\nFor more information please see the [Centre for Road Safety](https://www.transport.nsw.gov.au/roadsafety/what-we-do/safe-system/nsw-ausrap-map) page
