2 Introduction
This Community Liaison Management Plan (CLMP) covers all the work necessary for JHG to fulfil
its community obligations for the Easy Access Upgrade at Croydon Station.

3 Purpose and Scope


The Community Liaison Management Plan outlines JHG’s approach to the management of
community and stakeholder relations for the Croydon Station upgrade.

Specifically this plan outlines:

 the key community stakeholders, their potential risks and opportunities.

 the community and stakeholder management strategy and planning processes in place to
ensure community and stakeholder issues are addressed and aligned.

 the framework for the coordination and management of community and stakeholder
consultation and for handling community enquiries and complaints.

 the role of the Community Engagement Officer.

 details the communication strategies and methodologies.

 describes the controls and systems in place to ensure community relations procedures are
followed and reviewed.

 responds to the project’s Conditions of Approval, Works Brief, TSR’s and Project contract.

The Community Engagement Officer (CEO) will develop and implement communications
strategies, proactively engage with the community and manage community expectations. The CEO
will provide open and clear messaging and work cooperatively with TfNSW to clearly define and

COMMUNITY LIAISON MANAGEMENT PLAN
Croydon Station Upgrade

4 Project Description
The Croydon Station Upgrade is part of the Transport Access Program, a TfNSW initiative to
provide a better experience for public transport customers by delivering accessible, modern,
secure and integrated transport infrastructure. The purpose is to improve pedestrian access to and
from the station, increase the stations ability to cope with the predicted future customer demands,
improve pedestrian flow, passenger information services and wayfinding between transport modes.

The station is located in the suburb of Croydon. It is situated in the Burwood and Ashfield local
government areas (LGA). There is commercial activity along The Strand and Hennessy Street, and
residential development along Paisley Road.

Key features include:


 new lifts and stairs

 a new station concourse and pedestrian footbridge

 improved shelter

 new bicycle racks

 upgrades to lighting and CCTV.

5 Strategy
The Project is committed to respecting and valuing all stakeholders and engaging positively with
the community, government and non-government stakeholders.

To achieve this we will:

 establish and maintain effective and open communication with community members,
stakeholders groups and the project partners.
 be open and accessible to the community, stakeholders and customers.
 listen and respond to what the community and stakeholders have to say.
 provide timely, informative communications material that clearly explains the project works
and any potential impacts.
 where practicable, establish a community information display area within the project site
office to provide the community with the opportunity to obtain information about the project
and view project. Information such as posters, diagrams, newsletters and progress
photographs.
 identify and address key risks, impacts and opportunities.

COMMUNITY LIAISON MANAGEMENT PLAN
Croydon Station Upgrade

 ensure there are “no surprises” for stakeholders, the community, TfNSW and the wider
project team.
 do what we say we will do.
 conduct ourselves professionally in all that we do.
 actively look for opportunities to incorporate the community and stakeholder suggestions in
the design, construction and delivery phases of the project.
 support the project team in their relationships with key project stakeholders (i.e. authority
interfaces.

6 Authority Liaison
The Safety, Quality, Community and Environment Manager and Community Engagement Officer
will develop and build strong working relationships with key project stakeholders and authorities in
conjunction with the project team.

Authorities are defined as any stakeholder from whom JHG must seek and receive an approval, be
it a license, permit or other signed authority in order to deliver the works.

The strategy will be for the Safety, Quality, Community and Environment Managers and/or
Community Engagement Officer to establish and build these relationships and then align the
nominated authority representative with the appropriate Project representative to interface during
the various stages of the works.

These key authorities for the project works include:

8 Communication Tools and Activities


The following communications tools and activities will be used to inform, consult and involve the
local councils, residents, business, property owners, transport users and other sensitive receivers:

Inform by:

 Producing and displaying project information signage.


 Regular project / construction updates.
 Providing special notices such as out-of-hours work notices, as required.
 Direct consultation including briefings, meetings, phone calls, emails and letters
 Providing the TfNSW Infoline and 24 Hour Construction Response Line on all
communications materials.
 Responding to complaints within 2 hours and enquiries within 24 hours.
 Project worksite signage.
 Newspaper advertisements, as required.
 Media releases.
 TfNSW website.
 TfNSW social media.

Consult by:

 Engaging and liaising with local Councils, the community and business representatives and
organisations to incorporate, where appropriate, their feedback.
 Conducting one on one briefings with local residents and businesses, where required
 Consulting directly with sensitive receivers such as schools to identify noise sensitive
periods and respite periods, e.g. during exam periods.
 Inviting written submissions and offering feedback during the project.

Involve by:

 Engaging the schools through educational opportunities including safety programs and
Plant a Tree Day.
 Inviting local schools / community / Council to provide input and ideas into the landscaping
and any art project that may be implemented.

Prior to the project team undertaking any public events, information sessions, establishing any
artistic programs, school or community projects, JHG will brief TfNSW to seek endorsement for the
activity.

9 Staff Induction / Education


A number of policies, procedures and tools will be produced to drive and educate worker behaviour
within the community. The list below provides an example of some of these tools, which will be
reviewed and expanded as the project evolves:

Doc. No: EASUProj1-GL-PLN-DN-001

This Plan is the property of John Holland and may not be copied, distributed or used without the express written consent of John Holland
COMMUNITY LIAISON MANAGEMENT PLAN
Croydon Station Upgrade

Educate the workforce by:


 Providing a Community Expectation handout to all personnel at induction.
 Establishing a Driver Behaviour policy, and
 Providing specific Information Sessions to project personnel to educate them on community
expectations. Examples of such sessions would include:

- Community Perception – what we do and how the community perceives us.


- Cultural diversity – respecting our neighbours.
- Events – what is happening in the area to consider (prayer hours etc?)
- Environmental Management – what happens if we don’t comply?
The Project’s permanent and temporary site staff and subcontractors are required to attend a site
induction, prior to commencing work, which covers all aspects of the project including:

From a community perspective, all personnel are expected to understand the importance of being
a “good neighbour” on site and respecting the community. This includes:

 Minimising disruption to adjacent residents, property owners and transport users.


 Understanding the Project’s commitment to keeping the community informed in a timely,
clear and concise manner.
 Working to the approved project hours.
 Watching our language in public spaces.
 Site management – keeping areas clean and tidy – within and outside site.
 Understanding the enquiries /complaints / media enquiries process.
 Understanding incident management.
 Always carrying the TfNSW Project Information Card in case of an enquiry or complaint.
 When dedicated staff parking is not available, staff must not park within 400m radius of the
railway station/town centre.

The Induction has been submitted to TfNSW for review and approval prior to being rolled out on
the project. The “Onsite Track Easy” system will be implemented as an on-line induction system.
This is then followed up with a face-to-face induction when a person comes to site for the first time.

Daily and weekly Toolbox Inductions will also occur, introducing Safety Alerts, revisiting parts of
the formal Induction and reminding staff and subcontractors of the project requirements.

11 Communication Management System


The Project team will utilise TfNSW’s Communication Management System (CMS) – Consultation
Manager – to enable the project to record, monitor and report on interaction with all stakeholders,
community and service providers. Specifically, the Consultation Manager (CM) database
management system is a tool that will:

 Record all community and stakeholders contacts.


 Record letterbox drops, project updates, notifications, stakeholder interaction.
 Be the management tool for recording all complaints, enquiries, issues and responses.
 Record the utility/service providers and key personnel.
 Provide monthly reports on community contact, complaints, enquiries and issues
management.
 Be utilised to identify issues and opportunities through key word referencing.

In addition to stakeholder engagement, the CMS will be used to record all project related articles
(paper and web based) and any online discussions.

12 Coordination of Communication Activity


The project CEO will work with TfNSW through a Communications Management Control Group
(CMCG), to plan and coordinate the release of portion specific community information.

The aim of the CMCG is to provide a forum to exchange information and coordinate
communication and consultation activities with other Contractors and TfNSW to ensure a
consistent approach to the community and other stakeholders is delivered.

At these meetings:

 The CMCG will meet fortnightly to coordinate communications activities and messages for
all programmed works (or less frequently if determined by TfNSW).
 The project will provide a table of current and upcoming activities, likely impacts and
proposed communication strategies.
 The project will provide a list of any current or emerging issues and/or any promotional
opportunities.
 The meetings will be minuted by TfNSW and project team members will be invited as
required to provide input.

13 Meetings with the Community and Other Stakeholders


As required, the CEO and Safety, Quality, Community and Environment Managers will meet with
the community and stakeholders. This may include regular interface meetings with the local
councils, special interest groups, meetings with local residents or businesses (including after
hours) and as required by TfNSW.

Relevant materials will be provided by the project for these meetings and suitably qualified and
informed persons will be made available to participate at the meetings and provide detail of the
works or issues. These meetings will provide the opportunity for community issues to be
discussed and resolved (where possible) when community issues arise.

Where feasible, the project will comply with the reasonable suggestions and request of the
community. Details of all such meetings will be recorded in the CMS within 24 hours of the
meeting taking place.

The Project Team will provide TfNSW a minimum of 3 Business Days’ notice prior to any planned
meeting with the community or stakeholders.

14 Community Notification
All Community Updates, Out-of-Hours notices, project information flyers and other communications
material (including but not limited to posters, newspaper advertisements, and signage) must
comply with the “TfNSW Transport Projects Style Guide for Contractors and Consultants – 8TP-st-
100” and the “TfNSW” Editorial Style Guidelines”.

The communications material will proactively notify the community and key stakeholders of current
and forthcoming activities including those that have the potential to impact on the community.
Materials must be issued to the community at least 7 days prior to commencing any activity with
the potential to impact the community. All materials will include the project contact numbers, details
of the TfNSW website and an email address to refer any enquiries.

The Project Team will produce and distribute all community notifications relating to the project in
English and as required in languages widely spoken in the communities where the notifications are
distributed.

The Project Team will submit for approval to TfNSW proposed communications materials for
review at least 5 business days prior to the planned release of all communication material.

At a minimum, the community will be provided with quarterly Construction/Project Updates that
outline the current and forthcoming activities and impacts of the works. The communications
materials will be uploaded by TfNSW to the project page on the TfNSW website. All documents will
be provided to TfNSW in a web accessible format.

No signage, advertising or branding, excluding safety signage, will be placed on the external face
of any hoarding or fence without the prior written approval of TfNSW.

The Project will provide, as requested, the resources required to assist TfNSW with the provision
and / or installation of any other signage or graphics required on the hoardings or fencing.

Hoardings, site sheds, fencing, acoustic walls around the perimeter of the site and any structures
built as part of the project works will be maintained free of graffiti and advertising not authorised by
TfNSW during the construction period.

Daily inspections for graffiti and unauthorised advertising will be carried out and material removed
or covered within the following time frames:

 Offensive graffiti will be cleaned or covered within 24 hours.


 Highly visible yet non-offensive graffiti will be cleaned or covered within 1 week.
 Graffiti that is neither offensive nor highly visible will be cleaned or covered during normal
operations within one month.
 Any advertising material will be removed or covered within 24 hours.

17 Communication Strategies
Communication strategies will be produced to address potential disruptions to businesses, station
customers and other interested groups. Additional strategies may need to be produced as
required by TfNSW including times when customers, public transport services or businesses
(parking) will be impacted.
The strategies will include:
 Identification of those potentially impacted by the works.

 An analysis of the issues to be managed and proposed strategies for managing these
issues.

 Details of proposed communication and consultation tools to be used by the Project Team.

 Details of initial and ongoing engagement activities.

 Details of activities which will be undertaken to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of
the communication strategies adopted.

These approaches and the specific local concerns will be further developed in consultation with
TfNSW during the works.
