Hobart Community and Industry Suggested Alternatives
In April 2022, Airservices completed the Post Implementation Review (PIR) for the Hobart flight path changes that were implemented in November 2019. Airservices conducts PIRs into airspace and flight path changes to verify assumptions about potential environmental and community impacts and to determine the effectiveness of the environmental impact assessment and community engagement processes. The outcomes of PIRs inform future changes and improve the overall change management process.
The scope of the Hobart PIR was developed in consultation with the community and considered the supporting environmental assessments for the flight path changes, community information regarding aircraft operations and forecast noise, and flight path suggested alternatives from the community and industry.
The PIR identified an array of alternatives suggested by the community and industry, some of which were found to be viable for further investigation and detailed assessment. We have commenced detailed evaluation of these alternatives and have divided them into two packages of work.
Package 1 involves recommended action 5.
Package 2 includes recommended actions 4 and 6 -10.
A list of the recommended actions from the PIR is available here Hobart PIR Recommended Actions
