Introduction 1.1 Gold Coast Rapid Transit Project The Gold Coast Rapid Transit (GCRT) Project is a major Government initiative in creating a more sustainable Gold Coast City. The project will deliver a public transport system that is fast, frequent, reliable and integrated with the existing transport network. In June 2006 State Cabinet approved the development of a Concept Design and Impact Management Plan and Business Case for two rapid transit mode options under Government’s Value for Money Framework. The GCRT Project is included in the South East Queensland Regional Plan (SEQRP) and funded in South East Queensland Infrastructure Plan and Program 2005•2026 (SEQIPP). The lead Government Agency, TransLink will develop the Concept Design and Impact Management Plan and Business Case in partnership with Gold Coast City Council (GCCC) who has also allocated future funding for public transport improvements on the Gold Coast. The new rapid transit system is intended to link the Gold Coast Railway at Helensvale with the Griffith University/University Hospital precinct and the busy centres of Southport, Surfer's Paradise, Broadbeach, and ultimately Gold Coast Airport and Coolangatta Town Centre. The rapid transit mode options under investigation are: » A light rail transit (LRT) system with low floor air•conditioned vehicles on a standard gauge fixed track drawing power from either an embedded rail or overhead wires. » A bus rapid transit (BRT) system that offers a much higher quality service than an ordinary bus, with specially designed buses running very frequent services and higher reliability and faster travel times than buses operating in mixed traffic. Both systems will operate within a dedicated corridor, mostly centre running within existing roads. In some areas, a corridor adjacent to the road or mixed running with traffic has been considered. Regardless of the chosen mode, the technology option will use a dedicated carriageway ‘at grade’ with priority provided at traffic signals to promote fast and reliable journey times. The Concept Design and Impact Management Plan (CDIMP) and Business Case are based on detailed studies for Stage 1 (Helensvale to Broadbeach), with initial planning investigations of Stage 2 (Broadbeach to Coolangatta). The Stage 1 corridor, as shown in Figure 1, connects to the Gold Coast Rail Line at the existing Helensvale Rail station and terminates at Broadbeach at a new bus/rapid transit interchange. Stage 1 has been evaluated and planned in the following 3 sections: » Section 1: Helensvale to Griffith University. Two corridor options are subject to detailed planning evaluation; » Section 2: Griffith University to Southport; and » Section 3: Southport to Broadbeach including Surfers Paradise.

This report investigates a complex relationship of current land uses and future land uses both in the context of planned and new opportunities. This report addresses the multiple layers of land use planning regulation, administration and policy framework. This report also investigates the intrinsic relationship of land uses and transport infrastructure focusing on the GCRT Project and its affect on land use. For detailed information on the opportunities and benefits associated with the GCRT, as well as an outline of its associated impacts and proposed mitigation strategies, refer to Volume 2, Chapter 12, titled Land Use and Planning. The land use and planning section satisfies the TOR by examining the following: » Land use planning context; » Land uses within the GCRT corridor; » Existing tenure of properties within the GCRT corridor; » Anticipated future land uses; and » Potential benefits and impacts of the GCRT. Vol 7 Tech • 3 41/16445/04/352689 Gold Coast Rapid Transit Project Volume 7 Technical Report: Land Use and Planning 2. Land use planning context 2.1 State planning framework 2.1.1 State Coastal Management Plan The State Coastal Management Plan (SCMP) is a statutory instrument under section 29 of theCoastal Protection and Management Act 1995 (Coastal Act) and has the effect of a State Planning Policy under the Integrated Planning Act 1997 (IPA). GCCC is within the coastal zone, therefore must have regard to the SCMP when undertaking development assessment under the IPA, particularly if the development is impact assessable. The SCMP seeks to manage and protect coastal areas by recognising Coastal Management Districts (CMD) and managing the impacts which may be placed upon them. The Coastal Protection and Management Act 1995 states that there is the need for Coastal Management Districts. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has specific responsibilities in regards to the assessment of Development Applications located within Coastal Management Districts. The proposed development will occur within the South East Queensland CMD encompassing Currumbin, Burleigh, Southport and Nerang. 2.1.2 State planning policies A State planning policy (SPP) is a statutory planning instrument under the IPA that relates to matters of Queensland state interest. SPPs must be considered as part of the assessment process for development of land. The following SPPs need to be considered for the proposed GCRT: 2.1.3 SPP 1/92 Development and Conservation of Agricultural Land SPP 1/92 addresses the conservation of good quality agricultural land (GQAL) and provides guidance to local authorities and state government on how GQAL needs to be considered when carrying out their range of planning

  • Road Networked Artificial Islands and Finger Island Canal Estates on Australia’S Gold Coast
    Absolute Waterfrontage: Road Networked Artificial Islands and Finger Island Canal Estates on Australia’s Gold Coast Philip Hayward Kagoshima University Research Center for the Pacific Islands, University of Technology Sydney, & Southern Cross University, Lismore [email protected] Christian Fleury University of Caen, Normandy [email protected] Abstract: The Gold Coast, an urban conurbation stretching along the Pacific seaboard and adjacent hinterland of south east Queensland, has developed rapidly since the 1950s. Much of its development has involved the modification of existing watercourses so as to produce stable areas of land suitable for medium and high density development. This article addresses one particular facet of this, the development of artificial islands and of estates of ‘finger islands’ (narrow, peninsular areas with direct waterfrontage) and the canalised waterways that facilitate them. The article commences with a discussion of the concepts behind such developments and the nomenclature that has accrued to them, highlighting the contradictions between branding of finger island estates and the actualities of their realisation. This discussion is supported by historical reference to earlier artificial island estates in Florida that provided a model for Australian developers. Case studies of three specific Gold Coast waterfront locations conclude the main body of the article, reflecting on factors related to the stability of their community environments.

    QUT Digital Repository: http://eprints.qut.edu.au/ Moore, Keith (2005) Embracing the Make-believe — The Making of Surfers Paradise. Australian Studies 18(1):pp. 187-210. © Copyright 2005 British Australian Studies Association 7 Embracing the Make-believe – The Making of Surfers Paradise KEITH MOORE School of Humanities and Human Services, Carseldine Campus – Queensland University of Technology, Beams Road, Carseldine, Queensland 4034, Australia. [email protected] A name can create an image that can have a powerful determining effect on an eventual outcome. In 1917, Real Estate Agent Thor Jensen decided that the name ‘Surfers Paradise’ could conjure the image of a beachside ‘Shangri-la’ in the minds of Australians. Together with Arthur Blackwood, he bought virtually uninhabited coastal land overlooking the Pacific Ocean at Elston, to the south of Southport, and sold it as ‘The Surfers Paradise Estate’. Opening a hotel a short distance from the foreshore eight years later, James Cavill embraced Jensen’s vision by naming his establishment ‘The Surfers Paradise Hotel’. Other entrepreneurs joined Cavill in catering for tourists and by the mid-1950s, the price of land at Surfers Paradise had gone ‘sky high’. The excitement continued with high-rise apartments and international-standard tourist hotels replacing much of the low-set accommodation erected a decade earlier. In commenting in 1988 that envy existed over the way Surfers Paradise had triumphed over other Gold Coast locations by possessing such a ‘promotable’ title, historian Alexander McRobbie recognised the locality’s unassailable position. Clearly, ‘Elston’ Australian Studies, Vol. 18, No. 1, Summer 2003, pp. 187-210 (issued in 2005) Published by the BRITISH AUSTRALIAN STUDIES ASSOCIATION 188 AUSTRALIAN STUDIES could not have captured the public’s imagination as a tourist destination in the way that Surfers Paradise had.

ISBN-10: 0-9876055-0-X ISBN-13: 978-0-9876055-0-4 Run to Paradise The Chevron Hotel, Gold Coast, from Foundation to Renaissance Katherine Rickard Griffith University and Mode Design The post-war “boom” of the 1950s heralded an expansion into new holiday accommodation typologies on Australia’s Gold Coast. The introduction of the resort-hotel irrevocably altered the scale and type of architecture on the Gold Coast and established the direction that the development of the city has followed to this day. Among the projects that can be considered to have established this trajectory Stanley Korman’s Chevron Hotel is the undervalued middle child, oft overlooked but whose evolution over the proceeding half- century to its turn of the millennium Renaissance presents a narrative of the pursuit of an escape to ‘paradise’ on Australia’s Gold Coast. Following the end of World War Two the Gold Coast developed and expanded rapidly, during a period of economic “boom” with unprecedented growth throughout much of Australia, and indeed the western world.
