  • 92 4.3 Urban Dynamics in the Melbourne Metropolitan Area Affecting the Network of Centres the Following Discussion Outlines Some
    Activity Centre Policy Review 4.3 Urban Dynamics in the Melbourne Metropolitan Area Affecting The Network of Centres The following discussion outlines some key dynamics affecting the development of metropolitan activity patterns, and their implications for activity centres. 4.3.1 Demographic and Social Changes Changes to the demographic profile of the city’s population inevitably affects patterns of activities in and usage of centres. Localised changes occur in particular areas as a result of immigration, gentrification or generational change. The single largest demographic trend projected to affect Melbourne in the decades to come will be the aging of the population. The average proportion of Melbourne’s population over the age of 60 is expected to increase from 16% in 1996 to 23% by 2021. This will occur as a result of the effects of the baby boom in the post-war period, the general improvements in health causing people to live longer, and declining birth rates with couples having fewer children or choosing not to have children. Other important trends are real growth in household disposal incomes and increased workforce participation rates, particularly by women. The rate of population growth in the metropolitan area is in decline as a result of low levels of natural increase. The average household size is projected to decline to 2.34 by 2021 (down from 2.68 in 1996) due to factors such as couples having less children, increased rates of marriage break-ups, increased longevity and spouse survival rate. There is a trend towards people moving back into the inner areas of Melbourne.

  • Separating Prospects from Propaganda in Urban Consolidation
    Infrastructure 15 Separating Prospects from Propaganda in Urban Consolidation Dr Raymond Bunker Darren Holloway Professor Bill Randolph UNSW/UWS AHURI Research Centre INTRODUCTION Urban consolidation has become the main instrument of urban development in Australia’s major metropolitan centres over the past years. It has been espoused longest and strongest in Sydney as the largest Australian city and one increasingly limited by severe topographical and environmental constraints. This paper examines three related key issues in which urban consolidation plays a prominent role in policy and advocacy. They are: • the part urban consolidation plays in current metropolitan strategies as an instrument in attempts to reconfigure and restructure metropolitan areas; • the ways in which urban consolidation may have helped to satisfy an increasing variety of housing needs by improving the range of dwelling choice in terms of cost, tenure, location and type of dwelling; • the ways in which urban consolidation may help to reduce car-dependence in Australian cities. The paper examines findings on these matters insofar as they can be supported by empirical data and research analysis, and then reviews and comments on the results. Because this is a report of research in progress, the results are somewhat uneven in terms of the firmness of the conclusions that can be drawn from them. For space reasons it concentrates on Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane. HOW IS URBAN CONSOLIDATION USED AS AN INSTRUMENT IN THE SPATIAL ORGANIZATION OF AUSTRALIAN CITIES IN CURRENT METROPOLITAN STRATEGIES? Melbourne Melbourne 2030: Planning for Sustainable Growth (Department of Infrastructure 2002) is the first of the three metropolitan strategies considered here to be finalised, and one which is well supported by linked documents, data and information.
