The strategy will build on the achievements of the Banyule Bicycle Strategy 2010•2020 and will support cycling for recreation or transport becoming a viable and safe mode choice for everyone. This draft strategy report provides a suite of recommendations to assist Banyule City Council to improve the quality of the bicycle network within the municipal boundary, increase connectivity to the surrounding network, and encourage cycling participation. These recommendations have been informed by a comprehensive assessment of the existing bicycle network within the City of Banyule. This assessment comprised the following: > A detailed site inspection; > Community engagement including consultation with key stakeholders such as Department of Transport (DoT), Council, the Banyule Bicycle User Group and other local stakeholders; > An assessment of existing facilities including traffic counts; > Collation of Principal Bicycle Network (PBN) and Strategic Cycling Corridor (SCC) databases; and > A literature review of existing background documentation including plans relevant to surrounding municipalities and greater Melbourne. This draft report and recommendations are presented to Council and community for review and comment. Input gained through this process will be reflected in the development of the final Banyule Bicycle Strategy 2020 and strategic action plan. 1.2 Background The Banyule local government area is located approximately 7km to 21km northeast of central Melbourne. Figure 1-1, shows the municipality in the context of surrounding councils. The Yarra River runs along the south- eastern boundary and Darebin Creek runs along the western boundary. Three Major Activity Centres (MACs) are located within this area, being Heidelberg, Ivanhoe and Greensborough. The La Trobe National Employment and Innovation Cluster (NEIC) is situated to the immediate west of the Banyule boundary, with the Metropolitan Ring Road and Greensborough Bypass located to the north. Banyule is primarily a residential area with a varying topography, including expansive areas of open space particularly along the Yarra and Plenty River valleys. Other key land uses include industrial uses, education institutions, health and leisure facilities. Figure 1-1 Banyule Local Government Area V190811 | 3 February 2021 | Commercial in Confidence 5 Draft Strategy Banyule Bicycle Strategy Based on the 2016 Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) census data, the population of Banyule is increasing at a 0.6% growth rate per annum with a median age of 39 years, higher than the median for both Victoria and Australia. Banyule is identified as having an ageing population which is forecast to continue over the next 30 years, resulting in an increase in the demand of health and aged care services. In order to minimise the associated cost impact to all levels of government and maintain community wellbeing, it is vital to provide a high level of access to public open space for low-impact recreation as well as good quality active mode infrastructure which decreases reliance on private vehicle transportation. At present car dependency identified as being high in Banyule, coupled with a lack of provision and connectivity of cycling infrastructure. A number of major projects of state significance are planned or occurring within the municipality, providing both an obstacle and an opportunity with respect to the cycling network. Improving cycling infrastructure is beneficial from a public health perspective, with additional environmental sustainability benefits associated with reduced private vehicle usage. Banyule City Council is committed to environmental sustainability having declared a climate emergency in 2019 and adopted an ambitious target of carbon neutrality by 2028. 1.3 Purpose of the Banyule Bicycle Strategy The development of the Banyule Bicycle Strategy (BBS) will significantly contribute towards creating a safe, convenient and accessible network of cycling infrastructure for all ages and abilities. Consideration is to be given to linkages with other transport modes and key destinations, while complementing Banyule’s natural environment, community character and the community’s overall standard of living. As an overview, the purpose of the BBS is to identify a set of objectives and key strategies to provide a framework for achieving this vision. This strategy seeks to do this by: > Establishing a framework for investment that follows a regional and corridor-based approach; > Prioritise a series of key actions to improve the provision of key cyclist infrastructure within Banyule; > Encouraging investment in advocacy, education and building a strong cycling culture within different groups; > Providing measurable benchmarking tools for goalsetting and measuring cycling trends; > Considering constraints to cycling within Banyule including topography, scale and demand; and > Advocate for inclusion of cycling infrastructure in all state government projects within the municipality. V190811 | 3 February 2021 | Commercial in Confidence 6 Draft Strategy Banyule Bicycle Strategy 2 Strategy Background 2.1 Existing Conditions To inform the development of proposed recommendations to improve Banyule’s Bicycle network and increase uptake within the region, Cardno has prepared a background report that investigated the existing conditions of bicycle infrastructure and community sentiment towards cycling within Banyule.

  • Koonung Creek Linear Park Management Plan 2011
    Message from the Mayor Our vision is for a vibrant, safe and culturally diverse community that fosters participation, connectedness, harmony, social inclusion, health and wellbeing. Our parks and reserves are the 'green lungs' for the City and are areas for our enjoyment. When we visit our parks and reserves we feel a sense of wellbeing. We need to plan for them so they can be enjoyed today and be there tomorrow for our children. A well-designed, planned and managed urban green space provides significant aesthetic, social, psychological and environmental benefits for their users. The Koonung Creek Linear Park is enjoyed by many of those who live in Bulleen, Doncaster, Doncaster East and Donvale and our neighbouring municipalities as well. When we improve the access to our natural setting we are improving the quality of life in our neighbourhoods. We are fortunate to have this wonderful “green” environment accessible by so many of our residents to enjoy a walk, cycle and time in a natural setting. There are many benefits for people who visit green, open spaces including: an opportunity to increase physical activity; lower stress levels; experience changes of scenery; and, a place to wind down. I would like to thank the community for their contribution to the consultation process as it has greatly assisted us to identify the issues and opportunities which have shaped the development of the recommendations. GEOFF GOUGH Mayor Executive Summary The Koonung Creek Linear Park Management Plan has been prepared to continue to protect and enhance the environmental values of the Park balanced with the provision of recreational opportunities and experiences in a mix of urban and natural setting, including, walking, cycling, dog walking, commuting and nature appreciation.

Submission for Environmental Effects Statement for the North East Link Submission to Planning Panels Victoria. Blackburn Village Residents Group Inc. Prepared by David Morrison. When do we reassess our approach? The case for better Public Transport Options. Melbourne commuter vehicles have less than 1.2 passengers per car, about 75% of Melbournians drive to work. A Melbourne train (6 carriages) carries about 1300 seated passengers, more if those standing are counted. Feeder roads south of eastern freeway are already near or exceeding capacity. NEL business case has Springvale Road (800), Surry Road (1100) and Middleborough Road (1600) vehicles per lane per hour during the am peak. Capacity is reached between 800 and 900 vehicles per hour. Land requirements for duplicated train line is much less than a multi lane freeway to move the same number of people. 14 trains leave Belgrave for the City in the morning peak between 7.30 and 8.30am. 18200 seated passengers and many more if those standing are counted. About 17 lanes of arterial road are required to move the 18200 people in that same hour assuming 1.2 people per car. I train line requires about the same space as one lane of traffic. Melbourne’s population will continue to grow. The NEL will not be the final answer. A stronger emphasis on public and active transport is required.

  • Shared Paths
    Shared paths – the issues They [cyclists] go ‘whoosh’ as they go past, and often the “ paths aren’t very wide, so this notion that you have to share has to come with more thought. If there’s not enough room it’s not a good match. If it’s got to be shared it’s got to be wider. Or separation between them.” Quote from focus groups with Victorian seniors (Garrard 2013) Thank You Victoria Walks would like to acknowledge and thank the following organisations who provided source information and feedback on the initial draft of this paper. • CDM Research • Frankston City Council • Wyndham City Council • Malcolm Daff Consulting • City of Yarra • Cardinia City Council Victoria Walks would also like to thank Dr Jan Garrard, VicRoads and officers from the following councils, who provided comment on the draft – Ballarat, Bayside, Boroondara, Brimbank, Dandenong, Latrobe, Macedon Ranges, Manningham, Maroondah, Melton, Moonee Valley, Mornington Peninsula, Nillumbik and Surf Coast.
