    Journal of Transportation Technologies, 2013, Vol. 3, No.4 doi:10.4236/jtts.2013. Published Online October 2013 (http://www.scirp.org/journal/jtts) Peak Car Use and the Rise of Global Rail: Why this is happening and what it means for large and small cities Peter Newman1, Jeffrey Kenworthy1, Garry Glazebrook2 1Curtin University Sustainability Policy (CUSP) Institute, Fremantle, Australia 2University of Technology, Sydney (UTS), Sydney, Australia Email: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Received July 2013 Abstract The 21st century promises some dramatic changes – some expected, others surprising. One of the more surprising changes is the dramatic peaking in car use and an associated increase in the world’s urban rail systems. This paper sets out what is happening with the growth of rail, especially in the traditional car dependent cities of the US and Aus- tralia, and why this is happening, particularly its relationship to car use declines. It provides new data on the plateau in the speed of urban car transportation that supports rail’s increasing role compared to cars in cities everywhere, as well as other structural, economic and cultural changes that indicate a move away from car dependent urbanism. The paper suggests that the rise of urban rail is a contributing factor in peak car use through the relative reduction in speed of traf- fic compared to transit, especially rail, as well as the growing value of dense, knowledge-based centers that depend on rail access for their viability and cultural attraction. Finally, the paper suggests what can be done to make rail work bet- ter based on some best practice trends in large cities and small car dependent cities.

It contains a brief further statement by me plus an ACT Legislative Assembly Hansard detailing 2 petitions to the ACT Legislative Assembly which may be pertinent to the Committee's discussion with any ACT Government representatives. Dr Michael Crawford Community Attitudes to Wind Farms Dr Michael Crawford 14th May 2015 SENATE SELECT COMMITTEE ON WIND TURBINES SUBMISSION – COMMUNITY ATTITUDES Community Attitudes to Wind Farms It is common for wind farm proponents to cite surveys that claim support for wind farms gathered in vague terms and then purport to use such surveys to support the establishment of wind farms in specific locations. In fact many people have far more careful views about wind farms that include the conditions under which they believe they should be established and operated. Many individuals who support wind farms in principle nonetheless accept they should not be established in ways likely to harm neighbours. An example is provided by a petition submitted to the ACT Legislative Assembly on 16th September 2014 by Ms Nicole Lawder. The text of the petition (Petition No 16-14) as reported in the Hansard of the Legislative Assembly for the ACT (copy attached), p 2688, is as follow: To the Honourable the Speaker and Members of the Legislative Assembly of New South Wales and Australian Capital Territory.
