Rock of Ages, Melbourne SALES to 25 Sep 2011 ROCK OF AGES, MELBOURNE ROCK OF AGES is a hilarious, feel-good love story told through the hit songs such as: ‘I Want to Know What Love Is’, ‘Don’t Stop Believin’’, ‘The Final Countdown’, ‘We Built This City’ and ‘More Than Words’ by iconic rockers such as Foreigner, Journey, Styx, REO Speedwagon, Poison, Starship, Pat Benatar, Whitesnake, and many more. The Australian production of this critically acclaimed Broadway musical will open at the Comedy Theatre, Melbourne in April 2011. Set in 1987 on the Sunset Strip, a small-town girl meets a big-city dreamer and in L.A.’s most legendary rock club, they fall in love to the greatest songs of the ‘80s. It’s an awesomely good time where big hair meets big dreams in a Rock ‘n’ Roll comedy romance. Following an extremely successful Off Broadway run in October 2008 and a bidding war over the film rights in which NewL ine Cinema won, and Adam Shankman (HAIRSPRAY) is directing, ROCK OF AGES transferred to Broadway’s Brooks Atkinson Theatre in April 2009 to critical acclaim and continued audience adoration. ROCK OF AGES was nominated for five 2009 TonyA wards®, including Best Musi- cal, Best Actor in a Musical, Best Direction of a Musical, Best Costume Design of a Musical, and Best Sound Design for a Musical. 3 nights, flights & show ticket from: $ per adult 855 share double INCLUDES: Return airfares economy class airfares to Melbourne flyingA ir New Zealand direct from Christchurch, 3 nights accommodation as specified and Rock ofA ges ‘A’ Reserve Show Ticket (Tuesday to Thursday performances*) * For performances on Friday-Sunday add $45 per person to the package prices SHOW TIMES SHOW TIMES Playing at the Comedy Theatre, Melbourne Tuesday & Wednesday Evening 7.00pm Thursday-Saturday Evening 8.00pm Saturday & Sunday Matinee 2.00pm For applicable close out dates, please refer to your House of Travel consultant Melbourne SALES: to 25 Sep 2011 FORMULE 1 MERCURE WELCOME RENDEZVOUS MELBOURNE Ideally located in the heart of Melbourne city centre, only Next door to David Jones Department Store and around Cross the road and you’re at Flinders Street Station and a minutes from local transport.

  • Transporting Melbourne's Recovery
    Transporting Melbourne’s Recovery Immediate policy actions to get Melbourne moving January 2021 Executive Summary The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted how Victorians make decisions for when, where and how they travel. Lockdown periods significantly reduced travel around metropolitan Melbourne and regional Victoria due to travel restrictions and work-from-home directives. As Victoria enters the recovery phase towards a COVID Normal, our research suggests that these travel patterns will shift again – bringing about new transport challenges. Prior to the pandemic, the transport network was struggling to meet demand with congested roads and crowded public transport services. The recovery phase adds additional complexity to managing the network, as the Victorian Government will need to balance competing objectives such as transmission risks, congestion and stimulating greater economic activity. Governments across the world are working rapidly to understand how to cater for the shifting transport demands of their cities – specifically, a disruption to entire transport systems that were not designed with such health and biosecurity challenges in mind. Infrastructure Victoria’s research is intended to assist the Victorian Government in making short-term policy decisions to balance the safety and performance of the transport system with economic recovery. The research is also designed to inform decision-making by industry and businesses as their workforces return to a COVID Normal. It focuses on how the transport network may handle returning demand and provides options to overcome the crowding and congestion effects, while also balancing the health risks posed by potential local transmission of the virus. Balancing these impacts is critical to fostering confidence in public transport travel, thereby underpinning and sustaining Melbourne’s economic recovery.

  • Getting My Tram Ticket
    ® Getting my tram ticket Department of Transport Images taken before the COVID-19 pandemic, you must wear a face mask while travelling on public transport. 2 Many people use trams to travel in Melbourne. I might take a tram to go somewhere. Some tram stops in Melbourne’s city centre are in an area called the Free Tram Zone. People do not need a ticket to travel between tram stops in this area. 3 People know which stops are in the Free Tram Zone by looking at the route maps, looking at the signs at the stop or by asking Yarra Trams staff. Outside of the Free Tram Zone, it’s important that everyone has a ticket to travel on the tram. 4 There are several types of tickets. Before I catch the tram, I choose the right type of ticket for me. Most people use a ticket called a myki. 5 mykis can be bought from Public Transport Victoria (PTV) Hubs and some myki machines. People also buy them at some shops like 7-Eleven. mykis can also be used on an android phone. This is called Mobile myki. 6 The cost of travel on my myki is called the fare. I can check the fares on the PTV website. I need to put money onto a myki to travel on the tram. This is called topping up my myki. I could do this at a myki machine, PTV Hub or online at ptv.vic.gov.au. 7 Trams have a myki reader near each door. They can look different depending on the tram.

  • Time Series Analysis of the Skyline and Employment Changes in the CBD
    ARTICLES TIME SERIES ANALYSIS OF THE SKYLINE AND EMPLOYMENT CHANGES IN THE CBD OF MELBOURNE Jun Tsutsumi, Ehime University Correspondence to Jun Tsutsumi: [email protected] Kevin O’Connor, The University of Melbourne Correspondence to Kevin O’Connor: [email protected] This paper covers historical and micro level analyses of floor space and employment in the CBD of Melbourne during the last two decades. The time-series patterns and processes of high-rise building provision in the CBD are also focused on. The CBD has experienced very complicated changes over the last two decades. While particular types of urban functions, say finance and insurance offices and many retail activities, have been dispersed to the suburbs, newly emerged activities have replaced the old and traditional ones. Despite the growth of suburban cores (office and retail), the CBD of Melbourne has still kept its strong centrality through a role as the main location of office activity in particular. Historical and micro level viewpoints provide a new understanding of the metropolitan area. The key question must be ‘Why is the role of the CBD of Melbourne still so strong, given substantial dispersal of population and economic activity to suburban locations?’ INTRODUCTION Melbourne is the second largest city after Sydney in the Australian urban system. As many articles argued, the globalization of the economy and the related growth of business service activities, which occurred in the late 1980s and the 1990s, created a strong demand for office spaces in big cities. Sydney received the majority of global investments, while Melbourne ranks second behind Sydney in every category of investment (Hajdu 1994).

    PLACES FOR PEOPLE City of Melbourne in collaboration with GEHL ARCHITECTS, Urban Quality Consultants Copenhagen MELBOURNE 2004 Client City of Melbourne Design and Culture PO BOX 1603 Melbourne 3001 Victoria Australia City of Melbourne project team Project director: Prof Rob Adams Project coordinator: Ros Rymer (Research, analysis and mapping) Project team: Jenny Rayment (Text and layout) Robert Moore (Advisor) Alastair Campbell (Research and photographs) Consultant Project manager: Jan Gehl, Professor, Dr. litt. Project coordinator: Henriette Mortensen, arch. MAA Project team: Paule Ducourtial, arch. MAA Isabel Sandra Duckett, arch. MAA Lisa Hilden Nielsen, stud. arch. Joan Maria Raun Nielsen, stud. arch. foreword Over the last decade Melbourne has experienced an urban renaissance through a gradual but consistent transformation of streets, lanes and other spaces into public places that are culturally engaging and diverse, and that respond to the city’s intrinsic physical character. Much of this change is attributable to the City’s strong strategic direction in planning and design since the mid 1980s. From this period, a vigorous pace of reform commenced through collaboration and joint initiatives between the State Government and the City of Melbourne. This has seen the consistent application of a range of urban design strategies and individual initiatives of varying scales. It has focused on achievable actions, and aimed at reinforcing the existing qualities of the city. In economic terms, the result has been a reversal of the long downward trend in CBD commercial activity and employment of previous decades. This has been supported by rediscovery of the city as a centre of culture and entertainment, a haven for small creative businesses, and a great place to live and learn.
