A desire for an extension of Tram Route 112 has been an issue for the community for many years. Darebin City Council has advocated on the issue for decades. A survey was undertaken to gauge community attitudes towards the extension of Tram Route 112 along Gilbert Rd and Edwardes St to Reservoir Station. The survey explored the frequency of intended travel, most important benefits of the project, willingness to replace car with tram travel and preferred form of public transport. This report summarises the findings from the survey. Methodology The survey was distributed to 8200 households using Council’s delivery system with prepaid return options. The sample was drawn from GIS and delivered within a 800m boundary around the proposed route (Map appendix 1). The questionnaire had information about the proposal, 8 questions and a demographic section (Survey questionnaire appendix 2) In total 1714 hard copy surveys were returned and a further 168 were completed on line. The total number of surveys completed was 1884 providing an unusually high response rate of 23% 3 Demographics Age The analysis of the age groups of people participating in the survey shows that people aged under 35 are under represented people in the aged 46 and over are over represented. This survey was distributed to households and younger people are commonly under represented in surveys of this nature. Which one of the following age groups do you belong to? No Percent under 18 18 1.0 18 - 35 years 339 18.6 36 - 45 years 355 19.5 46 - 60 years 452 24.8 61 - 75 years 380 20.9 76 years or more 275 15.1 Total 1819 100.0 Missing 65 1884 Age groups 30.0 24.8 25.0 20.9 19.5 20.0 18.6 15.1 15.0 Percent 10.0 5.0 1.0 0.0 under 18 18 - 35 years 36 - 45 years 46 - 60 years 61 - 75 years 76 years or more 4 Gender The survey had a greater proportion of females than males, also a common finding in most self select surveys. What is your gender? No Percent Male 780 43.5 Female 1015 56.5 Total 1795 100.0 Missing 89 1884 Gender 60.0 56.5 50.0 43.5 40.0 30.0 Percent 20.0 10.0 0.0 Male Female 5 Disadvantage Around 45% of respondents said they had a healthcare card. This finding is likely to include respondents with Pension Cards and possibly also Senior Card. Do you have a healthcare card? No Percent Yes 762 42.3 No 1020 56.6 Unsure 20 1.1 Total 1802 100.0 Missing 82 1884 Healthcare Card 60.0 56.6 50.0 42.3 40.0 30.0 Percent 20.0 10.0 0.0 Yes No 6 Diversity Corresponding with the 2006 census of Darebin residents 40% of the respondents spoke a language other than English at home. Do you speak a language other than English at home? No Percent English only 1090 60.0 Other language: 728 40.0 Total 1818 100.0 Missing 66 1884 Language spoken at home 70.0 60.0 60.0 50.0 40.0 40.0 Percent 30.0 20.0 10.0 0.0 English only Other language: One percent (17) of the respondents identified as being from Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander background. Darebin has the second largest population of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents in Metropolitan Melbourne and the demographic make up of the survey respondents corresponds to the findings in the census. Are you of Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander background? No Percent Yes 17 1.0 No 1758 99.0 Total 1775 100.0 Missing 109 1884 7 Disability The survey showed that roughly 16% of the respondents identified as having a disability. The 2003 Ageing Disability and Carers survey reveal that roughly 20% of the Darebin Population has some form of disability. The understanding of “having a disability’ in this survey could mean a vast range of interpretations and poses some difficulty in portraying the respondents as a unique group. This must be kept in mind when the survey data is cross analysed with the groups of respondents who said that they had a disability. In short, the data includes analysis of the respondents loosely grouped around “having a disability’ but caution should be exercised in the interpretation of these results and trends that it may reveal. Do you have a disability? No Percent Yes 290 15.8 No 1544 84.2 Total 1834 100.0 Missing 50 1884 Do you have dependent children living at home? No Percent Yes 562 29.8 No 1276 67.7 Total 1838 97.6 Missing 46 2.4 1884 100.0 8 Findings Question 1: If the Tram 112 was extended along Gilbert Rd and Edwardes St to Reservoir Station, please indicate the benefits (if any) that it would bring to you personally. The results show that the most valuable benefits include “more frequent public transport” and “closer public transport options” which was selected by three quarters of the respondents. However, “connection to Edwardes St shops”, “faster access to the city”, “connection to the train” and “better access to local shopping” were also selected by more than half of the respondents. Analysis of the same set of responses, but broken down between respondents with and without Healthcare cards, over and under 60 years of age and by car ownership shows some differences. • Respondents with Healthcare cards value the better access to health services the tram extension would bring. • Respondents without a car particularly valued better access to health services and also valued more frequent public transport options and better access to local shops and Edwardes St shops. • Respondents with disabilities and respondents aged over 60 particularly identified the benefit of having better access to health services .People with disabilities also identified the benefit of increased access to local services, to the city and to the train.

Preface Preface The purpose of a Rail Accident Investigation Branch (RAIB) investigation is to improve railway safety by preventing future railway accidents or by mitigating their consequences. It is not the purpose of such an investigation to establish blame or liability. Accordingly, it is inappropriate that RAIB reports should be used to assign fault or blame, or determine liability, since neither the investigation nor the reporting process has been undertaken for that purpose. The RAIB’s findings are based on its own evaluation of the evidence that was available at the time of the investigation and are intended to explain what happened, and why, in a fair and unbiased manner.

  • A Study on Connectivity and Accessibility Between Tram Stops and Public Facilities: a Case Study in the Historic Cities of Europe
    Urban Street Design & Planning 73 A study on connectivity and accessibility between tram stops and public facilities: a case study in the historic cities of Europe Y. Kitao1 & K. Hirano2 1Kyoto Women’s University, Japan 2Kei Atelier, Yame, Fukuoka, Japan Abstract The purpose of this paper is to understand urban structures in terms of tram networks by using the examples of historic cities in Europe. We have incorporated the concept of interconnectivity and accessibility between public facilities and tram stops to examine how European cities, which have built world class public transportation systems, use the tram network in relationship to their public facilities. We selected western European tram-type cities which have a bus system, but no subway system, and we focused on 24 historic cities with populations from 100,000 to 200,000, which is the optimum size for a large-scale community. In order to analyze the relationship, we mapped the ‘pedestrian accessible area’ from any tram station in the city, and analyzed how many public facilities and pedestrian streets were in this area. As a result, we were able to compare the urban space structures of these cities in terms of the accessibility and connectivity between their tram stops and their public facilities. Thus we could understand the features which determined the relationship between urban space and urban facilities. This enabled us to evaluate which of our target cities was the most pedestrian orientated city. Finally, we were able to define five categories of tram-type cities. These findings have provided us with a means to recognize the urban space structure of a city, which will help us to improve city planning in Japan.

  • FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE the Disability Resources Centre
    DISABILITY RESOURCES CENTRE (INC.) 3rd Floor, Ross House 247 Flinders Lane MELBOURNE 3000 Ph. 9671 3000 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE The Disability Resources Centre welcomes Tram Stop Upgrades 9th May 2018 The DRC congratulates the Victorian Government on the announcement to upgrade the existing tram system, making it more accessible for people with disabilities. We are pleased that new island platforms will enable people with wheelchairs and mobility aids to travel independently to several Melbourne hospitals, cultural centres and places of education. The Disability Resources Centre (DRC) is a member-driven organisation that is managed and staffed by people with disabilities. We promote the rights of people with disabilities through individual and systemic advocacy. We are currently conducting an Accessible Public Transport project investigating the major transport issues faced by Victorians with disabilities. Throughout our consultation process we have recorded several examples of people with disabilities being unable to access essential services or popular destinations due to inaccessible trams. A mother living in a regional area shared that she regularly travels by train to Melbourne for hospital appointments with her son, yet there is no accessible public transport from the CBD train station to the hospital. She recalled being unable to exit the tram at the hospital, not knowing where the next accessible stop would be and whether she would arrive in time for the appointment, after travelling hours to get there. The new raised platforms will enable them to take the full journey from home to the hospital on public transport reducing the uncertainty, stress and cost they currently face.

  • Improving Disabled Access to the Tram System in Melbourne, Victoria
    GFS-0812 Improving Disabled Access to the Tram System in Melbourne, Victoria An Interactive Qualifying Project submitted to the Department of Infrastructure and the Faculty of Worcester Polytechnic Institute in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science by ____________________________________________ Alexander Christakis ____________________________________________ Katie Flynn ____________________________________________ Jennifer Himottu 28 April 2007 ____________________________________________ Professor Holly Ault, Advisor ____________________________________________ Professor Guillermo Salazar, Advisor This report represents the work of three WPI undergraduate students submitted to the faculty as evidence of completion of a degree requirement. WPI routinely publishes these reports on its web site without editorial or peer review. Abstract This project assisted the Department of Infrastructure of the Victorian government in improving the accessibility of the tram system for disabled passengers in Melbourne, Australia. A systematic rating system for assessing future stops to upgrade to conform to accessibility standards was proposed and applied to three target routes. Criteria were defined by reviewing the current state of accessibility and interviewing stakeholders. The proposed approach will help to effectively focus project effort and funding to critical areas in the future. ii Acknowledgements This project was a great undertaking and the first time WPI was able to work with the DOI of the state of Victoria. Therefore, we would like to thank the several people that helped and encouraged us throughout our project and made our stay in Melbourne even more enjoyable. We would first like to thank our project liaison Dr. Jim North, also known to us as ―Doctor‖, ―Professor‖, ―Gunslinger‖, ―The Scotsman‖ and ―Boss Jim.‖ He went above and beyond his duties as project liaison and drilled into our heads the idea of ―Scottish Rules.‖ All the information we needed, as long as we asked, we received.

  • MULTI-CRITERIA DECISION MAKING to SELECT the BEST MONORAIL ROUTE Dr
    [Abdulkareem, 5(5): May, 2018] ISSN 2349-4506 Impact Factor: 3.799 Global Journal of Engineering Science and Research Management MULTI-CRITERIA DECISION MAKING TO SELECT THE BEST MONORAIL ROUTE Dr. Imzaem Abdulkareem*, Dr. Ammar A. Shubber & Eng. Asseel Sabah Assist. Professor, Building and Construction Engineering Department, University of Technology, Baghdad, Iraq. Lecturer Doctor, Building and Construction Engineering Department, University of Technology, Baghdad, Iraq Engineer, Building and Construction Engineering Department, University of Technology, Baghdad, Iraq DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.1255758 KEYWORDS: tram route, best route selection, criteria weighting, multi criteria decision-making. ABSTRACT The primary goal of any route selection is to find the best one with adopted conditions that meet the predetermined selection criteria. Manipulating spatial data of multiple criteria using Geographic information system (GIS), GPS, and Civil 3D programs is presented in the paper. A case study in Baghdad City, in which the best tram route was chosen, was applied. Six alternative routes were proposed. A multi criteria decision-making (MCDM) methodology was adopted to decide the best alternative. The study proved that a GIS based system combined with (MCDM) techniques may be a suitable tool for transforming geographical data into a decision and can be applied in tramway route planning and design. INTRODUCTION Any public transportation infrastructure development project should begin with the recognition of an existing or projected need to meet the present and growing demand in the future. This problem will result in a series of actions, starting with searching out and screening geographic areas and specific locations. Routes that satisfy the screening criteria are subject to detailed evaluation [1].
