Road Space Allocation ROAD SPACE ALLOCATION: THE INTERSECTION OF TRANSPORT PLANNING, GOVERNANCE AND INFRASTRUCTURE Ian Henning Jones BA (Planning, Public Policy & Management) University of Oregon Masters (Urban & Regional Planning) University of California, Irvine Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Global, Urban and Social Studies College of Design and Social Context RMIT University November 2014 Abstract Contemporary professional transport planning and policy continue to focus on resolving the car’s place in contemporary urban society. Transport planners really only have two viable alternatives when engaging car-specific concerns: constructing more road space or allocating existing road space to give specific modes priority and/or to reduce travel. The second alternative drives the research programme for this thesis. For reasons made clear in this thesis, turning to transport-specific bodies of scholarly literature fails to provide a useful starting point to understand road space allocation. This research is therefore situated within a ‘mobilities paradigm’ (Urry, 2008). The mobilities paradigm provides a heterogeneous view of the world in which to view what is referred in this thesis as the scientific world of transport planning. This opens up useful exploratory lines of inquiry to understand the ways in which the work of transport planners (i.e. animate) allocating road space (i.e. inanimate) is constrained and constituted. This helps reveal limitations of governance, policy frameworks and professional knowledge in allocating road space. Insight from the sociology of scientific knowledge is used to analyse road space allocation from historical and contemporary settings, and to incorporate materiality into analysis. Utilising a case study methodology, this study critically examines road space allocation in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Data is drawn upon from a critical examination of scholarly literature, a document analysis of archival materials and government policy and legislative materials, face-to-face interviews with over 60 practicing and retired transport planners and participant observation of a transport planning exercise. The findings of this research suggest that though traditional aspects such as politics and legislative mandate do constrain and limit the action and reach of professionals, professionals were found to make and enact normative decisions that resulted in re- imagining road space as more than the site of car travel. Resolving several tensions identified in the thesis which make allocating road space challenging resulted in professionals embodying knowledge and experience reflective of adopting a demand management stance. This stance continues to be advanced by scholars as crucial to destabilising the car’s place in contemporary urban society. However, momentum needed to entrench the demand stance at institutional levels is found to be constrained by cyclical and/or alternating mobility visions generated from constant change in state government in Victoria. Drawing insight from sociology of scientific knowledge has therefore been found to provide for a new and enhanced frame to look at issues related to transport planning, road space allocation and the role of different agents (e.g. actors and infrastructure). Developing new professional knowledge and practices critical to engraining a demand management stance in practice is shown to be informed and enacted through practitioners actively engaging, and/or reacting to and against, technology and infrastructure. This confirms and reinforces the usefulness of tracing the contours of materiality, and in so doing, provides for an improved and more realistic picture of professional transport planning practice. Findings drawn from this thesis therefore advance our current understanding of how professional transport planning practice is constrained and constituted. - ii - Table of Contents ABSTRACT II TABLE OF CONTENTS III LIST OF FIGURES V LIST OF TABLES VII ABBREVIATIONS VIII DECLARATION IX ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS X CHAPTER 1 – INTRODUCTION 1 1.1 Background to research 1 1.2 Questioning the car’s role in urban society 3 1.3 The mobilities paradigm 7 1.4 Road space allocation 9 1.5 Scope and significance 12 1.6 Research question 15 1.7 Thesis structure and summary 16 CHAPTER 2 – ELEMENTS OF ROAD SPACE ALLOCATION 19 2.1 Repositioning the urban infrastructure debate 20 2.2 The constitutive elements of road space allocation 36 2.3 Road space allocation tensions 38 2.4 A conceptual framework to examine road space allocation 51 CHAPTER 3 – RESEARCH DESIGN 60 3.1 Methodology 61 3.2 Document analysis 67 3.3 Interviews 69 3.4 Participant observation 78 3.5 Synthesising research design 80 CHAPTER 4 – GOVERNANCE OF ROAD SPACE ALLOCATION 82 4.1 Placing Melbourne in context 83 4.2 Tracing the boundaries for road space allocation 84 4.3 Chapter summary 94 CHAPTER 5 – EXPLORING CONTESTS OVER USE OF ROAD SPACE 97 5.1 Pre-motor car resolution of the spatial tension 98 5.2 On-street car parking and the spatial tension 103 5.3 Chapter summary 126 CHAPTER 6 – ROAD SPACE ALLOCATION AND INFRASTRUCTURE 128 6.1 How governance helps reconcile the capacity tension 129 6.2 How organisational conventions help reconcile the capacity tension 138 6.3 Exploring the role of materiality in the capacity tension 148 6.4 Chapter summary 153 CHAPTER 7 – HIERARCHICAL ARRANGEMENT OF ROAD SPACE 156 7.1 Exploring the role of governance in reconciling the liveability tension 157 -

  • Dear Secretary Salazar: I Strongly
    Dear Secretary Salazar: I strongly oppose the Bush administration's illegal and illogical regulations under Section 4(d) and Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act, which reduce protections to polar bears and create an exemption for greenhouse gas emissions. I request that you revoke these regulations immediately, within the 60-day window provided by Congress for their removal. The Endangered Species Act has a proven track record of success at reducing all threats to species, and it makes absolutely no sense, scientifically or legally, to exempt greenhouse gas emissions -- the number-one threat to the polar bear -- from this successful system. I urge you to take this critically important step in restoring scientific integrity at the Department of Interior by rescinding both of Bush's illegal regulations reducing protections to polar bears.

  • Water Politics in Victoria: the Impact of Legislative Design, Policy
    Water Politics in Victoria The impact of legislative design, policy objectives and institutional constraints on rural water supply governance Benjamin David Rankin Thesis submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Swinburne Institute for Social Research Faculty of Health, Arts and Design Swinburne University of Technology 2017 i Abstract This thesis explores rural water supply governance in Victoria from its beginnings in the efforts of legislators during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries to shape social and economic outcomes by legislative design and maximise developmental objectives in accordance with social liberal perspectives on national development. The thesis is focused on examining the development of Victorian water governance through an institutional lens with an intention to explain how the origins of complex legislative and administrative structures later come to constrain the governance of a policy domain (water supply). Centrally, the argument is concentrated on how the institutional structure comprising rural water supply governance encouraged future water supply endeavours that reinforced the primary objective of irrigated development at the expense of alternate policy trajectories. The foundations of Victoria’s water legislation were initially formulated during the mid-1880s and into the 1890s under the leadership of Alfred Deakin, and again through the efforts of George Swinburne in the decade following federation. Both regarded the introduction of water resources legislation as fundamentally important to ongoing national development, reflecting late nineteenth century colonial perspectives of state initiated assistance to produce social and economic outcomes. The objectives incorporated primarily within the Irrigation Act (1886) and later Water Acts later become integral features of water governance in Victoria, exerting considerable influence over water supply decision making.

Back endpaper: Audit Office staff, 2001. iii Foreword he year 2001 assumed much significance for the Victorian Auditor-General’s Office as Tit marked the 150th anniversary of the appointment in July 1851 of the first Victorian Auditor-General, Charles Hotson Ebden. In commemoration of this major occasion, we decided to commission a history of the 150 years of the Office and appointed Dr Peter Yule, to carry out this task. The product of the work of Peter Yule is a highly informative account of the Office over the 150 year period. Peter has skilfully analysed the personalities and key events that have characterised the functioning of the Office and indeed much of the Victorian public sector over the years. His book will be fascinating reading to anyone interested in the development of public accountability in this State and of the forces of change that have progressively impacted on the powers and responsibilities of Auditors-General. Peter Yule was ably assisted by Geoff Burrows (Associate Professor in Accounting, University of Melbourne) who, together with Graham Hamilton (former Deputy Auditor- General), provided quality external advice during the course of the project.
