    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Source: - TRANSIT AUSTRALIA - February 2004, Vol. 59, No. 2 p41 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ People for Public Transport Conference – October 2003 'Missed Opportunities - New Possibilities' in Adelaide 1. Overview Adelaide's transport action group People for Public Transport held its annual conference 'Missed Opportunities - New Possibilities' on Saturday 25 October 2003 at Balyana Conference Centre, Clapham, attracting some notable speakers and considerable interest. The next three pages present a brief overview of the event and highlights of the speakers' comments. The keynote speaker was Dr Paul Mees, a well known public transport advocate from Melbourne, where he teaches transport and land use planning in the urban planning program at the University of Melbourne. He was President of the Public Transport Users Association (Vic) from 1992 to 2001. (See separate panel page 42.) Dr Alan Perkins talked about the benefits of making railway stations centres for the community, with commercial and medium density housing clustered around the stations and noted places where this had not happened. He stressed the importance of urban design and security at stations. Dr Perkins' work has focused on the nexus of urban planning, transport, greenhouse impacts and sustainability, through research and policy development. He is Senior Transport Policy Analyst with the SA Department of Transport and Urban Planning. See below. Mr Roy Arnold, General Manager of TransAdelaide' talked about his vision for the future of Adelaide's suburban rail, including the new trams, to be introduced in 2005. This is summarised on page 42. Mr Nell Smith, General Manager of Swan Transit (Perth) and a director of Torrens Transit in Adelaide, has been deeply involved in the service reviews that have led to the reversal of long term patronage decline in both cities.

  • Re-Imagining Adelaide's Public Transport by Andrew Leunig 28 August 2013
    Re-imagining Adelaide's Public Transport By Andrew Leunig 28 August 2013 With some further notes as at 20 March 2015 (at rear) Re-imagining Adelaide's Public Transport Exec Summary I believe that Adelaide could be the most livable and most learning City on the Planet. The “most liveable” city in the world will get the balance between Public and Private transport right. It will be “liveable” for the old and the young, the rich and the poor. Why couldn't Adelaide have the cleverest, most vibrant public transport system for a town of it's size on the planet ? No Reason at all. But we have to want it first. At the moment our Public Transport mode share (9.9%) is about the lowest in Australia and that is our accepted norm. Even our state plan is soft and timid. “Increase the use of public transport to 10% of metropolitan weekday passenger vehicle kilometres travelled by 2018”. I like the old saying "If you shoot for the stars you might not get there ­ but you are less likely to come up with fists full of mud". At the moment our state plan shoots for the mud. The solution ? We need to re­imagine our network design. As recommended by leading experts we should toss out our current hub (city) and spoke design and design our Network around the very layout that Adelaide is globally famous for ­ our grid. I propose that we create The Adelaide Metro Grid ­ with buses running frequently in a straight line along our major roads, where transfers are presumed and every major intersection becomes a transfer point.

The Committee extends its thanks for the effort made by those involved in preparing and presenting evidence to the Committee. It provided the Committee members with a better understanding of Public Transport in South Australia, and highlighted some of the key issues facing our state. The Committee thanks the research team; Professor Michael A P Taylor, Professor Derek Scrafton and Dr Nicholas Holyoak, Institute for Sustainable Systems and Technologies, University of South Australia whose work, research and collation of information ensures that the report will be of great value to individuals and organisations concerned with transport in SA.

  • Our Plan Our Plan
    OUR PLAN OUR PLAN TRANSPORT NETWORKS THAT CONNECT PEOPLE TO PLACES AND BUSINESSES TO MARKETS For inner and middle Adelaide • A sharper focus on inner Adelaide to boost the central city as a creative, lively and energetic area where more people want to live and businesses want to locate. • Making bold choices − bringing a network of trams back to Adelaide, called AdeLINK and refocusing our transport system to support and actively encourage mixed-use medium density, vibrant communities and business growth in inner and middle urban areas. For Greater Adelaide • An increasing focus on major urban centres and accessibility to these centres − building upon the electrification of the north-south backbone of the public transport system, a modernised and redesigned bus network with a focus on major activity centres, and supporting a more active city through better connected walking and cycling networks and walkable environments. • Giving businesses the efficient, reliable transport connections they need to deliver goods and services around the city and to interstate and international markets − a well-targeted package of investment in the North-South Corridor, Inner and Outer Ring Routes and intersection and road upgrades. For regional and remote South Australia • Better connecting regional towns and communities to jobs, services and opportunities − focusing on a high quality, well maintained road network and improving community and passenger transport services. • Managing the growing volumes of freight moving around the state and making sure the mining sector has the transport connections it needs to expand. 40 OUR PLAN 3.1 OUR PLAN FOR INNER AND MIDDLE ADELAIDE Liveability is one of Adelaide’s greatest assets.
