Sydney Travel Choices Sydney Travel Choices Travel Demand Management: Facilitating positive travel behaviour change Travel Demand Management… …is the application of a focused, data–led strategy to change demand on transport networks by redistributing journeys to other modes, times and routes – or taking demand off the network altogether. Travel Demand Management - Integrated approach Capacity creation Network management Behaviour change Sydney: The Challenge 4 Sydney: The Solution 11 The Challenge Sydney’s infrastructure is challenged by significant population growth and increasing land pressures. The Solution: The Tomorrow’s Sydney programme is preparing the city for this large- scale change through planning and investments to improve transport Travel Choices infrastructure. The first stage includes the construction of a new Light Rail Transit that requires the closure of a one of the major roads in the CBD and thus re-routing of its traffic. Travel Choices Travel Choices is a travel demand management (TDM) behaviour change project that seeks to influence customers’ travel behaviours in order to manage disruption to the transport network and achieve sustainable long-term changes in travel behaviour. It is designed to communicate transport network changes for people living, working and visiting in Sydney. The tailored engagement programme, enables businesses and commuters to plan alternate journeys across the city. The programme aims to relieve pressure spots throughout Sydney’s transport networks and encourage more active and sustainable approaches to travel in the CBD by promoting greener transport modes. The objective is to reduce car driving within the CBD to a level that allows the network to continue to operate to at least as well as prior to construction.

  • Local Government Responses to Urban Consolidation Policy: Meeting Housing Targets in Northern Sydney
    Local Government Responses to Urban Consolidation Policy: Meeting Housing Targets in Northern Sydney THESIS PROJECT Planning and Urban Development Program The Faculty of the Built Environment University of New South Wales Lauren Baroukh 3158821 - i - ABSTRACT Urban consolidation is the central housing policy guiding future residential development in the existing urban areas of Sydney. In accordance with the Sydney Metropolitan Strategy and subsequently elaborated in various Subregional Strategies, councils are required to achieve housing targets and accommodate higher density housing within their Local Government Areas. This thesis examines how councils are implementing these targets and achieving the urban consolidation objectives defined within strategic planning documents. It provides an analysis of council responses, primarily through the rezoning of land within revised Local Environmental Plans and local housing strategies. The thesis examines the factors which councils consider when selecting sites for higher density housing, such as proximity to town centres and public transport, the capacity of existing infrastructure and services, preserving the character of low density areas and determining appropriate building heights. The research indicates that councils are beginning to implement the housing targets and achieving many of the objectives suggested within the Sydney Metropolitan Strategy. In particular, the thesis identifies the issue of infrastructure provision as requiring further consideration by councils and state agencies. Higher density housing within existing urban areas needs to be appropriately located and planned in a way that responds to the unique characteristics of the locality. - ii - ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Special thanks go to Christine Steinmetz for her valuable advice, guidance and support which is much appreciated. I would also like to thank the interviewees for their time and insights which have made a valuable contribution to this project.

  • Case Study: Northern Sydney Community Recyling Centre
    Case Study: Northern Sydney community recyling centre COUNCIL NAME Overview Northern Sydney Regional Organisation Five councils in northern Sydney have partnered to establish a Community Recycling Centre of Councils (NSROC) (CRC) on commercial premises. No council had available operational land suitable to establish WEB ADDRESS a facility, so Northern Sydney Regional Organisation of Councils arranged a lease of a suitable www.nsroc.com.au commercial premises. Working together has allowed resource sharing between councils, increased the efficiency of problem waste collection and helps to reduce the illegal dumping of problem wastes. Background Northern Sydney Regional Waste Strategy aims to manage problem wastes through establishing three CRCs in the region by 2021. Hornsby Shire Council is setting up a CRC at the northern end of the region. Another site was sought to cater for residents on the lower north shore. Artarmon was considered suitable as it is centrally located and the zoning permits waste facilities. Four councils were already supporting Chemical Clean Out events in conjunction with the EPA, and the events were increasing in popularity. The one council which no longer ran such events was regularly asked by residents to restore the service. The key objective of this project was to provide accessible and affordable problem waste disposal facilities for the region. Implementation A governance framework provided a transparent process which enabled the five partner councils and NSROC to work collectively to set the project objectives and oversee implementation. A Deed of Agreement was established to clarify each partner's responsibilities and roles. Signing the deed demonstrated each party's acceptance of its obligations and ensured that each partner could budget for its own resource contributions in the knowledge that the remaining funds were guaranteed.

    Harrison Precinct Minutes of Meeting held on Thursday, 5 August 2021 at 7pm by ZOOM Attendance 16 attendees. Apologies: PK, GD. Welcome to A group of Holt Avenue residents from the Mosman Council side Mosman Residents were welcomed to the meeting. The residents attended with the view to collectively discussing solutions to the vehicle and pedestrian safety problems at the intersection of Spofforth Street and Holt Avenue. All were welcomed. As this was the only item of the agenda of interest to the Mosman residents, it was decided to deal with this agenda item first. Holt Avenue and The Mosman attendees were advised that Precinct Minutes were Spofforth Street routinely sent to North Sydney Council (NSC) post meeting. Intersection Improvements Discussion commenced with a review of crash data for the Holt Avenue/Spofforth Street intersection which had been collated by Harrison Precinct since 2018. Actions to date in relation to Harrison Precinct, local residents and the Traffic Committees of both Councils were also reviewed. It was noted that a Harrison Precinct member had attended the June 2021 NSC traffic committee meeting due to concern that the Traffic Committee was proposing to defer any action on the intersection improvements for six months. From discussions it was noted that: ● All residents are concerned about the unsafe nature of the intersection and would like a solution to improve safety for motorists and pedestrians. ● The two councils (Mosman and North Sydney) had offered a different set of solutions for the intersection. ● Mosman Council (MC) had pre-determined that it would not offer or agree to a roundabout as a solution.
