Will the $50B Suburban Rail Loop Shape the Melbourne We Want?

SGS Economics and Planning Pty Ltd ACN 007 437 729 www.sgsep.com.au Offices in Canberra, Hobart, Melbourne, Sydney 01 INTRODUCTION WILL THE $50 BILLION PROPOSED SUBURBAN RAIL LOOP HELP SHAPE THE MELBOURNE WE WANT? In late August 2018, Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews proposed a $50 billion suburban rail loop connecting all major rail lines from east to west via Melbourne Airport. Due for completion in 2050, theSuburban Rail Loop will connect every major Melbourne railway line – proposed stops include Werribee, Sunshine, Melbourne Airport, Broadmeadows, Fawkner, Reservoir, Bundoora, Heidelberg, Doncaster, Box Hill, Burwood, Glen Waverley, Monash, Clayton and Cheltenham. Heralded as the biggest public transport project in Australian history by the state government, the massive project aims to respond to Melbourne’s groaning road and rail system and will potentially be the most extensive rail system in Australian history. The first round of strategic planning for the Suburban Rail Loop was put together by Development Victoria with detailed engineering plans and a business case yet to be completed. In this article, we explore what makes a city-shaping project and whether the suburban rail loop has the potential to transform Melbourne into the city we want. -
One of the Boys: the (Gendered) Performance of My Football Career
One of the Boys: The (Gendered) Performance of My Football Career Ms. Kasey Symons PhD Candidate 2019 The Institute for Sustainable Industries and Liveable Cities (ISILC), Victoria University, Australia. Thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Abstract: This PhD via creative work comprises an exegesis (30%) and accompanying novel, Fan Fatale (70%), which seek to contribute a creative and considered representation of some women who are fans of elite male sports, Australian Rules football in particular. Fictional representations of Australian Rules football are rare. At the time of submission of this thesis, only three such works were found that are written by women aimed to an older readership. This project adds to this underrepresented space for women writing on, and contributing their experiences to, the culture of men’s football. The exegesis and novel creatively addresses the research question of how female fans relate to other women in the sports fan space through concepts of gender bias, performance, and social surveillance. Applying the lens of autoethnography as the primary methodology to examine these notions further allows a deeper, reflexive engagement with the research, to explore how damaging these performances can be for the relationships women can have to other women. In producing this exegesis and accompanying novel, this PhD thesis contributes a new and creative way to explore the gendered complications that surround the sports fan space for women. My novel, Fan Fatale, provides a narrative which raises questions about the complicit positions women can sometimes occupy in the name of fandom and conformity to expected gendered norms. -

Review of Strategic Direction
Strategic Context MGS Architects | TQ Planning | 2Movement & Place Consulting | SGS Economics & Planning | 12 2.1 Overview 2.1.1 Location The Wurundjeri– Balluk Tribe are the traditional custodians of the land on which Box Hill is located. The tribe, whose traditional language is Woi Wurrung, is one of the five tribes that make up the Kulin nation. The tribe has historical links with the wider area now known as the City of Whitehorse extending over 40,000 years. Whitehorse City Council respectfully acknowledges the Traditional owners of the land which is now called Whitehorse, the Wurundjeri people and their elders past and present. Box Hill is located approximately 14km east of Melbourne’s Central Business District (CBD). Box Hill is located in what is considered Melbourne’s ‘middle ring’ with a gateway role in connecting the outer region with inner Melbourne. The centre is located at an important location on the Lilydale and Belgrave rail line, Whitehorse Road and at the terminus of the 109 tram route. Box Hill’s origins are completely dependent on transport and it being a focal point for economic activity and transfer of goods and services. This role has strengthened over time, though been less relevant over the last 50 years of automobile dependence. As traffic congestion increases we are now at a tipping point where Box Hill’s locational strengths could again be a key driver of growth. Box Hill has consistently been considered a strategic centre in Melbourne metropolitan planning policy since its designation as a District Business Centre in the 1954 Metropolitan Planning Scheme, see Figure 2.1. -
The Suburban Rail Loop: 50 Billion Reasons Why (Or Why Not)?
Presentation to VPELA Seminar 05/03/2019 The Suburban Rail Loop: 50 Billion Reasons Why (or Why Not)? Peter Tesdorpf - Rail Futures Institute 1 What is Rail Futures? Rail Futures Institute is an independent non-partisan group. Formed to advocate cost-effective rail and intermodal solutions for public transport and freight problems based on sound commercial, economic and social reasoning. Rail Futures members include experienced rail professionals, engineers, urban planners and economists. 2 Successful Outcomes • InterCity Regional Rail Plan - blueprint for Victorian regional rail to 2040. • Government announcements to date for airport rail align substantially with RFI’s AIRTRAIN proposal. • Government’s Western Rail Plan, Ballarat, Gippsland and other line upgrades align well with RFI recommendations. • Many RFI InterCity proposals reflected in Victorian Coalition regional rail policy. 3 4 5 6 7 WHY WE NEED THE MELBOURNE RAIL PLAN • Unprecedented population growth not seen since the 1850s Gold Rush. • Highest growth rate of Western cities. • Rapid urban densification occurring in inner and middle suburbs • Extensive outer urban growth areas lacking high quality public transport • Melbourne facing a transport crisis – roads, trains, trams near capacity • Car dependency levels becoming unsustainable • Our trams among the world’s slowest – operating well below their potential • We have a land use plan but no transport plan – as mandated by the Transport Integration Act. 8 Growth has outpaced transport network (1) Original radial train and tram network has not kept pace with Melbourne’s growth…..started falling behind from the late 1950s. The network was good for a city of 2-3 million, but not for now and the future, as these figures illustrate: • 88% of the area and 92% of the population of Melbourne’s inner area (where there is a partial grid network) is covered by high capacity (rail) public transport. -
