  • Integrated Transport Plan
    Integrated Transport Plan Background Paper i Background Paper January 2017 This background paper was compiled by Hobsons Bay City Council. For further information contact Council on 9932 1000 or at www.hobsonsbay.vic.gov.au Council acknowledges all language groups of the Kulin Nation as the traditional owners of these municipal lands. We recognise the first people’s relationship to this land and offer our respect to their elders past and present. Council also acknowledges the legal responsibility to comply with the Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities Act 2006 and the Equal Opportunity Act 2010. ii Executive summary The purpose of this background paper is to present an evidence base to inform future integrated transport planning in Hobsons Bay. Background Council released the Hobsons Bay Integrated Transport Strategy in 2006. More recently, consultation has identified ‘access to transport’ as an ongoing issue, particularly in neighbourhoods with limited transport options and high car dependency. In response to these concerns, Council committed to commence the development of an Integrated Transport Plan in 2014, with the first step being to develop a background paper. This background paper reinforces the need for long term strategic planning to coordinate Hobsons Bay’s interrelated transport modes into an integrated system. This ‘network approach’ is underpinned by a sustainable transport hierarchy that prioritises active, public and freight transport, while encouraging reduced private car use.

  • Transport and Access
    BAYSIDE PLANNING SCHEME 21.09 TRANSPORT AND ACCESS 09/05/2013 C100 Proposed This Clause provides local content to support Clause 18 (Transport) of the State Planning C124 Policy Framework. Overview Bayside is serviced by rail, a tram and buses; however there are large areas of the municipality which rely principally on the private motor vehicle for transport. The eastern boundary of the municipality is well serviced by the Frankston railway line, which has stations at Moorabbin (within Kingston City Council), Highett and Cheltenham. The State Government is currently progressing the establishment of a train station adjacent to the Southland Shopping Centre, an Activity Centre and area identified to support growth. The Sandringham railway line also dissects the northern and central sections of the municipality with stations at Elsternwick (within Glen Eira), Gardenvale, North Brighton, Middle Brighton, Brighton Beach, Hampton and Sandringham. This service does not extend to Black Rock and Beaumaris and these areas rely solely on bus services. Trams are restricted to a single route in Brighton East running along Hawthorn Road, terminating at the Nepean Highway. Bus services are provided throughout the municipality. The Nepean Highway is the major arterial road linking the municipality to the Melbourne CBD to the north and the south eastern suburbs and Mornington Peninsula to the south. There are also a number of primary and secondary arterial roads including Beach Road, North Road, South Road, Centre Road, Bluff Road and Balcombe Road which traverse the municipality. Bayside is serviced by the Sandringham and Frankston railway lines with a total of 9 stations, in addition there are 15 bus routes linking major shopping centres, Monash University, Central Melbourne and other suburbs.

  • Australasian Railway Association Skills Capabilty Study
    AUSTRALASIAN RAILWAY ASSOCIATION SKILLS CAPABILTY STUDY SKILLS CRISIS: A CALL TO ACTION NOVEMBER 2018 FOREWORD We are living through a renaissance of investment in rail. Projects such as Cross River Rail in Brisbane, Inland Rail, Sydney and Melbourne Metros, the Level Crossing Replacement Program, the Metronet project in Perth, rail extensions in South Australia, expansion of rail lines in the Pilbara, and numerous light rail projects in cities across the country, are heralding this renaissance. New Zealand too, is experiencing a deepening focus on rail. But this hasn’t always been the case. Rail investment stagnation, stop-start funding cycles and short term cost cutting have been a feature of the Australian rail sector since the 1980s. And one of the consequences has been the collapse in investment in training and skills development of the people to build our infrastructure and to operate and maintain first class rail services. This is a clear case of market failure. ARA commissioned this Report to undertake a workforce capability analysis based on planned and forecast rail infrastructure development in Australia and New Zealand over the next 10 years, with implications for a range of rail industry skills across construction, manufacturing, operations and maintenance. And to determine strategies to address them. The term supply and demand is well understood in the marketplace. However, as to rail skills in the current investment environment, it is a case of ‘demand and no supply.’ This is the crisis that this Report seeks to address. We welcome the massive investment in all aspects of rail now underway. This is crucial for our economic growth and improving amenity in our cities and regions.
