    DRAFT 59 Rail Futures Inc THE MELBOURNE RAIL PLAN Moving People in a City of 8 Million 25 May 2019 This paper has been prepared by Rail Futures Incorporated in the public interest. Rail Futures Inc 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, planners and economists. Melbourne Rail Plan 2019-2050, May 2019 Version 59 - DRAFT FOR COMMENT Rail Futures Institute 1 Foreword Melbourne once had one of the world’s best public transport systems. The forethought and planning of Victorians more than a century ago, and their capacity to value the welfare of Victorians of the future -us - as highly as their own, helped make Melbourne one of the world’s economically most productive and liveable cities. For the past few generations, myopia, carelessness and excessive valuation of the present over the future have been squandering that wonderful legacy. The economic and social life of this city will be deeply impaired by barriers to movement of people around the city unless chronic underinvestment over recent generations is remedied. The Melbourne Rail Plan 2019-50 demonstrates the way to correct the mistakes of recent generations, and that some contemporary Victorians are up to the challenge. The Report is comprehensive, creative and authoritative. It is an excellent foundation for rebuilding Melbourne to secure its position as one of the world’s most successful cities. Melbourne is growing more rapidly than any other large city in the developed world.

The document aims to complement the existing volumes of guidelines and build for industry direction on the expectations from VicRoads for a suitable investigation. The guideline outlines details within selected key topics, with an underlying focus on building an evidence based pursuit to develop a narrative for consideration from all stakeholders. The key areas discussed within this report include the following topics: Data collection, data types, cleansing and analysis Model development, including calibration and validation Model performance and reporting of conditions Scenario testing and options explorations In amongst the elements for consideration within this guideline, is a discussion about the three primary areas of model calibration, which includes the following topics: Demand considerations Behavioural considerations Network considerations A strong focus is provided on the differences between the terms of demand and throughput as an input to the model development. The core of developing a base model is to ensure that this simulation measures well to reflect the current conditions observed. This is also utilised as a platform to progress forward and consider changes in the network for either immediate effect or for change in a future horizon.
