    Draft Ipswich Planning Scheme 2019 Statement of Proposals 3.7 Local Area Frameworks 3.7.1 Preliminary (1) The Ipswich Local Government Area has been divided into thirty local area strategic planning units based on geographically identifiable communities of interest (areas with identifiable boundaries and within which there are broad land use and planning commonalities) to which individual Local Area Frameworks apply. (2) The thirty Local Area Frameworks provide a more detailed spatial expression of the policies included in the Whole of City Strategic Framework (refer to sections 3.1 to 3.6) for each of the local area strategic planning units by: (a) including a description of the geographic extent of the strategic planning unit to which the Local Area Framework applies; (b) identifying the Valuable Features in the area that are of significance and are to be protected; (c) identifying the most significant Development Constraints that impact on development in the area and that need to be considered and addressed in allocating precincts and for development assessment; (d) setting out the Growth Management outcomes that are to be delivered in the area; (e) identifying the key Infrastructure that needs to be delivered to support growth and development in the area; (f) showing the preferred use of land in the area by including each property in a land use precinct designation; and (g) where there are different development options (including for example building heights, lot sizes, dwelling densities or different land uses) for an area or individual

  • Connecting SEQ 2031 an Integrated Regional Transport Plan for South East Queensland
    Connecting SEQ 2031 An Integrated Regional Transport Plan for South East Queensland Tomorrow’s Queensland: strong, green, smart, healthy and fair Queensland AUSTRALIA south-east Queensland 1 Foreword Vision for a sustainable transport system As south-east Queensland's population continues to grow, we need a transport system that will foster our economic prosperity, sustainability and quality of life into the future. It is clear that road traffic cannot continue to grow at current rates without significant environmental and economic impacts on our communities. Connecting SEQ 2031 – An Integrated Regional Transport Plan for South East Queensland is the Queensland Government's vision for meeting the transport challenge over the next 20 years. Its purpose is to provide a coherent guide to all levels of government in making transport policy and investment decisions. Land use planning and transport planning go hand in hand, so Connecting SEQ 2031 is designed to work in partnership with the South East Queensland Regional Plan 2009–2031 and the Queensland Government's new Queensland Infrastructure Plan. By planning for and managing growth within the existing urban footprint, we can create higher density communities and move people around more easily – whether by car, bus, train, ferry or by walking and cycling. To achieve this, our travel patterns need to fundamentally change by: • doubling the share of active transport (such as walking and cycling) from 10% to 20% of all trips • doubling the share of public transport from 7% to 14% of all trips • reducing the share of trips taken in private motor vehicles from 83% to 66%.

The research has been funded by the CIBE project under the CRC for Construction Innovation. As a student and as a person I have always had a very broad interest, sometimes finding it difficult to make choices. In the thesis this part of my personality is reflected in the broad focus on infrastructure. Of course writing a thesis without making choices is impossible; one would end up with an encyclopedia. The choices I have made for my thesis, from delineating the scope of the project, to specifying the important concepts from the thesis and the people to interview, have coincided with important choices on where I want to take my life in the future.

  • Transport Justice in the Suburbs: Leveraging Social Capital to Reduce Transport Disadvantage
    Transport Justice in the Suburbs: Leveraging social capital to reduce transport disadvantage Laurel Marie Johnson Master of Built Environment (City and Regional Planning) QUT https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9928-0246 A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2020 School of Earth and Environmental Sciences i Transport Justice in the Suburbs, 2020 Abstract Transport infrastructure and transport services are vital to a city’s function. Transport connects citizens with employment, goods, services and each other. Despite this shared understanding of the central role of transport in urban life, for some city residents, the cost, availability, reliability, convenience and/or quality of transport constrains their access to the city’s assets. These individuals experience transport disadvantage. Transport disadvantage is strongly associated with locational and social disadvantage, though causality is complex. In this study I use a longitudinal research method to investigate transport disadvantage at a single urban location. The purpose of the research is to understand the factors that reduce transport disadvantage. The research method is qualitatively-dominant mixed methods and the theoretical interest is the roles of social capital in reducing transport disadvantage. The investigation presents policy, theoretical and methodological findings and recommendations. The research highlights a model of governance that delivered new transport infrastructure and services designed by residents in a transport- disadvantaged place. A significant policy recommendation is that linking social capital in the form of authentic power with and enduring local governance arrangements in transport disadvantaged places can be potent in reducing transport disadvantage. Theoretical recommendations include expanding social capital theory to inquire into the role of kindness in enabling mobility in transport disadvantaged places and extending transport poverty theory to consider locational disadvantage as a factor in transport poverty.

Thanks! Answer Count Percentage Answer 144 50.17% No answer 110 38.33% Not completed or Not displayed 33 11.50% ID Response 927 1. Queensland Rail should be privatised by worldwide Expression of Interest and then competitive contracting. Nobody has explained why $1.8 billion of taxpayer money is just handed to this operator and its contract renewed, come what may. There are now plenty of private operators that could run the SEQ rail network like Metro Trains, Deutsche Bahn, Keolis etc. The current model is NOT working, because the minister keeps renewing the QR contract no matter what! Private contractors already run buses, ferries and light rail in Queensland, so this is not new at all. People need to ride the privatised CityCat or privatised Gold Coast Light Rail that we have already have to see that their fears that this will trigger the apocalypse are unfounded. 2. Brisbane City Council needs to review the ENTIRE BCC bus network. Many suburbs could get BUZ frequency buses from the simple amalgamation of existing bus routes, with little or no new expense or infrastructure. Usually after BUZ upgrades the patronage doubles. The current administration should realise this and do it because their political opponents are already on to this, and already came out with plans last BCC elections for more BUZ routes.
