  • University of Southern Queensland Elevated
    University of Southern Queensland Faculty of Engineering and Surveying Elevated Highways – A Solution to Brisbane’s Traffic Congestion? A Dissertation submitted by Bruce Robert Delahunty in fulfillment of the requirements of Courses ENG4111 and ENG4112 Research Project Towards the degree of Bachelor Degree of Engineering (Civil) Submitted: October, 2011 Abstract The title “Elevated Highways – A Solution to Brisbane’s Traffic Congestion?” initially outlines the probable contents of the upcoming dissertation. Many cities around the world are experiencing worsening traffic chaos especially in peak hour travelling times. The construction of road tunnels, elevated highways, freeways and interchanges, bus ways, transit lanes, tollways and automated traffic systems are some of the methods that planners, engineers and governments have utilized to try to increase the capacity of the road infrastructure network to alleviate the congestion in peak hour traffic. Thus, the much debated topic of what infrastructure or road systems to construct in order to overcome the dreaded “peak hour rush” for any city reaching the capacity of their current road and transport network, is a never ending question and topic for today’s transport engineers, planners, governments, environmentalists and public to agree upon. I believe the answer lies within the creativity of the design engineers to conjure up new designs of infrastructure, with new materials, creativity and form that are environmentally acceptable and at a viable cost. Today’s transport planners and governments need to also implement acceptable systems of control to allow the traffic to flow as well as increase the capacity and use of public transportation systems. My aim for the upcoming thesis was to highlight another type of road infrastructure solution that is affordable and could be designed to alleviate the traffic congestion that is now evident on our roads in Brisbane, primarily in the peak travel times.

  • 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%.
