Executive Summary The South East Transport Strategy (“the Strategy”) (see Attachment A) brings together a collective voice on regional transport issues for the 1.5 million strong community that will live and work in the South East over the next decade. The regional approach ensures the South East region can better plan and work towards projects and initiatives required for a world class connected transport network. A regional Transport Strategy is needed given the region is a major contributor to Victoria’s economy. The Strategy will provide a mechanism for the South East to advocate to the State and Federal Governments and plan key strategic transport priorities for the region over the next decade. The Strategy will bring numerous benefits to Casey and the region by boosting rail and road capacity to meet the transport challenge. This in turn will boost productivity, conserve energy, curb greenhouse gas emissions and improve the quality of life for residents by creating more liveable communities. Background The City of Casey is one of eight municipalities that make up the South East Melbourne Integrated Transport Group (SEMITG,) (“the Group”) and includes Bass Coast, Cardinia, Frankston, Greater Dandenong, Kingston, Mornington Peninsula and Yarra Ranges. The Group advocate for the delivery of regional transport projects and initiatives in Melbourne’s South East that aim to improve freight, transport efficiency, help grow and facilitate productivity, and better plan the region’s transport. The Group work in partnership with the influential organisations in regional transport planning on behalf of a future population of 1.5 million people that will call the South East home. This includes South East Melbourne Group (SEM), industry, State and Federal Governments and transport user groups Since the initial 2010 Regional Transport Strategy was developed, the Group has been involved in several regional transport achievements that have had a major impact on the South East. This has included but not limited to major upgrades to principal freight routes as well as delivery of key road arterials such as the Monash Freeway upgrade, construction of the Dingley Bypass, re-development of Frankston Station Precinct; Level Crossing Removals across the South East and completing missing links in existing recreational trails. Council Meeting Page 1 Officers’ Reports 2 October 2018 ITEM 6.1 Discussion The biggest issue impacting liveability in the City of Casey and for residents living in the South East is accessibility to a well-connected, efficient and reliable transport network. This includes transport options via private cars, freight, trains, buses, cycling and walking. Recognising the South East is one of the fastest growing regions in Australia, having an adequate level of transport infrastructure and services that keep pace with the growth and development is vital. Whilst the South East region has seen recent investment by the State Government and Federal Government in major transport infrastructure that help address some existing shortfalls, it is not enough. The Strategy highlights more investment and better planning is needed, and points to some of the regionally focussed projects and initiatives that can support the regions needs. South East Transport Strategy The Strategy developed with Jacobs Pty Ltd and State Government transport agencies is the region’s transport network plan for the next decade. The Strategy is closely aligned to Council’s vision and objectives outlined in the Council Plan 2017-2021 as well as Casey’s Integrated Transport Strategy - StreetsAhead (2017) and Council’s highly successful Commit to Casey Campaign. The Strategy considers Plan Melbourne and Infrastructure Victoria’s 30 year Victorian Infrastructure Plan. It aims to support the efficient movement of residents, visitors and goods to support the region’s economy and roll out the required public transport and road networks for the next decade. The Strategy aims to provide an integrated transport network that supports strong economic and jobs growth for the region that is currently home to 1.2 million people and set to surge to 1.5 million by 2031. The contemporary Strategy recognises high car dependency in the South East coupled with more than 86 per cent of the community driving to work each day is not sustainable and provides a mechanism to advocate to the State and Federal Governments on the key strategic transport priorities for the region. Key outcomes and the implications of the Strategy for Casey and the region include: • Better road, freight and public transport connections. • Wider expansion of the transport network to major centres. • Better corridor connections across the region. The Strategy covers the need for better road safety, roll out of regional active transport initiatives and better utilisation of technology to increase mode choice, coverage and flexibility across the network. Council Meeting Page 2 Officers’ Reports 2 October 2018 ITEM 6.1 Benefits of a Regional Transport Approach The South East region requires well-planned transport investment that will enable the growing needs of the community and meet the transport challenges ahead. The Strategy calls for transport actions and initiatives over the next decade that includes: • Provision for high-quality regional road and public transport connections. • Review of existing public transport routes and services, to identify priority regional routes for the delivery of more targeted services and the creation of mass transit bus networks. • Advocacy for the regional network upgrades and enhancements required to meet future demand for high capacity public transport links in the South East. The regional transport network promotes social and economic participation, increases access to a range of jobs, services and activities and helps to reduce social disadvantage. The critical transport projects and programs outlined in the Strategy support investment and economic development help manage and address known regional challenges that will improve accessibility, safety and health and wellbeing in Casey and the South East. The Strategy is consistent with the vision and objectives of Casey’s Integrated Transport Strategy – StreetsAhead (2017) and Council’s long-term advocacy campaigns including Commit to Casey. By endorsing the Strategy we are giving more weight to advocate for infrastructure and services for the region. Financial Implications The vast majority of the projects and initiatives identified in the Strategy over the next decade require a high degree of investment, support and action from State and Federal Government and the private sector, who will largely be responsible for delivering projects and programs. Council is adequately resourced to participate and respond to the South East Melbourne Integrated Transport Group’s regional projects and programs and much of the advocacy is directly aligned to Council’s Commit to Casey campaign. Whilst the Strategy does not commit

  • 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.
