  • City Link's High-Speed Electronic Tolling
    CASE PROGRAM 2007-91.1 City Link’s high-speed electronic tolling (A) The tolling systems went live without a glitch at 1 am Monday the 3rd [of January 2000], a national public holiday. Charges now apply at three toll points located at the Tullamarine section, the elevated roadway between Racecourse and Dynon Roads, and the Bolte Bridge… Although fewer motorists were on the road, demand for e-Tags was strong. Since the 23 December announcement [that tolling would begin 3 January] more than 45,000 e-Tags have been ordered, bringing the total sales to date to almost 400,000. The first day of tolling, CityLink’s 132629 hotline fielded more than 20,000 calls. The continued demand throughout the week prompted Transurban to announce the availability of a second hotline for general enquiries… Transurban Managing Director Kim Edwards said the company was pleased with the recent developments and expressed appreciation for the public’s patience during recent delays. “We are thrilled to deliver the completed Western Link to Melbourne’s motorists, who will now get the full benefit of the project’s leading-edge technology and design,” he said. Extract from: fasttrack, Transurban CityLink executive information newsletter, January 2000. In August 2000, Transurban City Link chief executive Kim Edwards announced that his company’s damages claim against the consortium Transfield-Obayashi Joint Venture (TOJV) for delays and difficulties with the 22-km City Link tollway was ________________________________________________________________ This case was prepared from published information by Susan Keyes-Pearce, MBA 1998 and Professor Michael Vitale of the Centre for Management of Information Technology at the University of Melbourne.

  • Marc Brennan Thesis
    Writing to Reach You: The Consumer Music Press and Music Journalism in the UK and Australia Marc Brennan, BA (Hons) Creative Industries Research and Applications Centre (CIRAC) Thesis Submitted for the Completion of Doctor of Philosophy (Creative Industries), 2005 Writing to Reach You Keywords Journalism, Performance, Readerships, Music, Consumers, Frameworks, Publishing, Dialogue, Genre, Branding Consumption, Production, Internet, Customisation, Personalisation, Fragmentation Writing to Reach You: The Consumer Music Press and Music Journalism in the UK and Australia The music press and music journalism are rarely subjected to substantial academic investigation. Analysis of journalism often focuses on the production of news across various platforms to understand the nature of politics and public debate in the contemporary era. But it is not possible, nor is it necessary, to analyse all emerging forms of journalism in the same way for they usually serve quite different purposes. Music journalism, for example, offers consumer guidance based on the creation and maintenance of a relationship between reader and writer. By focusing on the changing aspects of this relationship, an analysis of music journalism gives us an understanding of the changing nature of media production, media texts and media readerships. Music journalism is dialogue. It is a dialogue produced within particular critical frameworks that speak to different readers of the music press in different ways. These frameworks are continually evolving and reflect the broader social trajectory in which music journalism operates. Importantly, the evolving nature of music journalism reveals much about the changing consumption of popular music. Different types of consumers respond to different types of guidance that employ a variety of critical approaches.

    Victorian Heritage Database place details - 30/9/2021 COUNCIL CHAMBERS Location: 233-247 LITTLE COLLINS STREET MELBOURNE, MELBOURNE CITY Heritage Inventory (HI) Number: H7822-1753 Listing Authority: HI Heritage Inventory Citation STATEMENT OF CULTURAL HERITAGE SIGNIFICANCE: The Melbourne Town Hall was constructed between 1867 and 1872 on the site of the earlier Town Hall which had been designed by James Blackburn and completed in 1853. A competition was held for the new building between 1864 and 1866 and was won by Joseph Reed. The building included a public hall, administrative offices, Lord Mayor's rooms and Council Chamber. The portico was added in 1887-8 and was designed by Joseph Reed's firm at the time, Reed Henderson and Smart. The Administration Building was constructed in 1908-10 to accommodate the Council's growing administrative needs, and was the result of another competition. Grainger, Kennedy and Little won the competition and designed the interior, with the second prize won by JJ and EJ Clark who designed the The Melbourne Town Hall is of historic and social significance as the civic centre of Melbourne since 1867. It represents in its physical form the changing needs and aspirations of the citizens of Melbourne. Externally the building is of architectural importance as an early application of the French Second Empire style in Victoria as designed by prominent architect Joseph Reed. Internally, the hall and Collins Street entry foyer are of significance as an intact example of a major public space of the 1920s which retain original fittings and decoration. The Napier Waller murals in the hall are The organ is of technical or scientific significance as an intact and scarce example of 1920s British organ-building craftsmanship.

  • The Trades Hall Part of Our History
    The Trades Hall Part of Our History You aid them friends, with more than empty praise, Your contribution will assist to raise A people’s palace on yon vacant soil- A palace built and own’d by hardy sons of toil1 Image: State Library of Victoria Trades Hall, Corner of Lygon and Victoria Streets, Carlton (Photographed by John T. Collins in 1964) At a time when the nation’s biggest convenience store chain is being cast as ‘rorting wages of its workers’ it is worth noting that the history of one of the world’s earliest trade union buildings is in Carlton, on the fringe of the central city, originally solely financed and built by the workers to serve as a place for the labour movement. Melbourne building workers had successfully taken up an issue first raised by Sydney stonemasons for an Eight Hour Day. The skilled tradesmen, stonemasons, bricklayers, carpenters, joiners, plumbers, painters, slaters, quarrymen, coach builders, were Chartists or radicals who had emigrated from England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales, who had settled in cheaper suburbs like Collingwood, Fitzroy, North Melbourne and Richmond, who considered themselves ‘the fraternity of labour’, ‘the working bees of society’, ‘the producing classes’ and ‘the pioneers of the colony’.2 3 Their leader’s names are recorded on an honour board on the main staircase of the present building including Charles Don, Thomas Vine, James Stephens, James Galloway and Benjamin Douglass. Their families were also involved as the original Eight Hours flag was hand stitched by Vine’s three daughters.

  • Transporting Melbourne's Recovery
    Transporting Melbourne’s Recovery Immediate policy actions to get Melbourne moving January 2021 Executive Summary The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted how Victorians make decisions for when, where and how they travel. Lockdown periods significantly reduced travel around metropolitan Melbourne and regional Victoria due to travel restrictions and work-from-home directives. As Victoria enters the recovery phase towards a COVID Normal, our research suggests that these travel patterns will shift again – bringing about new transport challenges. Prior to the pandemic, the transport network was struggling to meet demand with congested roads and crowded public transport services. The recovery phase adds additional complexity to managing the network, as the Victorian Government will need to balance competing objectives such as transmission risks, congestion and stimulating greater economic activity. Governments across the world are working rapidly to understand how to cater for the shifting transport demands of their cities – specifically, a disruption to entire transport systems that were not designed with such health and biosecurity challenges in mind. Infrastructure Victoria’s research is intended to assist the Victorian Government in making short-term policy decisions to balance the safety and performance of the transport system with economic recovery. The research is also designed to inform decision-making by industry and businesses as their workforces return to a COVID Normal. It focuses on how the transport network may handle returning demand and provides options to overcome the crowding and congestion effects, while also balancing the health risks posed by potential local transmission of the virus. Balancing these impacts is critical to fostering confidence in public transport travel, thereby underpinning and sustaining Melbourne’s economic recovery.
