WestConnex: a congestion
buster?
The
centrepiece
is
a
new
Western
Harbour
tunnel,
and
a
West
Connex
extension
at
Rozelle.
Mr
Baird
said
it
would
alleviate
conges1on
on
the
Sydney
Harbour
Bridge,
Anzac
Bridge
and
the
Eastern
Distributor,
as
well
as
in
the
CBD.
"By
bus1ng
conges1on
we
will
allow
people
to
get
to
work
quicker
and
home
sooner
to
spend
more
1me
with
their
families,"
Mr
Baird
said.

A
Rail
Revolu=on
The
old
suburban
railways
have
been
transformed
into
dedicated
express
intercity
services
and
a
comprehensive
metro
rail
system.
The
backbone
of
the
suburban
rail
network
is
a
network
of
express
intercity
services,
providing
rapid
transit
between
the
many
ci1es
of
Sydney.
Sydney
to
Parrama5a
is
a
10
minute
journey,
with
a
journey
from
Campbelltown
to
Sydney
taking
less
than
30
minutes
with
convenient
interchange
to
metro
services
along
the
way.
The
metro
system
is
a
fast,
comfortable,
convenient,
frequent,
reliable
means
of
mass
transit.
The
metro
system,
hallmark
of
a
modern
global
city,
is
the
principal
mode
of
public
transport
in
Sydney.

The
people
who
are
making
the
most
noise
are
those
who
already
have
the
ability
to
jump
in
their
car,
drive
wherever
they
want,
they've
got
great
public
transport
opportuni=es,
they
are
a
demographic
that,
generally
speaking,
is
wealthier,
and
there
is
this
aPtude
of
'I
love
my
community
don't
mess
it
up.
But
they're
not
living
in
the
mortgage
belt.
They
don't
have
kids
who
are
to
some
extent
excluded
socially
from
the
opportuni=es
that
some
people
have.
It's
not
right
for
the
people
in
an
inner-city
community
to
come
in
and
enjoy
their
lifestyle
and
try
and
apply
that
to
everybody
else.
And
I
think
that's
exactly
what
we
are
seeing.

Freeways Parks
Cheonggyecheon, Seoul
Not only has the greenway become a well-loved part of the city, it has proven to benefit
the city in many different ways. The temperature of the inner city has dropped several
degrees, and birds, fish and other wildlife have returned to the urban core. Also, since the
freeways were removed, fewer people are driving into the city, choosing to take public
transit or other options.

Meanwhile,
the
genera1on
raised
on
Friends
is
not
the
only
major
cohort
looking
for
new
places
to
live.
Theres
a
larger
one:
the
millennials
parents,
the
front-end
boomers.
They
are
ci1zens
that
every
city
wantssignicant
personal
savings,
no
schoolkids.
And
empty
nesters
want
walkability:
With
the
leading
edge
of
the
boomers
now
approaching
sixty-ve
years
old,
the
group
is
nding
that
their
suburban
houses
are
too
big.
Their
child-rearing
days
are
ending,
and
all
those
empty
rooms
have
to
be
heated,
cooled,
and
cleaned,
and
the
unused
backyard
maintained.
Suburban
houses
can
be
socially
isola1ng,
especially
as
aging
eyes
and
slower
reexes
make
driving
everywhere
less
comfortable.
Freedom
for
many
in
this
genera1on
means
living
in
walkable,
accessible
communi1es
with
convenient
transit
linkages
and
good
public
services
like
libraries,
cultural
ac1vi1es,
and
health
care.6
For
them,
that
increased
walkability
means
all
the
dierence
between
an
essen1ally
housebound
existence
and
what
we
all
hope
will
be
several
decades
of
con1nued
independence.
*
In
combina1on
with
their
independent
children,
these
re1ring
boomers
will
numerically
overwhelm
those
families
of
child-rearing
age
who
typically
prefer
the
suburbs.
This
upcoming
convergence
represents
the
biggest
demographic
event
since
the
baby
boom
itself.

transport takeaways
Though
cars
are
s1ll
dominant,
the
era
of
automobilty
seems
to
have
peaked:
though
we
are
s1ll
designing
this
city
around
it
Its
a
delusion
to
think
you
can
reduce
conges1on
by
building
roads:
only
road
pricing
and
extra
public
transport
connec1vity
can
achieve
that
Light
rail
and
other
PT
needs
to
be
part
of
wider
transport
network
including
ac1ve
transport
-
We
need
to
redesign
walking
back
into
our
ci1es
for
economic
and
health
reasons
PT
alone
is
not
enough
we
need
to
manage
demand
on
our
roads
and
look
at
car
parking
policy
We
need
to
explain
to
the
public
the
true
cost
and
benets
of
transport
modes:
and
not
select
modes
solely
because
they
seem
fundable
from
tolls
85
takeaways
The
community
will
support
big
public
transport
spending
if
we
iden1fy
the
long
term
benets
and
develop
easy
to
pay
instalment
methods
such
as
Denvers
hypotheca1on
of
small
%
GST
to
public
transit
We
need
appraisal
processes
that
value
wider
benets
and
longer
term
payback
periods
and
not
just
eciency
or
speed
or
returns
to
Treasury
over
3
years:the
Harbour
Bridge
would
never
have
qualied.
We
need
to
end
the
default
low
density
sprawl
model
of
Sydneys
development:
86
takeaways
We
need
to
embrace
the
future
of
smaller
homes,
shared
spaces
and
bigger
lifestyles:
both
Millennials
and
re1ring
baby
boomers
are
vo1ng
with
their
feet
for
this
future
:
we
need
to
ensure
they
can
have
that
future
in
Parrama5a
and
other
key
centres
Key
to
unlocking
all
this
is
funding
user
and
beneciaries
pays
-
making
sure
we
capture
the
value
of
PT
investment
that
is
currently
accruing
,
unearned
,to
private
landowners
:
many
global
ci1es
doing
this
We
must
end
ver1cal
scal
imbalance
and
federal
underfunding
of
our
ci1es
:
the
feds
need
to
invest
in
PT
projects
in
our
ci1es
because
of
the
GDP
benets
they
bring
par1cularly
in
a
knowledge
economy
