Smart accessibility: Shaping the Lower Hunter Region for the 21st century Ian Donovan Abstract Despite being Australia’s sixth largest urban region (population 2014: 562,500, similar to Canberra, Hobart and Darwin combined, and expected to reach 760,000 by 2030), planning and provision for public transport in the Lower Hunter arguably receives little more priority than in a large country town. Long-term under-investment in public transport and poor integration with urban planning have contributed to very low patronage levels. How- ever, growing population and congestion, transition from a consumption economy, the ‘peak car’ phenomenon, decarbonisation of urban transport and others factors all point to the need for significant rebalancing between public, private and active transport modes, with an emphasis on ‘accessibil- ity’ rather than ‘mobility’. The issue has been heightened by the contentious removal of a key segment of the regional rail network. In contrast, compa- rable medium-sized cities overseas have been extending their rail networks. The presentation will examine six key actions for reshaping inter- and intra- regional accessibility to meet the needs of the 21st Century: 1. Planning for high speed rail 2. Bringing intercity rail up to scratch 3. Re-routing the East Coast rail freight corridor 4. Shifting to a ‘network effect’ public transport system 5. Locating travel-generating activities according to accessibility 6. Reforming regional public transport governance.

Smart accessibility:Shaping the Lower Hunter Region for the 21st century

Ian Donovan

AbstractDespite being Australia’s sixth largest urban region (population 2014: 562,500, similar to Canberra, Hobart and Darwin combined, and expected to reach 760,000 by 2030), planning and provision for public transport in the Lower Hunter arguably receives little more priority than in a large country town. Long-term under-investment in public transport and poor integration with urban planning have contributed to very low patronage levels. How-

ever, growing population and congestion, transition from a consumption economy, the ‘peak car’ phenomenon, decarbonisation of urban transport and others factors all point to the need for significant rebalancing between public, private and active transport modes, with an emphasis on ‘accessibil-ity’ rather than ‘mobility’. The issue has been heightened by the contentious removal of a key segment of the regional rail network. In contrast, compa-rable medium-sized cities overseas have been extending their rail networks. The presentation will examine six key actions for reshaping inter- and intra-regional accessibility to meet the needs of the 21st Century:1. Planning for high speed rail2. Bringing intercity rail up to scratch3. Re-routing the East Coast rail freight corridor4. Shifting to a ‘network effect’ public transport system5. Locating travel-generating activities according to accessibility6. Reforming regional public transport governance.

Paradigm shift …

Mobility

• freedom of movement / travel

• focuses on transport systems in their own right

• supply-oriented (“build more roads”)

Accessibility

• reaching services & activities with acceptable time, cost & environmen-tal impact

• focuses on land use & transport as interacting systems

• 3 means of access:

- proximity

- travel

- telecommunication

5. Locating development according to accessibility

6. Reforming regional transport governance

6 steps for reshaping the Hunter

1. Plan for high speed rail • Integrate station location with regional accessibility • Plan & secure corridors & connecting links

2. Bring intercity rail up to scratch • Reduce travel times & improve rolling stock to international standards • Plan a rail connection to Newcastle Airport

3. Re-route the East Coast rail freight corridor • Maximise scope for expanding passenger services; plan & secure corridors

4. Shift to a ‘network effect’ public transport system • Adopt the ‘go anywhere, anytime’ principle, & offer a competitive alternative to the car • Plan a Hunter Metro; investigate network design, mode selection, regeneration & economic impact • Consider hybrid rail options; ensure that options are not closed off

5. Locate development according to accessibility • Build accessibility principles into planning policies & development guidelines

6. Reform regional public transport governance • Form a Hunter Transport Alliance to carry out service planning, coordination & marketing
