  2. Urban Areas • For major road development projects, the big ideas that shape our overall approach to sustainability can be challenging to implement at a project level. • Key considerations included traffic and transport efficiency, biodiversity, heritage, water management, community impacts and long-term and cumulative impacts

  3. Urban Areas All communities require accessibility to supplies, services, facilities and work opportunities. The accessibility of such things can be measured in different ways [Jones 1981]. Accessibility depends on infrastructure and available and affordable modes of transport for the movement of people and their loads. Accessibility therefore depends on physical proximity and mobility. It may be improved by greater mobility and/or improved proximity

  4. Urban Areas • In the broadest sense, transport infrastructure includes: • paths, roads, bridges, tram and train tracks and stations, waterways, airports and air lanes. • A variety of transport modes are used to carry passengers and/or freight, namely: • trucks, pickups, buses, mini-buses, cars, motorcycles, boats, trains, trams, animal transport, bicycles, handcarts and self-propelled walking. • These modes are utilised for private or commercial use. Commercial transport services involve the users paying fares or hire charges.

  5. Urban Areas • Transport infrastructure and transport modes form operational ‘transport systems’. Mobility for men, women, children and goods depends on the availability, affordability and efficiency of such transport systems. It must be emphasised that it is the combination of these components that comprise a system of transport. Proximity to a road system without access to vehicles conveys little or no benefit. Similarly, some vehicles, but not necessarily the less sophisticated, cannot function without a road in reasonable condition.
