Transport model sought for Dockland
VicUrban has tendered for consultants to prepare a Transport Model and Sustainable Transport Strategy for Docklands.
Consultants are expected to be appointed this month and, once complete, the model will provide a robust framework to examine and prioritise access and mobility requirements for the next 10 years and beyond.
The model will take into account existing and future land use and infrastructure proposals to provide peak hour and daily traffic predictions, forecasts of public transport usage and an analysis of pedestrian and cycling patterns.
It will help identify and test options for maximising access and mobility to and within Docklands, including long-term connectivity to surrounding precincts.
The strategy will be developed in consultation with the City of Melbourne, VicRoads, the Department of Transport, key stakeholders and the wider community.
