The potential role of transit-oriented development in Australian cities: a critical assessment using a suburban rail corridor

在澳大利亚和其他地方，城市发展的可持续性和我们减少对私家车的依赖是关键问题。这项研究的结果将在评估和采用可持续交通解决方案方面提供信息并引领世界最佳实践，特别是与城市公共交通系统投资有关的解决方案，从而为规划者和开发商提供选择，将发展对环境的影响降至最低。该项目的好处将是改善澳大利亚城市近郊和远郊以交通为导向的城市发展的规划和设计原则和规划工具。

Sustainability in urban development and a reduction in our dependence on the private car for mobility are key concerns in Australia and elsewhere. The results of this research will inform and lead world's best practice in the evaluation and adoption of sustainable transport solutions, especially those related to investment in urban public transport systems, and hence provide options for planners and developers to minimise the impacts of developments on the environment. The benefits from the project will be in improved planning and design principles and planning tools for transit-oriented urban developments in both inner and outer suburbs in Australian cities.
