Summary

  • Consider this, Melbourne is now a communist city, in the year 2021-2022 a mode must be selected for the best prosperity and happiness of the city. Two themes were created: Mass Transit vs Micro Mobility.

  • Team Micro mobility: Challenges are suburban sprawl, the distance between destinations, limited safe infrastructure, wide roads, cultural influence, Neo-liberalism, MAAS for profit, education, and capitalism.
    Goals: Tax the rich, no new roads, slow down our lives, diverse range to suit a variety of access needs and trip purposes.

  • Team Macro mobility: Goal for high-speed rail. Highways are now of no use, re-purpose public space.
    Consider multi-CBD Cities, connected via macro PTV.
