The 30-minute city or $8 dollars city: Accessibility
Darcy (Transport for New South Wales)
Session: 4
Room: 3270
Format: Presentation
Summary: In Melbourne, one team of presenters used willingness to spend money to calculate accessibility. To determine the appropriate cost type for measuring accessibility, we need to focus on the demographics of the destination. Who wants to use the specific destination, and is it better to measure accessibility in terms of time or cost (money)? Consider when people want to get to that destination and the socio-economic status of the population in the neighborhood.
Parking Benefit

Session: 4

Summary: The parking benefit is the demand for parking. Since many individuals' carports are not used for the whole day. Compared to permanently making the part for individuals, making them available to the public for non-used time can maximise the benefit of parking. People who want to rent a part for a period can buy a monthly ticket. Developing apps allowing people to book the space in advance can also improve the parking benefits.
