About this event

AITPM QLD Branch, with sponsorship from TTM Group, are proud to host the second in-person event at Toowoomba. Join us as we hear from three transport practitioners who will speak about planning and delivering infrastructure in uncertain times, drawing on Toowoomba based experiences.

Three presenters will be sharing their insights on this theme.

Speakers:

• Brian McKay | Senior Transport Planner, Toowoomba Regional Council
• Andrew Holden | Principal Engineer, TMR
• Gerard Reardon | Director, TTM Group

Presentations:

Speaker #1: Brian McKay 

A new approach to (road) trunk network definition and the historical decisions that shape today’s thinking

Current legislation requires local governments to deliver a local infrastructure plan in order to support future economic and population growth, this is based on the Council’s trunk network – what is the trunk network, how is it (historically) defined and how should it / could it be defined.

Speaker #2: Andrew Holden 

Alignment of project planning to strategic transport outcomes

Project planning often involves making difficult recommendations and tough decisions. The criteria used by planning practitioners to identify, develop and assess options can often shape the direction of a project and ultimately dictate the form of the infrastructure that it delivers to the transport network. The presentation considers the importance of aligning decision-making criteria to the strategic vision and direction of the transport system and examines a case study which successfully used this principle to guide an infrastructure project towards an acceptable and appropriate solution.

Speaker #3: Gerard Reardon 

Rethinking how we deliver transport infrastructure

The COVID pandemic has forever changed where we live, how we work and how we move. Planetary pushback demands sustainable transport systems. Information and communication technologies are rapidly reshaping mobility and travel demand. Changing social norms and intergenerational behaviour need new business models. The Australian government has committed to Vision Zero by 2050, and within this changing environment local governments are being required to deliver better urban design outcomes with increasingly limited budgets. This presentation outlines the trends reshaping transport demand and mobility and the changes needed in planning and design of transport infrastructure in response to community expectations.

Join us at Level 3 of the Toowoomba City Library (155 Herries Street).

The event will begin at 5:00pm and wrap up promptly at 7:00pm.
