The concept of Net Zero Corridors moves from precinct-scale to city-scale transformation using mid-tier transit routes as enablers of high-quality urban regeneration. Many of the net zero features and place qualities can be addressed at a precinct level, whilst improved financial and fiscal outcomes, as well as city-wide accessibility are achieved through corridors.
The primary case study is located in Adelaide where speculative scenarios will be developed with stakeholders to explore the potential for strategic net zero urban infill within the Noarlunga Centre and Beach Road corridor.
Central to this research is the adaptation and testing of an open-source US scenario modelling tool called Envision Tomorrow. Dubbed ‘ET Oz’, the Australian version aims to support decision making processes for optimising urban regeneration and net zero outcomes. The application of the ET-Oz tool at the Noarlunga builds on earlier developmental work on the tool at small project and neigbourhood scale precincts including WGV in White Gum Valley and the Knutsford Urban Regeneration precinct in Fremantle, WA.
