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.
Initial corridor case studies will include a route from Knutsford to Fremantle, which intersects with the Knutsford Urban Regeneration Precinct, and a route from Stirling to Curtin which intersects with the Curtin Bentley campus precinct. A third case study will be in Melbourne along the Caulfield to Rowville corridor connecting with Chadstone Shopping Centre and Monash University’s Clayton Campus.
Central to this research is the adaption 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.
