Abstract

The development history and continuing successful operation of western Sydney’s Liverpool-Parramatta T-way (LPT) challenge both the view that the city’s low-density and traditionally car-reliant suburbs struggle to support regional public transport services of a high standard, and the occasional bout of scepticism regarding the ability of rapid bus transit to drive beneficial land use changes. The paper describes the grounds for regarding the LPT as a positive example of integrated public transport and land use planning by testing LPT performance against these qualitative planning benchmarks, illustrated by quantitative patronage data (Author/publisher) For the covering entry of this conference, please see ITRD abstract no.
