THE VALUE OF PLANNING IN … project design, development and implementation
This seminar highlights, through current case studies, the value of planning (and planners) in bringing iconic projects to life.
Peter Hyland M91porn, Regional Director, Urbis/Cistri discusses the development of the Orchard Road Masterplan. Orchard Road holds a special place in the heart of Singaporeans and is an internationally recognised shopping and lifestyle destination. A precinct with many distinct experiences, the Orchard Road Master Plan is a statutory planning document for the Urban Redevelopment Authority (the entity that controls Singapore’s planning and development framework) that seeks to enhance the offer of Orchard Road to ensure the values that have made it what it is today remain core to its offer into the future with the changing face of retail. Singapore is world renowned for its sub tropicality and the Orchard Road master plan enshrines these values into the statutory planning framework. Peter takes the audience on the journey of leading this project from inception to application – and the many planning lessons along the way.
Cross River Rail is a new 10.2 kilometre rail line from Dutton Park to Bowen Hills, which includes 5.9 kilometres of twin tunnels under the Brisbane River and the CBD. Graeme Newton, Chief Executive Officer, Cross River Rail Delivery Authority discusses the project’s progress so far and what to expect in 2021.
Cross River Rail will unlock a bottleneck at the core of South East Queensland’s transport network, allowing more trains to run more often and integrating with new roads and new bus services to enable a turn-up-and-go public transport system for the whole of South East Queensland. The project will also be a catalyst for urban renewal within and around its station precincts and Graeme takes you on a journey in time from what the project looks like now to what the project will deliver in the future.
