11:00 AM Light Rail Route Planning for Intermodal Integration and Urban Growth
At a time when major cities across Australia are involved with the delivery of major infrastructure across all modes of transport, the necessity of taking an intermodal approach to project planning has never been greater.
This workshop will explore the strategic asset planning strategies that need to be considered to ensure successful light rail infrastructure delivery in a multi-modal transport operating environment.
- Developing a whole-of-life strategic asset management plan
- Exploring Value capture strategies and economic considerations on light rail routes
- Understanding Land capture and land use planning
- Avoiding the perils of siloed transport planning across multi modal projects
- Smart planning for improved project efficiency and risk mitigation

10:20 AM Next Generation of Light Rail Transit in Los Angeles
With approximately 40 transportation projects being envisioned and implemented over the next 40 years, Los Angeles, California now has the largest transportation expansion program in North America and perhaps the western hemisphere. Over 28 of these projects are planned to b built in time for the 2028 Olympics slated to be held in Los Angeles.
Approximately nine of these projects are being considered for light rail transit (LRT), representing 32 percent of all expansion projects being built in the next ten years. What are the challenges presented with implementing LRT in a vast multimodal operating environment such as Los Angeles in time for a worldwide event such as the Olympics?
- Financial capacity and capability to build and maintain multiple transit corridors in the next ten years
- Community acceptance
- Connectivity to the larger network
- Meeting transportation planning and program performance targets
- Building sustainably in a dynamic economic environment
- Attracting talent to build technical capacity and capability in the workforce to meet project delivery goals
