dc.description.abstractIn 2010, the South Australian State Labor Government under the premiership of Mike Rann introduced the 30 Year Plan for Greater Adelaide (30YPGA). This Plan has a key role in transforming Adelaide into a new compact and sustainable urban form. In a city that is characterised by car dependency and low density development, this potentially represents a pivotal moment in Adelaide’s planning future. However, a critical shortcoming of the 30YPGA was that it lacked explicit detail about the nature of transport infrastructure and transport mobility that would be required to support a planned population growth of 560,000 people to Adelaide’s then current population of 1.15 million. The weakness in the 30YPGA in planning for transport is about to be rectified with a soon to be released Integrated Transport and Land Use Plan (ITLP) for the Australian state of South Australia. A draft version of the ITLP was released to the public for community consultation at the end of 2013 This paper considers whether the legislative approach taken in addressing the issues in the ITLP are suited to achieving the overall planning objectives for the 30YPGA, particularly as they relate to transforming Adelaide’s public transit system and in creating new urban form based on a network of Transit Oriented Developments (TODs) and Transit Corridors (TCs). It also examines whether mobility and accessibility will be significantly improved by the Plan, and lastly, whether it has the potential to significantly reduce carbon emissions.
