Project Description


In this project, we respond to the challenge of how we can help Australia reach net zero emissions by 2050 through a pilot program in NSW which promotes active transport in urban areas. We propose a 5-point agenda which can be replicated across the other states and territories where participants earn carbon credits while improving health outcomes.


Data Story


Under this proposal, data on available cycling paths and networks will be included as part of the public transport data set. Collaboration with local councils is critical to its success, as local councils maintain cycling infrastructure not currently in the available data sets. In addition, public transport particularly buses can be retrofitted with bike racks to accommodate bikes, and this carrying capacity needs to be included in the public transport data sets too. Finally, customer facing digital tools such as trip planners will need to be updated to include options that would allow active transport in any given leg of a journey.

Helping Australia reach net zero emissions by 2050

Australia has a goal to reach net zero emissions by 2050. How can Australians use public spaces, including city landscapes to achieve these goals?

Eligibility: This question is open to all participants, excluding those currently working at CER, AER, DISR or ACCC.
