MINUTE BY THE LORD MAYOR•achieve integrated transport for inner Sydney•improve the public domain, particularly around station entrances•improve opportunities for pedestrians and bicycle riders
Recommendations by Professor Jahn Gehl……(for Public Domain Improvements)•a pedestrian and cycling friendly city•improved public transport•the redevelopment of George Street as a pedestrian “spine”•the development of three square, including a central square opposite Town Hall
……Sustainable Sydney 2030Town Hall Square – new civic square
Pyrmont – demolition of 5 terraces in Union Street
Need for an Integrated Transport Plan (private vehicles to public transport)6 key issues: 1. Bus decongestion in the City
2. Integration with light rail3. Heavy rail upgrades4. Integrated ticketing5. Improvements to pedestrian accessibility6. Integration with the City’s Cycles Strategy and Action Plan 2007-2017

DESIGNING CITIESurban design not only looks for explanations of the city, but it customarily moves into evaluation and recommendations for future design.
Areas of Concentration
Environment-behaviour Studies•assemble the complex puzzle of interactions between people and their surroundings.•pedestrian and bicycle friendly
SYDNEY OLYMPIC TRAIN STATIONLocation: Homebush, Sydney, New South Wales Architect: Hassell Group: Ken Maher Engineer: Tierney & Partners Builder: Leighton Contractors Pty. Ltd.
• rectangular plan – 200m x 35m • platform to roof top – 21m • single span vaulted 'leaf' roof truss • 18 modules spaced at 12m• floor area 7000 sq m • 6m deep excavation "below" ground, 15m high roof
canopy from ground level 1. to ensure absolute clarity and legibility for the station passengers
2. open air structure3. awareness of the external environment. 4. to celebrate the act of arrival and
departure 5. to rely to the maximum extent on natural
lighting and ventilation 6. to give a clear sense of direction in the
architecture 7. to provide a seamless link to the public
domain 8. strong, singular image for the station

Shibuya Station is one of Japan’s busiest transit hubs. Its futuristic “spaceship” design, by environmentalist and architect Tadao Ando, boasts a number of green features.
SHIBUYA STATION, TOKYO METRO
•a vital hub in Tokyo’s transit network, •integrated transport system•design intention: private vehicles to public transport•the most substantial transport network in the world•sense of spatial relations with the streets above (a large open space at the centre of the station)•30 meters below ground which composed of a central void contained inside an egg-shaped shell
Passive Energy Efficiency•aim to reduce the station’s dependency on air conditioning equipments (natural ventilation)•it’s skin contains a water cooling system•a world-first in subway ventilation strategies•water pipes -creates a cooling effect •indoor treesCentral

NORTH GREENWICH TUBE STATIONAlsop Architects
• one of the largest stations on the Jubilee Line• objectives were to provide simplicity of function for
operational purposes, with a sense of openness and clarity of movement for passengers.
• 'cut-and-cover' approach• underground, one-third visible to the travelling
public• a long, rectangular plan - 360m long, 30m wide and
13m deep • handling around 20,000 passengers an hour• co-located with a bus station, allowing interchange
with bus servicesCross short section of North Greenwich station
