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.
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.
Description of Use Contains all the data sets used in the project that responds to the challenge of how we can make NSW a cycling friendly state, particularly the urban areas. This forms the core of the proposed Towards Zero Net Emission Through Active Transport.
Description of Use Provides information on how to participate in the Emissions Reduction Fund.
Description of Use This is used as reference for activities that achieve emissions reductions consistent with an approved method.
