[edit] Introduction, by Sir Rod Eddington

"Melbourne’s long-term prosperity will require the city to find new ways to succeed and grow in a carbon-constrained world. Higher levels of investment in public transport are vital, as is the development of urban areas that are conducive to walking and cycling. However, the evidence is clear that the number of trips made by car in Melbourne will increase by a substantial amount for the foreseeable future – and the city’s road network must be able to cope with this increasing demand in an efficient and sustainable manner."
