Here are the essential skills from my point of view that transport planners must have today (this is not an exhaustive list! :) 1). Advanced #DataAnalysis and #SimulationTechnologies: Mastery over Geographic Information Systems (#GIS) and simulation software is indispensable or very much desirable. This tipically involves leveraging data for predictive modeling, capacity planning, and to enhance #TransportEfficiency 2). Deep/good understanding of #SustainableTransport: With the global push towards the United Nations #SDGs, transport planners must bear in mind the principles of sustainable mobility. This includes designing low-emission transport systems, promoting #Active Travel (cycling, walking), and integrating public transport with green urban spaces. 3). Effective #StakeholderEngagement: The ability to engage with a diverse range of stakeholders- governments, private sector, civic groups, and the public-is critical. Transport planners need to facilitate dialogue, manage conflicts, and harness community insights for project success. 4). Regulatory and policy knowledge: A solid grasp of transportation laws, regulations, and policy frameworks at local, national, and international levels ensures plans are viable and compliant. 5). Innovative #Mobility Solutions and #UrbanDesign: Creativity in addressing urban mobility challenges is essential. This encompasses not just the physical design of transport systems but also conceptualizing new service models like #MaaS. Placemaking skills that create vibrant, accessible, and safe spaces are also a superpower.

Greening the City: Victoria's Metro Tunnel Victoria's Metro Tunnel is a true game-changer! Not only is it the largest public transport project in Victoria's history, but it's also crucial for boosting Melbourne's transport system. Picture this: twin nine-kilometer train tunnels running from east to west, easing congestion and enhancing overall capacity. But wait, there's more! Sustainability takes center stage with five unique underground stations featuring green spaces. These hubs aren't just spots to hop on a train; they're designed to enhance city living. The Metro Tunnel isn't just about today; it's about setting a new bar for eco-friendly public transport, solidifying Melbourne's role as a sustainable urban pioneer. 🚇🌿 #MetroTunnel #Sustainability #UrbanDevelopment

Interesting ranking of urban transport modes and their emissions from production to operation. Walking, cycling and using public ligth e-transport are clearly the winners. E-cars are better but they have a high carbon footprint in their production phase
