Abstract

The paper reports on the methodology developed by the road traffic authority, Victoria for public consultation in one transport planning study -North fitzroy. Throughout the study significant emphasis was placed on public involvement, which took various forms; formal committees, surveys (residents, motorists and interest groups) and public displays. This involvement assisted in identifying issues of concern and the types of solution most acceptable to the community. The use of public consultation requires significant commitment of staff, resources and time. However, it has been effective in giving users a genuine and positive role in the development of strategies which effect them and thus developing proposals which have a high probability of implementation (a). For the covering record of the conference, see IRRD no 814837.
