Info

The streets will be designed to provide a comprehensive network of safe, direct and attractive cycle paths and footpaths for commuter and recreational purposes. This, in combination with the provision of daily needs close to all homes, will enable people to walk or cycle to local destinations such as neighbourhood shops, public transport, workplaces, primary schools and parks, supporting healthy lifestyles and avoiding social isolation. 2.9 UTILITY SERVICES The latest technology will be employed to ensure that the utility services at Armstrong Creek are as up-to-date and environmentally friendly as possible. This will include measures to minimise potable water use—such as rainwater tanks and water recycling—and to minimise the impact of stormwater runoff on the natural watercourses. State-of-the-art recycling services will be provided and provision will be made for leading-edge telecommunications technology. Utilities will be placed below ground wherever possible, to avoid visual intrusion. 2.10 BUILDINGS New standards will be established to ensure that buildings are as environmentally friendly and healthy as possible. This will include measures to minimise energy and water use. The siting of buildings will maximise solar access and provide for the efficient use of land. Design guidelines will also ensure the creation of a coherent character within each neighbourhood, while maintaining scope for personalisation.

3 FRAMEWORK PLAN 3.1 KEY STRUCTURING ELEMENTS Make not little plans; they have no magic to stir men’s blood and probably themselves will not be realized. Make big plans; aim high in hope and work, remembering that a noble, logical diagram once recorded will never die, but long after we are gone will be a living thing, asserting itself with everygrowing insistency. Daniel Burnham, architect The Framework Plan illustrated in Figure 3.1 sets out the key structuring elements of the UGP. It should be noted that the infrastructure alignments and boundaries between urban land uses are indicative only, and subject to refinement at the Precinct Structure Planning stage. The table below outlines the key elements of the plan and provides references to the sections of this report where they are discussed in more detail: Element Notes Section Ref Urban Growth Boundary Boundary between urban and non-urban land 5.0 Rail Line & Station Existing Geelong-Warrnambool railway line Upgraded Marshall Station amenities 4.8.3 Sub-Regional Transit Route High-quality public transport link to Major Activity Centre and, potentially, beyond to Torquay 4.8.5 Possible Future Public Transport Interchange Possible future public transport interchange providing access to high-quality longer-distance public transport services 4.8.4- 4.8.5 Local Transit Services Local public transport services integrated with road network Recreational Trail Walking and cycling leisure routes through major parks Pedestrian Bridges New footbridges linking existing and new communities Geelong Ring Road New freeway-standard road around Geelong's western outskirts linking the Princes Freeway in Corio to the Princes Highway in Waurn Ponds 4.8.6 4.7.2 4.8.8 4.8.10 Arterial Roads New and existing main roads 4.8.10 Connector Streets New trunk collector roads 4.8.9 ARMSTRONG CREEK URBAN GROWTH PLAN / VOLUME 1 (ADOPTED 13 MAY 2008, AMENDED MAY 2010) 21
