Core principles | Core practices |
1) Precinct safety and accessibility: the development should be safe and healthy for people waiting to access transport nodes | · Human centred design · Walkable urban design · Place and movement design |
2) Carbon neutral—positive approach: the development should aim for carbon positive, being at least zero carbon, in both power and transport | · Solar passive design · Solar active design · Carbon neutral analysis |
3) Local shared mobility: the development should encourage diverse local modal services to access the transit service, with defined spaces | · Local mobility design · Feeder transport design · Mobility as a service |
4) Property diversity: the density and urban mix should contribute to urban regeneration | · Community engaged planning · Agglomeration economy analysis · Financial modelling |
5) Property affordability: the development should include diverse property options to provide affordable living as well as affordable housing | · Social housing analysis · Life cycle assessment · Sustainability operational analysis |
6) Nature-loving and biodiverse spaces: the development should include and connect biophilic and biodiverse greenspaces, supporting endemic species and habitat | · Biophilic design · Water sensitive design · Landscape oriented design |
7) Inclusive, integrated place-based planning: planning, design and implementation (operation, maintenance) should involve diverse stakeholders and all tiers of government to provide an integrated place-based approach | · Joined up governance analysis · Partnership analysis · Procurement option analysis |
