Office & Educaton Node Connections

























Office Nodes & Educaton Nodes


Canberra lacks presence and identity due to a lack of connection. By connecting the nodes below via transit systems Canberra will be less fragmented.


  • Education - university, TAFE and schools
  • Work - industries and business centres
  • Cultural - museums, galleries, monuments, memorials, event locations
  • Recreation Hubs
  • Parliament
  • Hospitals
  • Sport
Our group decided that the best stratergy to resolve the current planning issues within Canberra would be a series of new and developed transport systems such as:
  • Light rail systems - connections at the central nodes with a series of feeder systems
  • Electric bus system - will connect the light rail nodes to the surrounding residential areas
  • High speed rail - to connect Canberra with the other states - national connection
  • Airport connection - increased by the above systems to create a better international connection
  • Cycle centres - to connect the residential/ business districts with the other systems above instead of car use
