Week 8: Project 2 - Idea Development Log Continued

GOOGLE MAP VIEW OF REGION

 As the proposed PRT system for 2020 would be run on a smaller scale to the one proposed in our Group Project 1, the location of the precinct has been scaled down substantially. After examination of the site, the following image details the location and boundaries of the proposed precinct.

RED: NEIGHBOURING AREAS, GREEN: PRECINCT AREA
The location of the boundaries of the site means that the existing Paddington Central Site, the location of the future Paddington Personal Rapid Transit Centre, will be centrally located within the precinct.

The streets acting as boundaries to the site include:
  • Waterworks Road
  • Musgrave Road
  • Jubilee Terrace
  • Mac Gregor Terrace
  • Hale Street

Drawing on from Project 1, it was proposed that the main roads running through the area would be retained to allow vehicular access and egress through the site.

RED LINES: EXISTING ROADS TO BE RETAINED FOR VEHICULAR ACCESS
The streets within the precinct that allow vehicular access include:
  • Enoggera Terrace
  • Latrobe Terrace
  • Given Terrace
  • Caxton Street

This divides the precinct into three main quadrants that would be serviced by the PRT system, as detailed in the image below.
