Bringing High Speed rail to Australia High Speed Rail World Australia will bring together leading global high speed rail executives with Government and Transport operators who are currently evaluating the business case for High Speed Rail in this country.
For Delegates
The World is experiencing a global high speed rail explosion, with many first world countries expanding or developing high speed rail networks. Whilst there are currently no high speed rail projects in Australia, there is an increasingly strong business case for Australian High Speed Rail (HSR), and a growing consensus that HSR could truly transform passenger travel throughout Australia. Travel demand - The Melbourne-Sydney route is the World’s fourth busiest air route, Sydney-Brisbane is seventh busiest in the Asia/Pacific region. High speed rail connections between these hubs would enjoy a high level of patronage. Speed – The average speed of HSR projects has been steadily increasing over the past decade increasing its appeal to commuters over airlines. Airport congestion / Invasive airport security – Transit time through major Australian airports is increasing due to increased security provisions and airport congestion. Energy efficiency – HSR is now significantly more energy efficient compared to alternative forms of transport. Freight applications – HSR is starting to be used for freight transport in Europe. Key topics / themes The business case for high speed rail in Australia Federal & State HSR policy initiatives Leading global high speed rail case studies Understanding HSR freight applications Project finance, Investment & funding HSR technology update and developments Interoperability & Integration with regional and commuter rail / metros / city grid Station area development and transit oriented development (TOD) Train manufacturing & power supply Maintenance & operations Regulation, planning and safety Economic development opportunities in high speed rail corridors HSR energy efficiency and sustainability �
