Of interest to Public works Practitioners working in the area of transport is the Victoiran Transport Atlas devleoped by the Department of Transport.
The Victorian Transport Atlas intends to bring together a number of transport themes and data sets such as:
- journey to work
- public transport infrastructure
- car ownership
- household activity and travel surveys
- population and employment data.
The first theme released is a summary of the Australian Bureau of Statistics’ journey to work data for 1996, 2001 and 2006. This theme includes:
- origins and destinations of work journeys
- methods of travel to work
- employment and occupation types.
The atlas has data presented for each Victorian local government area.
It will be updated in early 2013 as more data becomes available .
