How to design more inclusive cities | Interview with Sue Boyce

In Australia, more than 4.4 million people live with some form of disability. That's roughly 1 in 5 people. Often there is a stereotypical depict that a 'disability' is something more permanent or severe, such as blindness or wheelchair use. But a disability isn't necessarily something that is long-term. Quite often, you or someone you know has suffered an illness or an injury that impacts the ability to move freely and independently. Whether that be temporary use of crutches while navigating a busy train station, a cast for a broken arm that makes it difficult for you to stand on a bus, or anything that changes the way you interact with the city around you. On this episode, we sat down with Sue Boyce, the CEO of Ability Works Australia to discuss some of the challenges faced by people that live with disabilities in their daily lives. Everything to the accessibility options in a doctors office that impact your healthcare choices, whether the width of a tram station can actually acc…

In this episode you'll learn about: * The dangers of relying on averages * How big data amplifies confirmation bias * Misconceptions around electric vehicles

Solving real problems, for real people, in real places | Interview with Rachel Smith

Transport has a marketing problem. Often we way we approach behavioural change is through fear, stressing the environmental consequences, or the health benefits of leaving the car at home in favour of a bike or public transport. But what if we were going about this the wrong way? On this episode, Emily chats with Rachel Smith - Transport and urban planner, author, and 2x TEDx talk speaker - to discuss congestion and the concept of cycling super highways. Rachel discusses the need for transport planners to look at how we communicate congestion and frame our problems as solutions so they are relatable to the people they impact the most. In particular, she discusses how transport could learn a thing or two from good marketing, never underestimating personal connections and incentives, and the importance of agile solution-oriented thinking.

The advent of new technology has opened the floodgates for people working within Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) and general public alike.

Is more effective driver training the key to reducing road fatalities? | Interview with Gene Corbett

Driver training is a fairly overlooked and unregulated process. Many of us first learn to driver from our parents or guardians for a majority of the mandated hours under government L-plate schemes; but does the ability to drive automatically give you the ability to teach and pass on good driving behaviours? Not necessarily. In this episode we sit down with Gene Corbett, the Managing Director of Total Driver Australia, to discuss how driver training - for drivers and driving instructors alike - can be a preventative force in the fight against road fatalities. With over 15 years experience under his belt, Gene walks us through something called 'the default', the importance of practical behavioural changes even before a driver steps in the car, and how such changes to the way we teach drivers behind a wheel can decrease crash rates in some of our most vulnerable. Total drivers website: www.totaldriver.com.au

A culture of innovation: making cities safer and more user friendly | Interview with Dave Jones

Often when we consider innovations across transport, we think of AI, automation, and Big Data. But what if there are much simpler solutions that are right under our noses? Often we neglect to think about how we can augmented the infrastructure we've already got - improve road friction, or even the user experience of a pedestrian crossing. On this episode, we chat with Dave Jones, External Affairs Director for Smarterlite Group - dedicated to making our roads, buildings, and infrastructure better, safer, and greener - about how something as small as improving the friction on our roads can decrease crash factors by up to 40%. Dave, who has over 25 years experience across public and private businesses in transport, is a strong advocate for spearheading a culture of innovation within government bodies and transport in general, and for improving the user experience of the built environment. Fostering a culture of innovation within transport and infrastructure benefits all road and roa…

The role of micro-mobility and shared mobility in the built environment | Interview with Monica Zarafu

Did you know that the term 'micro-mobility' didn't even exist until around 2012? Or that it was thought to be first used by a Romanian visionary, Horace Dediu? Neither did we until this week! Emily sits down with Monica Zarafu, the managing director of BYKKO to talk about mobility and micro-mobility in the built environment. In a world where one of the biggest fears we install in our children from a young age is a fear of cars, what might the future look like if we invest more into shared mobility infrastructure? BYKKO's Website: https://bykko.com.au/

Gender diversity in the transport industry | Interview with Lauren Bourke

Did you know that women only make up 16.9% of all roles in the transport sector? That includes all drivers, admin, and office roles. It's no secret that the transport industry has long been dominated by men. New data is helping shed light on the severity of the imbalance we are facing, and the tangible benefits to a business' bottom line of addressing it. In celebration of NSW Womens Week (8th -14th March, 2021) Emily sat down with Lauren Bourke, the National Transport Manager at Randstad, to discuss the findings of their December 2020 Women in Transport report, detail practical advice for businesses to increase gender diversity, and the misconceptions surrounding women-at-work.
