BATHURST

WHAT IS BATHURST KNOWN FOR?

Ironically, this normally beautiful and peaceful little country town is known for car racing. Every year, the famous Liqui - Moly 12 Hour car race takes place on Mount Panorama and this usually quiet town suddenly becomes as crowded as Sydney. Of Course, car racing isn’t Bathurst’s only claim to fame, Bathurst has a long rich history with gold mining, the first gold ever discovered in Australia was discovered in Bathurst, the gold rush which took place between the 1850′s and the 1870′s transformed this small provincial town into a major regional centre.

GETTING THERE AND AWAY

AIR Bathurst has a small regional airport. Pelican Airlines do daily direct flights from Sydney to Bathurst, however this is the most expensive way to travel to Bathurst from Sydney. Pelican Airlines Operates direct flight Between Sydney Airport Terminal T2 and Bathurst with two return flights per day Monday To Friday and 1 return flight on Sunday.

CAR Car is the easiest and most convenient way to get to and from Bathurst.

TRAIN The “Bathurst Bullet” train service link Sydney with Bathurst daily.Daily NSW Trainlink Services from Sydney To Lithgow with coach connections to Bathurst are also avaliable. Bathurst Bullet The Bathurst Bullet departs Bathurst Station at 7:35AM and returns earlier in the afternoon, departing Sydney at 3:05PM and arriving in Bathurst at 6:47PM. There are variations to this schedule on Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays to allow for existing Indian Pacific and Intercity services.

GETTING AROUND

The easiest way to get around Bathurst is by car, While Uber does exist, it can be difficult at times to get one as they are not as common as they are in big cities like Sydney and Melbourne. Bathurst Taxis are another option if you do not have a car but you will have to call for them as taxi’s are not something that you will see frequently whilst walking around Bathurst. There is a Bus company in Bathurst, Bathurst Buslines check the website for more information and for bus routes.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

OPENING HOURS Most businesses in Bathurst are closed on Sundays. Cafes typically open at 7:00AM and close at 3:00PM while restaurants tend to open and close a bit later than this typically around 5:00PM to 9:00PM. Shops usually open at 10:00Am and close at 5:00PM. On or around public holidays such as Christmas and New Year, you can expect most businesses to be closed.

ROAD SAFETY Kangaroos are abundant in Bathurst, unfortunately, that also means that the chance of a collision with one whilst driving is higher than it is in Sydney particularly at night. Drive extra cautiously, especially around areas like Mount Panorama and further out away from the CBD.

What You Should Know About Melbourne Airport Parking Rates

Melbourne airport parking is available in a variety of different styles and price ranges. The various types of Melbourne airport parking are: flat rate, off-site parking, public terminal, reserved, and industrial park. Depending on your preferences and travel needs, the appropriate parking option may be determined. If you are returning from a trip to Australia, most airports offer shuttle buses and even taxi services to and from the airport. It is recommended to call ahead if you will need airport parking services to enjoy easy, hassle-free travel to and from the airport.

A flat rate Melbourne airport parking includes a set number of spaces that can be accessed in one day. This option is often an economical and convenient option for many travelers. You can pay a single time fee or pay a daily rate. Most of the flat rate parking facilities allow you to choose from different hours of access, which allows you to arrive and leave with minimal fuss. Some of the most popular flat rate parking facilities include Westgate Plaza, Argyll Park, Flinders Street, and Melton Avenue.

Off-site parking lots provide additional flexibility for those looking to park their vehicles temporarily. These Melbourne airport parking rates are often cheaper than the flat rate lots, as these parking facilities are not staffed on a regular basis. These lots are great for individuals and families who will need temporary access to their vehicle. While these lots are cheaper than the other options, they are also not as secure, as all vehicles must be checked and identified before leaving the lot.

Public terminal parking lots are usually among the most expensive Melbourne parking facilities. These parking rates are based on the date and time you choose to enter the facility. Generally, these parking rates are extremely high for short term parking, as the majority of patrons coming into the terminal do not have any plans for the evening. The high demand for parking does not cover the number of people who enter the park on a daily basis, so it becomes extremely difficult to find parking when there are so many people. To combat this problem, the majority of off-airport parking providers offer a 'Pay by Day' or 'Pay by Stay' policy, allowing patrons to pay for parking on the days they choose, rather than waiting until their parking slot opens.

Melbourne car parks are located all over the city, but the largest in terms of number is located in the inner suburbs of Melbourne. This means that, although Melvilles suburbs are well serviced by public transport, finding a parking space can prove to be a challenge. However, most of the public car parks in Melbourne are located within walking distance of the airport, which allows patrons to get into the city on foot and avoid the need to use taxi cabs. However, the vast majority of melvilles car parks are located outside of the CBD. This means that, if you are planning on arriving at the airport in a vehicle, you will have to drive yourself, which can be an issue for some.

There are a number of businesses around the airport that specialise in providing pre-arranged parking for those with disabilities. Most of these businesses have flexible contracts with various parking providers and can offer a choice of flexible parking fees, which can help patrons plan their vacation accordingly. Some of the larger facilities also have separate entrance gates, which means that people with disabilities can enter the terminals without having to wait in a queue.

"[It's very much] a freeway for people riding their bikes each day in and out of the city," Roads Minister Luke Donnellan said. Those seeking a more relaxed journey can still take the existing bike path along Footscray Road, which will be widened and upgraded. The veloway will begin around Shepherd Bridge in Footscray. As part of that $5.5 billion in road spending, the government has pledged to build almost 14 kilometres of upgraded cycling routes and footpath, completing missing links in the Federation Trail and the Kororoit Creek Trail. The work will mean that people will be able to cycle into the CBD from Werribee without having to intermingle with cars or trucks, the government said. A new bridge over Whitehall Street next to Yarraville Gardens will allow cyclists and pedestrians to avoid the dangerous intersection of Somerville Road and Whitehall Street. Last month Moonee Ponds mother-of-two Arzu Baglar, 36, was struck and killed by a truck while cycling through the junction. A bicycle bridge will also be built over Footscray Road near Costco in Docklands. The cycle upgrades and veloway were welcomed by Bicycle Network spokesman Garry Brennan.

Pre-Booking Parking: A Smart Solution for Stress-Free Travel

Parking can be one of the most frustrating aspects of commuting, attending events, or exploring busy city centers. The search for an available spot, high prices, and the uncertainty of finding convenient parking can turn an otherwise smooth trip into a stressful experience. Pre-booking parking has emerged as a smart, efficient solution to these challenges, allowing drivers to secure parking spaces in advance at affordable rates.

Whether you’re heading to a city for business, attending a concert, or catching a flight, pre-booking parking can save you time, money, and hassle. In this article, we’ll explore the benefits of pre-booking parking Melbourne, how it works, and tips for getting the best deals.

1. How Pre-Booking Parking Works

Pre-booking parking is a straightforward process that allows you to reserve a parking space before you arrive at your destination. Many parking operators, airports, event venues, and online platforms now offer pre-booking services to simplify the parking experience.

Steps to Pre-Book Parking:

Search for Parking: Use a parking provider’s website or app to search for available parking spaces near your destination. You can filter by date, time, and location.

Compare Prices and Amenities: Most platforms offer a range of parking options with different prices, from budget-friendly spots to premium, secure parking with additional services like valet or electric vehicle charging.

Select and Reserve: Once you’ve found a suitable option, reserve your spot by entering your vehicle and payment details. Many platforms offer discounts when you book in advance.

Get Confirmation: After booking, you’ll receive a confirmation email or text message with the booking details, including the address, entry and exit times, and any special instructions for accessing the parking lot.

2. Benefits of Pre-Booking Parking

2.1. Cost Savings

One of the biggest advantages of pre-booking parking is the potential for significant cost savings. Parking operators often offer lower rates to customers who book in advance compared to those who pay upon arrival. Many pre-booking platforms also feature promotions and discounts, allowing you to secure a parking spot at a fraction of the normal price.

For example, airport parking can be notoriously expensive if booked last minute, but pre-booking in advance can slash prices by up to 50%. Similarly, event venues may offer discounted rates for guests who pre-book their parking rather than paying a higher fee on the day of the event.

2.2. Guaranteed Availability

Nothing is more frustrating than arriving at your destination only to find that all nearby parking lots are full. Pre-booking guarantees that you’ll have a space waiting for you, even during peak hours or busy events. This is especially important in high-demand areas such as city centers, airports, or during large events where parking spots can be scarce.

Knowing that your parking is secured in advance gives you peace of mind, allowing you to focus on your journey without the stress of circling around in search of a spot.

2.3. Time Efficiency

Pre-booking parking not only saves you money but also time. Searching for parking can take up valuable minutes, especially in crowded areas or unfamiliar locations. By pre-booking, you can skip the hassle of hunting for an available space and head directly to your reserved spot. This is particularly useful for time-sensitive trips like airport departures, business meetings, or concerts, where delays in finding parking can cause unnecessary stress.

With clear directions provided upon booking, you’ll know exactly where to go, reducing the chances of getting lost or stuck in traffic.

2.4. Convenience and Flexibility

Many pre-booking platforms allow you to choose from a wide range of parking options that suit your specific needs. Whether you prefer covered parking, valet service, or electric vehicle charging stations, pre-booking gives you the flexibility to select a space that meets your preferences.

Moreover, if your plans change, many pre-booking platforms offer the flexibility to modify or cancel your reservation, often with a full refund, depending on the provider’s policy. This gives you more control over your parking arrangements, making your experience more convenient.

4. Tips for Getting the Best Pre-Booking Parking Deals

4.1. Book Early

Just like hotels and flights, the earlier you book your parking, the more likely you are to get a good deal. Parking spaces, especially at airports and event venues, tend to get more expensive as the date approaches.

4.2. Use Discounts and Promotions

Keep an eye out for discount codes or special promotions offered by parking platforms. Signing up for newsletters or using membership programs can often provide you with exclusive deals.

4.3. Compare Options

Don’t settle for the first option you find. Compare prices across multiple platforms and parking providers to ensure you’re getting the best rate. Some platforms even offer price comparison tools to make this process easier.

4.4. Consider Location

While it’s tempting to book the closest parking to your destination, sometimes opting for a spot slightly further away can lead to significant savings. For instance, booking parking a short walk from the city center or a shuttle ride from the airport can reduce costs dramatically.

Final Thoughts

Pre-booking parking is a simple yet effective way to save money, time, and stress when traveling or attending events. By securing a parking space in advance, you can avoid the last-minute scramble for spots, benefit from discounted rates, and ensure a seamless experience from start to finish. Whether you’re commuting daily or heading to a special event, pre-booking parking is a smart choice for hassle-free travel.

clean ur car Adam!!11!

Exercise: Dumpster Drive

Initial Obervations

Remains of Maccas, Chocolate, Tea, Chargrill (Takeout), beans

Remains of different types of waterbottles, coke bottoes and various soft drinks

Coat hangers

This man does not have an amazing diet. Either he is very lacking when it comes to eating alternate, healthier options, or he is a very busy man short on time.

Contacts, Telfast120

This man uses daily contacts, and has hayfeaver. His hayfever is probably seasonal and has been quite serious recently since he has already taken 3 tablets. (You are only supposed to take one a day)

Ralph Lauren Sweater

Assumption: not poor (??)

Christmas Tree Stickers, Screwdriver, Sticky Tap, Bluetack

Myki Card + The Nunnery (Accomodation in Melbourne)

Can tell that he is only visiting Sydney. Probably from Melbourne

Telstra Visitor Card

UNSW Visitor Card

Let's just hack Shit Sticker, various CompSci Stickers

StartCon Pass (Conference for entrepreneurs

The Sunrise Pass (Venture Capital)

Unopened Papers

Mac addapter

owns a mac..

parking tickets and receipts from various places including Gladescille, Kingsford, Sydney CBD

Overall impression.

Adam is a european Tech person who probably lives in Sydney and has visited Melbourne in the past month. This tech person uses a Mac, and probably uses it to present in the talks he attends.

He clearly eats too much fast food and has trouble cleaning out his car. Why does he have so many drink bottles.. Not sure if trying to recycle or super lazy.

Feels like he is on the lazy side.

Seeing his visitor passes, it is hard to deduce whether he is dropping by UNSW or actually works there.

He definitely visits UNSW frequently, but does not seem to live close to Kensington.

Adam also uses contacts and has hayfeaver which is probably mild.

Conclusion

This was a rather tedious exercises. However, the amount of data we can gather from simple things are really quite scary. If I had more time on my hands, I could probably have figured out his particular job and what he did at the conventions.

This exercises challenges our knowledge and opinion of the "data" in which physical evidence can leave behind. Similarly, on the World Wide Web, we leave behind just as much information. However, it is more scary to think that we leave behind so much as much of it is unseen.

When someone has access to many small things, put together, it can provide and leak great amounts of privacy. With this in mind, I should probably be more careful..

On the other hand, I still challange the train of thought. So what if they have this knowledge. Why am I, in particular, going to be targeted, and for what reason?

What is wrong with data collection, if it serves the purpose of product and service improvement and does not identify and single person in particular?

Security. Fun.

Keys to thriving centres in a post-pandemic world

Keys to Thriving Centres in a Post-Pandemic World, Construction Industry Coronavirus Recovery, COVID-19 Buildings Guide

Three Keys to Thriving Centres in a Post-Pandemic World

30 Apr 2021

Rebecca Spencer & Harold Perks

Opportunities for people to connect have been limited since work, school, holidays, and all other usual activities ground to a halt over the past year. Little did we realise that walking down the street, exercising, shopping, or going out to eat (even if alone) involved so many chance interactions with others that benefited our mental health and overall well-being.

For many of us, a severely limited roster of activities has also involved masking up, restricting our usual smiles and chats with friends, neighbours, and acquaintances.

In this new world we are facing, the value and opportunity retail and town centre developments contribute to a wide cross-section of our community to interact, many times a week (and even daily, such as at a regular coffee spot) becomes abundantly clear.

Hames Sharley’s design process for centres and precincts focuses on responding firstly to local and the broader context, socially and physically. We then layer the considerations of maximising the built form potential with what the customer base needs and wants, together with owner/operator aspirations. This approach involves inputs, iterations and design reviews with professionals across our research and analysis, planning, interior design and architecture portfolios. We work nationally to address challenges and devise solutions for our clients. For example, Director Harold Perks in Hames Sharley’s Melbourne studio, collaborates with Strategic Research Planner Rebecca Spencer in Perth within the practice’s Retail and Town Centres Portfolio.

With Hames Sharley’s multi-decade retail design pedigree on a broad spectrum of centres – new and redeveloping – from local to super-regional, it would be easy to lose sight of what creates successful outcomes. But for the team, it begins simply by being passionate and personable.

“Our special ingredient is we love doing what we do and have fun crafting remarkable spaces and places with our in-depth understanding of each community’s nuances and needs,” says Rebecca.

“This enthusiasm and collaboration shines through and is blended with a respect and seriousness about the risks borne by our clients in developing retail-based or mixed-use developments,” Harold reiterates.

Keeping it local

An empty calendar, not a single commitment or activity on the horizon, nothing to juggle and squash into an already busy week – this is a COVID lockdown induced feeling that we have all experienced in the past year. And for many of us, led to a re-organisation and evaluation of our post-pandemic lives. Both social and work patterns altered greatly, with recently released ABS statistics highlighting the large and sustained swing towards working from home. In February 2021, two fifths (41%) of people were working from home at least once a week, while in contrast less than a quarter of us (24%) were doing so, pre-COVID.

This means increased localism with patronage of centres and facilities closer to home now more intensive and frequent, contrasting to our previous dependence on CBD shopping or regional centres, visited in lunch breaks or on our commute. This shift in the importance and greater utilisation of neighbourhood centres may be tempered by a tendency to return to our habit of rushing around from place to place, over-booking ourselves and leaving little time to enjoy local places with the people we know and love.

However, Hames Sharley contends that a thoughtfully designed, locally responsive centre that delights in providing a convenient (often walkable) shopping, services and food & beverage experience, has become the jewel in a neighbourhood’s crown.

Understanding the drivers of our communities

So, we ask ourselves, why this is? A visit to such a place is simple, enjoyable, and, importantly, repeatable. Hames Sharley’s process of highlighting and showcasing the competitive advantages of each site we reimagine or create begins with a thorough investigation. The Urban Development and Retail portfolios undertake in-depth investigations and analysis to fundamentally understand client objectives, drivers and performance indicators.

This foundation permits full understanding and, when appropriate, the ability to challenge assumptions or responses to retail trends. For instance, in its December 2020 report on the impacts of COVID, Infrastructure Australia noted that online-only retailers share price performance last year saw growth in the 300-450% range. In contrast, results for bricks and mortar operators contracted. Further, Australia’s prior downward household waste trends were bucked by a 20% spike during the pandemic. However, we believe that post-vaccination, the human longing for connection through time outside the confines of home, plus a desire to minimise packaging waste from home-delivered takeaways/shopping will diminish this home delivery dominance – with nimble, tailored centres retaining their appeal.

Delivering a ‘third place’

Thirdly, in denser urban environments and a society where more people are living alone, in smaller family units or where home has also morphed into their workplace, centres are increasingly performing a ‘third place’ role. This means a pivot in thinking, challenging a purely transactional role of centres, encouraging a welcoming public realm alongside commercialised spaces. Hames Sharley’s recent work of the Mezz Shopping Cnetre in Mount Hawthorn, is a prime example of a redevelopment outcome that delivers a third place, that is exceptional by being true to local lifestyles and needs, and to local character.

“The reimagining of a car park/laneway to the rear of The Mezz extended the retail environment, opened up internalised spaces, blended it with public space, better linked with the parking and the best part is it has been welcomed and extensively enjoyed by the locals,” says Harold.

“It makes the spaces between work harder, extends the length of a typical shopping visit by offering a comfortable, identifiable place to meet and relax. Hames Sharley believes these sorts of moves towards inclusive designs that welcome all and generate community buy in, are also leading to better asset performance for clients.”

The appeal of The Mezz to its inhabitants and visitors is centred on a strong food culture, an honest use and adaption of the built fabric, a strong community focus and creative spirit.

The Mezz was programmed to cater to diverse demographics along its length. This meant kid’s play and vegetable gardens at one end (through a mixed-zone for families and parents) and a licensed seating area, serving alcohol for younger adults and couples down the other.

“The contextual appropriateness of the design has encouraged visitation back into Mt Hawthorn,” states Harold.

Hames Sharley believes these sorts of moves towards inclusive designs that welcome all and generate community buy-in also lead to better asset performance outcomes for clients.

Easily accessible and locally resonant centres that promoted multiple visits per week shone through over the last 12 months. This expedient approach is nothing new, though it is becoming a more evident pillar of robustness for retail-based assets moving forward. Convenience, public places, and meaningful human connection opportunities represent three of the most important keys to a thriving, successful centre, that reflects the uniqueness of its customers and supports its community.

Hames Sharley takes pride in revitalising and extending centres to meet and exceed client’s expectations – the passion and commitment we demonstrate and fun we have along the way are bonuses.

Outrage as sprinklers water lawns in Melbourne’s Queen Victoria gardens despite the city being battered with flash flooding

Commuters were left shocked this morning when they noticed the sprinklers in one of Melbourne’s biggest parks had been turned on despite the city experiencing 17mm of rain fall over night. The grass in Queen Victoria gardens had soaked up an historic down pour over night but the parks sprinkler system still showed up for work the next morning, giving the gardens an extra soaking.

3AW listener Michelle sent the station a picture of the sprinklers watering the already wet grass.

Over social media people debated if the sprinklers were automated or if someone ‘had too much time on their hands.’

‘Maybe the local council is still asking its people to shower with a friend so they can afford to use sprinklers regardless of the weather?!’ one wrote.

‘Lol……rain rain go away…’ wrote another user.

‘Automatic timers can’t tell the weather. So s*** happens’ added another.

A spokesperson for the The City of Melbourne told Daily Mail Australia that the sprinklers turned on due to a malfunction.

‘The City of Melbourne carries out irrigation audits, including turning on sprinkler systems, throughout winter. This ensures the irrigation systems are working efficiently and do not lay dormant prior to the peak watering season,’ they said.

‘The electronically controlled sprinkler system at Queen Victoria Gardens was turned on this morning due to a system malfunction.’

‘As a result of the malfunction this sprinkler station was activated at 7:20am. The water ran for approximately 16 minutes before being shut off.’

‘The City of Melbourne is dedicated to reducing water consumption across the municipality, since 2014 we’ve irrigated our parks and gardens using up to 25 per cent non-potable, alternative water sources including rainwater and stormwater.’

During the night flooding created chaos as the cities traffic navigated the hazardous conditions.

Two people were killed in separate crashes over night.

A motorcyclist hit a tree on the median strip of the Princes Highway at Oakleigh East.

Meanwhile, a man stepped in front of a truck, killing himself and creating a chain of events that left another motorist with serious injuries on the Monash Freeway.

Damaging winds with gusts in excess of 120 kilometres an hour continue to lash parts of the state.

Wind gusts of up to 120km/h (Mount William) have been recorded in Victoria, with 65km/h winds (Tullamarine and St Kilda) in the metropolitan area.

And there’s more to come, with Friday expected to be Melbourne’s wettest May day in six years.

The wild weather is created by a low-pressure system bringing wind, snow and low temperatures to most of south-east Australia.

Hobart also suffered a months’ worth of rain as the arctic blast swept across the country.

Cars floated down streets in the CBD, properties were evacuated and 13,000 homes were left without power as flash flooding hit the city following the record rain fall.

Hobart city recorded more than 100 millimetres of rain in a single day for the first time ever in May — doubling the previous record.

Around 13,000 homes were left without power overnight and evacuation centres have been set up across the city.

Canberra is expecting it’s coldest day in the first half of may in 48 years, with a chilling 9C predicted for the city.

Sydney also shivered through its first taste of winter on Thursday night, waking to temperatures of around 8C.

And in Brisbane the temperature is predicted to be a minimum of 9C over the weekend which is the lowest for this time of year since 2015.

Daily Mail Australia has contacted Melbourne city for comment.
