Extracting Value from the Circular Economy
PROUD SPONSOR
The circular economy promises to exchange the typical cycle of
make-use-dispose for a more sustainable make-reuse paradigm. The idea is
the longer materials are in use, the more value is extracted from them.
But what value is there for local governments, and do they outweigh the
costs?

Does the 'Smart City' Exist?
PROUD SPONSORS
Waves of Federal funding once heralded the arrival of the illusive Smart City, but what have been the outcomes? We revisit the concept and execution to find out if these have delivered, if they can still be funded, and whether smart outcomes can be achieved at a smarter price.

Rethinking Transport Safety
PROUD SPONSOR
Transport safety is typically considered foremostly an infrastructure issue. While not only blurring the line between Federal, State, and Local responsibility, this also makes its provision a costly line item in any budget. We take a closer look at what leads to accidents across more than just roads to find out where innovative practice and even behavioural psychology can solve problems.

Future of Transport
Not just blue-sky thinking, this 'Future of' session takes on the impending reality of new transport systems that are currently being tested and implemented and how they fit into current council plans. From trackless trams to autonomous vehicles, we explore what is coming and how these will be resourced, whether for the smallest regional councils or the biggest metros.

Freight and Heavy Vehicles
Local roads are a critical part of local, regional, state, and national transport networks. With increased demand however, many of these roads are no longer fit-for-purpose. Additional targeted investment is needed to unlock local and regional productivity by improving access for freight vehicles and connectivity between local roads and preferred state and national freight routes. But what does this mean for your council, the strategic direction of your organisation, and liveability for your community?
