Abstract

Major rail infrastructure projects have potential to generate economic benefits beyond conventional transport benefits. The extra benefits include improved value of urban realm, arising from place-making and precinct activation initiatives as part of the project scope. A lack of economic parameter values hinders the inclusion of such benefits in economic appraisals. This talk presents a methodology designed to estimate the Willingness-to-Pay for key place-making attributes and showcases an application in Sydney, Australia.
