The proposed Twin Cities Eco-Park in Albury-Wodonga, supported by the city government and aligned with the development of the high-speed rail (HSR), should be strategically located to maximize its environmental, economic, and social benefits. Based on urban planning principles and regional characteristics, here are some key considerations for its site selection:
Ideal Location for the Eco-Park
-
- Proximity to High-Speed Rail Station
-
- The Eco-Park should be located near the proposed high-speed rail station, which is expected to be approximately 20km from Wodongaās centre. This would provide:
-
- Easy access for visitors arriving via HSR.
-
- Integration with transit-oriented development (TOD) strategies to promote sustainable urban growth[2][4][6].
-
- Integration with Existing Green Spaces
-
- Areas like Wonga Wetlands, Mungabareena Reserve, or land near the Murray River could be ideal due to their existing natural ecosystems. These locations can:
-
- Enhance biodiversity by connecting green corridors.
-
- Serve as a hub for eco-tourism and community recreation[1][3].
-
- Vacant or Underutilized Land
-
- The park could be developed on underutilized land near industrial zones such as Logic Wodonga or along the Hume Freeway corridor. This would:
-
- Reclaim degraded land for public use.
-
- Act as a buffer zone between industrial and residential areas[5].
Key Features of the Eco-Park
-
- Sustainability-Focused Design
Incorporate renewable energy sources (e.g., solar panels) and water management systems (e.g., rainwater harvesting).
Use native vegetation to minimize maintenance and support local wildlife habitats[1][3].
- Sustainability-Focused Design
-
- Connectivity and Accessibility
Create networks of walking and cycling paths linking the Eco-Park to urban centres, residential areas, and other green spaces.
Include public transport options to reduce car dependency[1][6].
- Connectivity and Accessibility
-
- Community and Cultural Spaces
Design spaces for outdoor events, cultural exhibitions, and educational programs on sustainability.
Include Aboriginal cultural elements to honor the regionās Indigenous heritage[1][7].
- Community and Cultural Spaces
-
- Economic Opportunities
Promote eco-tourism by integrating cafes, markets, and eco-friendly accommodations.
Attract private investment through partnerships with local businesses[4][6].
- Economic Opportunities
Benefits of the Proposed Location
-
- By situating the Eco-Park near the high-speed rail station and integrating it with existing green spaces, Albury-Wodonga can position itself as a leader in sustainable urban development.
-
- The park will enhance regional livability while supporting population growth driven by HSR connectivity.
