Australia is set to grow by more than 14 million citizens by 2050
As the Australian population grows by a further 14 million people over the coming decades we face a simple choice: either develop new, vibrant and better-connected cities or face the burden of the populations of both Sydney and Melbourne doubling by 2050.
We will build compact, sustainable, smart-cities connected via high speed rail
CLARA’s privately-funded plan will address the widely recognised issue of over-crowding that faces Sydney and Melbourne. We will build new regional, compact, sustainable, smart-cities and connect them by most advanced high speed rail.
This is a completely comprehensive plan for population management and economic transition for Australia.
CLARA has land under its legal control upon which to build its new regional cities. CLARA can truly capture the value from the land uplift and apply it paying for the high speed rail link.
Because CLARA has the land for new cities development our business model projects a commercially viable project that should not call on taxpayer funding.
CLARA’s pre-feasibility business model has the city sites and rail infrastructure being privately funded through the use of land value capture.
Unlike other proposals for high speed rail in the past, CLARA’s infrastructure can be paid for from the city development rather than from government coffers.
