Moonee Ponds Creek沿岸区域规划草案

Moonee Ponds Creek沿岸区域规划草案是由McGregor Coxall设计团队、Wave咨询公司、墨尔本市政以及城市规划部门（Victorian Planning Authority，简称 VPA）共同合作的项目。设计团队将Moonee Ponds Creek作为研究对象重新进行规划，旨在将其打造为蓬勃发展的开放走廊，为多种生命形式提供保障，同时提高城市的恢复力、适应力和宜居程度。

In collaboration with Wave consulting, the City of Melbourne and the Victorian Planning Authority, McGregor Coxall led an investigation to reimagine Moonee Ponds Creek as a thriving open space corridor supporting a diversity of life forms, fundamental to the strength, resilience and liveability of the city.

到2040年，墨尔本市的人口预计将会增加一倍。随着城市高速发展，生态环境的基础建设对于缓解城市压力以及为社区提供舒适的生活尤为重要。 Moonee Ponds Creek沿岸区域规划草案是站在公民的角度对城市更新的研究，倡导有利于环境可持续化的基础设施建设以及Moonee Ponds Creek沿岸公共空间的开发。

By 2040 the City of Melbourne’s population is projected to double. As urban development accelerates, high performance green and blue infrastructure will be critical in alleviating pressure on the city whilst providing amenity for expanding communities. The Moonee Ponds Creek Strategic Opportunities Plan is a civic minded urban renewal study that advocates environmentally sustainable infrastructure and open space initiatives along Melbourne’s most significant creek corridor.

该草案计划整治河流，使其恢复自然状态，从而增加河岸上的社会和生态互动。墨尔本西北部有许多蜿蜒的湿地，每当暴雨来临，池塘中的水便会涌入湍急的河道。随着城市的密集化，池塘逐渐消失，并失去与周围社区的互动。对社区周边生态环境的修复将带来许多新的公园及湿地，改变河流与城市脉络分离的现状。

The vision encourages social and ecological interaction with the foreshore through creek naturalisation. Northwest Melbourne was once characterised by winding wetlands that would swell into fast flowing watercourses during heavy rain. As the city densified the ponds were replaced and disengaged from surrounding communities. Permeating surrounding communities these restored ecological systems will provide a chain of parks and wetlands, transforming the existing dead space that currently separates the creek from the urban fabric of the city.

该草案将设计与政策相结合，旨在改善人们与水的关系和观念。这份提议是为了促使墨尔本市政府和城市规划部门能够进一步提出统一战略，发展为商业化项目并随着时间的推进而不断调整完善。

Integrating design and policy, the opportunities plan seeks to change our relationship and perception of water. As an advocacy document it is the first step in enabling the City of Melbourne and VPA to present a unified strategic vision that can be developed into a business case and deployed over time.

该项目区域从Brunswick路延伸至Docklands，以新的对话模式与土地所有者和利益相关者沟通，以促进未来的发展。墨尔本市政对最近开展的有关公共展览和咨询起到监督的职责。该项目的下一阶段将会由城市规划部门制定具体的实施方案。城市规划部门现将会评估高优先级地区的成本预算，并在下半年发布。

Stretching from Brunswick Road to Docklands the study creates an innovative framework to open dialogue with land owners and key stakeholders to guide future development. The City of Melbourne oversaw the recently concluded public exhibition and consultation period. The next stage in the project will be to develop an implementation plan which is to be led by the Victoria Planning Authority. The VPA will now evaluate costing for high priority areas with recommendations anticipated later in the year.

简要说明 | Snapshot

将Moonee Ponds Creek打造为蓬勃发展的开放走廊，从而提高城市的适应性和宜居程度，规划草案主要体现为六个目标： •水域管理：适应极端天气，有自我修复力的河流 •开放空间：可以满足城市不断增长需求的多元化网络 •生物多样性：健康的水道和充满生机的生态系统 •互动：高度可达，与人群连接的生态走廊 •历史与文化：值得赞扬的过去和对未来的共同愿景 •协作治理：倡导转型改革

Guided by the vision of Moonee Ponds Creek as a thriving creek corridor that supports the liveability and resilience of the city, the strategic opportunities are a manifestation of six key goals: • Water Management: A resilient creek adapted to extreme weather events • Open Space: A diverse network to support the growing needs of the city • Biodiversity: A healthy waterway and thriving ecosystem • Movement: A highly accessible and connected creek corridor • History & Culture: A celebrated past and shared vision for the future • Collaborative Governance: Advocacy for transformational change

项目负责人，Christian Borchert表示：“该草案将水域设计和管理向结合，旨在改变我们与水的关系和观念。它阐释了我们在面对洪水侵袭的同时，如何通过土地用途转型，水域协作治理以及动态解决方案制定等措施，将河流转变为更具适应力和可持续性的生态走廊。”

Project Director, Christian Borchert: “As an integrated water design and management plan, the vision seeks to change our relationship and perception of water. The plan looks at how we accept inherent challenges such as flooding, to transform the creek into a more resilient and sustainable corridor through alternative land use, catchment-wide collaborative governance and dynamic design solutions.”

墨尔本市政议员Cathy Oke，环境组委会主席表示：“Moonee Ponds Creek的下游将成为大墨尔本地区最发达的地段之一。我们将该草案作为一种宣传方式，将社区和这条河流重新连接。它阐述了如何增加生物多样性，减轻洪水影响，创造新自行车道等娱乐空间的想法。多年来，Moonee Ponds Creek受到工业及基础设施的负面影响。该草案设定了修复河流的愿景，并倡导一系列项目计划的实施，以提高其生态、经济及娱乐价值。”

City of Melbourne Councillor Cathy Oke, Chair of the Environment portfolio: “The lower reaches of Moonee Ponds Creek are set to become some of the most intensely developed parts of Greater Melbourne. We’re considering this plan as an advocacy tool to reconnect the community to this vital waterway. The plan outlines ideas for increased biodiversity, mitigating the impacts of flooding, creating new bike paths and more space for recreation. Moonee Ponds Creek has been negatively impacted over many years by industry and infrastructure. This plan sets a vision to rehabilitate the creek and advocate for the delivery of a series of projects to increase its ecological, economic and recreational value.”
