'Shaping Up' — a project of the South East Queensland Integrated Regional Transport Plan shaping urban communities to support public transport, cycling and walking in Queensland.
Shaping Up provides the ideas and opportunities to design our communities better.
These guidelines emphasise the need for land use and development decisions to build on and support the existing transport system. They also emphasise the importance of making public transport, walking and cycling more competitive with car travel. The guidelines show how land use and transport planning can be integrated to meet the major travel and environmental challenges ahead. Better designed neighbourhoods will offer the lifestyle benefits of reduced car dependency and increased access to local activities.

Both land use and transport planning have a major influence on where and how people travel.
'Shaping Up' is a guide to developing urban areas to reduce the overall reliance on the private car and its detrimental effects on the environment. It outlines ways in which land use and transport
planning and urban design can reduce both the number and length of trips. It also shows how land use planning and urban design can support other more environmentally friendly ways of travel such as walking, cycling and the use of public transport.
