Abstract: This paper briefly reviews the existing Australian situation in respect of urban person and freight transport. It identifies those aspects likely to be sensitive to structural economic change and related changes. The extent of such sensitivity is discussed using such empirical evidence as is available. In particular the paper examines the possible effects on urban transport of such factors as changes in the demographic structure, changes in energy, institutional and political change, and technological change, as well as structural economic change.
