Canberra - Canberra

Canberra is gebou om die hoofstad van Australië in die Australiese hoofstadgebied in die suidooste van Nieu-Suid-Wallis. 'N Beplande stad met nasionale monumente, museums en galerye, gebou rondom groot mensgemaakte mere. Die boshoofstad - Canberra is ook 'n uitstekende plek om in die buitelug te geniet, met uitstekende fietsry, tuine, parke, boswandel en natuurreservate.

Geskiedenis

Die vereiste vir die bou van 'n Australiese hoofstad word in 1901 in die Australiese grondwet gespesifiseer, en sewe jaar later is die terrein vir wat Canberra sou word, gestig. 'N Ontwerpkompetisie is in 1911 vir die stad gehou wat in 1912 deur die Chicago-argitek Walter Burley Griffin gewen is. Die naam "Canberra" is in 1913 amptelik gemaak. Baie van Griffin se plan is egter nie deurgaans tydens sy leeftyd deurgevoer nie na die Groot Oorlog, die Groot Depressie en konflik tussen Griffin en die kommissie wat die taak gehad het om sy idees te implementeer. Om net twee voorbeelde te gee, was Lake Burley Griffin deel van sy oorspronklike ontwerp, maar dit is eers in die 1960's geïmplementeer, byna drie dekades na sy dood, en die tremsisteem wat Griffin oorspronklik in die vooruitsig gestel het, het 'n eeu geneem om selfs die eerste lyn in diens te neem.

Hierdie Australiese hoofstadgebied is geskep uit land binne Nieu-Suid-Wallis, en oorspronklik regeer deur die Federale Regering. In 1988 het die federale regering die gebied 'verantwoordelike regering' (oftewel 'tuisregering') toegestaan, en die eerste plaaslike verkiesing is in 1989 gehou met partye wat gekant was teen die idee van 'n plaaslike regering vir die Capital Territory wat aansienlike steun gekry het. Politiek was die plaaslike wetgewende vergadering dikwels 'n 'opgehangde parlement' met nie regse liberale of linkse Arbeid wat op hul eie kon regeer nie, maar die amp van hoofminister word meestal deur die Arbeidersparty beklee.

Canberra is 'n baie beplande stad, waarvan die primêre ontwerp bedink is deur die Amerikaanse argitek Walter Burley Griffin, gebou aan die oewer van 'n mensgemaakte meer (Burley Griffin-meer). Aanvanklik bevolk deur politici en staatsamptenare, het dit tyd geneem om sy eie identiteit en kultuur te ontwikkel. Die uitgebreide bou van nasionale fasiliteite en museums het dit 'n unieke bestemming gemaak.

Die beplande skepping van hierdie nuwe stad was nie sonder kritici nie - sinici het gesê dat dit 'n "vermorsing van 'n goeie skaapweiding" was. Nie anders as nie Brasilia of ander "beplande hoofstede", het Canberra se ontwerp dikwels gebots met die behoeftes van sy werklike inwoners, en die ietwat ongemaklike ligging wat as politieke kompromis gekies is (en om die binneland te ontwikkel) het dit 'n bietjie buite die gebaande toeristepad geplaas.

Aardrykskunde

Lugballonne wat oor die parlementêre driehoek vlieg

Lake Burley Griffin verdeel die sentrale Canberra. Die sentrale winkel- en handelsgebied, bekend as "Civic", aan die noordekant en die parlementêre driehoek en ambassade is aan die suidekant. Nasionale instellings is ook verdeeld, byvoorbeeld die National Museum of Australia en die Australiese Oorlogsmonument aan die noordekant en die National Library and National Gallery of Australia aan die suidekant.

Daar is voorstede rondom sentraal Canberra, en ook voorstede rondom verskeie afgeleë middestede. Hierdie middedorpe is Belconnen en Gungahlin in die noorde, en Molonglo-vallei, Tuggeranong en Woden in die suide. Die ACT het ook omliggende dorpe, soos Murrumbateman, wat spog met 'n sterk koel klimaat-wynkeuse. Die historiese dorpies Hall en Tharwa is ook aan die buitewyke van Canberra.

Mense

Baie mense wat in Canberra woon, het daarheen verhuis om by die Australiese regering te studeer of hul werk te doen. 'N Algemene patroon is dat mense van ander dele van Australië na Canberra verhuis, vir 'n paar jaar studeer of werk en dan na hul plek van herkoms terugkeer of na elders gaan. Aangesien dit 'n konstante toestroom van nuwe aankomelinge na Canberra beteken, moet u nie huiwerig wees om aanwysings en dies meer van die plaaslike bevolking te vra nie - hulle is meer as gewoond daaraan en help gewoonlik net te graag. In 2019 was daar 'n bevolking van 427,000 mense in die stad.

Klimaat

Alhoewel Canberra 'n reputasie het as 'n koue stad, kan dit gedurende die somermaande net so warm word as elders in Australië, met 'n temperatuur van meer as 30 ° C, wat gereeld van Desember tot Maart voorkom. Die winterdae kan bitter koud wees (Junie-Augustus) as gevolg van die stad se hoogte en die nabyheid aan die land Sneeubergte. Oornagtemperature daal gereeld onder die nul en is geneig om gedurende die dag effens bo 10 ° C te beweeg. Dit is egter gewoonlik 'n helder, vinnige verkoue en selde 'n dowwe, klam verkoue. Dit sneeu byna nooit in Canberra nie, want die onder vriesende temperature (snags) val gewoonlik saam met helder lug. Die meeste Canberrans glo dat die beste weer in die laat herfs (middel April tot Mei) is. Lenteweer kan baie wisselvallig wees.

Canberra is minder vogtig as Australiese kusstede. Die warmste dae word dikwels versag deur verwelkoming, afkoeling, bergbriesies, veral teen die einde van die dag, en die temperatuur daal oornag. Bring 'n ligte trui of baadjie saam as u in die somer besoek, want die nagte kan verbasend koel wees. Gelaagde klere, wat aangepas kan word om by die veranderende temperatuur gedurende die dag te pas, is besonder effektief.

Met die vliegtuig

-35.3072149.19081 Canberra-lughawe (CBR ^IATA). Dit bedien die hoofstad van Australië, en baie nabygeleë dorpe oorkant die grens in Nieu-Suid-Wallis.  

Lugdiens wat die lughawe bedien, is Vlieg pelikaan, Qantas, Qatar Airways, Singapore Airlines, en Maagd-Australië met vlugte vanaf:

• Adelaide bedryf deur Qantas en Virgin Australia; tot drie vlugte daagliks.
• Ballina bedryf deur Fly Pelican
• Brisbane-lughawe word bestuur deur Qantas en Virgin Australia, ten minste agt vlugte daagliks.
• Doha Hamad-lughawe bedryf deur Qatar Airways; een vlug daagliks (via Sydney)
• Gouekus bestuur deur Virgin Australia, ses vlugte per week.
• Newcastle bedryf deur Fly Pelican; minstens twee vlugte daagliks.
• Melbourne lughawe bedryf deur Qantas en Virgin Australia; minstens 16 vlugte daagliks.
• Perth-lughawe bedryf deur Qantas; een vlug daagliks.
• Singapore Changi-lughawe bedryf deur Singapore Airlines; een vlug daagliks (vlugte vanaf Singapoer stop in Sydney).
• Sydney-lughawe bedryf deur Qantas en Virgin Australia; minstens 26 vlugte daagliks.

Canberra-lughawe is besig om internasionale verbindings te ontwikkel, met Singapore Airlines wat na die stad vlieg Singapoeren Qatar Airways wat vanaf Doha via Sydney vlieg. Andersins Sydney-lughawe is die naaste poortlughawe met vlugte vanaf baie wêreldwye bestemmings, maar oorweeg dit ook Melbourne as alternatief met makliker terminale oordragte.

Saans buite die vertrekgebied.

Die huidige terminale gebou, wat in 2013 voltooi is, is toegerus met al die versierings van 'n klein moderne lughawe, insluitend vliegtuigbronne vir vliegtuigvlugte en geslote terminale gebiede. Daar is slegs 'n handjievol eetplekke en 'n enkele kiosk in die terminale, met die maaltydopsies duur en van lae gehalte, selfs volgens lughawestandaarde. OTM's en betaaltelefone is aan beide kante van die beveiliging geleë. Qantas en Virgin het hul eie lughawesitkamers binne die terminale, en die wagarea vir internasionale vlugte bied redelike basiese sitkamerstyldienste vir alle passasiers. Om u te vermaak, kan u die terminale en sy terrein aandurf om ses openbare kunsbeelde wat uitgestal word, op te spoor.

Aangesien die Canberra-lughawe redelik nuut en klein is, is die proses van sekuriteit aan die begin van 'n vlug en u bagasie by aankoms gewoonlik vinnig vinnig in vergelyking met die ander lughawes in die hoofstad. Die afhandeling van immigrasie- en doeanekontroles vir internasionale vertrek- en aankomelinge is ook baie vinniger as op groot lughawens.

Huurmotors is beskikbaar vanaf die binnenshuise taxi-ry op die grondvloer en kos $ 25 vir Civic. Tariewe vir Canberra se voorstede kan baie hoër wees, byvoorbeeld minstens $ 50 vir Tuggeranong of Belconnen.

Ridesharing-diens Uber bedryf in Canberra en is gewoonlik goedkoper as taxi's. Die Canberra-lughawe het 'n toegewyde wagkamer vir passasiers, 20 meter vanaf die uitgang op die grondvloer van die aankomssaal.

Die Canberra-lughawe is met 'n openbare bus met Civic verbind roete R3. Dienste arriveer en vertrek elke 15 minute of minder gedurende weeksdae van buite die bagasie-eisgebied op die grondvloer van die lughawe, en naweke 30 minute. Die roete word bedien met standaard ACTION-busse, wat nie bagasierakke vir groot tasse insluit nie, maar die meeste het plek vir mediumgroot tasse naby die bestuurder, en die busse is selde druk. Een tarief vir volwassenes tussen Civic en die lughawe is $ 4,90 per reis, of minder as u 'n MyWay-kaart gebruik.

Die Royale Group bestuur ook 'n shuttle wat $ 10 eenpad van / na Civic kos. Die frekwensie is 30-60 minute, die rit duur 20-30 minute en dit is daagliks van 07:00 tot 18:00 (minder in die naweek).

Verskeie motorhuurdienste het kiosks in die aankomssaal. Internasionaal bekende en betroubare maatskappye soos Budget Motorhuur, Spaarsaam, Hertz, RedSpot, Avis en Europcar is beskikbaar. As u motorhuur terugbesorg, is daar 'n Caltex-vulstasie aangrensend aan die terminale.

Dit is moontlik om die off-road fietswegnetwerk van Canberra te gebruik om die lughawe te bereik. Volg die fietspad langs die noordekant van die meer. 'N Gedeelte fietspad loop langs die Molonglo-rivier onder die Monaro-snelwegbrug; dit draai links en gaan onder die Pialligolaan-brûe deur. Draai regs, steek die spruit oor (pasop vir die gruisoppervlak op hierdie stadium), steek oor Fairbairnlaan, gebruik die lughawedienspad deur die lughawe en ry na die terminale. Die ACTION-openbare bus vervoer ook fietse op die voorste rakke.

Daar is ruim onderdak- en onbedekte parkeerterreine binne loopafstand van die terminale af. Die onbedekte parkeerterrein is goedkoper. Verwag om $ 20-25 per dag te betaal, met spesiale naweek tariewe.

Vir aankomende passasiers wat 'n oplaai verwag, is die oplaaiplek in die naaste onbedekte parkeerterrein, 100 m van die terminale afrit. Privaat motors het 'n periode van tien minute om die gebied binne te gaan en te verlaat. Daar is 'n Caltex-stasie / metro-restaurant met beperkte parkeerplekke waar motors kan wag.

Met die trein

'N NSW TrainLink Xplorer wag op vertrek by die Central Station in Sydney

NSW TrainLink bestuur Xplorer-treindienste vanaf Sydney drie keer per dag na Canberra, en dit duur ongeveer 4 uur en 20 minute vanaf die Sydney Central Station. Ondanks die feit dat dit stadiger is as 'n bus of ry, neem die trein 'n baie skilderagtige roete deur die Suidelike Hooglande en die Molongolo-kloof, in vergelyking met 'n onopwindende snelwegpad. Ekonomie-tariefpryse kos $ 56 in die hoogseisoen (Kersfees- en Nuwejaarsperiode of skoolvakansies) en $ 40 buite die piek, met afslag soms beskikbaar op die laaste oomblik of voorafbesprekings. As u 'n fiets aan boord neem, moet dit geboks word en as bagasie op NSW TrainLink-dienste ingeboek word. Daar is 'n fooi van $ 12,10 per fiets en daar is slegs plek vir drie in elke trein. Sommige dae is dit moontlik om 'n daguitstappie vanaf Sydney te doen en 5-6 uur in Canberra te spandeer.

Die trein eindig om -35.31941149.14932 Canberra-treinstasie in Kingston, 'n voorstad wat suid-oos van die hoofsentrum van Canberra (Civic) geleë is. As u nie genoeg bagasie het nie, is die goedkoopste opsie om een ​​van die plaaslike ACTION-busse te neem wat die stasie bedien. Dit kos $ 4,80 tot Civic (minder as u 'n MyWay-kaart gebruik). Op weeksdae ry busroete R2 elke 15 minute na Civic, met roete R2 elke 30 minute in die naweek. U kan ook 'n taxi vanaf die rang kry, of 'n Uber bespreek. U kan selfs van die stasie na u akkommodasie stap as u aan die suidekant van Lake Burley Griffin tuisgaan, en dit neem 25-30 minute, afhangende van u verblyf.

NSW TrainLink bestuur ook 'n een keer per dag trein / bus tussen Melbourne en Canberra: die bus ry vanaf die sentrum van Canberra (City Bus Interchange) via die Barton Highway, Burley Griffin Way en die Olympic Highway na die stad Cootamundra, waar reisigers oorskakel na die XPT (NSW TrainLink) na Melbourne Southern Cross Station; kaartjies kos $ 91 in die laagste seisoen en $ 107 in die hoogseisoen.

V / lyn bestuur 'n mededingende trein- / busdiens (Canberra Link) tussen Melbourne en Canberra daagliks. Afrigters vertrek vanaf die Jolimont Center-afrigterminal (oorkant die pad van die City Bus-wisselaar). Dienste loop relatief direk via die Barton en Hume snelweë en wissel na die trein by Albury. Kaartjies kos $ 46.

V / Line bedryf ook 'n Canberra-diens om met hul Melbourne-trein te verbind Bairnsdale. Hierdie diens heet Capital Link. Dienste loop twee keer per week (drie keer per week tydens Victoriaanse skoolvakansies). Op Bairnsdale neem 'n padbus jou via Orbost, Cann River en Cooma na Canberra, met stop by Canberra Railway Station (Kingston) en die Jolimont Centre (oorkant die City Bus Interchange). Kaartjies vir hierdie diens kos ook $ 46.

Met die bus

'N Bus by die Jolimont-sentrum

-35.27738149.128863 Jolimont Sentrum is die enigste afrigtersterminal wat Canberra bedien, met alle afrigters wat hier stop, selfs al ry hulle net deur Canberra. Die sentrum is in Civic geleë en het beperkte geriewe, insluitend storte, internettoegang, 'n paar eetplekke en telefone om die toerismesentrum en akkommodasie te bel. As gevolg van sy ligging, is dit net 'n kort entjie se stap na baie hotelle of winkels, en dit is naby die stadsbusstasie, waar alle plaaslike aksiebusse sal ry.

Murrays, ☏ 61 132251, Murrays bedryf daagliks tot 10 sneldienste tussen Sydney (Central Station) en Canberra met ekstra dienste op spitstyd. Hulle is die hoofoperateur op hierdie roete. Diens duur ongeveer 3½ uur. Hulle het altyd $ 15 tariewe beskikbaar op die web, vir vroeë of laat dienste en $ 18 vir sommige ander. Gewilde dienste of op die laaste oomblik bespreek ongeveer $ 35. Die diens is ononderbroke (met sommige dienste via Sydney Internasionale Lughawe). Murrays bedryf ook 'n daaglikse diens vanaf Canberra na Wollongong en Canberra na Narooma. Die afrigters is meer beknop as die treine. Sitplekke is nie toegewys nie, dus dit help om vroeg daar te wees en nie bagasie te hê om onder die bus te gaan nie, want dan kan u eers opklim en u venstersitplek beveilig. Busse vul gereeld tot op hede en kan vertragings ondervind as gevolg van spitsverkeer in en uit Sydney, alhoewel die ononderbroke aard beteken dat hulle bekend is dat hulle 10-15 minute vroeg op 'n goeie lopie aankom.

Windhond-pionier, ☏ 61 131499, 'n busdiens bedryf wat met Murray's meeding. Tariewe blyk $ 15 of $ 36 te wees, dus jy kan gelukkig wees en goedkoop ry. Dit is miskien nie moontlik om die tariewe van $ 15 te kry as u 'n retoer bespreek nie; so ja, moet u waarskynlik elke been afsonderlik bespreek. Hulle bied ook 'n direkte diens aan Melbourne. Greyhound se afrigterdienste sluit soms video-vermaak in. Sommige Greyhound-busse op die Canberra / Sydney-roete het gratis wifi aan boord, maar dit is baie stadig en val soms af. Die windhonddienste kan stop (op versoek van passasiers) op Goulburn en op die lughawe in Sydney; as dit gebeur, kan dit aansienlike ekstra reistyd inhou. Op besige tye bedryf Greyhound soms twee dienste tussen Canberra en Sydney, een wat stop by die lughawe in Sydney en 'n ander nie.

NSW Trainlink bestuur ook daaglikse busse van en na Eden aan die Suidkus, via Bega en Kooma.

V / lyn, ☏ 61 13 61 96. V / Line het twee dienste wat Canberra met Melbourne verbind. Die vinnigste opsie is 'n bus vanaf Canberra na Albury met 'n verbindende trein na Melbourne. Dit duur ongeveer 8 uur. Die meer skilderagtige opsie is om via Melbourne na Melbourne te reis Kooma, Uitverkoping en Bairnsdale. Hierdie verbinding sluit ook aan by 'n trein na Bairnsdale, wat u in staat stel om u reis suidwes verder te ry in die rigting van Melbourne.

Met die motor

Die rit vanaf Sydney na Canberra is 290 km en dit neem ongeveer drie en 'n half uur vanaf die Sydney middestad, minder van die buitenste voorstede in Sydney. Die pad is tweespoorwegagtige, snelwegagtige toestande vanaf Sydney tot Canberra, meestal met 'n snelheidsbeperking van 110 km / h, via die M5-snelweg, Hume en Federal Highways. Daar is drie stelle on-road-dienste op die Hume-snelweg tussen Sydney en die afdraai na die Federal Highway na Canberra, asook baie goed onderhoude en dikwels skilderagtige rusplekke met toilette en piekniektafels wat ideaal is vir 'n piekniek. Neem drankies, want die rusareas het geen water nie, of tenkwater wat nie aanbeveel word om te drink nie. 'N Derde opsie wat u in staat stel om meer van die platteland te sien, is om by een van die klein dorpies in die stad te stop Suidelike Hooglande oppad, wat almal spog met baie kafees en restaurante wat oop is vir ontbyt, middagete en aandete (maar nie 24 uur nie).

Dit is selde om die hele reis tussen Canberra en Sydney te onderneem sonder ten minste een polisie-spoedlokval. Die stad Goulburn, op pad na Canberra, is die opleidingsentrum vir polisiebeamptes in Nieu-Suid-Wallis wat gereeld nuwe rekrute stuur om spoedkontroles op die snelweg uit te voer. Daar is ook 'n aantal vaste spoedlokvalle, wat vooraf aangedui is.

Die rit vanaf Melbourne na Canberra is 650 km en neem dit ongeveer agt uur op die Hume- en Barton-snelweë, weer meestal op tweespoorpaaie. 'N Goeie alternatiewe ryroete gebruik die Monaro snelweg en reis deur interessante terrein in die Sneeubergte.

Kry rond

Canberra is 'n motorgerigte stad met uitstekende paaie, en toeriste wat van Civic en die belangrikste toeriste-aantreklikhede wil reis, is oor die algemeen beter daaraan toe huur van 'n motor as om op die ongereelde, hoewel algemeen betroubare, busdienste te vertrou. 'N Eerste tramlyn van 12 km (7,5 myl) is in 2019 geopen en sal dit hopelik in die toekoms makliker maak om sonder 'n motor oor die weg te kom, maar dit is nog nie duidelik of die netwerk in die 2020's beduidend gaan groei nie.

Met die bus

AKSIE Busse

AKSIE busse dek die meerderheid van Canberra, met minder dienste oor naweke / openbare vakansiedae. Hoewel Canberreans daaroor kraai, is ACTION se dienste oor die algemeen betroubaar en bied dit 'n nuttige verskeidenheid roetes vir toeriste. As u in of naby Civic tuisgaan en van plan is om net die belangrikste toeriste-besoekers te besoek, hoef u nie 'n motor te huur nie.

ACTION-busse is die primêre manier van openbare vervoer om Canberra te gebruik

Tariewe is $ 5 vir volwassenes en $ 2,50 vir konsessies (moet u studente- of konsessiekaart gereed wees om die bestuurder te wys. Vir internasionale studente is dit altyd goed om 'n ISIC-kaart te hê, want baie bestuurders aanvaar dit weliswaar nie streng nie). 'N Heeldagkaartjie kos $ 9,60 vir volwassenes en $ 4,80 vir konsessies.

As u meer as $ 20 aan kaartjies spandeer, oorweeg dit om a te koop My manier gestoorde waardekaart, wat geriefliker is en afslag op reis bied. Waarde kan op die kaart gevoeg word, maar daar is geen terugbetalings nie. Dit kan tot 48 uur neem voordat waarde toegevoeg tot 'n MyWay-kaart op die kaart bruikbaar is. Doen aansoek om konsessietariewe by 'n MyWay-agent bv. ANU-studente moet dit jaarliks ​​aan die ANU-unie doen.

Die stadsroetes (bv. R4) is gereeld, betroubaar, het minder stop en ry vinnig tussen die wisselaars. Hulle kan ook druk wees tydens spitstye. Daar word soms na die R4 verwys as die Blue Rapid of Intertown. Oor naweke loop hierdie roete minder. Hierdie dienste is egter nie baie nuttig vir toeriste nie, aangesien hulle nie baie besienswaardighede verbysteek nie, behalwe roetes R2 en R6 wat in die parlementêre driehoek ry. ACTION hou 'n nuttige lys van die dienste na die belangrikste toeriste-aantreklikhede op sy webwerf.

Ander dienste kom minder voor, selfs minder gedurende die laagste en naweke. Sommige kronkel stadig deur die voorstede. Gaan roetes en roosters noukeurig na op die ACTION-webwerf. Dit is oor die algemeen 'n goeie idee om 5-10 minute voor die bus gedurende die middel van die dag en saans by die voorstedelike bushaltes aan te gaan, want hulle ry dikwels vinnig.

Verwarrend: ACTION-busse word in verskillende kleure geverf. Die meeste is wit en groen (soos op die foto in hierdie afdeling), maar kleiner getalle is blou of oranje.

Oor naweke is daar maklike parkeerplek by Woden-, Belconnen- en Tuggeranong-parkeerterreine, wat die Blue Rapid 'n goeie alternatief vir parkering in Civic maak. Gedurende weeksdae word a Park and Ride permit word benodig. ACTION bied dikwels gratis eenmalige dienste vanaf middestede tot groot geleenthede, bv. tussen Belconnen / Woden ensovoorts om dae, Skyfire, sportbyeenkomste, Floriade of die Arboretum te vertoon. Dit word op die ACTION-webwerf en via sosiale media aangekondig.

Fietshokke langs die stadsroetes kan sonder ekstra koste gebruik word. Dit is egter slegs beskikbaar vir geregistreerde MyWay-kaartgebruikers, wat verder aansoek gedoen het om toegang tot individuele hokke.

Gebruikers kan ACTION-busreise op Google Maps beplan. Vervoer Canberra's NXTBUS webwerf bied live updates.

Wenke om met die busse te ry:

• Klim in die bus deur die voordeure. Instap deur die agterdeure is toegelaat by busstasies vir gebruikers van MyWay-kaart.
• As u van bus moet verander om êrens te kom, vra dan vir a oordrag kaartjie; dit sal u binne 90 minute nadat u met die eerste bus geklim het, soveel busse as u benodig.
• Vertel die bestuurder waarheen u moet kom (en hoe vinnig as dit belangrik is) en vra hulle wat u opsies is. Sommige busse slang deur die voorstede en kan 'n rukkie neem om 'n relatiewe kort afstand af te lê, terwyl ander dalk meer direkte of sneldienste is.
• Die meeste busse ry nie op Sondae en openbare vakansiedae na 21:30 nie. Hulle werk nie oornag, na middernag of voor 05:00 nie. Daar is egter 'n 'flexibus'- of' nightrider'-stelsel met sekere roetes wat op hierdie tye loop - teen 'n vaste tarief van $ 10 - wat in die vroeë somer oor naweke loop, maar nie dwarsdeur die jaar nie.
• Vanaf Oktober 2018 is 84% ​​van die vloot toeganklik vir rolstoelgebruikers. Busse wat rolstoel toeganklik is, het 'n rolstoeloprit by die voordeur.
• Die meeste busse het 'n fietsrak voor. Fietsrakke kan net 2 fietse op 'n slag vervoer.
• As u 'n MyWay-kaart gebruik, moet u onthou om dit af te merk voordat u uitklim.

Kultuurlus

Die Culture Loop-bus

• Culture Loop-pendelbus. Hierdie gratis busdiens verbind die meeste van Canberra se belangrikste kulturele instellings. Dit behels egter net een bus wat uurliks ​​ry. 'N Kombinasie van hierdie roete en ACTION-dienste of taxi's sal gemakliker wees as om u reis volgens die busrooster te beplan. Vry. (Desember 2018 opgedateer)

Per fiets

'N Fietspaadjie naby die Tuggeranong-meer

Fietse is 'n praktiese manier om in Canberra rond te kom tydens besoeke, en sal u na die meeste besienswaardighede bring met behulp van 'n goed ontwikkelde netwerk van fietsrypaaie. Besoekers kan fietse by verskillende ondernemings huur, insluitend Fietsry Canberra. 'N Enkele akkerlose fietsondernemingsonderneming Airbike, is in die omgewing van Civic en die parlementêre driehoek bedrywig. Daar is ook verskeie fietswinkels langs Lonsdalestraat net noord van Civic.

Canberra het ook oor die algemeen goed ontwikkelde fietsrygeriewe, maar die fietsrybane eindig soms en begin op heeltemal onverklaarbare plekke.

Vanweë die gewildheid van fietsry in Canberra, is die meeste padgebruikers bewus van fietsryers en bedagsaam daaroor.

Die besienswaardighede rondom die meer is toeganklik op redelik plat paadjies en heuwelagtige dele is kort. Besienswaardighede waarby "berge" betrokke is, bv. Mount Ainslie, Black Mountain, die Arboretum of die Stromlo-sterrewag sal uiteraard steil wees. Reise vanaf die Civic in die rigting van Belconnen of die Canberra Universiteit is egter hoofsaaklik opdraand. Pedaal Krag het 'n lys met pendel- en ander roetes. Fietse is toegelaat op voetpaadjies in die WET (behalwe as u winkels gedurende handelsure verbysteek).

Daar is fietsrakke om u fiets op te sluit by die meeste winkelsentrums en besienswaardighede. Fietshelms is verpligtend.

Die meeste ACTION-busse het fietsrakke voor wat 2 fietse kan vervoer sonder ekstra koste. Die fietsrakke het clips, dus is geen ekstra toerusting nodig nie. Slegs 20 "bande of groter fietse word vervoer. Kinders moet deur volwassenes vergesel word, en kindersitplekke en ander toebehore moet van die fiets verwyder word. U kan u fiets aan boord van die trems van Canberra neem, of dit by 'n tremstasie sluit.

Openstreetmap wys fietspaaie en waterfonteine. Sommige boeke met plaaslike ritte is Fietsry rondom Canberra deur Bruce Ashley, en Waarheen om Canberra te ry deur Fietsry Australië.

Met die trem

Walter Burley Griffin se oorspronklike 1912-plan vir Canberra het 'n stedelike tremdiens vereis, maar dit het meer as 'n eeu geduur - en baie verkeerde begin - vir die eerste ry om in 2019 te open. Canberra se eerste tremlyn strek vanaf die Northbourne Plaza in Civic na Gungahlin. Dit is hoofsaaklik 'n pendelroete na die voorstede van Canberra. Dit gee u 'n aangename rit op die hoofweg van Canberra en verby die skouterrein en uitstallingsentrum en verder na die middedorp van Gungahlin in die noorde van Canberra. Daar is planne vir uitbreidings en nuwe lyne, en aangesien die eerste tremspoor 'n politieke knoppie was tydens die ACT-verkiesing in 2016, is die Oktober-een wat deur die pro-tram Arbeid (en hul eweneens 'n groen koalisievennoot van die tram) gewen word. wel vir die toekoms van die stelsel.

Gebruik u MyWay-kaart om te ry. Vervoer werk naatloos na busse. Merk aan en af ​​op die platform voor en na instap.

Canberra-paaie is oor die algemeen van uitstekende gehalte en betreklik onbestaande.

Die meeste van die belangrikste besienswaardighede bied gratis parkeerplek. Gedurende werksure is daar baie beperkte besoekers en werknemers se parkeerplekke in die parlementêre driehoek (wat die nasionale biblioteek, Questacon, die ou parlementshuis, die nasionale galery, die Commonwealth Place, ens.) Bevat.

Die standaard spoedbeperking op alle paaie in die ACT is 50 km / h, tensy anders aangedui. Groot paaie in die ACT het spoedbeperkings tussen 60 en 100 km / h. Soms het dieselfde pad 'n ander spoedbeperking vir verkeer wat in teenoorgestelde rigtings op pad is. Die ACT het ook die meeste spoedkameras per capita in Australië. Vaste spoedkameras het vooraf waarskuwingstekens via openlike aanwysings; rooi lig- / spoedkameras het baie kleiner waarskuwingstekens, gewoonlik nie gepaard met 'n bordjie wat aan die spoedgrens herinner nie. Mobiele spoedkamera-bakkies werk in die ACT (gewoonlik, maar nie altyd nie, op hoofpaaie); dit kan oop of onderdak geparkeer wees, en word geïdentifiseer deur 'n groot wit bordjie op die dak.

40 km / h-skoolsones is gedurende die skooldag aktief (anders as die omliggende Nieu-Suid-Wallis, waar dit slegs 'n uur of twee aan die begin en einde van die skooldag werk). Skolesones word streng bestuur.

Die belangrikste winkel- en handelsgebied van Canberra staan ​​bekend as Civic, maar u sal nooit 'n wegwyser na Civic sien nie. Dit word aangedui as 'Stad'.

Neem verandering vir parkeermeters in Civic as u op straat of op die parkeerterreine van die regering wil parkeer. Parkering in die middedorpe is moeilik op weeksdae. Dit is ook moeilik om snags in Civic te parkeer. Daar is verskeie parkeervlakke naby die Canberra-sentrum met betaalstasies en betaalhokkies. Die heeldagparkeerplek in die Canberra-sentrum is goedkoper op die dakvlak. U moet 'n parkeertoegangskaartjie by die eerste boomhek afhaal en dan die kaartjie in die tweede boomhek invoer as u op die dakvlak gaan.

Petrol / brandstof. Daar is min vulstasies op die hoofpaaie; in plaas daarvan is hulle geneig om naby plaaslike winkels, buite die hoofpaaie, te wees. Kyk vir die klein blou brandstofpompbordjies wat van die hoofpaaie af wys. Begin goed kyk voordat jy te laag raak. Daar is verskeie vulstasies net oos van Northbournelaan by Civic. Petrol is ook duurder in Canberra as Sydney.

Historic buildings

The Shine Dome

As the development of Canberra didn't take off until the 1950s, the city has few noteworthy historic buildings. In addition to those which host major national institutions described elsewhere, the following buildings are considered historically significant:

Plans to revivalise the buildings are regularly proposed, but never go far.

The majority of the Australian Capital Territory is actually not Canberra city and there is a large area of national park encompassing the northern part of the Australian Alps.

Or for locals to climb up a hill after work before heading home. One of the most popular with visitors is the walk to the lookout atop Mount Ainslie. Others include Cooleman Ridge, Mount Taylor, Oakey Hill, The Pinnacle, Red Hill etc. and ACT Walking for Pleasure have maps, and schedules each week.

  • Head south to Tharwa, and then take the road to Adaminaby. Take the signed road to Honey Suckle Creek. Very important historical site, this is where the signals from the Apollo 11 space landing were received, and then beamed around the world. Also a nice drive, and a very good camp ground.
  • On the same road, not far off the Adaminaby Road is a walking (Fire ranger) trail to the top of Mount Tennant. About a 5-hour round hike, but worth every step. Go back onto the Adaminaby road, and head south. Another site of a space centre on the right down the road, worth a look, but not as interesting
  • Remaining on the road for another ten kilometers, entering the Namadgi National park, and two hundred meters after a single-lane bridge is a signed turn off to Yankee's Hat. This is a 4-km drive, any car can take it, and look for Kangaroos. Hundreds either side of the road. The walk to Yankee's hat will take you to see aboriginal art.
  • Road to Adaminaby. If you have a robust vehicle, take the road south. The country is magnificent. It takes about an hour from Yankee's Hat.

Bly veilig

Canberra is 'n baie veilige stad en geniet een van die laagste misdaadsyfers in Australië. Neem egter die gewone voorsorgmaatreëls teen opportunistiese misdaad. Waardevolle waardes moet veral nie oornag binne motors sonder toesig in sig gelaat word nie.

Ten spyte van die skynbare welvaart, het Canberra mense wat 'rof' leef. Veral rondom Civic is dit nie ongewoon om geld gevra te word nie. Dit is 'n goed georganiseerde aktiwiteit wat beide besoekers en plaaslike inwoners rig: as u net sê dat u nie geld het nie, sal die bedelaar (eg of vals) gewoonlik voortgaan.

Sodra u Civic verlaat, is Canberra redelik verspreid. Die grootste deel van die jaar kan die aande redelik vinnig koud en winderig word. Moenie op voldoende beligting reken nie, selfs nie in gewilde of gemerkte voetpaadjies nie. Net so is dit moontlik as u op sulke roetes tussen stadsentrums reis of as u in die bosse reis, niemand gedurende 'n hele reis sien nie. Hou 'n kaart en toepaslike klere. Dra op warm dae water. Vir fietsryers is dit nodig om in Canberra die middele te hê om 'n lekplek reg te maak en die regte ligte te hê.

Moenie op selfoonontvangs reken as u boswandel nie. Dit is veral die geval met spore in die parke buite die stedelike gebied van Canberra. As u in daardie gebiede wandel, dra 'n alternatiewe vorm van kommunikasie, soos 'n persoonlike opspoorbaken vir ingeval u of 'n lid van u party hulp nodig het.

Moenie in die mere (insluitend die Burley Griffin-meer) swem voordat u nie kyk aanlyn, aangesien lae watergehalte dit onveilig kan maak. Min Canberrans swem ooit in die mere as gevolg van algblom in die somer, maar die waterkwaliteit is nou hoër as voorheen.

Doodspampioene (Amanita phalloides) kom algemeen voor in baie voorstede van Canberra, en inname van a enkeling kan die dood veroorsaak

Omdat u die 'boshoofstad' is, kan u natuurlewe ontmoet, selfs in die stadsgebiede. 'N Oos-grys kangaroe kan langer as 2 m lank word, langer as 'n baie lang man en kan jou ernstig beseer. Moenie te naby kom nie, veral nie by 'n moeder met 'n joey nie, en waardeer hulle op 'n afstand. Hou kangaroes dop tydens ry, veral snags.

Verbind

Die National Library of Australia het gratis WiFi en rekenaarterminale, sowel as 'n eksemplaar van byna elke boek wat ooit in Australië gepubliseer is
