Abstract
Australia is a highly urbanised country with over 85% percent of people living in cities and towns. While Australia’s population as a whole has steadily grown, it is highly concentrated in the urbanised areas. Throughout the years, Australia has experienced major urban growth. Coordinated at 25.2744° S, 133.7751° E,
Australia’s population in 1978 was approximately 14 million (8,177,343) in comparison to today’s population in 2018 at 25 million (25,201, 317). All the age brackets have significantly increased, showing how Australia has grown drastically as a whole.
Sydney currently is in an urban sprawl, the continuous unplanned outward growth of city with low density residential areas, sometimes referred to as suburbanisation. The

In the 2011 census, the population of Epping was 20,227 and comprised of approximately 51.1% females and 48.9% males. In the 2016 census, the population of Epping was 23, 688, comprised of approximately 50.6% females and 49.4% males. The 2018 forecasted population is said to grow to 25, 808.
The accessible transportation system in Epping is one key factor in Epping’s population growth. It serves the Sydney Trains T1 Northern and NSW Trainlink Central Coast & Newcastle Line services.
On September 30th 2018, the Epping to Chatswood rail line is said to close as redevelopment will continue for around seven months with newly installed cabling, power and signalling systems. The five stations will also receive screen platform doors to ensure customer safety and a more efficient transportation system. Another change is the transition of the double-decker trains to single-deck trains as the Premier Mr O’Farrell states, “Single-deck trains will carry more people, travel more quickly, and disembark people more quickly without people having to come down those difficult steps that exist on the double-decks and that delay people at railway

The key features of Station Link include a turn up –and- go services around every six minutes during peak hours, a loop service running every 10 minutes 7 days a week through all stations between Epping and Chatswood.
Although this change will be temporary, this will highly affect the congestion around Epping. The sudden placement of the large number of buses replacing the Epping to Chatswood Line will clog up the main roads particularly during peak hour as the services

The rapid population growth rate will result in a more higher-density living area.

It is the 21st century: more than 85 per cent of Australians inhabit the urban areas sprawling along the coasts, and more and more rural areas struggle to survive.
Sydney is the largest city in Australia area of 12,144.6 km ² which has a population 4.5 million people (2009). City is located on the southeastern coast of Australia, near the Pacific Ocean.
Many factors and geographical processes, the foreshore of Sydney Harbour has constantly faced changes in land use which has effected the environment, social communities and the economy in both positive and negative ways. Urban decay, urban renewal, urban consolidation and gentrification are the geographical process that are involved in the changing gland use around the Sydney Harbour foreshore. These geographical processes are what changes the land use from being used as industrial, residential and commercial which then impacts the economy, social communities/ public, the environment and the stakeholders.
Amtrak is a state-owned, for profit, national railroad Company that provides efficient rail service both long and short distance transportation services. Being the primary provider of passenger-rail service in the U.S has a network that connects more than 500 cities and towns in 46 states. It offers long-distance and short-distance service corridors throughout nationwide operating daily, offering several choice of service class – first class sleeping car, custom class and economic services for different age groups with different travel needs. Amtrak receives federal funds to be used for their operating expenses. Its ridership and revenue growth have progressively increased in the past five-year successfully building relationships with the public and customers, recreating branding, and improving new services/quality, and it projects a continued growth in passenger revenue at about 4% per year with modest growth in passenger ridership (Exhibit C4.1, Page 245).
In 1900 the total population was 40 million. The population of England had risen at a rapid rate since 1825. In Scotland and Wales population was also rising but more slowly than England. The population of Ireland had actually fallen owing to a dreadful famine and the emigration that followed it. In England about 75 per cent of people lived in towns.

The broader economic benefits of light rail include its contribution to reducing congestion – which will cost Australia and estimated $12.9 billion in 2010 – and increasing productivity through greater urban mobility and transport choice. Light rail has been found to be particularly effective in achieving mode shift away from private vehicle travel. It offers efficiency, comfort, and high capacity. The visual reassurance of light rail infrastructure and the guarantee of regular and reliable services are particularly important factors in helping change urban travel behavior. Development and economic
According to countrywatch, as of 2015, the total population in Canada is approximately Canada’s population growth rate has been roughly steady around 1.1% per year. The number of live births were 383,103 as of 2012/2013. The infant mortality rate is 4.6 for every 1000 live births as of
That is equivalent to 0.33% of the total world population. Australia ranks number 53 in the list of countries by population. The population density in Australia is 3 per km2. 89.3% of the population is urban (21,996,082 people in 2017). The median age in Australia is 37.6 years.
In terms of the landmass, the total area is 7,741,220 sq. km and is a bit smaller than the United States. The population is 23,232,413 and is ranked number 56th in the world based on population size. The population has been growing at around 1.03% and that is ranked at 110th in the world. The capital city of Australia is Canberra and its current population
Dramatic Changes have taken place in Sydney’s cultural and economic landscapes during the past two decades. These changing landscapes have been linked in both political discourse and the popular press to Sydney’s emerging role as a ‘global city’. Evidence supporting this theory has come from some academic analyses of globalisation in the 1990s. Global cities are identified by their role as command centers for organising the global economy. Such cities have been characterised by their openness to global flows of commodities, money, ideas and information. They have become destinations for both national and international migration of skilled information workers, but also magnets for new streams of global labor migration. The Asia-Pacific Rim has been one of the primary sources of these new flows of international migration into Sydney (Fagan, 2000, pg. 144). The aim of this essay is to gauge the impact of the said globalisations on the various landscapes of Sydney, as globalisation has effected different areas of Sydney in different ways. The principle areas discussed in this paper are Leichardt, Chinatown, Cabramatta, Darling Harbour, the CBD and Pyrmont. The impacts of cultural globalisations will be discussed first, followed by those of economic globalisations. Economic globalisation will be divided into 2 parts: primary impacts and subsequent impacts.
The population of Pakistan has grown up from 3 percent per annum since 1983-1985, the trend of population shows declining trend from 1984 to onwards. Now the total population of Pakistan is 103.4 million as against 152.53 million. Pakistan is the 7th most populous country after crossing Bangladesh and Russia in the world during the last 50 years. The population of Pakistan has increased from 33 million – 152.53 million in 2004-2005.
The Philippines population is made up of over 100 million people, which makes it the twelfth most populated country in the world. The Philippines has a two percent growth rate increase each year, which makes it one of the fastest growing countries in the world.
