Urban and regional planning is increasingly central to public policy in Australia and internationally. As cities and regions adapt to profound economic, societal and technological shifts, new urban and environmental problems are emerging â from inadequate systems of transport and infrastructure, to declining housing affordability, biodiversity loss and human-induced climate change. Australian Urban Land Use Planning introduces the Australian urban land use planning system, focusing on the particular characteristics of the NSW statutory planning process. It provides information about the key statutory instruments and plans, roles and responsibilities, and stages of land use planning in NSW. The information is contextualised within the broader national and international planning frameworks. Australian Urban Land Use Planning is essential reading for students, planners, architects and policy makers wanting to know more about how to work within the planning systems in New South Wales and across Australia.

Nicole Gurran is an associate professor of urban planning at the University of Sydney.
