{{main|Melbourne 2030}}
[[Melbourne]], [[Victoria (Australia)|Victoria]] is expected to reach a population of 5 million by 2030 with the overwhelming majority of its residents relying on private automobiles. Since the turn of the century, sporadic efforts have been made by various levels of government to implement transit-oriented development principles. However, a lack of commitment to funding public transport infrastructure, resulting to overcrowding and amending zoning laws has dramatically slowed progress toward [[Sustainability|sustainable development]] for the city.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Planning|date=2017-03-08|title=Melbourne 2030: Planning for sustainable growth|url=https://www.planning.vic.gov.au/policy-and-strategy/planning-for-melbourne/melbournes-strategic-planning-history/melbourne-2030-planning-for-sustainable-growth|access-date=2021-12-10|website=Planning|language=en}}</ref>

The [[New South Wales State Government]] has actively encouraged developments around stations on the [[Sydney Trains]] and [[Sydney Metro]] networks through its Priority Precincts plan.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.smh.com.au/national/nsw/more-density-around-rail-stations-and-new-schemes-for-renters-nsw-housing-plan-20170319-gv19u2.html|title=More density around rail stations and new schemes for renters: NSW housing plan|date=March 19, 2017|access-date=23 April 2025|archive-date=23 April 2025|url-status=live|archive-url=https://archive.today/20250423124237/https://www.smh.com.au/national/nsw/more-density-around-rail-stations-and-new-schemes-for-renters-nsw-housing-plan-20170319-gv19u2.html|first=Jacob|last=Saulwick|work=The Sydney Morning Herald}}</ref> Several stations such as [[Chatswood railway station|Chatswood]], [[Burwood railway station, Sydney|Burwood]], [[Parramatta railway station|Parramatta]] and [[Rhodes railway station|Rhodes]] have had large scale apartment developments built within close proximity during the 2010s. New apartment and office tower developments along the future Sydney Metro stations are being planned as integrated developments with the stations themselves. Examples of this include [[Victoria Cross railway station|Victoria Cross station]] and [[Crows Nest railway station|Crows Nest station]] whilst existing stations such as [[Castle Hill railway station|Castle Hill]] and [[Epping railway station, Sydney|Epping]] have also had intensified development.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://infrastructuremagazine.com.au/2017/11/03/sydney-stations-chosen-for-mass-transit-oriented-developments/|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20241217125750/https://infrastructuremagazine.com.au/sydney-stations-chosen-for-mass-transit-oriented-developments/|archive-date=17 December 2024|work=Infrastructure magazine|url-status=live|access-date=23 April 2025|title=Sydney stations chosen for mass-transit-oriented developments|date=November 3, 2017}}</ref>
