Transport Strategy

We’re developing a Transport Strategy to shape the future of transport for the next 30 years.

The Transport Strategy will outline the 30-year vision for the state’s transport network, and transform how people and goods move around the state.

The strategy will:

• set the overall direction for future transport planning
• guide decisions on which projects to prioritise and invest in
• help ensure that our transport network is ready for the future
• ensure South Australia remains a great place to live and do business.

The strategy will cover all forms of transport, from cycling, driving and walking to public transport and freight. It will also align to other key state priorities, like the Greater Adelaide Regional Plan, so we can maximise the benefits of other changes happening in South Australia.

Why we need the strategy

South Australia's economy, communities and environments are going through major changes due to global trends, state priorities and local preferences. The state’s transport network faces several key challenges and opportunities, both now and in the future.

Transport plays a crucial role in creating social, economic and environmental benefits for South Australians. It helps to drive growth and prosperity in our state. Being able to freely move around our cities and regions gives us access to more opportunities and services. It also allows us to spend more time doing what we enjoy.

The Transport Strategy will provide a plan to ensure:

• we are well-prepared for the future
• we can make the most out of opportunities over the next 30 years.
