Regional Transport Plans
The Department of Transport and Main Roads is working with state and local government and other key stakeholders throughout Queensland to develop a suite of Regional Transport Plans. These plans will guide the planning of an efficient and responsive transport system in Queensland over the next 15 years.
The delivery of the plans is a requirement of the Transport Planning and Coordination Act (1994). The plans provide a bridge between local, Queensland and Australian government planning, drawing from and supporting the region’s goals.
What is a Regional Transport Plan?
Regional Transport Plans are developed with key stakeholders, including representatives from state and local government, business and industry to prioritise and manage the transport system so that it effectively supports regional communities, growth and productivity.
The plans achieve this by:
- establishing common transport priorities between the Queensland Government and local governments
- communicating our planning intent for the region
- defining the transport systems’ role in achieving regional goals and priorities for our planning and investment
- partnering with local government
- guiding future transport planning and investment.
Final Regional Transport Plans
The finalised Regional Transport Plan for Northern Queensland is now in effect.
This latest plan joins the finalised plans for Central West Queensland, Darling Downs, Far North Queensland, Fitzroy, Mackay Isaac Whitsunday, North West Queensland, South West Queensland and Wide Bay Burnett, regions.
These plans have been developed in collaboration with local government partners and key regional stakeholders. The plans will be monitored, periodically reviewed and updated to ensure they remain current and relevant.
