Planning, management & funding

Our role is to ensure that the government's objectives for land transport are delivered through activities such as the provision of infrastructure and services. We work with stakeholders to deliver safe and optimum transport solutions that best meet the needs of communities both today and in the future.

We develop standards, guidelines and rules to help manage all transport networks. We're also responsible for the allocation of funding for land transport activities. Planning, building and maintaining the state highway is also a function we undertake.
