The Department for Infrastructure and Transport is developing a Transport Strategy to shape the future of transport for the next 30 years.

It will set the overall direction for future transport planning and guide decisions on which projects to prioritise and invest in. It will help ensure that our transport network is ready for the future and that 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.

Have your say before 5:00pm Monday 16 November 2024.
