Recommendation 56

Deliver improved transport system outcomes by reforming governance and funding hypothecation arrangements

Recommendation

56. Ensure investment in transport infrastructure delivers improved transport system outcomes by:

  1. further reforming governance arrangements for the Transport Portfolio to achieve an integrated, strategic, mode-agnostic approach to transport network planning and delivery across all modes of transport 
  2. reforming funding hypothecation legislative arrangements for motor vehicle licence revenue to fund the planning and delivery of priority projects across all transport modes, not only road-related infrastructure.
