In 2012, the Central Sydney Traffic and Transport Committee (CSTTC) was established following amendments to the City of Sydney Act 1988.

The primary function of the Central Sydney Traffic and Transport Committee is to coordinate transport policy and major transport related works between the City of Sydney and the NSW Government.

The Central Sydney Traffic and Transport Committee is comprised of seven members:

·             the Director General of Transport for New South Wales;

·             three persons nominated by the City of Sydney and appointed by the Minister; and
