Advice
The Committee unanimously supported the recommendation.
Background
Transport for NSW (TfNSW) continues to advance its integrated transport initiatives through the Greater Sydney Services and Infrastructure Plan and Future Transport Strategy 2056. These frameworks aim to deliver a connected and efficient transport network that prioritises sustainability, customer experience, and accessibility.
The current strategies are designed to accommodate Sydney's
projected population growth, increase reliance on public and active transport,
and enhance the quality of life for its residents. The plans ensure safe and
seamless movement across all modes, including trains, buses, ferries, light
rail, cycling, and pedestrian pathways, while also managing road traffic
efficiently. This comprehensive approach addresses congestion, encourages the
use of environmentally-friendly transport options, and supports Sydney’s vision
of becoming a more liveable and connected global city.
