Melbourne Transport Strategy - Seeking Community Views

Moving People and Freight 2006 - 2020" is the City of Melbourne's transport strategy. It was adopted in 2006 and has guided our access and mobility initiatives and decision-making since then. It has also been a major influence on the wider transport discussion and debate in Melbourne and on the development of State Governments transport policy agenda.

The five key directions of the draft update are:

1. Improve inner Melbourne's public transport to allow us to conveniently go anywhere anytime;

2. Manage inner Melbourne's roads to produce the best transport result;

3. Create pedestrian friendly high-mobility public transport streets for inner Melbourne;

4. Make Melbourne a cycling city;

5. Foster innovative, low-impact freight and delivery in central Melbourne.

 

Council is now seeking the community's views on the draft update and will present the results of community consultation  to the Future Melbourne Committee in September 2011.
