Recommendation 59

Develop and implement a public transport patronage action plan with a focus on non-build measures

Recommendation

Make better use of existing transport infrastructure, increase public transport usage and reduce road congestion by developing and implementing a public transport patronage action plan with a focus on non-build measures. The action plan should include:

  • adopting behaviour-change initiatives, digital technologies, and operational and service delivery innovations, including targeted trials and mobility-as-a-service models and include these in the scope of future business cases for major road and rail infrastructure
  • planning for better connectivity to educational facilities and other activity precincts.
