Transport Plan - Technology and Innovation Action Plan

Consultation has been extended to 5pm Monday 22 July 2024

Council is seeking your feedback on the draft Technology and Innovation Action Plan which is one of the six draft Action Plans that forms part of the Integrated Transport Plan.

Technology in transport is happening rapidly with new intelligent transport systems and contemporary and near future technology such as electric/hybrid motor vehicles and hydrogen fuel celled vehicles for examples together with the progressive introduction of connected and autonomous or driverless vehicle technologies.

Council will need to enable these changes with future transport initiatives. Simple actions such as marking edge lines and centre lines should be considered to enable lane control functions in autonomous motor vehicles. Future transport services are also changing such as the progressive introduction of innovative services like Mobility as a Service.

What the community can influence:
