GOALS
CHALLENGES
PRIORITIES
1. Healthy, safe, affordable and connected communities 2. A strong, diverse and growing economy 3. Thriving natural and built environments
1. Growing the role of public transport 2. Efficient connections to export/import gateways 3. Prioritising transport to encourage mixed-use development 4. Encouraging active travel modes 5. Fine-tuning maintaining and better utilising asset 6. Planning system to integrate transport and land use
The Process
Public transport for Greater Adelaide Road Network for Greater Adelaide Cycling and walking for Greater Adelaide Regional South Australia Freight and ports
Solutions for all of South Australia: Managing and maintaining the asset Safety Reducing environmental impacts Reducing car dependency
SOLUTIONS
17 priorities to address challenges
Complete the improvements to the north-south backbone train network (ie electrification)
AdeLINK tram network Redesign and modernise the bus network Potential underground train loop in the CBD Protect the extension of train lines in the
north and south in the longer term Relocate passenger rail terminal into Adelaide
station in the longer term
Public Transport
www.transportplan.sa.gov.au
Complete the North-South Corridor Upgrade the Inner Ring Route & Outer Ring
Route Duplicate Victor Harbor Road to McLaren Vale,
and in the longer term to Mount Compass Targeted intersection and road section upgrades
along major traffic and freight routes – including some road duplication
Actively manage the road network Implement Managed Motorways Protect freight routes Upgrade freight rail through Adelaide Hills and
into northern Adelaide
Adelaide’s Road and Rail Freight Network
www.transportplan.sa.gov.au
Extend the Bikedirect network, with focus on public transport hubs, activity centres and schools
Separate cycling and walking routes along arterial roads where possible
Complete the Greenways Program Expand cycling and walking catchments – e.g.
people-friendly streets Work with councils to maintain and create
walking and cycling networks Promote cycling and walking, and improve
driver awareness
Cycling and Walking
www.transportplan.sa.gov.au
35% of total ITLUP investment is in regional SA Seal the Strzelecki Track Duplicate the Dukes Highway to Victoria Targeted road widening, more overtaking lanes and
rest areas across the network Prepare regional passenger transport plans Support regional aviation Implement the Regional Mining & Infrastructure Plan Upgrade roads to expand High Productivity Vehicle
network Upgrade rail lines Improve connectivity to air and sea ports Deliver regulatory reforms (eg National Heavy Vehicle
Regulator) Provide freight hubs and intermodals
Regional SA/Freight/Ports

Manage and maintain our transport assets • Increased maintenance funding to improve and sustain the
performance of the transport network, make better use of our transport assets
Make our transport system safer and deliver South Australia’s Road Safety Strategy
• Invest in infrastructure, promote and encourage safe behaviour, improve licensing , apply new technology
Reduce environmental impacts • Design and procurement practices, vehicle emissions and impacts
Reduce car dependency • Encourage alternative modes
