Transport Plan Review now under way

Southern Moreton Bay Islands Integrated Local Transport Plan
Review now under way

The need for improved transport infrastructure and services has been a long-standing issue for the Southern Moreton Bay Islands (SMBI) communities.

Last year, Council adopted a broad framework to tackle these and other SMBI issues in partnership with the community and other levels of government – They called it the Bay Island Blueprint. Part of our commitment to address island issues is to review the SMBI Integrated Local Transport Plan . This process is now under way.

An opportunity for online comment will be available in March 2010.

What is an ILTP?

An ILTP:

* provides strategic direction for addressing local transport issues
* requires engagement with relevant government bodies and transport operators to ensure an integrated approach.


We want you to have your say

For the new ILTP to be effective, it will require input and commitments by the state government, transport providers and other key stakeholders to find solutions. It must also take into account the interests and issues of other key stakeholders. We will be asking for your input into the review, to ensure the new plan is based on the most up-to-date information available.
