The City of Whittlesea is forming an Integrated Transport Plan to assist the community to have greater choices in how they travel.
A draft background and directions papers have been created to inform the plan and residents can now submit feedback.
The feedback will inform the development of a draft Integrated Transport Plan, which will be the guiding document for transport planning in the municipality for the next decade.
The plan will include walking and cycling, public transport, road transport, road safety and freight movements.
City of Whittlesea administrator Peita Duncan said by making the city’s transport network more efficient and accessible, there would be a difference for the community.
“The plan is not just about transport – it’s about making life smoother, connecting people to places and ensuring a better future for our community,” she said.
“The aim is to offer our community more choice in how they move around, making travelling simpler and more convenient.
“Delivering effective transport options is a shared responsibility between council and the Victorian Government so this plan will also help us to advocate for major road and public transport improvements for our community.”
There are many ways that people can share their thoughts about the future of transport in the City of Whittlesea.
. Consultation is open until February 15.
