Roads
With our population centres separated by vast distances, road transport infrastructure is critical to sustaining Australian communities, growing our strong economy and improving our international competitiveness.
The Australian Government, through the Department, contributes to the prosperity of the economy and the well being of all Australians by supporting continued improvement to our road transport infrastructure.
The Department advises the Government on transport reform and innovations to improve road transport efficiency, productivity safety and environmental performance. The Department also provides a diverse range of day-to-day services to the road transport sector and the community.
