Your Road Safety Levy at Work
The Road Safety Levy was introduced on 1 December 2007 as a genuine partnership between the State Government and the Tasmanian community to tackle the serious issue of safety on our roads.
All revenue raised by the levy is being used to implement road safety measures over and above those already funded by Government.
The levy is applied directly to road safety initiatives that have been identified through research and expert advice as most likely to reduce the level of serious casualty crashes:
- Safer Travel Speeds
- Best Practice Infrastructure
- Increased Safety for Young Road Users
- Enhanced Vehicle Safety
The report below contains information on the initiatives from the first year of the levy:
