Tasmanian Infrastructure Strategy

The Tasmanian Infrastructure Strategy was launched on Wednesday 10 February. The Strategy highlights the State's key economic infrastructure sectors of transport, telecommunications, energy and water.

Tasmanian Urban Passenger Transport Framework

The Tasmanian Government has developed the Tasmanian Urban Passenger Transport Framework to set a future direction for passenger transport in Tasmania's urban areas.  The Framework's vision is to establish "a safe and responsive passenger transport system that supports improved accessibility, liveability and health outcomes for our communities, in the context of the challenges of climate change".

Richmond Bridge Conservation Management Plan

A Conservation Management Plan has been prepared for the Richmond Bridge. The Plan considers the various values associated with the bridge and recommends a series of strategies to assist in future management.

Tasmanian Freight Survey

The survey aims to provide reliable and robust data about Tasmania's heavy freight land transport task to support description, analysis and modelling of the land transport freight task for policy development and planning purposes. The survey collects information about commodities moved by heavy vehicles and rail for Tasmania's major companies.

Southern Integrated Transport Plan

The Southern Intergrated Transport Plan is a collaborative initiative between the Tasmanian Government, Southern Tasmanian Councils Authority, and twelve member councils.
It provides a coordinated and strategic framework to recognise and address transport issues within the Southern Region over the next twenty years.

Strategic Asset Management Plan, (PDF, 905KB)

The Plan sets directions and establishes what we should be doing - in a strategic context - to better manage our road and bridge asset and in doing so it identifies those management activities necessary for ensuring the asset is functional and provides the Tasmanian community with a safe, efficient and sustainable road network.

As a high-level document, the SAMP is an integral part of the Department's overall strategic management framework, sitting between the strategic drivers of Government policies and corporate plans, and the development of specific strategies and programs for the delivery of high level and timely asset maintenance.
