In the Central West and Orana, we are paving the way for a transport system that reflects the unique character and needs of the region.
The Draft Central West and Orana Strategic Regional Integrated Transport Plan (the Plan) provides a 20-year vision and defines the key transport priorities for the region to support community, land use and transport needs, now and into the future.
Consultation on the Central West and Orana SRITP has now closed. Thank you to everyone who participated in the engagement process to date, we have received a high volume of feedback, questions and comments.

The draft SRITP for the Central West and Orana builds on the extensive work already carried out on the former Regional Transport Plan, and incorporates input received from key stakeholders and the community during 2024/2025.
Several key themes emerged from this early engagement and helped inform the SRITP’s objectives. These objectives support how we will achieve the strategic transport vision for the Central West and Orana.
View the Early Engagement Report to find out what we heard.
There are seven objectives of the Draft Central West and Orana Strategic Regional Integrated Transport Plan.
All investment in the transport network, services, policy and technology take a Country-centred approach.
All Central West and Orana residents, workers, and visitors will have access to more equitable options for travelling to and from local, regional, and metropolitan destinations and services.
Well-located housing and successful places will be supported by coordinated delivery of active transport network infrastructure and public transport services.
An efficient transport network to support a diversifying and growing economy, including tourism and freight movement.
Trauma on the Central West and Orana road network will be in decline and heading towards Transport’s goal of zero fatalities and serious injuries by 2050.
Proactive planning for network shocks and stresses will increase the reliability of the transport network.
Minimising greenhouse gas emissions and particulate pollution to deliver an environmentally sustainable transport network and healthy natural environments.
A list of more than 60 initiatives have been identified to respond to the objectives and challenges of the region.
These initiatives are a mixture of small and large infrastructure projects, programs, service improvements, and policy changes – in the short, medium, or long term. The initiatives can be viewed at the back of the Draft Plan, or you can comment on them in the survey.
Feedback received during public consultation will be reviewed and a consultation summary report will be prepared and published. Feedback will also be considered to further refine the Plan, with the final Plan expected to be delivered in 2026.
