Decisions about transport networks are inseparable from decisions about making better places when planning and budgeting infrastructure for the people of NSW.
In 2019, ‘Successful places’, as a budget outcome for the NSW Government transport cluster, accounted for over 80% of government capital spending on transport infrastructure and services. Planning cluster outcomes ‘Create a strong and liveable NSW’ and ‘Maximise community benefit from government land and property’ accounted for 45% of capital spending on planning services.
