On behalf of councils, ALGA attended the Intergovernmental Steering Committee on road safety meeting last week in Sydney.
ALGA engaged with senior leaders and representatives from the Commonwealth and state and territory governments to review the progress of the National Road Safety Action Plan (2023-25), and discussed the ongoing governance of road safety strategies.
The Action Plan was agreed by all Infrastructure and Transport Ministers in December 2022, and has been developed cooperatively by all levels of government, in consultation with road safety stakeholders and ALGA.
The committee also discussed the drafting of a new National Road Safety Action Plan for publication in 2026, which is due to be completed by December 2025.
