As Australia’s cities continue to grow, policies that incentivise more people to walk, cycle, and ride electric devices could help reduce congestion. However, less than 1% of federal road funding is spent on active transportation. This paper argues that unless funding is increased, Australia will continue to lack the infrastructure needed to reduce car dependency.

This report provides recommendations for how governments around Australia can plan and invest public money better to put shared and active transport at the centre of transport delivery.

This report examines what a credible plan to decarbonise Australia’s transport sector could look like, going beyond electric vehicles and giving the country more options to reduce the third-largest and fastest-growing source of emissions.

There is overwhelming evidence that investment in active travel infrastructure brings significant benefits, including large returns on investment, addressing emissions from road transport, reducing regional inequalities, and improving health. This report outlines some recommendations for expanding investment in this area in the UK.

The 2032 Brisbane Olympic and Paralympic Games present an opportunity to make change by using the Games to advance the economy, improve the environment, enhance connectivity and build more inclusive communities through sport. The 20-year journey to a healthier, more active and inclusive society is laid out in this Strategy.
