Minister, can you please inform the house about what is being done to help South Australia align the transport and urban development of the future? The Hon. J.R. RAU House of Assembly Enfield Deputy Premier Attorney-General Minister for Planning Minister for Industrial Relations Minister for Business Services and Consumers INTEGRATED TRANSPORT AND LAND USE PLAN The Hon. J.R. RAU (Enfield—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General, Minister for Planning, Minister for Industrial Relations, Minister for Business Services and Consumers) (14:32): I thank the honourable member for her question. I am pleased to inform the house that on 28 February, the state government announced that it has secured $2 million in funding from the commonwealth to undertake an integrated transport and land use strategy. This integrated strategy will ensure that land use planning, strategic infrastructure planning and transport investment are fully integrated in South Australia for the coming 30 years. It will formalise existing transport and infrastructure plans within the 30-Year Plan for Greater Adelaide. The strategy will focus on moving people between places of residence, work and recreation. It will be designed to guide private, state, federal and local government investment into the transport system for the next 30 years. South Australia has seen unprecedented levels of investment into transport over the past decade, and that has been targeted at revitalising our public transport system, improving public safety and supporting business growth by focusing investment in key transport corridors. I understand key industry groups have welcomed the news and will of course play an important role, not only in the development of this strategy but also in the extensive community consultation both within the metropolitan and regional areas. We hope to complete the study by the end of September this year.
