Transport
In NSW, local councils are responsible for the management of the local road network, including road funding, maintenance, and parking regulation .
In practice, transport is about much more than roads, with Councils also responsible for localised policy around how to best move people and goods around the Local Government Area. This includes everything from streetscape design, to footpaths and shared paths, sustainability, road safety and working with Transport for NSW and bus operators to improve public transport policy.
Explore how transport is planned and managed in Waverley below.
-
Transport vision
Waverley's People, Movement and Places is the key document which governs Council’s approach to transport.
-
Streets & roads
In Waverley, most streets are 'local streets' under the jurisdiction of Council, with a number of roads fully controlled by Transport for NSW.
-
Walk
Council is focussed on making the LGA walkable, with a particular focus on making it safer for younger pedestrians around school areas.
-
Cycle
Council is focussed on upgrading its bicycle network to be more comfortable for riders of all ages and abilities.
-
Bike share
Waverley is working with Transport for NSW towards more effective strategies to control the entry and operation of bike share providers as well as working with current providers when neighbourhood issues result from their operations.
-
Car share
Council manages dedicated car share parking and maintains a relationship with local operators, assisting residents to avoid car ownership.
-
Electric vehicles
Waverley is making it easier to switch to EVs with the progressive roll out of a charging network.
-
Public transport
Transport for NSW manages public transport in partnership with bus operators and there is an abundance of connections available in the area, including for those with mobility needs.
