Connecting Communities
Council’s new 20-year Integrated Transport Strategy focuses on the community’s transport needs now and into the future, to create a Frankston that’s safer, healthier, connected, sustainable and inclusive.
Informed by community engagement, the strategy outlines 53 actions that address the key transport concerns shared by residents.
That means we’re looking at ways to provide the community with more transport options for their journeys, with a strong focus on sustainable and active transports options such as walking, bike riding, ride-share, and public transport through a range of strategies including:
- More accessible, safe, and connected pathways and streets across the City
- Advocating to the State Government for more trains, more often and faster services and better-connected services (i.e. buses with trains)
- Smarter car parking options
The strategy isn’t a stand-alone plan – it will inform other projects and plans across the city such as land use planning, structure planning, Council and State Government road projects, level crossing removals, and how we address and target local issues.
Education is also a key part of the strategy, with a range of innovative approaches proposed, including a walk to school program.
