Road Safety Program 2023/24-2025/26

The Road Safety Program 2023/24-2025/26 was launched in early 2024. $103.6 million of funding was made available to councils across NSW.

The Program seeks to improve road safety by minimising the occurrence of severe injuries and fatalities, with a focus on vulnerable road users like pedestrians and cyclists. It targets both urban areas and rural high-speed roads, aiming to reduce off-road and head-on collisions.
