The Department of Transport is the lead agency for strategic transport policy, planning and investment in Western Australia. Together with our portfolio partners – Main Roads WA and the Public Transport Authority – we keep people and freight moving through an intricate system of roads, railways, airports, ports, shared paths and waterways. With more than 1,500 employees we have the expertise to provide and enable safe, accessible and efficient movement for the economic and social prosperity of Western Australia. Our dedicated teams of transport professionals provide integrated transport planning for moving people and freight in metropolitan and regional Western Australia and develop strategic transport policy in the fields of maritime, aviation, bike riding and walking and land transport. We are committed to creating opportunities for Indigenous individuals and businesses to share in the delivery of projects across the Transport Portfolio and, as an agency, support assisting disadvantaged people in remote areas of our State to obtain their drivers licence and gain access to employment and other social and economic opportunities. Our customer-focused frontline staff also deliver a range of transport services to the community including licensing functions for people, vehicles and vessels; regulating Western Australia’s on-demand taxi industry; developing and managing coastal infrastructure; keeping people safe in and around the water and administering a range of transport grants and subsidies. Our vision is to have the best integrated and intelligent transport services and solutions for the State, which supports our purpose to empower a thriving community. This work is guided by our core values of Collaboration, Wellbeing, Adaptability and Accountability.
