Transport Data Roadmap 2022 - 2025

The data roadmap shows the planned outcomes that Transport will deliver on from 2022 to 2025 as the value of data is increasingly unlocked for our customers, the community, our people and partners.

Based on the visual roadmap above, we have divided the Transport Data Strategy Roadmap initiatives by horizons and into data priorities and data enablers.

Year 2022-2023 Build on Transport's strong foundation


Data priority outcomes

  • Increase channels for customers to provide feedback and capture sentiment
  • Increase availability of public insights through Data and Research page relaunch for Transport corporate website
  • Leverage data to optimise multi-modal journeys through Active Transport and Mobility as a Service (MaaS) trials
  • Data, modelling and forecasting to optimise and plan for operations and to use in rapid response crisis management
  • Ongoing Artificial Intelligence trials in priority areas

Transport data enablers

  • Establish Quantum Centre of Excellence and partnerships
  • Leverage and expand partnerships across industry for reciprocal data exchange
  • Joint local and state government data initiative pilots 
  • Establish Transport hub and spoke operating model and Communities of Practice
  • Continued upgrade of legacy data systems, including geospatial
  • Establish enterprise data governance with clear accountability and guidance on expectations

Year 2023-2024 Support and scale future state
