Information Sheet 25 - Public Road-Related Expenditure and Revenue in Australia (2006 update) This update covers the years 2000-01 to 2003-04 for road-related expenditure by each level of government as well as total expenditure by State and Territory. It also provides an estimate of non-public sector donations of road assets to State and Local Governments. Selected motor vehicle taxes and charges have been updated to 2003-04. The BTRE road construction and maintenance index has been updated to 2004-05. Australian Government road expenditure by programme is provided for the year 200405 and thus includes figures for Auslink funding. The total amount of funding for road-related expenditure by the Australian, State, Territory and Local Governments in 2003-04 was $8.8 billion (Table 1). This amount includes donations from the non-public sector. Between 2000-01 and 2003-04 total road-related expenditure increased by an average of 4 per cent per year. The presentation, in this Information Sheet, of government road-related expenditures together with motor vehicle revenues does not imply that there is, or should be, any direct linkage between revenue and expenditure.
