Information Sheet 13 - Public Road Related Expenditure and Revenue in Australia 1999

Information Sheet 013 Category: general transport


Ownership and control of the road system lies with the states and territories. However, road expenditure in Australia is financed by all three levels of government. At present, the Commonwealth Government's direct road funding responsibilities are the construction and maintenance of the 18,700 km National Highway System, contribution to the construction of Roads of National Importance (RONIs) and the Federal Road Safety Black Spot Program. The Commonwealth Government also supplements State and Territory expenditure on arterial and local roads through untied grants identified for expenditure on roads.
