Community Transport resources

Community transport

The Community-based Transport Queensland Toolbox provides the answers to these and other relevant questions. It is a practical, hands-on, ‘do-it-yourself’ kit designed for individual workers, groups and even local councils wanting to implement solutions to community transport needs.
It complements the Community-based Transport Queensland Guidelines, which provides local governments with options for solving transport problems and offers examples of the action taken by other councils to address their transport challenges.
