Following the announcement of the Tasmanian rail funding package in the first quarter of 2006, the rail network has been added to the State’s managed infrastructure assets. This transport network, which has a replacement value of more than $4 billion (June 2005) for the road component and Transport infrastructure provides the essential links between the population centres of approximately $1 billion (preliminary estimate) for the rail component, caters for practically all Tasmania and to the rest of Australia and other countries through its road system, seaports of Tasmania’s land freight task and most of the interregional communication. It is the and airports. As such, the infrastructure is critical to the community’s economic and social backbone of the State's transport sector linking to the local road network, railheads, seaports, well-being by providing the crucial links for physical communication, industry, services, and airports. The road component includes some 3,650 kilometres of roads and more than tourism and trade. Road and rail corridors provide the connectivity to the seaports and 1,280 bridges and other significant structures. The rail component comprises approximately airports which are so vital for national and international trade and tourism. 700 kilometres of permanent way and structures.

In recent years Under the Special Capital Investment Funds these programs will receive almost $19 million in Tasmania has experienced record growth in the economy, jobs, population, tourism and capital 2006/07. A further $66 million will be provided by the State Government for road infrastructure under investment. A growing freight task, the continued expansion of industry and tourism and competitive the Capital Investment Program. This provides both certainty and opportunity for infrastructure international and national markets is placing pressure on Tasmania’s transport network and investment in Tasmania. infrastructure assets. The provision of efficient and safe access and mobility for Tasmanians is essential. Given the decentralised nature of the State, planning for and meeting Tasmanian’s access The Australian Government's AusLink - National Land Transport Plan - was released in 2004. and mobility requirements will present significant challenges. This introduces a new strategic framework for the planning and funding of Australia’s roads and The national freight task is forecast to double from 2005 to 2020 with trends for Tasmania indicating railways to meet long term economic and social needs. The current funding program is set out to 2009 even higher growth of up to a trebling of the freight task over this period. This reflects the State’s when the next five year funding cycle will apply. Projects for this next round of funding will be drawn higher economic and industrial growth rates, increasing dispersion of forestry activity associated with from the Melbourne to Hobart via Burnie, Devonport and Launceston/Bell Bay corridor study which plantations, increased mining activity and an increased activity in the northern ports. will be undertaken in the 2006/07 financial year. Significant pressure is being placed on urban roads with strong traffic growth. If current growth rates This study will consider the strategic road, rail and intermodal needs of the corridor. The corridor study are maintained over the next 10 years traffic volumes are forecast to be 20 to 25% higher than current will be aimed at providing a long term strategic planning and outcome to improve and align the levels. Tasmanian transport system with the needs of industry and the freight flows into and out of Tasmania. Growth and development in the developing urban areas of the municipalities of Kingborough, The State Government is committed to a progressive transport infrastructure program to meet the Brighton, Sorell and Clarence is generating increased traffic volumes along core arterial roads, such as challenges ahead. the Southern Outlet Highway, Channel Highway, South Arm Highway and the Brooker Highway. The current stocks of urban residential zoned land when fully developed in these areas will add significantly to the traffic demand on the network. It is vital for State and Local Government to work together to meet the challenges ahead. With increasing tourism, passenger travel into Tasmania is at historically high levels. The introduction of low-cost airlines has provided low cost access and raised seat capacity to record levels. The two super-fast ferries between Devonport and Melbourne have significantly increased passenger and freight capacity across Bass Strait. This increase in tourism in the State has placed an extra 110,000 vehicles on the State’s roads. The mix of tourist traffic with increasing road freight traffic is an increasingly important issue. The State Government recognises the need for a transport system that can provide the following transport outcomes: • Planned and developed to respond to the challenges of the State’s economic growth. • Integrated and coordinated across all modes of transport. • Maintained and managed in a sustainable manner for the long term. • Managed to comply with all legislative requirements. Jim Cox The State Government is committed to building on the gains achieved in earlier years through the Minister for Infrastructure Economic and Social Infrastructure Fund, and the Better Roads Fund which commenced in 2005.

JUSTICE MISCELLANEOUS (COMMISSIONS OF INQUIRY) BILL 2021 (No. 6) Third Reading Bill read the third time. WORKPLACES (PROTECTION FROM PROTESTERS) AMENDMENT BILL 2019 (No. 54) Second Reading Continued from 24 March 2021 (page 56). [11.05 a.m.] Ms RATTRAY (McIntyre) - Mr President, I mentioned when I moved the adjournment last night that I might well think of something else to add. I do have a very brief offering. I will not take up too much time of the House and the members. Just as I concluded my contribution I received an email from Danny Carney. I do not know if Danny Carney is a Tasmanian citizen, but I assume he is and I want to thank him for contacting me. I replied to Mr Carney earlier today. He asked whether I have any evidence to back up my statement about protesters coming into Tasmania - that they are paid to come to our state and perhaps use funds they are provided with to protest in and around the state for various things. I have provided Mr Carney with some names I was able to source overnight. I was going to talk about those, but I have decided that might not be terribly advantageous, because I do not want to be in conflict with anyone. It is not what I am about and it is not my nature.
