About this Event

PTCBR presents: 2024 ACT Election Transport Policy Forum

Join us to talk all things transport in the lead-up to this year's ACT election, which will be held on 19 October 2024.

We are pleased to be joined by a panel of spokespeople from the three major parties to discuss the key transport policies that will be presented in the upcoming election. Our speakers will deliver a short outline of their party’s transport policy, followed by a Q&A session in which members of the public can put their questions to the panel.

This is a fantastic opportunity to talk directly with the people seeking your vote this October. Transport is an extremely important topic to many Canberrans and has featured heavily in recent ACT elections. We anticipate this election will be no different!

We welcome all members of the community to come and discuss transport in the context of the election and connect with others who care about how we get around our city, now and into the future.

Speakers (in alphabetical order):
Jo Clay MLA, ACT Greens transport spokesperson
Mark Parton MLA, Canberra Liberals transport spokesperson
Chris Steel MLA, Minister for Transport and Planning, ACT Labor

Date: Monday 26 August
