Community involvement ensures effective planning and decision making. It provides important information on RTA development and maintenance proposals and identifies major issues and community concerns.
The RTA works to open up dialogue with the community and provides opportunities for the community to be involved in decisions that affect them.
The RTA seeks community involvement through activities such as public meetings and workshops, Community Liaison Groups, media announcements, letterbox drops, site open days, advisory committees, newsletters and questionnaires.
More details on consultation with the community on major projects can be found in the RTA’s annual report.
The RTA provides its staff with Community Involvement Practice Note and Resource Manual to guide them in developing effective and including community involvement in RTA policies, programs and projects.
The RTA is a corporate member of the International Association for Public Participation.
