Urban design in Roads and Maritime Services

Boardwalk

Roads and Maritime Services is committed to achieving good urban design outcomes. This means:

  • Road projects must fit sensitively with the built, natural and community environments through which they pass, in both urban and rural locations.
  • Road planning and design must contribute to the accessibility and connectivity of communities by all modes of movement, including walking, cycling, and catching public transport.
  • The design and management of roads must contribute to the overall quality of the public domain.

RMS achievements in transport infrastructure projects


Roads and Maritime Services' achievements in transport infrastructure projects book

The Achievements e-book has been prepared to showcase some of the infrastructure achievements of recent years. The quality of these projects demonstrate the commitment of the organisation and the NSW Government towards best practice integrated engineering and urban design.

These projects are well built, fit into their architectural and landscape context and look good. They cater for the needs of the economy, community, environment and the travelling public and have provided major improvements in road safety.
