What is the Department of Transport and Planning’s (DTP’s) role in this project?

The Department of Transport and Planning centralises key planning and land use activities, precinct and policy functions in a single department. The Department of Transport and Planning (DTP) integrates planning, transport and infrastructure functions across Victoria.

DTP’s transport division has contributed to decisions on state road connections and shared path infrastructure in the East of Aberline PSP. Any planning applications that affect the broader declared road network will be referred to DTP as a determining authority.

DTP’s planning division is responsible for reviewing draft PSPs and supporting the statutory process for planning scheme amendments. DTP Planning has reviewed and endorsed the draft PSP and DCP for exhibition.
