Here we’ll keep you updated on timeframes, investment signals and key milestones to help you develop your funding proposals seeking inclusion in the 2024-27 NLTP.
This indicative timeline outlines the key dates, milestones and deadlines for the development of the 2024-27 NLTP.
This timeline remains indicative as there may be times when NLTP’s development is delayed, for example, due to late release of the Government Policy Statement on land transport (GPS), and we may adjust the timeframes for regional land transport plans (RLTPs) as a result.
