The National Department of Transport invites you to submit written comments on the Revised White Paper on National Transport Policy (RWPNTP) which has been approved by Cabinet for public comments.

The RWPNTP is an overarching policy document which informs the policy direction and objective of the Department with regards to the development of the transport sector in line with our National Development Frameworks, The New Growth Path and National Development Plan 2030. The policy further informs the intervention of government in providing safe, reliable, accessible, efficient and fully integrated transport operations and infrastructure to best meet the needs of freight and passenger customers.

Pursuant to the objectives of the of the 1996 White Paper which aimed largely to support the Reconstruction and Development Programme, the RWPNTP aims to position transport as a means of improving South Africa’s competitiveness and that of its transport infrastructure and operations both locally and internationally
 

The department will also be conducting public consultations on the RWPNTP as outlined below. Schedule for Public Consultation Workshops on the Revised White Paper on National Transport Policy
