Inclusive Mobility Task Groups
AITPM supports the vision of a sustainable, efficient, safe, and accessible transport system.
As an enabler for well-being, health, economic viability, and community building, we recognise the vital role transport plays in enabling people to fully participate in society.
Transport mobility and accessibility can be experienced very differently depending on everyone’s personal circumstances.
The aim of the Inclusive Mobility Program is to accelerate our progress towards creating equitable, accessible cities and regions for all.
