2. LAND TRANSPORT MISSION STATEMENT & GOALS
The ETA’s transport mission statement creates the
framework for the setting of goals and the
development of policy for the various components
of the ITP. The mission statement has been
developed within the context of the national and
provincial visions for transport.
Transport has a major influence on development.
At the same time it is impacted by development
and land use. Consequently, the ETA’s vision for
transport recognises the imperatives of the IDP
vision and sets a framework for goals and related policy which will have a
positive impact on social and economic development and activities in the
municipal area.
2.1 National and Provincial Context
Key issues and concerns for transport that emerge from the national and
provincial visions for transport focus on the need for transport systems
and services that meet the needs of the end users and are: -
� safe
� reliable
� effective
� efficient
� affordable
� integrated
Further, such systems and services need to:-
� improve quality of life for all
� support government strategies for social and economic
development
� improve levels of accessibility and mobility
� be economically and environmentally sustainable
� make provision for community participation
