Road safety outcomes in Queensland and across Australia have improved notably in the last 30 years. Queensland's collaborative and strategic approach to managing road safety has helped us to make significant improvements. Queensland's per capita road toll is now one of the lowest in Australia and has remained below the Australian average since 1998.

This paper outlines the management of road safety in Australia and provides more detail on Queensland's approach. It provides evidence that a collaborative approach that focuses on achievable, cost-effective initiatives gives the best outcomes.
