Roads and Transport FRRG

About the Roads and Transport FRRG

The effects of a disaster on transport networks, including road, rail, aviation and maritime normally result in difficulty accessing communities and disruption to critical supply chains (both within and outside of the impacted area). Restoration of these networks, or the identification of alternatives, is a priority in disaster recovery.

The purpose of the Roads and Transport Functional Recovery and Resilience Group (FRRG) is to provide functional leadership to support the recovery and resilience of Queensland communities with a specific focus on the transport network. RT FRRG provides support and oversight for roads and transport policy and operational considerations progressed through the SRRG.

The FRRG functions and membership is currently under review with the establishment of new Terms of References to reflect the extended function to include resilience. The new functions and membership will be updated accordingly in the Queensland Recovery Plan through upcoming Plan review.
