The impact of the initiatives on road congestion is uncertain. However, the department is significantly improving its data capability, which will allow it to better inform interventions and assess performance.

When congestion initiatives are poorly planned it is more difficult to deliver and assess their benefits.

The department did not design strategic objectives for the signals program. This had consequences for setting priorities and measuring outcomes.
