Transurban has a long-standing commitment to sustainability which is consistent with our purpose – to be the link between people, places and progress.
We recognise that to provide long-term value for investors and meet the needs of each of our stakeholder groups, we must deliver more than just financial returns. We set high standards for our performance across environmental, social and governance issues and transparent disclosure of our sustainability performance.

Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD)
Climate change is already influencing the way we identify, measure and manage climate-related risks. We need to prepare our assets to better adapt to potential future climate scenarios.
With 22 roads operating across Australia and North America, it is undeniable that the impact of climate change will affect the way we run our business in the future – including because of substantial physical changes to our climate. Changes across technology, market and reputation will be required as our world transitions to a low-carbon economy.
Our latest Climate Change Disclosure is available in our FY24 Corporate Report
Addressing the gender pay gap
We report annually to the Workplace Gender Equality Agency (WGEA) on key gender equality indicators across our Australian workforce. Data we report includes: gender representation; pay metrics; and workforce management statistics. WGEA, in turn, reports on applicable Australian companies’ performance across these metrics.
Gender pay gap reporting: statement of context
Since 2024, WGEA has published gender pay gap (GPG) data of all Australian employers with 100 or more employees. By sharing this data, WGEA aims to increase transparency of the gap between the average earnings of women and men.
Our strategic focus on fostering a diverse workforce and inclusive workplace is demonstrated in our GPG performance over time and relative to our industry. Our diversity and inclusion objectives guide and monitor our efforts to achieve and maintain gender balance across our Board, leadership and workforce, and to reduce our overall gender pay gap.

Global and national benchmarking performance
We have consistently ranked in Equileap’s top-10 Australian and top-20 global companies. This year (2025) we were again named the no.1 global and Australian company on gender equality performance in Equileap’s annual ranking program – our second consecutive year.
Transurban reports to WGEA annually, in accordance with the Workplace Gender Equality Act 2012. Since 2014 we have also applied for the Employer of Choice for Gender Equality citation, which we were again awarded for 2023–25, our eleventh consecutive year. See all WGEA Employer of Choice for Gender Equality citation holders.

Modern Slavery Statement
Modern slavery is a serious and complex issue that requires a long-term and coordinated response. As such, we have joined like-minded industry partners to adopt a united approach to addressing this issue. Our latest Modern Slavery Statement outlines how we work to identify, manage and mitigate the specific risks of modern slavery in our operations and supply chains.
While we did not identify any instances of modern slavery in our operations or supply chains in this financial year, we will remain vigilant in monitoring and addressing these risks and continue to deepen the engagement with our supply chain partners.

Social performance
Transurban’s purpose is to be the link between people, places and progress. Our customers, local communities and employees are all important stakeholders in this purpose.
Read more below about how we work with residents near our roads, build community partnerships, improve customer service and how we are promoting a diverse and flexible working environment.
Customer advocacy
We have around 10.5 million customers in Australia and North America, and we’re always working to improve our customers’ experiences, both on and off the road. To succeed in this mission, we need to understand what our customers value and need from us.
One way we track our customer support performance is through our Voice of Customer program that checks in with customers and collects feedback at key points in their journeys. Learn more about our customer approach.
Net Promoter Score (NPS)
We measure our performance via a Net Promoter Score (NPS). Our Voice of Customer program checks in with customers during key interactions with us, including asking them: How likely is it that you would recommend Linkt to a friend or colleague? Customers rate us out of 10, with scores of nine and 10 demonstrating customer advocacy and loyalty. These ratings inform our NPS.
