Chapter 10 – Seamless Connectivity and Transport Infrastructure 
10.1. 
Synergy in transport and tourism – enhancing visitor experience
10.1.1. Managing synergy in transport and tourism 
The Policy recognizes that seamless connectivity to the tourist destinations and 
transport infrastructure can greatly enhance visitor experience. Tourism rides on the 
existing core infrastructure like roads, rail, aviation and waterways. Managed 
effectively, transport and tourism synergies can improve visitor mobility to and 
within destinations, and help to secure the economic viability of local transport 
systems and services by servicing both residents and tourists.
10.1.2. Factoring tourism priorities in transport planning
Medium- to long-term needs of the tourism sector will be considered as part of 
transport access and infrastructure planning to maximize and spread the socio-
economic benefits of tourism more widely and manage visitor impacts over time. 
Transport planners will be sensitized to take into account the economic importance 
of tourism including the travel demands and fare revenues generated by tourists and 
tourism industry employees. The factors that affect tourist travel demand including 
the latent demand will be taken into account.
