The agency was created on 1 November 2011 from a merger of the Roads & Traffic Authority and NSW Maritime. Planning responsibilities were transferred to Transport for NSW, which was created on the same day. In April 2019, it was announced that the agency was to have all its functions transferred to Transport for NSW.[2][3] Legislation was passed in the NSW Parliament in November 2019, and it was dissolved on 1 December 2019.[4][5]
