Transurban discloses that “Transurban's Sustainability Policy outlines the commitments we have made for our own business and in how we engage with a range of stakeholders on environmental objectives including climate change strategy,” and states that these processes are intended to “ensure that your engagement activities are consistent with your overall climate change strategy.” This indicates an intention to align external advocacy with its climate goals, but the disclosure remains high-level. Beyond listing ambitions such as to “Advocate and promote the adoption of SDGs in transport infrastructure” and partnering with organisations on environmental issues, the company does not disclose who is responsible for approving or monitoring lobbying positions, any formal review or audit of trade-association alignment, or any board or executive oversight structure. We found no evidence of specific mechanisms—such as periodic alignment reviews, escalation procedures, or named accountable executives—that would demonstrate how the stated commitments are operationalised or enforced. Consequently, while Transurban references alignment between engagement activities and climate strategy, the absence of detailed oversight structures, monitoring processes, or accountability measures suggests only limited transparency over its lobbying governance.
