Tina Webb

Senior Advisor

Tina Webb is a transport planner and traffic engineer with over 25 years of experience across Victoria, specialising in growth area planning, precinct structure planning, and integrated transport and land use.

She has played a central role in shaping many of Victoria’s new communities through her work at the Victorian Planning Authority, where she has led transport planning across metropolitan and regional growth areas. Her experience spans policy, planning, and delivery, with a focus on ensuring transport networks are practical, coordinated, and aligned with development outcomes.

She works across both strategic planning and detailed traffic engineering, bringing a depth of technical expertise that ensures plans are grounded in how networks actually function.

Tina’s focus

Tina specialises in planning and delivering transport networks for new and growing communities. Her work focuses on:

  • transport planning for precinct structure plans (PSPs) and growth areas

  • integration of transport and land use in greenfield and regional contexts

  • traffic engineering, modelling, and impact assessment

  • infrastructure planning and coordination across agencies

  • stakeholder and consultant management through statutory planning processes

  • expert evidence and advisory input into planning panels and approvals

She has worked across the full planning lifecycle, from early strategy through to detailed assessment, approvals, and implementation.

This breadth of experience - likely without para across industry - gives Tina a deep understanding of how growth area planning works in practice, including infrastructure sequencing, funding constraints, and delivery pathways.

Approach

Tina combines strategic planning with detailed technical analysis. Her work is grounded in traffic engineering and network performance, ensuring that plans are realistic, testable, and aligned with how infrastructure operates.

In practice, this means:

  • using data and modelling to test planning assumptions early

  • resolving transport and land use issues through the statutory planning process

  • working closely with infrastructure, water, and community planning teams to coordinate delivery

  • managing consultants and stakeholders to maintain alignment through complex approvals processes

She is known for producing clear, defensible advice that stands up in planning panels and implementation.

Experience across government and advisory roles

At the Victorian Planning Authority, Tina has led multimodal transport planning across greenfield, regional, and urban renewal sites. Her role has included:

  • advising on transport inputs to planning scheme amendments

  • responding to submissions and reviewing expert evidence

  • coordinating infrastructure planning across disciplines

  • managing consultants and stakeholder engagement

She has also acted as an Expert Traffic Witness through Planning Panels Victoria, providing independent advice on complex planning matters.

Prior to this, Tina held senior roles at RACV and Ratio Consultants, where she delivered transport strategies, policy advocacy, and major traffic engineering projects across Victoria.
