The Department of Transport is the department of the South African government concerned with transport. The political head of the department is the Minister of Transport, currently Barbara Creecy; her deputy is Mkhuleko Hlengwa.
Responsibility for transport is constitutionally between the national transport department and the nine provincial transport departments. The national department has exclusive responsibility for national and international airports, national roads, railways, and marine transport; the national and provincial departments share responsibility for other airports, public transport, road traffic regulation, and vehicle licensing; and the provincial departments have exclusive responsibility for provincial and local roads, traffic and parking.
In the 2011 national budget, the department received an appropriation of 35,084 million rand. As of 30 September 2010 it had 529 employees.
The department had a budget of 79.5 billion rand for the 2023/2024 financial year, with transfers and subsidies to entities within the department accounting for about 98%. Prasa, the struggling state rail agency, will receive more than a quarter (R20.5-billion) of the budget.
