Who we are

Officially founded in January 2025, the Student Transport Riders Association is the premier student-run organisation for youth using all forms of public transport in Victoria. We are a not-for-profit organisation, with no political affiliations.

What we do

STRA lobbies transport organisations in the interest of young people using public transport.

We also work with other bodies and the media to provide education on public transport, and promote the benefits of an accessible and sustainable system.

Mission statement

STRA is committed to building:

A fairer network,
A sustainable network,
An accessible network,

...where Victorians, and visitors alike, can go anywhere, at any time, with a safe network that is available to everyone.
