Transurban Group (ASX: TCL)

A second ASX dividend stock that could be in the buy zone according to analysts is Transurban. It is a toll road operator with a high quality portfolio of roads across Australia and North America.

Citi believes that Transurban could be a top option for income investors right now and sees scope for some strong returns over the next 12 months. The broker currently has a buy rating and $15.60 price target on its shares.

As for income, Citi is expecting dividends per share of 63 cents in FY 2024 and 65 cents in FY 2025. Based on the current Transurban share price of $13.46, this will mean yields of 4.7% and 4.8%, respectively.
