The National Heavy Vehicle Regulator has released its new Heavy Vehicle Productivity Plan (HVPP).
Focused on challenges affecting the trucking landscape into the future, the HVPP 2025-2030 outlines how the NHVR aims to deliver safe, productive and sustainable heavy vehicle movements that enhance community liveability, drive Australia’s economy and support a resilient supply chain.
It defines contemporary challenges for Australia’s heavy vehicle industry including issues such as growth in the freight task, road fatalities, environmental and health impacts, the shift from asset management to optimisation and the increased frequency of unplanned supply chain disruptions.
It also outlines the NHVR’s plans to address these challenges and will be supported by an annual implementation plan, to provide more specific detail on yearly actions and priorities.
“The new HVPP represents a modern take on heavy vehicle productivity; reflecting the NHVR and partners’ attitude that it has the potential to save lives, reduce carbon emissions and prolong the life of our roads and structures,” the NHVR said in a statement online.
