Look for answers in the milky way

’ve fielded a couple of calls in the last month on ‘seatgate,’ Fonterra’s decision to take drivers weighing over 150kg out of the driver’s seat until they’ve made the necessary adjustments to their health, at which point they’ll happily let them resume normal transmission. As you’d expect in this day and age, the callers weren’t impressed by this action. One caller told me that the company “hadn’t done their homework at all,” and that retro-fit kits ex-Europe, made specifically for the Volvo and Scania products, are available and allow the drivers weighing in at over the 150kg threshold to happily take the wheel. Sadly, both callers didn’t quite find the ear at the other end of the phone as sympathetic as they might have hoped. I think Fonterra’s decision is admirable, and I also believe their willingness to help those affected goes well beyond what I would consider reasonable. The whole situation is indicative of a significant proportion of society today where the phrase ‘personal accountability’ is considered almost a profanity. Fonterra have gone out of their way to tiptoe delicately through the modern PC minefield, expressing an understanding of how difficult it can be to lose weight, and even going to the extent of getting involved in personal health plans for those affected. That’s fine, but at what point does self-responsibility take over? The latest figures reveal New Zealand is third behind the US and Mexico on the fat podium. The current generation of kids will likely be the first that live a shorter life on average than their parents, due entirely to the health issues they’re likely to have. If we think the public health bill is crippling now, believe me, we haven’t seen anything yet. Metabolic syndrome will bring this country to its knees, mark those words.

Yes, there are body types that have a propensity to gain weight more rapidly than others, but life deals everyone a bum card on at least one thing. So manage it. I commend Fonterra on putting a stake in the ground. To a point, they’re also to be commended for getting involved in the solution. I guess it shows a genuine sense of community and care for staff and their families. On the other hand, unless those affected take some personal responsibility for rectifying the situation, not just for their sakes, but for their families and communities also, then frankly I think the company is pissing into a force nine hurricane. I’m sure there are plenty of Fonterra’s co-operative owners who keep up a satisfactory level of personal health from walking and working on the farm. I doubt they’ll tolerate endless amounts of their money being spent by the company on this problem. If Fonterra are going to continue to pay these employees while they’re not able to drive – as they’ve said they will – then maybe they should make them available to the co-operative’s farmer owners as free labour to tend to the farmer’s backlog of jobs? I’ll guarantee you’ll see the pounds disappear. From my perspective, I’m happy to discuss this with anyone who wants to call. However, can I just say this: make sure you do about three years’ solid research before you have a crack at me as I have a bit of ammunition in the war chest on this one. Oh, and if you do the research, I guarantee you won’t go near the phone!

Consultation opens on 110 km/h proposal

he NZ Transport Agency is inviting people to have their say on a proposal to introduce 110 km/h speed limits on the tolled section of the Tauranga Eastern Link Toll Road (SH2) and on the Cambridge section of the Waikato Expressway (SH1). Over the coming month, the NZTA will engage with stakeholders, road users and the local community on the proposed new 110km/h limit. The NZTA’s director safety and environment, Harry Wilson, says people can provide their feedback through the NZTA website, via email or by post. “It’s important that people have the opportunity to provide feedback, and all of the input we get from stakeholders, road users and the community will be considered before a final decision is made.” Wilson says these two roads have been selected first because they are some of the best in New Zealand. “The speed limit will only be increased to 110km/h on roads which can support higher travel speeds without compromising safety. “Both the Tauranga Eastern Link Toll Road and the Cambridge section of the Waikato Expressway have been

designed and will be maintained and operated to the necessary standards to safely support 110km/h travel speeds,” Wilson says. Submissions can be made via the NZTA website, email, or through post. Submissions close 5pm Wednesday 26 October 2017. If implemented, the new speed limit will be in operation on the tolled section of the Tauranga Eastern Link and the Cambridge section of the Waikato Expressway before the end of 2017. Any additional roads being considered for the 110km/h speed limit will also require consultation with local stakeholders, road users and the community. Other roads that will be considered in the future include the additional sections of the Waikato Expressway (SH1), the Upper Harbour Highway (SH18) in Auckland and Kapiti Expressway (SH1) near Wellington.

HPMV permit concerns

ational Road Carriers association executive officer Grant Turner has raised concerns about HPMV permit conditions being breached. “As an organisation and an industry a huge amount of work has been undertaken by many people and businesses to get NZTA and local Road Controlling Authorities (RCAs) on board with 50MAX and HPMV permitting, along with releasing roads etc for general access. “It is therefore extremely concerning to have advice from the industry that some people are failing to comply with conditions that are expressly detailed on permits when they are issued.” As an example, Turner said a permit for Kaipara Districts featured three structures (bridges or culverts) identified as OK Crawl Central, meaning the truck must travel at no more than 10kph over the central part of the structure (when laden). He said to hear that some operators were not complying with these types of conditions was a huge risk to the industry collectively, and the practice must cease. “Operators must ensure that their drivers are fully conversant with the conditions applicable in the permits under which they are operating. “Anyone found to be in breach of those conditions not only will face a substantial fine, but is also likely to lose any

such permits issued, and would also invite further scrutiny from NZTA regarding any other permits or compliance matters.” Turner said what was worse was that breaching permit conditions put the whole of the industry at risk with regard to RCAs (and NZTA) and their willingness to continue issuing permits to operators. “The conditions are there for a reason, for safety, and particularly to extend the life of the asset for as long as possible. If a structure were to fail due to operators and drivers failing to comply with such simple requirements, the damage to the whole industry’s reputation would be significant.” Turner said he wanted to be contacted about any permit breaching actions so he could speak with the operators concerned. “The same applies to any other compliance requirement for drivers when they are operating on a road, for example posted bridge restrictions. “I would ask that you all address this issue with your drivers as a matter of urgency as I have been advised that the local RCA where this is occurring is aware of some non-compliance issues and is monitoring this – and likely other areas – on their network.”

nltf is not a slush fund

oad Transport Forum chief executive Ken Shirley is warning political parties to stop using the National Land Transport Fund (NLTF) as a convenient slush fund for their pet projects. He said the latest proposal from New Zealand First to fund light rail projects in Wellington out of the NLTF and pay for that through road user charges (RUCs) showed a blatant disregard for the user-pays integrity of the fund and the RUC system. “The NLTF must remain ring-fenced and reinvested back from where it comes from.” Shirley said the reason the road transport industry broadly accepted the already-high level of road user charges was due to the direct relationship that RUCs had to the provision and maintenance of the roading network. Heavy vehicle RUCs are calculated using precise engineering models that determine the wear and tear caused by different types of heavy vehicles to the roading network.

“The vast majority of road user charges are paid for by the road transport industry and account for around 15% of an operator’s expenses. A further increase in RUC, as New Zealand First suggest, would therefore add significant costs to the freight task, which would ultimately have to be passed on to consumers. “Using the NLTF and RUCs for a project such as Wellington’s light rail destroys the integrity of the user-pays system and turns it into little more than a slush fund for politicians.” Shirley said if New Zealand First wanted to expand the use of the NLTF to pay for rail projects then they should consider introducing a ‘rail user charges’ scheme that would allow the fund to be used to maintain and develop the rail network while maintaining its overall integrity.

fact that skilled driving can have a direct impact on safety, fuel consumption, profitability, and carbon footprint. The results are a showcase for the opportunities driver development opens up for change and progress for drivers, haulage operators and society as a whole. Baxter recorded 10.1% less fuel consumption compared with the two runners-up. In the off-road category, Kim captured the top prize with a notable achievement of approximately 4% less fuel consumption relative to the driver in second place. At 27, Baxter was one of the youngest drivers participating in the competition. “It feels just amazing being here this evening and take the top prize in a competition that included some of the world’s best drivers,” he said. Commenting on what it takes to be a champion, Kim said, “Giving it all each day and building up the right skills over time is key to coming out on top of this competition.” Translated into a real-life context, the competition margins offer significant cost saving potential. For instance, during an average long haul operation of 150,000 kilometres, the on-road fuel efficiency margins could result in 5,000 fewer litres being used per truck each year. Reflecting on the achievements of the winners, Heléne Mellquist, senior vice president of Volvo Trucks International,

ohnny Baxter from Temuka Transport won the on-road category of the international Volvo Trucks Fuelwatch Challenge in September, with Korean driver Taehun Kim crowned the most fuel-efficient driver in the off-road category. Contestants from more than 13 countries took part in the annual Fuelwatch Challenge in Gothenburg, the hometown of Volvo Trucks. The contestants drove FH or FMX trucks on a specific course, and the competition once again tested and rewarded some of the world’s best drivers in fuel-efficient driving. The two-day event, which started with a session on driving technique, was the final showdown for national champions from local Fuelwatch competitions that took place throughout the year. More than 4,280 drivers participated in this year’s local competitions. The performances of the 11 on-road and seven off-road competitors were evaluated using Dynafleet, Volvo Trucks’ online transport information system. Dynafleet software monitored fuel consumption in real time and was used to gather accurate information on each driver’s performance. Introduced by Volvo Trucks, the Fuelwatch Challenge is an initiative that puts the spotlight on the driver. More than a competition, the Fuelwatch Challenge is a testament to the

At Volvo Trucks our biggest commitment is to driving progress for our customers, our industry and society as a whole. Drivers are, without a doubt, an integral part of this commitment. We will continue to help them excel in their profession and get the

IVECO mini-coach coming to Godzone

he market-leading features of Ivecoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Daily van range are now available in the people mover market with the brand launching a mini coach range, comprising two model variants standard with electric plug doors and rear air suspension. The new models will be introduced on the latest Daily platform which features a clean-running Euro5 engine and a host of safety enhancements. The entry-level Shuttle is based on a longer 4100mm-plus wheelbase with rear suspension and can seat up to 19 passengers plus the driver. It also features the generous H2 roof with

luggage racks. GVM for the Shuttle is 5.6 tonnes. Operators requiring an even higher end, premium finish can opt for the Executive. This 5.6 tonne GVM variant offers the same number of seats and

wheelbase specifications as the Shuttle but with a higher H3 roof (2010 mm standing height), larger luggage racks, extra space for passengers, and premium trim.

Simply add jobs, assign date and vehicles, and â&#x20AC;&#x201C; even better â&#x20AC;&#x201C; you can also make changes to these jobs, all from the new MyTrucking mobile app. A job is sent out to a driver and once their details are returned, it is auto priced and can be invoiced immediately. This new feature has been released to both Apple and Android devices.

There is no longer any possibility of missing out on revenue or jobs, and this allows you to simply run your whole business from anywhere, anytime. You can also turn on a feature to allow some drivers to have the ability to add jobs while on site, meaning no more jobs missed, and it makes it so much easier to keep track of what needs to be invoiced rather than waiting for that call or paperwork. MyTrucking is an online transport management system started three years ago by Wairarapa husband and wife team Sam and Sara Orsborn. Use of the system is growing rapidly among small to medium transport companies throughout Australasia.

National fleet breaking records

he Ministry of Transport’s Annual Vehicle Fleet Statistics show more than 3.6 million light vehicles are on our roads, with a record high of almost 307,000 light vehicles entering the fleet in 2016. Once scrapped vehicles are taken into account, the light vehicle fleet grew by more than 146,000 vehicles, the highest annual growth rate for the past 15 years. New Zealand now has about 774 light vehicles per 1,000 people. Vehicle kilometres travelled in 2016 increased by 4.6% to more than 45 billion kilometres – an average of 9,683km per person, the highest since 2007. With the entry of so many new vehicles, the light petrol fleet is becoming more fuel-efficient. The number of electric vehicles grew from 964 in 2015 to 2,438 in 2016. The average age of the light vehicle fleet has remained constant at 14 years, above the international average. The Annual Vehicle Fleet Statistics are available on the Ministry’s website: http://www.transport.govt.nz/research/ newzealandvehiclefleetstatistics/

Road Transport kept Auckland moving

ith fuel now flowing through the pipeline from Marsden Point to the Wiri Oil Services terminal and air services largely back on track, it is worth reflecting on the critical role the road transport industry played in alleviating the shortage, said Road Transport Forum chief executive Ken Shirley. “While it was a completely different type of event, the response has some parallels with the Kaikoura earthquake,” said Shirley. “Within hours of the pipe rupturing, road transport operators put plans in place to begin carting fuel to Auckland and other parts of the country where it was needed.” Shirley said the great advantage of the road transport industry is in its inherent flexibility and responsiveness. “Even in normal circumstances road freight is a ‘just-intime’ industry used to dealing with tight timeframes, so when something like this happens operators are able to respond very quickly. “Credit must also go to the Government, NZTA, and Auckland Transport for helping to facilitate the transportation of fuel by temporarily suspending weight limits and allowing trucks to use routes usually off-limits.” Shirley said without the flexibility and agility of the road transport industry the consequences of events such as this would be much more severe. “Road transport operators who stepped in and helped alleviate the crisis deserve our recognition and thanks,” said Shirley.

Northern end of the Whirokino Trestle.

Painful detour’s days are numbered

ork is well underway to replace two existing bridges on SH1 between Levin and Foxton. The replacements will enable more efficient heavy freight movements on SH1, improve safety, and provide a better environment for cycling. The existing bridges are Class 1 and 50MAX capable, but HPMV need to travel via Shannon, a 14km detour. Constructed in 1938, the Whirokino Trestle Bridge is a 1.1km-long, reinforced concrete bridge over the Moutoa Floodway and adjacent floodplain, while the Manawatu River Bridge is a 180m-long, structural steel bridge over

the Manawatu River, constructed in 1942. Investigations identified a preferred option for the replacement of both bridges on an alignment immediately to the west of the existing SH1. The project cost is estimated to be $70 million and the works will take between two and three years to complete. A temporary staging bridge has been constructed to provide access across the Manawatu River, allowing materials to be transported onto the site without affecting SH1 road users. The staging bridge will be removed once the new bridges are completed.

Vijay’s threepeat!

rucks & Trailers van specialist Vijay Chhagn has been named Mercedes-Benz Van’s top salesman for the third year in a row. As part of his prize Chhagn won a trip to Austria for the launch of the Mercedes-Benz X-Class. Chhagn puts his continued success down to many factors. “It’s probably down to the relationship with our customers, our head office, and even the dealership staff – we all get on. We’ve all got a common goal to get on with the job and that contributes to our success. With our management team, Mark Wright is really focused on vans, and we’re in the heart of Auckland so we sell our fair share of vans.” Trucks & Trailers expect to receive the first shipment of X-Class in 2018, and are planning to build a state-ofthe-art Mercedes-Benz Van & Ute showroom at their Manukau premises.

The new Mack Anthem

Mack Anthem dash

A new Anthem for the US

n September Mack Trucks introduced its new, nextgeneration highway truck in the US – the Mack Anthem. Mack Trucks president Dennis Slagle rates the Anthem as one of the most significant new trucks in the company’s history. “The incredible result is a truck that’s been built for our customers’ businesses and designed for drivers, all while delivering the power and presence that only a Mack truck can deliver.” With a bold grille and prominent Mack badge, the Anthem features a new exterior design with optimised aerodynamics. New driving and sleeping environments have an emphasis on increasing comfort and productivity. The Anthem is available in several configurations, including a Day Cab, a 48-inch Flat Top Sleeper, and a 70-inch Stand-Up Sleeper. Jonathan Randall, senior vice president, sales, Mack Trucks North America, says thousands of drivers were surveyed and their feedback was incorporated to deliver a functional, strong, efficient highway truck. While the aerodynamic enhancements improve fuel efficiency by up to 3%, the redesigned hood and bumper also feature three-piece construction for improved serviceability in the event of damage. A central latch release below the grille eliminates the need for drivers to walk from side to side to tilt the hood. All interior and exterior lighting on the Anthem is now exclusively LED, meaning brighter, longer-lasting lights that draw less energy. The change to LED is most noticeable on the Anthem’s headlights, which are 66% brighter than today’s bulb. Gauges on the instrument panel have been positioned higher for better driver visibility, while HVAC controls and the Mack mDRIVE automated manual transmission (AMT) shift pad have been relocated closer to the driver’s fingertips. The Anthem also features a new flat-bottom steering wheel, a Class 8 trucking industry first, providing improved dash visibility, as well as easier ingress and egress. The Anthem is available with the 13-litre Mack MP8 engine producing up to 376kW (505hp) and 2,521Nm (1,860lb/ft) of torque depending on spec. The 11-litre Mack MP7 is also available as an option.

Mack’s SuperEconodyne downspeeding packages are available with both Mack MP7 and MP8 engines. Mack’s 12-speed mDRIVE AMT is standard on all Anthem models, and the reinforced and ruggedised mDRIVE HD AMTs are available as an option. Additionally, mDRIVE HD 13- and 14-speed variants are available, which add one or two low-ratio creeper gears. 

Hall of fame inductees 2017 An audience of about 550 gathered at Transport World in Invercargill on 29 September to welcome five new inductees into the Road Transport Hall of Fame. One guest said it was wonderful to see everyone in their best outfits, even if he thought some of the truck drivers looked a little uncomfortable!

ive well-known names in the industry were inducted this year and guests were treated to colourful stories of their exploits, illustrating why they were chosen to join the Hall of Fame. Sadly one of the inductees, Matt Purvis, died in 2015, so his wife Heather accepted the award on his behalf. She said he was a humble man and receiving the award posthumously would have suited him very well.

Kerry Arnold Kerry Arnold grew up surrounded by Caterpillar bulldozers his father operated for the Public Works Department. Kerry worked afternoons at a local garage while training for a Certificate in Engineering. He was offered an apprenticeship as a motor mechanic but instead took on a mechanical apprenticeship at the Ministry of Works workshop. In 1987 he became the technical officer at the New Zealand Road Transport Association and still represents the industry today. A member of the NRB axle weights and loadings committee and the Institute of Road Transport Engineers New Zealand, in the mid-2000s Kerry was appointed Road Transport Forum technical manager.

In the early-2010s he presented to the Australian Road Freight Advisory Council on New Zealand’s experience with Operator Rating Systems and helped lower bound vehicles to operate at class 1 axle limits, which has since evolved into 50MAX. Kerry is held in high regard throughout the country for his work for the Road Transport industry. In 2013 he received the IRTENZ Transport Award for Outstanding Industry Service.

Dave Carden From an early age Dave Carden was fascinated with mechanics. At 17 he began a fitter turner apprenticeship before transferring to an apprenticeship in precision welding. After working offshore as a marine engineer, he returned and became a fitter turner before changing direction to become a petrol and diesel mechanic. At 28 Dave founded Southside Motor Engineering and used his Kiwi ingenuity to make his own equipment. In 1967 he become workshop manager for Jack Tidd Ross Todd Ltd (now TRT). In 1982 Dave signed what became known as ‘the Game Changer’, relinquishing his company’s right to the Import Duty Protection Licence. This action allowed the local crane industry to import cheaper cranes from overseas. By 1987 the Carden family owned TRT outright. After a period of growth in the late 1990s Dave stepped back from his role as managing director but remained as a director on the board. 2017 marks 50 years for TRT, 30 years with Dave and his family at the helm.

Fleming McDowall Fleming McDowall began driving trucks at 16 and worked for his parents’ transport business, F J McDowall. At 23 Fleming operated three trucks for his parent’s company. Three years later he and wife Margaret started rural transport business F W McDowall in Browns, where the head office still is today. As the 1950s progressed Fleming moved into stock cartage, and then gravel after taking over Bob James’ business.

WWW.GOCLEAR.CO.NZ By 1983 he had about 23 trucks working on rural cartage. During the rural decline of the early 1980s he decided to move into line haul freight, eventually establishing depots all over New Zealand. In 1989 Fleming’s hard work was rewarded with the welldeserved Southland Business of the Year Award. Fleming continued to expand F W McDowall’s rural transport in Southland, adding Otapiri Transport and Dipton Transport to the fleet in 1988, and later Kapiti Freight, Andimac, and the Mt Cook group freight division. By 1997 the company had 16 branches, 21 depots, 220 staff, and a fleet of more than 150 vehicles.

Matt Purvis Matt grew up on a farm in Pongaroa and was was always interested in heavy machinery. After leaving school he became a truck driver, which led to a job as despatcher/ manager at Nationwide Transport. In 1977 he and wife Heather partnered with Paddy Collins to start Total Transport, later buying out Paddy. Total Transport carted livestock, wool and farm goods. During the 1980s when the rural sector boomed, and the company thrived. When the rural sector declined in the 1990s they went into timber as well as rural freight. By 2000 timber was the dominant product carted. A deal with Ravensdown for a transit store to backload fertiliser from timber jobs kept Total Transport’s trucks loaded and saved everyone money. The couple sold the company in 2002 but continued to run it for several years.

Matt ensured his employees were 100% committed to customer service. Their slogan ‘On Time, Every Time’ was the philosophy that drove every employee, from management to apprentice. Matt retired in 2006 due to ill health, sadly passing away in 2015 at the age of 69.

Mike Uhlenberg Mike Uhlenberg spent his childhood on his parent’s Taranaki dairy farm. After leaving school he became apprentice linotype printer. In the weekends he helped with his father’s new bus company, later leaving the printing business to drive for a local dairy company. Following a stint in Australia as a driver, he returned home. In 1966 Mike and wife Carol secured a Ministry of Works Contract. When the contract ended Mike drove for local farmers, before buying another two trucks and a general goods licence. In 1971 the couple purchased a secondhand Kenworth for carting native logs, realising the big equipment was the way to go. This proved true when the Kapuni gas field began producing LPG as their big machinery could carry large loads with ease. In 1978 they purchased Eltham Transport. Mike’s LPG fleet continued to grow and they purchased the local fertiliser store to complement their rural cartage division. Carol was tragically killed in 1997 and Mike stepped back from the business. Today he is a regular visitor to the depot, and in his spare time works on his classic vehicles and bulldozers. 

Low ridin’ is all the torque Story by Dave McCoid

Waitomo Petroleum doesn’t bring new suppliers into the fold without good reason. Adding the DAF brand to the truck stable of this truly Kiwi company was as much about the ins-and-outs of fuel distribution as it was about improved on-road performance. 26

New Zealand Trucking

here are few places that instil a sense of heartland New Zealand more than the King Country. Whether it’s down to the stories of people like Sir David Fagan or the late Sir Colin Meads, or simply the rugged rolling country that beckons opportunity to those with a will to work, it’s hard to say. Whatever the reason, it certainly instils any native of Godzone with a sense of identity. From a commercial standpoint, Waitomo Petroleum is one of the region’s home-grown success stories. Hailing from Te Kuiti and celebrating seven decades in business this year, Waitomo’s brand today is as crisp, clean, and professional as you’ll find anywhere; increasing its presence in the market constantly, tied to a catch cry that’s bound to win many hearts – Kiwis Fueling Kiwis. It’s a family owned company with a culture instilled by founder Des Ormsby of building relationships with honesty and integrity. As such, relationships with staff, customers, and suppliers can be long-lived, and introducing new suppliers is not something done on a whim. For anyone with an interest in trucks, the names Waitomo Petroleum and Fuso/Mitsubishi have traditionally gone hand in hand. However, in recent times DAF has made an appearance in the Waitomo blue and white. This month’s test truck is the first of four CF85s due to join the fleet in the next two years. And the surprises don’t stop there… it has a gear lever! New Zealand Trucking spent a couple of days with the truck, driver Nathan Poroa, fleet manager Lou Forhecz, and MD Jimmy Ormsby, grandson of founder Des, to find out what’s happening at Waitomo Petroleum.

The ins and outs of the DAF’s arrival Waitomo Petroleum’s traditional business was built around the distribution and storage of fuel and lubricants. In addition to service station deliveries, the trucks are fitted with pumps and meters to facilitate delivery to onsite tanks, or directly into machines at commercial, contractor, harbourside and farm sites throughout the King Country, Waikato, Coromandel, Bay of Plenty and South Auckland. Over the last quarter century, the company has relied heavily on the Mitsubishi/Fuso product, historically via longstanding supplier William Gill and Sons, and since changes in the dealership structure, Keith Andrews Trucks. Lou said the great relationship with Gills remains through the company’s servicing facilities in Huntly and Auckland. Models like the FV430 were ideally suited to the nature of a Waitomo driver’s work programme. Often running truck-only for extended periods, a Waitomo truck can commonly make 300 deliveries in the course of a monthly cycle. In this work the Fuso proved costeffective and fit for purpose. However, the FV430’s replacement, the HD470 (Ref New Zealand Trucking main test July 17 and Sept 15) isn’t so well adjusted to the job’s requirements. Having a substantially higher cab and an extra step was significant. In the Waitomo operation that could mean 600 extra vertical steps a month – 300 up and 300 down. That has time, safety, and biomechanical wear and tear implications. The company didn’t want a move away from a truck that was easy to get in and out of.

The torque around power requirement

It wasn’t just changes in the Fuso product that led to Waitomo rethinking the supplier arrangement on the bigger gear, it was changes in their own business. Under the stewardship of Jimmy Ormsby, Waitomo Petroleum have increased their presence in the retail and business-to-business market, opening a network of high profile company owned self-service outlets in high traffic flow areas that complement their traditional, largely rural, owner-operator service stations. This has meant a significant shift in distribution requirements, with more truck and trailer combinations needed to cope with the increased volume. It’s interesting to note that the second DAF, due in the next couple of months, will be the first bulk tanker in the company’s history i.e. not set up with pumps and meters for site delivery work. The changing nature of the gear meant more grunt was needed. The Waitomo units will run at 46 tonne for the truck and trailer pump units and 50MAX for the ‘bulkies’. The company wanted something a bit beyond the 346kW and 2227Nm the Fuso HD 470 offered. They figured a truck in the 373kW bracket with a bit more torque would fit the bill.

You shall go to the ball – the DAF was a perfect fit

Although Fuso, UD, the Volvo FM, and the CF DAF had been considered in the initial selection process, the entry and power considerations eliminated the two Japanese marques early in the piece. That left the two Euro giants to slug it out. The final and telling factor was Cinderella-like in its simplicity. In the life of a fuel tanker, the tank will see out two chassis before its own life draws to an end. That meant whatever fitted on the departing Fuso trucks had to fit as near as perfect on whatever was coming in. In other words, if the slipper fitted you went to the ball, if it didn’t it was sayonara with the other two, or in the case of the Volvo, hej då.

Delivering more than the product Both Jimmy Ormsby and Lou Forhecz have been hugely complimentary about dealings with Southpac Trucks. Salesman for the DAFs has been Andrew (Scotty) Haberfield. “Southpac have been just fantastic to deal with right from the outset,” said Lou. “A great example is the build for the third and fourth trucks due next year. Southpac requested a meeting with us, and Neil Boys from Tanker Engineering. The purpose for the meeting was to ascertain what could be done on the trucks ex-factory to facilitate a faster passage into service. With a pump truck there’s a lot of hosing, meters, pumps, not to mention cones etc that have to go on board. Add to that all the kit that comes with SCR emissions systems and you can understand that chassis space on an eight-wheeler quickly becomes the premium asset. On our trucks we’ve moved the DEF tank and some of the wiring loom cradles to optimise chassis utility. Chassis three and four will come prepped to our spec ex-factory. You can’t do better than that.” Waitomo have not gone for fleet maintenance or extended oil drain on the MX engine. The Southpac branches in Wiri and Te Rapa service the trucks. “The timing of the new Southpac facility here in Hamilton couldn’t have been better,” said Lou. “It’s a fantastic and to date we’ve had exceptional service.” One aspect of the Waitomo Petroleum move that won’t change is the tank build and fit-out being done by Tanker Engineering Specialists Ltd. The relationship between the two companies is longstanding and Lou simply says, “We wouldn’t go anywhere else. We have one tank in the fleet that’s not one of Neil’s [Neil Boys – CEO of Tanker Engineering] and that came as part of the buy-back from Mobil. It’s nearing the end of its life and once it’s gone that’ll be it. Neil’s products are superb, and his IP around tanker building is second to none.”

WWW.GOCLEAR.CO.NZ “If you’re going to have to do huge structural mods to a tank sub-frame in order for it to fit on the new truck, you may as well build a new tank,” said Lou Forhecz. “Whatever we bought had to take the tanks with the least amount of fuss, and on this count the DAF was a stand out winner. “This process had nothing to do with dissatisfaction with the Fuso product. Had Fuso been able to fulfil the requirement, we’d have had no reason to change. We’ll likely still use the Fuso product for mini tanker operations, continuing to use Gills for servicing. They’ve always been excellent to deal with,” said Lou.

The DAF’s DNA

As with all OEMs the 13-litre motor is going to be huge in PACCAR’s diesel future. NOx and particulate can be dealt with by deploying clever chemistry, but their equally nasty cohort CO2 requires a reduced fuel burn to send packing, and that means the new go-to motor for diesel powered road transport generally is likely to be 13 litre or less. In fact looking forward, 11 and even 9-litre power plants will commonly be seen in bigger applications on the world’s highways. The MX first appeared in the DAF stable in 2002 as the

engine to see the company through Euro 4 and 5. It’s had a solid evolution, with an enhanced range released in 2013 that targeted improved performance and on-board diagnostics. In New Zealand the MX first arrived in 2008 in Euro 5 trim and has certainly proven its worth to many an operator. Nowadays the engine can also be regularly found nestled between the rails of DAF’s iconic stablemate Kenworth, and should you be having a snoop around the traps stateside, Peterbilt. The unit in the Waitomo truck is the top of the range 12.9litre variant producing 375kW (510hp) and 2500Nm (1850lf/ ft) of torque. It’s a Euro 5 engine, deploying PACCAR’s SMART injection technology (essentially meaning electrohydraulic injectors), and SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) in order to achieve its clean air status. The engine produces peak torque from 1000 to 1410rpm and peak power from 1500 to 1900rpm. However, at the point where peak torque starts to tail off, it’s already a hair over 373kW (500hp). On the road that all equates to real progress. As for the gearbox, it was a surprise to see the manual option in the DAF. It’s one of those trucks you naturally climb into and expect to see what looks like the switch from a wall-mounted heater, but with letters and turtles written

Setting up a traditional Waitomo pump tanker is no easy mission, and finding homes for all that’s required is almost like musical chairs. Clockwise from top: Tanks, pumps, valve bank, fire extinguisher, isolators and spill kit…it’s all got to go somewhere. Southpac have been proactive in ensuring the third and fourth chassis are ‘Waitomo-ready’ ex-factory.

on it instead of hot and cold. On this occasion, however, the transmission unit is the venerable Eaton 18-speed Roadranger RTLO20918B. According to Lou it was a decision based largely on tradition, and taking into account the variations and trickiness of many rural delivery points. The Roadranger product has served the company impeccably well and they saw no need to change. Having said that, Southpac have put Lou in front of a number of satisfied AMT customers so he can hear testimonials on their experience with the modern alternative to the manual gearbox. The next DAF, the bulk delivery unit, will have an AMT, and from that point decisions on the last two will be made. Front suspension comprises parabolic springs and shock absorbers and in the rear a Meritor 46-160 single-reduction tandem axle set sits on an Air Glide 400 8-bag set up. Braking is courtesy of front disc with rear drum, and as you’d expect, ABS and EBS are there. GVM on the DAF is 25800kg and the GCM is 58000kg. All in all, anyone writing out the cheque is not going to be having any sleepless nights thinking, “What the hell have I just bought?”

– has been a no-go. Customers lining up at Southpac branches to buy DAFs knew what they were, and where their strengths lay. End result? Acceptance.

On the road

We jumped aboard with the DAF’s driver Nathan Poroa at Warkworth, heading for places south. The immediate impression you get from the CF85 cab is spaciousness. It’s light and airy and Nathan’s position is low and there’s lots of room around him. Pretty much straight away he points out the leg-room he’s got compared with the Fuso he came off. Impression number two is sound, or lack thereof, and thoughts immediately return to Mark Fletcher’s Actros in August’s issue, or Regal’s Volvo in April. Nathan pulls away from the lights and up a slight rise, changing up through the gears with intent in order to get the show rolling; the sound meter bobbles around 63 – 64dB.

Make yourself at home

If you look at the recent history of highway trucks in New Zealand you’d have to say that DAF’s meteoric rise on the local scene since they first appeared on the cusp of the new century has been impressive. There have been few trucks that have become ‘part of the furniture’ so quickly, and that’s not an easy thing to do. Arguably the honesty with which the trucks were presented to the market is at least partly responsible. The DAF’s always been its own truck, ideally suited to its own target market, and PACCAR are to be commended for honouring that, not so much in the brand’s Netherlands’ home – or wider Europe for that matter – that’s a no brainer, but certainly in the globe’s more distant regions. Sure, there’s part sharing done between the family brands where it makes sense, but rebadging trucks – implying they’re something they’re not

The DAF has stamped its mark on the New Zealand road transport scene.

WWW.GOCLEAR.CO.NZ Puke to Port Hedland and back Thirty-nine-year-old Nathan Poroa was born and raised in Tuakau, moving to Pukekohe when he was 19. He has been driving at Waitomo for three years. “It’s a great job and a great company; I can’t fault them. I’m home every night – well, apart from at the moment with the pipeline…my youngest boy’s wondering where I am,” he laughs. His dad Jackson is an engineer and mum Lynn runs the family chicken farms in South Auckland. Nathan’s one of three children – two boys, and a girl – and is a cabinet maker who went truck driving 15 years ago when work dried up and his uncle was looking for drivers. With the exception of a short stint behind the hammer a few years back, he’s been driving ever since. “I love it, it’s great. I started off with my uncle’s business, Multi-Trans, on an F12 Volvo doing transporter and overdimensional work. It was a great place to start as I learnt from the get-go not to rush, and how to be gentle on the gear, yet get the job done.” Nathan did a stint at Balle Bros in Pukekohe and NZ Crane Hire before heading to West Australia to try his hand over there. “Tammy and the boys moved to Brisbane while I was out

We’re loaded with diesel to about 44.5 tonne, giving us healthy 11.5hp/tonne. There’s a new drawbar coming with an extra metre in it so Nathan can get to his 46 tonne target. That will mean he can fully load both 18,000-litre barrels with petrol, although diesel will still weigh out before the tanks reach capacity. The DAF appears to shrug off any task assigned to it, and we pick up speed quickly. Nathan keeps the tach in the green and as it is with modern trucks driven well, it’s an utterly no-fuss affair. The first obstacle was the climb up and over the Pohuehue Viaduct. At the steepest pinch just before the bridge the CF85 dipped to 33km/h, but for the most part romped up at 36km/h in high fifth at just on 1500rpm. So we were climbing right on

west. It made it easier. I drove road-train side tippers in Port Hedland for three years – Kenworth 904s,” said Nathan. “It was a great adventure but Port Hedland is not the sort of place you’d want to stay. Four years ago it was time to head back.” Upon returning Nathan worked at NZ Crane Hire again before the opportunity came up at Waitomo Petroleum. He, Tammy and the boys live in Pukekohe. Life is good.

peak power and a slightly off peak torque by about 150lb/ft. That means it probably would have lived with 6th low as well. As it frees up that will certainly be the case. Down Schedways Hill Nathan engaged the compression exhaust brake combo. It’s a system that works simultaneously and affords about 320kW (426hp) of holdback at 2100rpm. We weren’t in the sort of country where Nathan really needed to work the retardation within an inch of its life to preserve service brakes. You could feel the influence for sure, but if you were taking your DAF into rugged New Zealand at 50MAX weights, then it’s another compelling reason for considering the AMT transmission that comes with the gearbox retarder option. The next Waitomo DAF will have both. Out through the tunnels and the big lazy rolling country at the top of the Northern Motorway into Auckland is a great playground for the DAF. It’s the sort of country where engines of this displacement and performance profile work best, keeping the mass rolling and road speed up. “The torque and power really is the thing that makes it,” Nathan said. “With more and more trailer work, it’s what we need. Having to shoot up to Marsden Point at the moment with the pipeline and all that, it’s just no problem.” When quizzed on other comparisons between the Fuso and DAF, Nathan talked about handling when loaded. “The DAF’s taken a wee bit of getting used to. There’s nothing wrong, it’s just different. In the Fuso you didn’t know you had a load of fluid on, it could have been anything. In the DAF you know you have a liquid load,” said Nathan. “The front axle spread is totally different and we’re talking air versus mechanical rear suspension of course. There’s also more of a gap between the cab and tank. I guess it all contributes. It’s just a totally different machine.” In and around the city it’s a busy cab with the manual stick.

AMTs do make hours spent on city deliveries less hectic, however Nathan’s customer base ranges from South Auckland to Raglan so it’s all good. Once a pump-over from truck and trailer to customer bunker was done in Auckland it was out to the big Bombay site for a gravity drop and then back north again. Rolling along the hot-mix surface at 90km/h and 1400rpm the in-cab decibels dropped to sub-60. On the Marsden Point to Auckland pipeline rescue work, the DAF has been running at a fraction under 2.0kpl. Given its age and normal run schedule, Waitomo can expect the DAF to be both a help and a hindrance to the bottom line, depending on whose seat you’re sitting in.

A day in your life

There’s nothing more truthful than the old phrase you can’t have it all. Waitomo chose the DAF for access, power, and asset compatibility and on all those counts it’s a proposition difficult to fault. However, lowering the cab results in an engine tunnel and the absence of a sleeper reduces available storage somewhat. There’s overhead shelving, a wee glovebox with a bits-and-pieces place under it in the centre of the dash, a document locker and cup holder on the tunnel, and door pockets. In Nathan’s words “It’s enough, just”. It’s interesting when you look at different approaches. Fuso go for to a tsunami of storage options across the engine tunnel with everything that opens and closes, whereas DAF keep it more chic and Euro, but you need to cross off the unessentials. The cockpit is certainly a beautifully designed area. The dash is a typical Euro affair with gauges for only those things DAF think you’ll understand. There’s a central digital interface with a knob on the upper right of a wrapped dash for menu selections. The rest of the wrap houses switches, entertainment, storage, climate and parking, with a trailer brake control sitting out on the central part of the dash like the cousin who lives at your place and won’t leave. The smart wheel houses cruise and phone controls. Mirrors on the DAF are superb, and the remote control is nicely located on the driver’s door.

Seventy years and pumping! In 1947, Mobil Oil NZ approached Te Kuiti businessman Des Ormsby about taking on the local distribution of the company’s products in the King Country. At the time Des owned and ran two businesses, Waitomo Transport Ltd and Waitomo Lime Ltd, and was a Mobil customer himself. Negotiations we duly undertaken, and Waitomo Transport was appointed the Mobil agent in the King Country. “In those days fuel was distributed by rail to the nearest railhead,” says Jimmy Ormsby, Des’ grandson and current MD. “My grandfather stored the fuel off the rail tanker in a bulk storage facility and then distributed product throughout the King Country region.” The Carroll Street site in Te Kuiti – where the company still operates a tanker from today – opened in 1953, was rebuilt and reopened in 1977, and served as the head office until the move to Hamilton in 1991. The arrival of the fuel distribution opportunity signalled the end of the general carrying business, which was shed in the fifties, the lime continuing through the sixties and first half of the seventies, at which point Des decided to sell that too, in order to concentrate on the growing Waitomo Transport Mobil agency operation. Deregulation swept through all facets of New Zealand business in the 80s, calling for consolidation and optimisation, but often resulting in mergers and acquisition. At the time, Waitomo Transport merged with several other Mobil distribution agencies to form a larger entity. This reduced the Ormsby family holding to that of a minority shareholder, with Mobil Oil NZ being the majority shareholder. The new company was called Waitomo Brenan for a short time, before being changed to Waitomo Petroleum Limited in 1989. “Des thought there wasn’t a lot of future in the business for our family as minority shareholders,” says Jimmy. “His advice to my father, Grey, had been to get out of the business.” But the future about to unfold would change everything. In 1998 Exxon and Mobil entered into a $250bn mega-

merger to form Exxon-Mobil. It would eventually trigger a global restructure. Just after Des’ passing in 2001 aged 88, the family was given the opportunity to either sell their shares or buy Mobil’s shareholding in Waitomo. Not surprisingly they took option two, and in 2002 the business was once again 100% Kiwi and 100% family owned. In 2003, Jimmy returned to New Zealand from overseas and took on a sales representative role in the company. “I’d grown up around the business, helping with pumpovers or home deliveries in the holidays. As I got older those holiday jobs turned into doing stock surveys at stations and things like that. I went overseas and did my OE, driving tractors and bar work. I returned home with my Scottish bride to work in the business,” says Jimmy. “I worked up through the company starting in sales in 2003 and moved into my role as MD in April 2016. Throughout this time I have had the benefit of learning from my Dad as well as long-serving Waitomo managers and some exceptional independent directors, past and present. Without a doubt having my Dad around to bounce ideas off and provide the wisdom and advice that only experience brings has been a great help to me. The company has grown significantly over the past few years and it gives you confidence knowing you have that guidance you can trust implicitly,” says Jimmy. “There’s no doubt that the Mobil years also taught us things around process and product management that were hugely beneficial. We were able to take away a lot of IP from the experience and apply it immediately to enable the business to evolve rapidly.” WAITOMO PETROLEUM today may appear a far cry from the Te Kuiti railhead of 1947, however the values of honesty and integrity that Jimmy’s grandfather wanted to build his business on are still evident. It doesn’t take too much digging to find people in the company with significant service histories. A great example of the Waitomo culture is truck planning. The drivers are essentially account managers, looking after the stocks and planning their own days. They discuss

requirements directly with customers and cooperate with each other on things like spare capacity for loads that need a home. “You won’t find a planner here,” says fleet manager Lou Forhecz. “The guys sort their own customers. It works really well, and it’s unique to us. The customers love it and the drivers have a far greater sense of ownership.” Other Waitomo philosophies include one man one truck, and day shift only. Lou said the Waitomo style worked incredibly well, and while truck utility may not be that of other companies, the whole self-managing package had huge payback in terms of a greater sense of pride – a driver’s truck is also his office. “We have very few customer and stock issues ever.” We asked Jimmy about his years and what flavour his tenure will bring to the business. “Our heritage business will always be important, but technology has been the enabler of our ability to take the brand to the end customer, both business and retail. We have some wonderful new sites including the flagship Bombay facility. For me it’s improving our ability to get product to market and increasing brand visibility.” Jimmy credits the company’s success during the first 70 years to competitive yet sustainable pricing, a commitment to long-term business relationships, and maintaining high quality equipment and systems so customers never feel let down. Today the Waitomo Petroleum head office is still located on the 12,000sq metre Ellis Street property in Hamilton. The fleet comprises 16 large tankers and seven trailers run by Lou Forhecz, and 13 mini tankers – all Mitsubishi and Fuso Fighters – based in Wiri under the control of Phill Cole. “Our challenge is to keep looking ahead and to position Waitomo to succeed in whatever environment it may have to operate in,” says Jimmy. “We are fortunate to be here, and are grateful to all the people who have contributed to Waitomo’s success. “I guess every generation wants to leave the business in a stronger position than when they took over; I’m no different.”

they scored it so highly. Three steps into a low cab with two large hooped grab handles on the A and B pillars. It’s enough to make any helmet, goggle, ear-muff, hi-vis, toe-capped boot, loaded key chain-wearing health and safety supervisor weep with joy. Fit, finish and materials are as you’d expect from Europe. DAF do ‘cleanable style’ extremely well. The fuse box lid did wiggle around loosely in its home – picky eh! – but that tells you the standard achieved by the rest of the interior. Our entire time with the DAF was on bitumen and so the ride was what you’d expect. It was good to get a few kilometres on some of lower Northland’s atrocious surfaces, but there’s nothing to say, the DAF was unfazed, and gave a typical European soak-it-up with the right amount of feel response. We’re all used to the CF DAF look obviously, but the famous ‘hip’ in the door and segmented side windows are something you either love or hate. It’s entirely individual.

Conclusions

Waitomo Petroleum is buying DAFs for good, solid commercial reasons. They’re not a company that takes changing suppliers lightly, but their growing and diversifying business, along with a change in product profile from their existing truck supplier, signalled the need for something different. They went in search of an improved performance profile, on a truck that didn’t compromise their entry and exit requirements, and accommodated existing tank assets as close to seamlessly as possible. So far the first of four DAF 8x4s has delivered on these requirements admirably. Both truck and supplier have got the thumbs up from owner and driver alike. 

Storage in the DAF is as you’d expect for a lower profile day cab. There’s enough but no hoarders please. It’s a great work environment with plenty of space around the driver and an open, airy and spacious feel. Very different from the Fuso cab Nathan came from.

WWW.GOCLEAR.CO.NZ Dave’s DAF adventure Come the holiday season a large chunk of Auckland heads for the sunny Coromandel to de-stress, and as such freight volumes into the region go silly. In the Christmas holiday season of 2014/15 – just before starting as editor at the magazine – I helped out Halls Group with overflow volumes into the region, providing backup to locally based driver Bob Harris on a DAF XF105, the CF’s bigger cabbed brother. It was my first foray into the DAF brethren. The things that hit home on my first drive up to Auckland to load were the materials used and the ambience in the cab. The DAF cab interior conveyed a sense of quality materials, well put together and easily maintained. I get Waitomo’s enthusiasm for the truck’s performance too. I wondered how a 13-litre engine producing 510hp, running at 50 tonne on nine axles, would go when poked into the Coromandel, but what a willing worker the MX was. Its on-road characteristics do belie the performance data sheet somewhat, enhanced by a really nice symbiosis in that truck between engine and ZF-AS Tronic AMT. There were only a couple of instances early on in the month or so I drove the DAF that I thought, “Oh, I wouldn’t

have made that change Mr Truck. You were a bit tough on yourself there.” Obviously, as I got to know the truck I was able to intervene and prevent unnecessary shifts, but in all honesty those interventions were only on three or four typically weird bits of Coromandel pavement. The rest of the time it was ‘A all the way’. Coming from a US heritage in terms of trucks driven, the DAF for me scored highly and did itself massively proud. We left the best of mates, and I was sad to walk away from it for the last time.

‘Daddy Cool’ was the R600 Mack owned by North Otago Road Metals Co Ltd that suddenly appeared on posters in book shops and stationers all over New Zealand in the late 70s. Truck-mad Kiwi kids were starved of any local truck memorabilia and the famous photo taken by Oamaru photographer Kevin Keppel was hoovered up as quick as it appeared in the poster racks. Back in the day it was Daddy Cool that made North Otago Road Metals a known brand in houses all over the country, and certainly helped Mack reach the status it had by the 80s. Murray Francis recalls the famous truck and the publicity around it. “It was given this name by the original driver Peter McDowell because of its Intercooled engine. Peter got this truck brand new in 1977 and certainly went all-out on the paint job and the bits and pieces he attached. The name ‘Daddy Cool’ was painted in gold leaf paint. “The photo was taken just out of Oamaru and it was the first truck poster that ever went on sale in the shops. And it wasn’t only the poster; handkerchiefs with the same photo were also for sale in the shops. Peter drove the truck for about a year and then I drove it for another two and a half years after him. A lot of children had this poster on their walls of their bedrooms and I certainly took a lot of them for a ride in the truck. Sometimes I had three

children sitting on the single passenger seat. A lot of times when working on the Haast Highway, or the Te Anau to Milford road, there would be parents taking photos of the truck when spreading, or turning around on the road. Their boy was generally in the car, and I would offer to take him (or them) for a ride, with the parents picking them up down the road. Sometimes the Dad also came for a ride, with the Mum driving the car to the pick-up zone.”

Something special “It was an absolute pleasure painting the Mack for Road Metals. I was honoured to be given this opportunity and very proud New Zealand Trucking magazine thought so highly of my work,” says artist Rochelle Thomas. Rochelle says she personally voted for the truck and was so excited to hear it had won. “I haven’t painted many Mack trucks and the loader gave it that little something extra – an action shot! I’d love the opportunity to paint more like it – the more machinery and the bigger the better!” Rochelle is a self-taught artist and says her skills grow with every painting she completes. “I enjoy every aspect of my job; well it’s not just a job to me, it’s a passion! It’s such a rewarding thing to do, making people smile every single day.”

company trucks have featured in numerous publications and won many awards at shows they’ve attended. New Zealand Trucking asked Murray Francis where the desire to make the trucks show pieces originated. “It has always been there, but the bar was lifted with Daddy Cool’s original driver Peter McDowell. He was next level to anyone around at the time. He kept the truck absolutely immaculate, constantly polishing and painting the rims, even hand pin-striping the paint line on the bottom dump semi it towed. If you look in the poster you can see the lines and pin stripes he painted on the sides of the gooseneck. Sometimes it was too much and he probably should have been with his family. Taking over Daddy Cool myself, I certainly had a high standard to maintain. a standard I have insisted on to this day. Eighty percent of our gear, crushing plants, front-end loaders, and diggers are hidden away in quarries and in river beds, away from the public eye, they’re still immaculate but not

All Rochelle’s paintings are done in acrylic on block canvas, and painted from photographs. “There was a bit of pressure to get this one completed at short notice but I tend to work best under pressure! Currently there’s approximately an eight to 10-week wait time on orders and I try do at least two a week.” Since giving up her day job last year and starting work as a self-employed automotive artist, Rochelle says her business has grown very quickly. “I was so scared of giving up my regular income and the Monday to Friday 8 to 5 job security, but I can confidently say it was the best decision I ever made. I’ve now got an extensive portfolio made up of trucks from here in New Zealand and also in Australia.” https://www.facebook.com/autoartbyrochelle/

seen by the public. So I want the trucks that are seen to be of a very high standard. When Dan Francis came along he was ultra fastidious and now with the likes of Kane the tradition continues. The guys are super fussy about the fleet and will let anyone know straight away if their truck’s not up to standard.” Operations manager and Murray’s son, Dan, said that trucks are brought now ex-factory with the extras on and it’s just a matter of the drivers adhering to tradition, and the standard that demands. Driver of the truck at the time Rock Dog won the monthly prize was Kane Scott. Since then Kane has moved into transport operations based at the Yaldhurst quarry site. Current driver on the ‘Rock Dog’ is Craig Little, whose task it now is to keep the truck gleaming. Congratulations to Murray, Dan, Kane and the team on yet another shining example. 

The days you get to tick off something on your bucket list are truly the best. John Andrew behind the wheel ‘livin’ it lovin’ it doin’ it.’

One man’s dream Following Heyden Alderson’s nomination of Mainfreight contractor Kevin Judge for the October Good On Ya Mate award, we absolutely had to know more about the backstory.

frightfully wet Saturday in September provided not just a fantastic day for John Andrew, but also for everyone who was there to share the moment. John Andrew started driving trucks in 1975 aged 24. He spent fours years behind the wheel for CocaCola and Farm Products in Frankton before a short stint in grocery retail. Inside wasn’t where he wanted to be so it was back behind the wheel. A friend had suggested Railways Road Services. Two weeks later he started with them, training for his bus licence. The rest is history as they say, and John has now spent 38 years driving buses and coaches, both regionally and on national tour work, taking people and their processions to every far-flung corner of the country. He’s driven everything

imaginable including the biggest luxury coaches, and even had a decade as an owner-operator of a tour coach. But John’s had something that he’s wanted to do his whole life, and a recent health-related wake-up call spurred him into action. He’s been a Kenworth ‘nut’ – as he puts it – his whole life, and yet never had the opportunity to drive one. That’s where son-in-law to be Heyden Alderson stepped in and put out the Facebook plea that resulted in Kevin Judge and his driver Toby McLean springing into action. Kevin provided a truly magnificent K108 for this jovial, humble man to tick the unticked box in his life. Southpac Trucks didn’t hesitate to get involved either. Service manager at the new Hamilton facility Tom Pickford was there on the day with some mementos that would make the event something to remember. For those who were there, watching John pull out of the depot in the Kenworth and head off was certainly something special. “I’m planning to retire in the next year or so, and finish my career with a bit of relief driving on trucks,” said John. “A very special thanks to Kevin Judge who trusted me not to dent his KW. An awesome, awesome day and thanks so much to Southpac and all involved for making the day so special.” 

Yet again the Annual Truck Parade at the Alexandra Blossom Festival put on a dazzling show of the South Island’s finest equipment.

he Annual Truck Parade was well supported by Central Otago-based trucks and as usual spirits were high and plenty of banter was being thrown about, ensuring the event was going to be a resounding success yet again. High entry numbers were present from Summerland’s, Mainfreight, HWR Group and Central Machine Hire in Wanaka – their

stunning collection of Macks taking out the best fleet. The parade was also supported by the great people from The King of Chrome and also Heavy Trucks South Island, who had the Safety MAN roadshow truck on display on their stand, along with a sharp new Western Star on display (and for sale). Perseverance paid off for BCB Contracting’s Andy Clarke after the Kenworth T409 SAR he drives for the company took out Star of the Show. The truck is based out of Rolleston and it’s the second time he has tasted success with this truck at Alexandra; in 2015 he took out the Best Chrome award. Pulling sharp TMC B-trains, the unit has covered nearly 400,000 kms and was a worthy winner. It was a smaller field this year, yet lacked nothing in the quality stakes. Unsurprisingly Andy’s entry also cleaned up Best Kenworth for 2017.

Grossing 50 tonnes, the truck owned and driven by Harry van Dalen that took out top honours drives past the grandstand.

here is a lot going on in the European transport industry. Regulations have not only been tightened for the construction and operation of commercial vehicles, but also for the truck owner and driver. With the ever-increasing competition from Eastern block operators, the profit margins have become very slim for West-European hauliers, most notably those working in international transport. Despite this there is a substantial shortage of professional drivers, due partly to the Euro economy experiencing considerable growth in the past few years. One thing that has not changed is the enthusiasm of truck drivers for their profession. This could be nowhere better witnessed than at the recent Truckstar Festival in the Netherlands, where no fewer than 2300 rigs gathered to celebrate the 37th running of this event. Heavy vehicles of all makes, ages, shapes and countries came to the motor racing circuit in Assen. During the two days more than 60,000 spectators passed the gates and it was not only a festival for the drivers and their families, but also a good chance for the general public to have a meet-and-greet with this very important industry. It was nice to see that so many appreciated the hard work that professional drivers do day in and day out. In the paddock were fair-sized displays of new heavy rigs courtesy of truck importers, customising specialists and parts dealers. One vehicle that stood out from the crowd was a big blue bonneted Scania S730 tractor. This new generation 3-axle rig was converted into a T-Series model by Vlastuin in the Netherlands, a firm that has modified 50 cabover Scanias in recent years.

Flinders Highway Star Story and photos by Howard Shanks

The run from Townsville along the lengthy straight Flinders Highway is demanding enough in terms of sheer distance, much less the hostility of Mother Nature in the vast outback. Traversing west to mining communities dotted around western Queensland, it’s a constant challenge to ensure vital supplies like fuel arrive on time.

ining throughout Western Queensland is big business where profits are measured in cents per grams, and when the machinery that mines the minerals stop… for even a moment… it can cost tens of thousand of dollars. Needless to say the demand on trucking companies like Hawkins Road Transport to deliver goods to these remote mines is high – much higher than you’d expect. For instance, at some of these mines that operate large fleets of dump trucks, loaders and diggers, a road train-load of diesel can be consumed in a just a few days. A little before seven on an Autumn Tuesday morning the North Queensland sun was already scorching. I spotted the lead trailer and dolly parked in the middle of the yard, but there was no sign of driver ‘Pinky’ or his 4900 Western Star. An hour or so later a bright flash of the sun reflecting from the polished grille in the distance signalled Rodger ‘Pinky’ Pink’s impending arrival. Pinky wasted little time as he guided the 4900 Western Star through the maze of parked trailers and pulled his dog trailer combination in behind the lead trailer and unhooked it, before heading around to the front of the lead trailer to couple the road train together. He climbed out of the cabin and apologised for being late, and after walking around the combination for one final check and the customary turning of the road train signs, he paused, pulled his phone from his top pocket and took a quick photo. “It’s a good looking rig,” he said. It was time to hit the road. Pinky filled out his logbook, depressed the clutch, and slipped the gear stick into the low slot.

The 14.8-litre DD15 under the hood bit hard as the clutch was eased out, and the 4900 Western Star eased the trailers forwards. The climb up the Mingela Range certainly put the DD15’s turbo compound system to the test. At the base of the climb Pinky slipped the 4900 Western Star out of overdrive then let the Detroit lug right down through the torque range to 1000rpm before changing down another gear. Pinky reckoned the theory of torque is widely misunderstood and numerous drivers will miss the key element in the DD15’s low power profile. He lugged the engine down below 1,000 rpm on a few occasions and the pull was still there. “Unfortunately, many drivers will be tempted to downshift early, long before the engine has utilised its low end torque down to 1,000rpm,” Pinky said. Not far past the Mingela Range, Pinky pulled into a parking bay to check over the new truck and tap his tyres. The heat from the bitumen radiated up through the work boots; it was like walking on a hot plate. Thankfully everything was okay, and he quickly climbed back into the air-conditioned cabin and got the rig rolling again. Up here at the top of the Australian continent where the average temperature is around 40-plus degrees, and with a gross combination mass around 120 tonne, being able to maintain an average of 90 kph all day is testament enough that Western Star have really got the cooling right with this big beast of burden. Pinky explained these tri-axle dollies have a few advantages over the more traditional bogie dollies; understandably they allow additional weight to be carried and secondly they keep

the rear trailers a lot straighter because they don’t react to every bump in the road. West of Hughenden the sparse golden plains give way to fields of small trees about six metres high, with bright yellow flowers that stretch as far as the eye can see. Pinky explained that these trees, called prickly acacia, are in fact a noxious weed and classified as a restrictive invasive plant in the Biosecurity Act of 2014. Since the introduction of the prickly acacia decades ago, it now infests more than seven million hectares of Queensland, while smaller infestations are reported in the Northern Territory, South Australia and New South Wales. His advice was not to venture too far off the road because the prickly acacia’s spikes (7cm long) will easily puncture a tyre. While the miles rolled by Pinky told us that Hawkins Road Transport was established in 1921 by Bartholomew and Rosina Hawkins and was the first transport company in Queensland to run in opposition to the railways in Brisbane. At the time, the Hawkins operated a small service station in Ipswich, and their transport business grew when they began carrying Mobil drums of fuel from the Brisbane fuel depot to their service station far more reliably than the railways did.

Bridging the supply void between communities and those who supply them with life’s essentials.

Today, Hawkins operates fuel tankers throughout Queensland, transporting bulk liquids in vehicles from rigid body trucks to triple road trains like this 4900 Western Star. The popularity of Western Star trucks up in the remote country is clearly evident with the number of other operators who are using them too. The big Stratosphere sleeper bunk is also another feature Pinky reckons Western Star have done well. “There’s plenty of room to stretch out when you sleep, and storage for all the gear you need to carry,” he explained. The ride inside the 4900 Western Star was exceptional. Pinky said the handling of this truck is the best he’s had. Observing his steady hand on the wheel from the ‘rider’s’ seat and the seemingly effortless ease with which he guided the Constellation along the rugged track, its road manners were certainly impressive. Sadly light rain and a detour cut short our time with Pinky and his impressive combination. Our thoughts were of a solid truck built to last in the most demanding of conditions, with a state-of-the-art engine to propel it that was equally up to the task. 

Haulin’ the Hume 2017 Story and photos by David Kinch

This event has it all, the trucks of yesteryear, good friendly people, and a celebration of those who once did the hard yards driving this fantastic piece of road.

he iconic yet infamous Hume Highway was the road the trucking industry relied on to connect Sydney and Melbourne and keep communities en route bustling in the days before expressways bypassed small town Australia. Those who ran the Hume are now remembered by the organisation of the Haulin’ the Hume truck run that was started back in 2011 by Bruce Gunter and his father Geoff. Haulin’ the Hume is now held every two years, with Bruce spending every spare moment he has

organising the event and making sure all details are in order. This year’s starting point was the picturesque Clarendon Showgrounds in Richmond, north west of Sydney. With the trucks arriving all day and night, the Western Sydney Historical Truck Club provided dinner and the team from Royan Truck and Trailer Repairs put on breakfast the next morning for a gold coin donation. The convoy left the showgrounds early on an autumn Saturday morning with the trucks making their way to Narellan. They then headed up the famous Razorback Ridge where the truck blockade of 1979 was held for nine days to protest the government demanding an unjust tax on the ordinary truck driver be abolished. On to Picton, and with the public watching and waving the trucks headed on through the Hole in the Wall and continued the scenic drive through Mittagong, Berrima, Marulan and on to Goulburn for a lunch stop. Around 2pm the trucks headed for Breadalbane and the sensational Cullerin Range. The entrants received warm

TractionAir Kiwis getting a grip of the situation

Central Tire Inflation (CTI) was developed during World War 2 as a means to improve mobility of military vehicles in difficult terrain. Decades later CTI came under the scrutiny of North American forest interests, which gave rise to modern day commercial CTI Systems.

ractionAir was developed in New Zealand in the 90s with input from local and Australian logging operators. The objective was to design an operatorfocused user-friendly system, and from its release it quickly found favour in the region. Without TractionAir, life is a compromise for tyres. They get inflated to around 100 PSI to ensure they can cope with the truck’s maximum payload. The CTI concept is to match tyre pressures with the load and the speed of the vehicle. TractionAir enables you to adjust the pressure to suit both, without leaving the cab. Steel-belted radial truck tyres are designed to flex, maintain correct tyre sidewall deflection ratios, and you gain huge traction advantages (reducing wheel slip) while reducing vibration. It is this vibration reduction that produces the greatest cost savings. The correct pressure setting for an 11R 22.5 tyre at 100kph will be when the tyre’s sidewall is deflected by 12% of its unloaded height. At 10kph, that sidewall deflection can be increased to 30%, which will double the footprint, and halve ground pressure. Twenty years of development means that the TractionAir CTI has many innovative features that have been developed with a focus on continuous improvement – a key to meeting the changing demands of New Zealand’s transport businesses.

TractionAir takes the compromise out of tyre utility across the theatre of operations.

TractionAir is used throughout Australasia, from New Zealand and Australia to more remote countries like Papua New Guinea and Laos. TRT (Tidd Ross Todd Ltd) or one of its agents installs systems through out all of these locations. The software-based system enables various settings to be managed easily and ensures that there is a PSI reading accuracy of plus or minus 1. This accuracy is essential to give the driver confidence that what they are seeing in the cab is what is happening at the tyre. The Dual Transducer, an innovation from TRT, has an unparalleled accuracy of showing tyre pressure. This redundancy allows any issues like a tyre leak or compromised wiring to show as an alert on the CTI screen in the cab for the driver to act on immediately – a key safety feature that is not offered by any other CTI system on the market at this time. The pressure cell that contains all of the components is designed to withstand the environment that the vehicle operates in, as well as exposure to the elements; the system becomes part of the vehicle. It will also withstand highpressure washes. Moving from a surface that needs the reduced PSI to a sealed road or highway can cause tyre damage. If a driver misses this change it will cause significant tyre wear. A low PSI can also result in a tyre blowout, which could result in a more serious accident. This risk is mitigated with the TractionAir system as the pressure automatically adjusts through an integrated GPS receiver to ground speed – another great safety feature that also saves cost. Alfons Reitsma, company asset manager from McCarthy Transport, says they like to have a common approach to product systems improvement and use the TractionAir system because it works. “Obviously they have listened to us as a client when we have requested product improvements and they have stood by those improvements on various makes and models, so that’s one of the reasons. Secondly is that they have been good on the servicing support, and thirdly they have a positive approach to product improvement overall.” ALFONS SAYS McCarthy’s has integrated the tyre pressure management into the fleet management system so they can locate tyre pressures on location for safety management. “That’s one thing I don’t think too many players in the country are doing. I believe we are the first one to make that integration with them.” 

Lighting up our lives!

f you’ve ever watched the documentary series Megafactories, you’ll instantly recognise HELLA as being in that category. HELLA New Zealand design and manufacture innovative lighting products for the commercial transport and automotive industries in a 5200 m² state-of-the-art factory in Pakuranga, Auckland. Managing director Andrew Mills says the company philosophy is to design and build innovative ultra-durable lighting products they are proud of. “Our products are not the cheapest in the market but they are high quality and we will always support our customers; we never turn a warranty down. Our primary aim in that is to learn. How did someone manage to damage it? Is it something that went wrong in a production sense, or has it been out there in use for 15 years? We want to know how and why it failed.” Every product that leaves HELLA New Zealand’s factory is individually tested, and every order line gets a QA inspection. They have onsite testing facilities, allowing them to see how lights perform under extremes of temperature, intense UV light, exposure to chemicals, and in humid and salt-laden conditions. “We have a lot of the gear in-house, so as we are developing new designs we can test them before any external testing is done. We can do the first product development and get a better product at the end as we run through the design process.” Andrew says they select materials that will stand the test of time such as optical nylon, which has greater strength and durability than other plastics. “It’s a sister material to Kevlar, extremely strong, UV resistant, impact resistant, chemical resistant – the best of the best.” The factory’s moulds and machines are all custom-built and Andrew says extra investment is also put into tools when they are made.

First flicking the switch over a hundred years ago The parent company of HELLA was founded in 1899 in Germany and today it has more than 34,000 employees worldwide, including 6000 in research and development. It is one of the 100 largest German industrial companies and one of the top 50 automotive suppliers in the world. HELLA New Zealand was established in 1973 to provide a substitute for imported products that were constrained by industry protection, import licences, quotas and high import tariffs. They have been on their current site, which is also home to the global headquarters for HELLA Marine, since 1980. In the early 1980s a free trade agreement with Australia allowed duty-free access, and HELLA New Zealand began exporting low volume aftermarket products that were incompatible with HELLA Australia’s high volume OE manufacturing.

When the local car manufacturing industry closed in the 1990s, HELLA New Zealand expanded its design capabilities to develop specialist products, becoming pioneers in LED lighting. HELLA’s design and manufacturing plant in Auckland has 166 staff and an electronics assembly plant in Waihi has 36. The Waihi plant places 65,000 LEDs daily onto circuit boards – equating to about 1.3 million LEDs per month – and volume is planned to increase to more than 100,000 LEDs per day. About 85% of HELLA New Zealand’s production is exported. Today HELLA’s ultra durable and energy efficient LED marker / signal lamps are viewed as the ‘fit and forget’ choice in the Australasian transport market as a result of HELLA New Zealand’s innovative design and use of cutting edge materials and technology.

WWW.GOCLEAR.CO.NZ “This means we have high quality and a low rejection rate. Our moulding tolerances can be as precise as plus or minus .02mm, which can make a huge difference between a compliant and a non-compliant product. We have one machine with a 1.8mm needle going into a 2mm hole that gets laser aligned every time it leaves the hole. We are the only ones doing it; everyone else needs a 3mm hole.” Andrew says they can react quickly to market demand as they hold large stocks of raw materials. “We can manufacture within days of receiving an Precision gluing is used order. Our customers are to fix components and global but they need to feel hermetically seal lamps. like we’re just down the road.” The Auckland factory is environmentally controlled and uses 100% renewable energy. About 95% of rejected product gets recycled and used in packing trays, glue tubes, and for purging machines between different types of plastics. Andrew says one of HELLA’s original drivers was road safety and that will become even more important in the future with autonomous vehicles. He says vehicles will sense each other and may not need headlights to see where they are going, but making them visible to pedestrians would become increasingly important. “We’re looking at about 30 to 40 years and there will be a huge transition before the fleet is autonomous. It will be different, there’s no doubt about that. Lighting will pretty much set the scene, because if you are not driving, you will be working in your vehicle.” Andrew says he loves being part of HELLA New Zealand for a number of reasons, one of which is the passion and depth of knowledge of the staff. “There is care and attention to detail in everything we do. Some of the design team have worked here for 30-plus years. We focus on continuous improvement – if we’re doing a design iteration, we ask if there is anything we can improve at the same time. Everything we build is a safety device and our commitment is always to the product quality and to safety.” 

Start focusing on getting strong, NOT losing weight

uilding muscle creates an expensive engine to run. We run on repackaged fuel from macronutrients such as fats, proteins and carbohydrates. Our classic modern lifestyle includes foods which provide high concentrations of sugar, and typically a whole lot less heavy lifting. This creates excess energy that our body conveniently stores for later…as fat. Sadly though, ‘later’ never comes. If you have been struggling with losing weight then what I suggest is a shift in mind set. Why not start focusing your attention on building strength and creating an expensive engine to run. Strength is something that is a lot easier to improve quickly, promotes muscle growth and helps improve the composition of your body. A well-balanced strength programme will also build strong running gear, reducing your risk of injury and ensuring that you are able to

move well long into your adult life, allowing you to enjoy the finer things – like playing with your grandchildren rather than watching them play. If you have never been exposed to structured strength training before, you have the most to gain. Strength can be developed at any age and the initial increase will be seen very early on. My advice always comes down to what it is you truly want to achieve. If it is losing fat, then a well-balanced progressive strength programme teamed with making healthy food choices most of the time you will see the results you are after a lot quicker than following restrictive diets and running around the block. 

Carrying a kettle in the truck and performing three sets / 10 reps of three exercises every second night, combined with a bit of a tidy up on the eating quality, will deliver significant results within six months.

First sentencing outcome of Health and Safety at Work Act 2015

orkSafe NZ put out a media release on 23 August 2017 containing the details of the first sentencing following a prosecution under the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015 (HSWA). This has taken a long time, as WorkSafe now have 12 months to decide if they are going to lay a prosecution, rather than the six months under the old Act. The incident occurred on 6 April 2016, two days after the new legislation was enacted. A worker had his hand caught as he fed product into a machine. He lost most of his fingers. The guarding on the machine had been identified as faulty six weeks prior and nothing had been done. WorkSafe NZ proposed $900,000 as an appropriate starting point for the fine. The judge considered that a range between $400,000 and $600,000 was more fitting the level of culpability. Taking various factors into account, the judge set the final range between $210,000 and $315,000. The fine was set at around $275,000 but was reduced to $100,000 based on the organisation’s ability to pay. Prior to 4 April 2016, under the Health and Safety in Employment Act 1992, fines for this type of incident sat between $30,000 and $40,000. This fine is a significant increase, and shows, very clearly, the government’s intention to hold organisations to account. The headline in the WorkSafe media release is ‘Take immediate

The answer to this is an emphatic no! The HSWA is very clear that we must understand and manage the hazards and risks in our organisations. Failing to check for hazards or risks, or failing to acknowledge them, would be against all principles of the Act. We must undertake inspections and reviews to ensure that our building, plant and equipment is in good working order, that any required safety features are in place and are working, and that regular maintenance is being undertaken.

WWW.GOCLEAR.CO.NZ RUNNING ON SCR?... LEGAL LINES

Know your rights

he New Zealand police have certain powers which they can exercise when dealing with drivers of heavy motor vehicles, and this month I’m going to list a few which you should be familiar with.

What information do I have to give?

Most people are already aware that if a police officer wearing a uniform or wearing a hat or badge of authority signals you to stop or follows you with blue and red flashing lights and/or sounding a siren, then you are obliged to pull over and remain stopped until the officer has completed his duties. But have you ever wondered what information the police can demand from drivers? The answer is: your full name, full address, date of birth, occupation, telephone number, and if you are not the owner of the vehicle, then the corresponding details as they relate to the owner of the vehicle. It is not the case that a driver is under a legal obligation to answer every question asked by an officer. For example, you do not need to disclose where you’ve been or where you’re going. So remember that just because someone is wearing a uniform, it doesn’t mean you have to tell them everything. If you have given them your correct details and you are not under arrest you can walk away and say nothing.

The power to arrest

If the officer has good cause to suspect that you have failed to comply with any of his requests or given false information then he can arrest you without a warrant. You can also be arrested without a warrant if the officer believes you have been drink driving, driving under the influence of drugs, or he suspects that you have assaulted a police officer. The legal definition of an assault is ‘the intentional application of force from one person to the person of another or even a threat or gesture suggesting an intention to apply force’, so keep this in mind because in essence it would take very little for an officer to claim that he has been assaulted. Members of the public can be called upon to assist in an arrest if necessary, and the power to arrest can be given to a member of the public.

stop and wait until the enforcement officer has completed the exercise of his powers. If you fail to stop then the penalty is a fine of up to $5,000.

Weighing vehicles

Normally, an officer cannot order a vehicle to a site for weighing if the vehicle would have to deviate from its course by more than five kilometres but there are exceptions to this rule. If an officer suspects that the vehicle has already deviated from its course in order to avoid being weighed, a deviation of 20 kilometres is permitted. Where a vehicle has failed to stop for an ‘ALL TRUCKS STOP’ sign or ignored the direction of an officer to stop, a deviation greater than five kilometres is also permitted. It is therefore very important for drivers who are stopped and directed to a weighbridge to keep an accurate record of exactly what point they were stopped and the distance travelled to get to the weighbridge. The significance of keeping a careful record is that it may need to be used in court to prove he wasn’t going the way he was simply to avoid being weighed, and if the distance is greater than five kilometres for the purposes of being weighed, this is a defence. If the gross weight of a vehicle or vehicle combination exceeds by more than 10% the overall or any individual axle weights permitted by the regulations, the police can demand that the driver stop the truck where it is or direct it to a safe place. The officer can then insist that the load be removed, reduced or rearranged so that it no longer exceeds the maximum permitted weights. POLICE are required to provide a caution under the Bill of Rights Act 1990 to people who are arrested or detained, or where police want to question someone where there is sufficient evidence to charge that person with an offence. Next month I will talk more about what to do once you hear the police giving you a caution and your rights after arrest or detainment. 

Searching vehicles

A police officer may at any time inspect a load on a heavy motor vehicle on any road. However, this does not mean that the officer can enter the truck itself. In order to enter and search the truck he must have either a warrant or good cause to suspect that drugs are being carried. A police officer can measure the weight of the vehicle or the weight on any of its axles. To be able to exercise this power, an officer can direct the driver to drive to a site and on to a specific type of weighing device even though the driver may not otherwise be permitted to drive the vehicle to that site. When police display an ‘ALL TRUCKS STOP’ sign or when directed by an officer to stop, a driver of a heavy motor vehicle or goods service vehicle must

Conflicts in the workplace

ave you ever had a destructive conflict with someone at your workplace? Have you ever felt angry, upset or stressed because of something that someone may have said or done? Are there people you avoid because being around them makes your job an unhappy one? Even if you go out of your way to avoid conflict, sometimes it’s impossible. Conflicts in the workplace are a fact of life. While ‘winning’ a conflict with someone may make you feel great for a while, if the issues that caused the conflict in the first place are not resolved, then a new conflict will just arise again later on. There really are no winners. There are key steps you can take to resolve a conflict before a small issue turns into a mountainous one.

Realise that conflicts happen in all workplaces

When people have different expectations, disagreements are inevitable. Whether it’s an unrealistically short deadline, inappropriate behaviour or a decision you don’t agree with, when something goes against someone’s expectations or wishes, a conflict is bound to arise. While you shouldn’t go out of your way to cause a conflict, it’s not the end of the world if you find yourself in one. Rather, you can learn from the experience. Conflicts are common when a workplace is undergoing change, or a new idea/process is being implemented. However, it is through these conflicts that businesses can make changes and grow. Regardless of who is right or wrong, being in a conflict means that somebody cares enough about something to strongly disagree with it. Engage, and work through the core issues of the conflict and both parties will be better off for it. Ignoring the conflict is the worst solution, as the situation will usually get worse over time.

The best time to resolve a conflict is now

The majority of conflicts are caused not by something someone has said or done, but rather by something that wasn’t said or done. While you may feel it would be easier to sweep things under the rug and pretend everything is fine, this may cause an escalation, as everyone is waiting for the other party to apologise. The longer an issue is left unaddressed, the more likely it is to turn serious. Conflicts can also be extremely costly to businesses. It can make people less productive, sick, more stressed, and more likely to want to change jobs. Lost productivity and replacing employees can be extremely expensive.

the conflict is still in the early stages you may be able to ask the person you are having a conflict with what the issue is. You have to be careful how you ask them though. ‘Hey, I was wondering why you did X,’ or ‘I’ve noticed that you often do X. Why is that?’ Are much less confrontational than ‘Why the hell do you always have to X?’ While some people are very direct and may appreciate you coming straight to the point, the majority of people will likely find being too direct as confrontational. If a conflict has been continuing for a longer period of time and you feel like you are pouncing at each other’s throats at any given opportunity, then it may be slightly more complex, although there are still diplomatic ways to address the situation. Politely inviting them to talk it over is a good start. Asking indirect and non-confrontational questions and not making accusations or assumptions is important. As soon as you start throwing around accusations, the discussion is over. If something is an observable fact, such as ‘Bob, you have been criticising me a lot in our meetings lately’, and you are not making a criticism of the person, then it is okay to bring it up. ‘Bob, I’ve noticed you have stopped respecting my ideas,’ is an opinion, and accusatory. During your discussions, listen to their perspective and ideas, and don’t interrupt them. If you can find some common ground with them, that is the first step towards resolving a conflict. Say, ‘I want us to resolve this. Let’s find some things we can agree upon so we can move forward.’ Remember to apologise for your part in the conflict; you’re not taking the blame, but accepting responsibility for your part.

Get a mediator

Some conflicts can be too difficult to solve for the participants alone, and it may be worth getting a mediator. The mediator could be a manager, HR manager, co-worker, etc. It needs to be someone both parties can respect. A good mediator can help you to find your own solutions, and develop a plan, not just push you towards a solution.

What if none of the above worked?

Not all conflicts can be solved. But at the very least, you will have the satisfaction of knowing that you tried your best. 

Communication is important

Don’t just assume that the person you are having a conflict with is trying to spite you. Usually this is not the case. People tend to do things for a reason. If you can understand why the conflict is happening, you may be able to resolve it quickly. If NZ Trucking Association can be contacted on 0800 338 338 or info@nztruckingassn.co.nz

NRC special National Road Carriers’ closing remarks to the Board of Inquiry for the East West Link Project Proposal – 6 September 2017

n our closing comments to the Environmental Protection Agency Board, National Road Carriers (NRC) asserted that the East West Link project must proceed broadly as set out in the NZ Transport Agency proposal. In our closing remarks to the Board of Inquiry we reinforced the following requests – that the panel: • Ensured the construction, operation and maintenance of the proposed motorway-to-motorway road gives appropriate recognition to the requirements of the large volume of road freight traffic that will use the new road. • We agreed the proposed new road is in the best place. • We submitted that the first goal of the new road must be to ensure it achieves measurable travel time savings and congestion cost savings compared with the gridlock and time-cost delay the freight sector (and other traffic) experience daily on the Neilson and Church freight corridors. • We noted the rationale underpinning NRC’s strong support for building a new road centres on achieving relief for heavy freight operators from the congestion that now lasts through most working days on the local road network, and provision of a more efficient route to the motorway network from the industrial precinct, including the Southdown Rail Terminal, where most of the 6000 heavy truck trips per day commence or end. • NRC recommended design and construction of a seamless route with least possible time-cost delay and stoppages for accessing the industrial area, and safe and efficient separation from through traffic. • NRC raised concerns that the new route may not be as efficient and free-flowing as it could be, and accordingly ask that serious consideration be given to requesting NZTA and Auckland Transport explore innovative but practical options

Supporting those who choose to make a living in the Road Transport Industry since 1936

to eliminate the requirement for local connections to the new road to be controlled by traffic lights. • NRC will be strongly committed to encouraging heavy trucks to avoid using local roads, especially residential and retail precinct roads wherever possible, and requested the Board of Inquiry to: • Ensure that the upgraded Neilson Street Interchange with SH20 eliminates heavy trucks having to enter Onehunga’s retail area and nearby residential streets – Neilson, Onehunga Mall, Selwyn, and Gloucester.

As we stated in our main submission on 21 March 2017, National Road Carriers is not seeking a gold-plated outcome for this route, but a new road that is user friendly, and more efficient and safer than the current road arrangements for the 6000 freight truck movements per day, which is growing by some 6% a year and increasingly made up of vehicles that are 23 metres, and possibly in future 25 metres. 

The regulatory changes keep coming

ver the past few months the Road Transport Association surveyed its members and asked them what we should be doing for the membership, and what was important to them. Not surprisingly the three things they named were: • Regulatory compliance • The driver shortage • Roading, namely maintenance and the lack of funding, particularly on the secondary network. WE WENT BACK to the members with a commitment to make sure that when we saw changes in the regulatory space we would make a point of getting out to them the most up-todate information and explaining it in simple terms so they understood the implications and their responsibilities. The Land Transport Amendment Act 2017 has come into force, which will see a number of amended provisions around the enforcement of heavy vehicles, including:

• Redirection orders for weighing • New off-loading limits – 10% or 2 tonnes, whichever is the lesser • Revised powers for RCAs (Road Controlling Authorities) to prohibit heavy traffic • The provision for alternative weighing technology • Clearer definition for gross weight as well as new provisions around critical dimensional breaches. THESE CHANGES are important because they signal an intensified focus on the part of the NZ Transport Agency and the Commercial Vehicle Safety Team for the management of weights on vehicles. We are going to see tighter controls. THE CHANGE to the definition of Gross Vehicle Mass (GVM) – replacing the term ‘Gross Laden Weight’ – will allow for different weights depending on the circumstances in which a vehicle was being operated, and allow a move closer to the concept of a design limit. The GVM will be used to measure overloading. In changes relating to overloading or a breach of dimension requirements, two provisions of the Act – sections 16 (duties) and 43 (offences) – have been updated. In both, we now have a consistent list of mass limits (axles, axle sets, axle groups and total mass) that must be observed. Added to both are two new components: • Observing GVM limits, and • Over-dimension requirements. THIS BETTER ALIGNS these limits and allows the government to consider appropriate infringement offences for serious breaches of dimension requirements. The last area that I want to raise with you is the off-loading requirements. Section 126 has been updated to state that the police can require off-loading when either the total vehicle mass is 10% over what is permitted (the current situation), or is 2 tonnes over, whichever is the lesser. The change is more dramatic when applied to a vehicle on an HPMV permit. Previously, a 50MAX vehicle would be offloaded at over 55 tonnes. Now, the margin is effectively halved. These small changes are moving in a direction to better control weights on vehicles, so operators would be well advised to understand this. 

Political consensus on road pricing to ease Auckland congestion

ne of the most pleasing aspects of the election campaign from a road transport perspective was that a real consensus has developed around the concept of introducing some form of road pricing or congestion charging to help free up traffic around Auckland. All parties represented at the Election 2017 Transport Summit debate, co-hosted by RTF – National, ACT, Labour, the Greens and New Zealand First – were in agreement that road pricing is a tool that needs to be added to the suite of initiatives to de-clog Auckland’s roads. We know that a high proportion of peak time traffic in Auckland is single-occupancy cars. Road pricing in other parts of the world has been shown to have a direct impact on this as it financially encourages people to car pool or travel at different times of the day. The five parties all seemed to be on the same page when it came to their philosophy around any future road pricing scheme. Specifically, that it needs to be treated as a straightforward demand management tool rather than also having a secondary purpose as a source of revenue. The road transport industry has historically been pretty hesitant to embrace road pricing due to the fear that it would be used as a revenue gathering exercise rather than actually working to alleviate traffic problems and fund new infrastructure. Therefore, it was very heartening to hear of the political commitment for a pure demand management concept as this can be made equitable across all the various road users and even include a reduction in other forms of road user charging. A recent NZIER report on the economic cost of Auckland’s congestion illustrates just how critical it is for the new government and Auckland Council to get on with initiatives such as road pricing to tackle the problem. The report, co-commissioned by RTF member association National Road Carriers, shows that the cost of the city’s congestion problems is anywhere between $0.9 billion and $1.3 billion per year if today’s Auckland traffic is compared to an imaginary Auckland where roads run only at capacity. The cost balloons out further to $2 billion per year if we compare Auckland’s congestion to a completely free-flowing Auckland. That is a loss of around 2 percent of Auckland’s GDP and the report doesn’t even include economic activity

taking place on the weekends or the overall liveability benefits from decongestion and wider economic benefits from improved workforce accessibility. It is predicted that more than 25 percent of the arterial network in Auckland will be congested by the end of 2017, which not only means more cars on the roads, but also adds further costs to the freight task. 16.2 percent of New Zealand’s total freight movements take place within Auckland and 25 percent of all our freight has an origin or destination in Auckland, so we are talking about a significant chunk of the national logistics picture. Whichever way you cut it, Auckland’s traffic problems are having an impact across the whole country. The report is particularly useful because it encourages evidencebased decision-making and goes beyond the usual political whims that so often contaminate discussion around transport. It is also clear that there is no single silver bullet to deal with Auckland’s congestion issues. The answer lies in a combination of multimodal solutions and demand management strategies. Roading projects such as the East West Link, a third or even fourth main rail line, central rail loop, and road pricing, all have a role to play in freeing up traffic and freight movements. So now that there is political agreement over road pricing let’s get on with it so that we can begin to take advantage of Auckland and New Zealand’s true economic potential. Finally, a reminder that the 2017 RTF conference is in a few days. We have a great line-up of speakers and events and it will be a great chance to catch up with your industry colleagues. So, don’t forget to register online at www.rtfconference.co.nz. 

Issue the challenge, they’ll come up with the answer

New Zealand Trucking

One of the newer members within NZTTMF, Craig Gordon started Total Transport Engineers LP in 2014 with the intent of providing a boutique transport engineering/ manufacturing company where the focus is on quality, not quantity. Craig is no newcomer to our industry. Being involved in the transport industry most of his life, Craig came to work for a trailer manufacturing company in the late 1990s, taking ownership in the early 2000s. In 2007, Craig then scaled back operations and set up a small business offering transport design and engineering consultancy services to operators and other manufacturers. However, the temptation to build what he designed was too much for Craig to ignore and in 2014 he decided to move back to having a manufacturing presence in the industry. Total Transport Engineers LP is the result—a company with the focus on customisation and special application work, rather than mass production. Today, Total Transport Engineers LP designs and builds customised steel/stainless steel livestock truck and trailers, container handling units, general freight and tipper units. They also refurbish them.

November 2017

Craig and his team have the specialist skills to modify existing vehicles or design new ones to make use of the new VDAM rules. They also undertake general transport engineering, including modifying and accessorising existing trailers. Even in its relatively short history Total Transport Engineers LP has gained a reputation for handling and delivering on the difficult. It’s their point of difference. As Craig readily admits, his company is often confronted with the jobs other companies can’t—or do not wish to—handle. He says he and his team relish a challenge. Regardless of the eventual requirement, the process starts the same—detailed discussion with the customers to ascertain the need and then matching the build to meet that need. This often results in a core trailer being substantially modified to make work—and life—a little easier for the operator. Again it is a case of Craig using his hands-on approach and experience to answer the challenge and to deliver the solution. Sometimes, it pays to “think small”.

TRUCK SPOT LIGHT

HAROLD’S KENWORTH 1994 Kenworth T950

This truck was bought when Harold Richardson convinced his Mack-loyal father Bill to compare it to a Mack CH. An opportunity presented itself when a truck they had ordered for Southern Transport wouldn’t be arriving on time so Harold decided to purchase this Kenworth instead. It was a total success! The truck drove approximately 1.3 million kilometres in its 14 years of operation and when it retired in 2008 it was still in excellent condition. Because of the story that lies behind this Kenworth we decided to display it at Bill Richardson Transport World in memory of Harold.

MAKER: KENWORTH TRUCK COMPANY Based on the American Kenworth truck range, Australian Kenworths were built by the Kenworth Truck Company at Bayswater, Victoria. The first Australian Kenworth rolled off the production line in 1971 and they are still manufactured there to this day.

WWW.GOCLEAR.CO.NZ RUNNING ON SCR?... THE LAST MILE

Preserving the past

“T

o carry on the in the Dominion of New Zealand or elsewhere the business of general carriers, railway, customs and forwarding agents, and general incidental.” This is the stated objective accompanying an application for the registration of a private transport company reported in the Mercantile Gazette of September 1922. The application was successful. While the language used would not be seen today, the intentions expressed, and no doubt the hope and ambitions of all those involved, would ring true for many operators now. In her book Road’s the Mode published in 2013, Jennifer Haworth captures the ever-changing history of the road transport industry in New Zealand. She discusses the changing environment in which the industry operates and how, despite all the knockers, it continues to provide an essential but largely unrecognised service throughout New Zealand. Without this service the country would rapidly grind to a halt. It is not by accident that the history of the industry is inherently linked to

the history and development of this country and she describes this well. But the industry is about people and operators and has been since the first person charged an early settler to move their belongings across a landing beach, most likely by hand cart. Many of the original transport businesses, or carters as they are described in some census records, have long gone, but they have left a legacy, a legacy that needs to be captured and preserved as a permanent record. Just who were these carriers, where did they operate, and how many trucks did they have? IT HAS BEEN interesting in doing some of my own research to see that late payers or those who did not pay were around nearly 100 years ago; the industry has been managing and coping with these types of customers most likely since day one. It is also interesting to read that back then the industry was supporting the community, with gifts of fruit, free cartage of firewood and donations to charitable organisations mentioned in the press of the day - support it continues to do to but which is largely unrecognised. Unfortunately the industry was also having crashes then as well. A 1923 report that I have read talks about two horses involved in delivering benzene bolting into a house that was occupied by a police sergeant and his family, smashing a bedroom. Fines for overloading also seem to have been around back then. The industry also showed its ability to diversify through the sale of stable manure.

What should we do?

The industry has a rich history and this needs to be captured. Unfortunately, a lot of official government records no longer appear to be available; an example, early motor registration details. The transition from local body to centralised control of the industry has left big holes through which some history has fallen. A lot of the history of individual transport businesses though should still be available, either though the businesses themselves or their descendants. This must be recorded and preserved before another generation takes over and the history is lost forever. I am sure that doing this will reveal many interesting twists and turns, some of which may surprise. The industry today is built upon those who have gone before, and their stories deserve to be told. Martin Luther King is credited with saying: “We are not makers of history. We are made by history”. Our descendants established the industry that we believe in. Their contribution needs to be remembered. The accidental trucker 
