The heavy-duty segment had a total of 1,274 units sold, up an impressive 224 on May 2021 and bringing the segment to a YTD total of 5,322. Kenworth managed a total of 260 units in May – a jump of 45 on April’s total and 79 ahead of May 2021. This brings it to a YTD total in triple figures with 1,122 and, with the new K220 recently being unveiled, things presumably will only get better. Isuzu and Volvo were very close with their May totals, bringing 176 and 170 to the table, respectively. Both saw an increase on April results (144/138) and this puts them on YTDs of 810 and 755. Could Volvo make up the difference in coming months for a run at second place? Scania, in fourth place, had a result of 120 units in May – a sizeable increase on its April result of 77 and ahead of last May’s 105. UD Trucks and Fuso broke into the 80s in May, with UD in particular showing significant improvement on last May’s result of 44, while Hino saw an increase from April’s 64 to reach 77 in May. MercedesBenz recovered its numbers with a total of 70 after a drop last month, with Mack also moving back up with a May result of 63. Of the remainder, Freightliner nearly doubled its May 2021 result with 42, but Dennis Eagle languished with three compared to 21 last year.

Medium-duty

Light-duty

The medium-duty segment managed to beat May 2021’s total by four units, to reach a May 2022 total of 681; up 49 on April. With strong sales at the beginning of the year, this brings the segment to a YTD total of 2,964 – which brings it 261 ahead of the same period last year. Isuzu maintains a very strong grip on the segment with a May total of 324, which is a huge 60 ahead of April’s total and a 75-unit lead on May 2021. This brings Isuzu to a YTD total of 1,341 – outselling the heavy-duty leader Kenworth. Hino remains in a comfortable second on 195, unthreatened by Fuso on 102, but these results are both down on May 2021 totals (241/140) – in Hino’s case significantly. From there numbers drop sharply to fourth place UD Trucks on 20, up one on April, and Iveco brought the last of the doubledigit numbers with 19.

The light-duty segment showed strong growth compared to the same period last year, with a total of 1,329; up 14 per cent on May 2021’s 1,166 units. This brings the sector to a YTD total of 5,766. Isuzu again is taking no prisoners with its total of 640 over double that of second place Hino on 302. For Isuzu this is a stonking increase of 116 compared to May and an even more impressive jump of 160 units compared to May 2021, giving it a YTD of 2,371. Hino was slightly ahead of its May 2021 figure of 294, while Fuso saw a significant improvement of 47 units on its May 2021 total to reach 224. Mercedes-Benz retained fourth place with 58 in May, but was down from its April total of 74, while Iveco bumped back up from April’s 26 to reach 40 in May. However, this was a decrease on its May 2021 total of 71.

Welcome to the first of our special features in Deals on Wheels magazine, where we highlight the businesses and technologies that are at the forefront of the industry across a variety of different areas within the trucking industry In this issue we are looking at the latest innovations within the world of brakes and braking technology. Brakes may not be the first thing that springs to mind when a shiny new truck rolls by, but without them that rig isn’t going anywhere. Brakes and brake systems are integral to the safety of both trucks and those behind the wheel, where the highest quality is needed to keep a fleet compliant and running efficiently.

Alongside the humble brake are the rapid advancements in technology to control brakes to prevent locking and automatically apply the brakes if obstacles are spotted. With these systems increasingly being applied as standard in new trucks, having a brake system that reacts quickly and lasts the distance is integral. Take a look overleaf to see what major manufacturers have on offer.

Heat OF THE MOMENT

By using Bendix’s infra-red heat guns, technicians can save time on routine brake maintenance and boost workshop efficiency

Using a heat gun can save a technician time when checking for brake wear

The wider availability and increasing affordability of non-contact infrared (IR) heat measurement technology is increasing workshop efficiency by helping technicians diagnose braking faults more quickly, and often without the need for brake teardowns. Most commercial units are calibrated and operate with a simple point-and-click temperature measurement. They have the capacity to measure in the range of 0–500°C, covering most automotive applications. The main consideration when using these heat guns is to keep a consistent distance from the gun to the component that’s being measured for comparative purposes. Depending on the heat gun manufacturer, this distance will vary slightly, but generally the ideal distance is between 15 and 20cm. Checking brakes on commercial vehicles IR heat technology is particularly useful in commercial vehicle workshops, given the number of axles that trucks and trailing stock typically have.

The Bendix IF thermometer

One of the most important considerations when checking brakes in commercial vehicles is to ensure that the brake loads are distributed evenly across all axles within the combination. This means that each of the brake assemblies are doing their share of the work, preventing overloading of the other brakes, which can lead to excessive heat, brake wear and excess mechanical stress. Before checking the brakes, the vehicle should be driven (preferably loaded) and perform approximately 10 stops from 80– 60km/h to warm up the brakes. Following this, the brake temperature should be taken at the brake drum/disc, usually at the centre of each to ensure the same location for all brakes. The next step is to compare the temperatures across all brakes – if the temperature between brakes varies by more than approximately 50°C, then they should be inspected for wear and correct operation. Tips for measuring temperatures When ‘heating the brakes, the ideal temperature is 100–200°C. This will clearly show any differences in operating performance. Brake temperatures should also be measured on one side of the vehicle at a time, as they can cool quickly – measuring brakes close to each will give best results. Note, it’s not the absolute temperature we’re interested in but the difference between brakes. In the tri-axle trailer example shown in the table below, measurements were taken on each side, so each wheel side needs to be compared: LHS axle 1, 2, 3 etc. RHS: Temperatures show some variation, this can be attributed to mechanical variation and measurement technique, no action is needed. LHS: Axle 2, 70°C is significantly lower than axles 1 and 3 (125°C, 115°C). Further investigation is therefore needed on this brake. Axle

Meritor is a US supplier of drivetrain, mobility, braking, aftermarket and electric powertrain solutions for commercial vehicle and industrial markets. For over 110 years the company has developed products for commercial trucks and trailers, with offices worldwide, including an Australian brake shoe kit production and parts warehouse in the west Melbourne suburb of Derrimut and an axle assembly facility in Sunshine, Melbourne. With a mission to provide superior performance, energy efficiency and reliability, Meritor recognises that the trucking industry runs on tight margins and in a market of fierce competition, therefore maximising the efficiency of vehicles is paramount. To achieve this, Meritor has designed solutions that cater for the needs of owners at all stages of a vehicle’s lifecycle. From its premium OEM quality Meritor Genuine products to the cost-effective Meritor branded range, Meritor boasts an aftermarket portfolio of axle, gear, driveline and braking products. Of course, the key to being able to offer such a wide range in aftermarket products is securing first fitment on new models with OEM truck builders. In North America, four out of five OEMs offer Meritor as their standard driveline and it’s estimated the company holds about 70 per cent share in axle and brake solutions for the heavy commercial vehicle segment. To meet the high expectations of OEM truck manufacturers, Meritor utilises advanced predictive techniques and innovative manufacturing processes to produce its range of air disc brakes and drum brakes, as well as drums, discs and hubs. Air and drum brakes Meritor supplies brakes to OEMs seeking 16inch to 25-inch wheel equipment with brake torque requirements up to 40kNm. Its EX225 air disc range of brakes deliver superior stopping distance and durability.

They are engineered for fast pad changes and only require periodic inspection, removing the need for routine maintenance schedules. With a wide variety of models for light, medium and heavy-duty applications, features include common housing assemblies to match various bridges and carriers, and modular flexibility for different requirements. Meritor drum brakes for on- and offhighway truck and trailer, linehaul and vocational applications, meanwhile, are available in three variants: S-cam, SAC and wedge operation. Each brake design is optimised to deliver consistent performance, stopping distance and simple servicing. For vocational and service vehicles, Meritor drum brakes offer added durability and reliability. The S-cam brakes offer industry-leading friction materials to extend the brake service life; enhanced camshaft bushings, doubleanchor pin design and extended lube option to minimise maintenance and downtime; and quick-change shoes, offering fast shoe replacement. Here in Australia, the Meritor Q plus s-cam drum brake could almost be considered an industry standard and is widely used among many of the trucking world’s biggest names including Kenworth, Western Star, Isuzu, Iveco and Mack. Automatic slack adjuster In addition to its brake offering, Meritor also offers both manual and automatic slack adjusters (ASA) for on-highway, linehaul and vocational applications.The ASA is built to be robust and reliable but is also the lightest in the industry, which optimises brake performance and enhances camshaft bracket life. Meritor says that this is the industry's only ASA that adjusts on chamber stroke and reduces maintenance costs by eliminating the need for frequent under-thetruck brake adjustments. The ASA has a pull-pawl design with fewer moving parts to simplify service and enhance durability and reliability, while a fully sealed design resists contamination for longer component life. A ratchet-type adjuster mechanism minimises internal wear and maximises reliability, and its selfcontained design simplifies installation and eliminates need for grounding straps.

Winning COMPLIANCE STRATEGY

Isuzu’s NPR 45-150 AMT MWB Tradepack giveaway ensures you’re in safe hands

A brand-new NPR 45-150 AMT MWB Tradepack is up for grabs

Save your business time, labour and money

When it comes to transport in small businesses, particularly in the trades, the classic conundrum is often ‘truck or ute?’ Both have their place, and you should tailor this important decision to your business as best as possible. Now, with new compliance laws coming to the forefront, making sure that your vehicle is the right for your business might be more important than ever. Going forward, businesses large and small can all expect to hear much more about the Chain of Responsibility (CoR). The road transport industry is placing a greater focus on the CoR and the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) is doubling down on efforts to prosecute breaches of the new legislation governing this. This poses a significant threat to many businesses, though studies show that small fleets are in a particularly vulnerable position. As per Isuzu’s own Future of Trucking report, 35 per cent of small fleets are completely unprepared for, or unaware of, their CoR requirements. Having a truck in your fleet eliminates most overloading risks and shores up vulnerabilities to this new legislation. These trucks are safer for everyone involved and could save your business time, labour and money (not to mention the fines). Winner, winner So, if you’re planning on upgrading your business, growing your fleet, or striking out alone, you’re likely to be in need of safe, compliant, and reliable transport. Luckily, you may be able to get kitted-out without putting yourself in the red. Isuzu recently shared the news it will be giving away a brand-new NPR 45-150 AMT MWB Tradepack from the brand’s ever-

popular Ready-to-Work range. This massive giveaway coincides with Isuzu’s 50th year in Australia and a remarkable 33 years as market leaders. This is a unique opportunity to win not only a great truck, but also a whopping $5,000 worth of Mitre 10 vouchers, an all-inclusive Isuzu Service Agreement package and a $5,000 Isuzu accessories and merchandise voucher to top it all off. Isuzu’s Ready-to-Work range is designed to be ready to drive straight from the showroom to the work site. The Tradepack's hard-wearing aluminium tray includes a heavy-duty headboard, tough drop-sides and rope rails. The ladder rack design has been upgraded for heavier loads and improved flexibility. Its lightweight, high-grade aluminium construction means reduced tare weight, with no compromise on overall integrity or strength. The Tradepack even comes with a handy integrated wash station, a pull-out safety step, grab handles and Isuzu’s own genuine bullbar out front. Celebrate your win with a trip to Mitre 10 and use your $5,000 voucher to pick up all the essentials you will need for the job at hand. Add that personal touch to your new truck, too, with a $5,000 voucher to spend on extra merchandise and accessories from Isuzu. To round it all out and to ensure the longevity of your new truck, enjoy some peace of mind with a three-year Isuzu total service agreement, already paid for! With the promotion running from May to October 2022, entering is as easy as filling out a short form on the Isuzu website (isuzu.com. au). The draw will occur in November 2022.

Modern Transport Engineers (MTE) Australia supplies a wide range of trailer types across the country, with its latest addition – the Modern Ejector – making spreading of loads quicker and easier

relied on

MTE Australia, based in the Brisbane suburb of Tingalpa, is the Australian subsidiary of New Zealand’s MTE, set up as an expansion of its parent company in 2009. MTE Australia, run by director Mike Ratcliffe, builds an extensive range of trailers for the Australian transport market, covering everything from tilt decks and semi tippers to flat tops, b-trains and linkwings. MTE is one of the largest suppliers of specialised transport trailers in Australasia, priding itself on building modern trailers that meet a diverse client base’s requirements.

The Modern Ejector pushes material out of the trailer, allowing for spreading of material on an angle or downhill

Modern Ejector “Our newest addition to our fleet is the Modern Ejector, which comes in a varied range,” says Ratcliffe. “These trailers are fitted with the latest push-off technology that allows for the load to be pushed out while the truck is moving, to assist the spreading of the load.”

MTE Australia director Mike Radcliffe

Providing a product that can be

Available in 6x4 truck, 8x4 truck, four and five-axle trailer and semi configurations, Modern Ejector Technology provides a safer way to unload and spread material by removing the need to raise tipper trailers – preventing the striking of overhead obstructions and the risk of tipping over. With the Modern Ejector, as material is pushed out of the trailer internally, operators can spread on angled terrain and even when driving downhill. Flexibility MTE Australia strives to stay ahead of the pack with innovative trailer designs and flexible options. “Out linkwings run outboard drums for better servicing of trailers, and we were the first to design the sliding rub plate,” says Ratcliffe. “We maintain strong relationships with our clients and pride ourselves on providing a product that can be relied on.” With 300 staff across Australia and New Zealand, MTE Australia also provides maintenance services and spare parts. The company is currently working on making spare parts for a variety of trailer makes available in an online shop and its Tingalpa workshop specialises in servicing and maintenance along with refurbishing old trailers to look like new. No matter where you are based, MTE can supply its trailers across Australia. For more information, visit: www.modtrans.com.au

CALL FOR

Infrastructure is booming and the need for truck drivers is higher than ever, so if you’ve been thinking of trying something different, Fleet Plant Hire and its contractors need you

John Pollifrone has been working with Fleet Plant Hire for 25 years

It's all about the

attitude

that's why I stayed with Fleet Plant Hire

With the Covid pandemic putting huge pressure on supply chains and the Australian government focusing on infrastructure funding to increase economic growth, the need for skilled drivers is now one of the key issues for the trucking and construction industries. Melbourne’s Fleet Plant Hire, which provides plant and truck hire and material solutions to Victorian construction businesses across the state, is now looking to build its database of truck drivers as more and more work becomes available. One local contractor who has been working with Fleet Plant Hire for 25 years is John Pollifrone, the truck manager of 10 tippers at NEMA Vic Pty Ltd. “I'm looking for drivers all the time. It seems to be an issue throughout the industry at the moment,” he says. A lack of drivers for his tipper fleet is an ongoing concern for both Pollifrone, and many contractors in the state, as they look to take advantage of the infrastructure boom coming through the pipeline. This is confirmed by Fleet Plant Hire Scheduling coordinator – Team Leader Shane Treweek, who points out that this is an industry-wide issue. “We’ve got a number of contractors with trucks who are unable to run them all because they can't get people to drive them. It’s a common issue all around Melbourne at the moment – a severe lack of drivers. “There’s plenty of opportunities at the moment, the rates are pretty good, but contractors can’t cover everything due to the lack of drivers. And things are only going to get busier.”

Personal touch Discussing how Fleet Plant Hire aims to put excellent customer service at the heart of its operation, Shane Treweek says that a main point of difference is how it develops personal relationships with its contractors. “With a lot of other companies, contractors are just another number, with computerbased systems that just text message jobs out,” he says. “We try to ring people, talk to people, and treat them like a person. We are customer service-orientated, where we like to speak to people individually and not brush them off as just another driver or just another truck.” John Pollifrone says that his 25-year relationship with Fleet Plant Hire has remained strong due to mutual respect and the personal touch Fleet Plant Hire brings. “It’s all about the attitude – that's why I stayed with Fleet Plant Hire,” he says. “Fleet do the right thing by me because I've done the right thing by them. “They make sure that I've got work all the time. It saves me having to go and look for the work. With them passing jobs on to me it works out a lot better. This new eDocket system is very, very good. It makes my life a lot easier. It means I don't have to chase the paperwork.” Fleet Plant Hire’s eDocket system allows contractors to submit their dockets on their smartphone direct from the site, saving significant time. Fleet Plant Hire is now actively recruiting truck drivers and contractors who would like to work on a variety of projects. For more information, visit fph.com.au or call 03 9561 3988.

A Mack not your style? Then how about this striking 2011 Kenworth T659 prime mover sporting a 500hp (373kW) Cummins ISX engine and Rockwell six rod suspension.

Scan with your Smartphone camera to check out this deal!

’11 Kenworth T659 500hp Cummins ISX 666,718km $225,000 Torrington, QLD 07 3073 8140

With just under 16,500 hours on the clock it’s proven itself on the road but has plenty left to give. Just have a look through the pics of the classic Kenworth maroon-padded cabin – you can tell this rig has been well looked after. Built for versatility and to handle extreme conditions on Australia’s roads, the T659 has been designed to operate in applications ranging from general freight to logging, mining and livestock haulage. The sloping bonnet provides great visibility plus the set-back steer axle allows for an improved turning circle. This particular example comes with a FUPS alloy bullbar, Groeneveld auto greaser and a diesel-powered bunk cooler.

For more information, call Pengelly Truck and Trailer Sales and Service on 07 3073 8140.

Kenworth launches next level K220 The manufacturer has released its latest truck model in Brisbane Kenworth unveiled its next-level cabover in the K220 recently in Brisbane in front of 500 dealers, customers and industry partners. The project to develop the K220 began in late 2018 as customer and driver input became critical to the development of Kenworth’s latest truck model. “The K220 celebrates Australian ingenuity to engineer a uniquely Australian product to optimise the capability of both owners and drivers to prosper in what is surely the world’s toughest but most productive transport industry,” Kenworth director of sales and marketing Brad May says. “It is a development path that has been forged by an amazing collaboration between Australian transport operators and a dedicated and determined local development team that has spanned more than five decades.” Kenworth says it considered its consultation and development phase to be a key part of producing the K220, as the company looked to

build on its K200 model. Kenworth says the K220’s exterior is familiar but has new LED headlamps with integrated indicators and daytime running lights as well as a new grille with a more efficient fan. A new wheel well shield protects the engine bay while the most significant exterior change is the new wind cheating roof profile and the absence of trademark vista windows. The interior boasts a new 15-inch high-definition instrument panel that is customisable from driver to driver and trip to trip. The new roof profile increases headroom and provides greater overhead storage space, which is now triple the size. The new climate-controlled HVAC system also provides significantly improved performance. Kenworth says the K220 will perform a comprehensive systems check at the start of each day with the press of a button, as well as profiling a detailed trip and vehicle summary at the end of the day. An audio visual navigation unit displays controls for truck navigation,

Kenworth’s new K220 has been unveiled

audio system and smartphone mirroring, and can be integrated with up to six external cameras. SmartWheel and stalk-mounted control also enhances Kenworth’s technological development inside the truck. Equipped with Paccar’s telematics solution Paccar Connect, Kenworth says its interior is more spacious and quieter than ever, while the Cummins X15 Euro 6 and 5 engines make it a performance beast. The other main change for the latest model is in safety, as Kenworth has included multi-lane autonomous emergency braking and stop-and-go functionality to its growing list of systems. The K220 will be available in 1.7m day cab, 2.3m flat roof sleeper, 2.3m aerodynamic roof sleeper and 2.8m aerodynamic roof sleeper options.

SARTA survey warns of FTC casualties The transport industry warns if the FTC isn’t reinstated then around 3,500 transport companies may close A South Australian Road Transport Association (SARTA) survey says a large portion of the transport industry won’t survive past the end of the year unless the fuel tax credit (FTC) is reinstated. The industry’s concerns were included in a letter from SARTA CEO Steve Shearer to former prime minister Scott Morrison. The survey was initiated as the industry pleads with the new government to help transport operators before it’s too late. Shearer has been the industry spokesperson on the fuel excise crisis, having been appointed by the Australian Trucking Association’s (ATA) national council to coordinate a political approach to fix the issue. This included issuing a survey to Australian transport businesses to observe the impact the removal of the FTC has had on operators across the country. In what Shearer says is a “slight-ofhand move” by the former coalition government, the federal government funded only 4.3 cents per litre of the 22.1 cents per litre cut of the fuel excise earlier this year, instead removing the FTC for transport operators to force them to fund the other 17.8 cents per litre to ease the cost of fuel. In the survey. which Shearer says has produced consistent results since the first day, 80 per cent of operators

said they claim the FTC quarterly. Since the FTC was removed, 76 per cent of responders said they haven’t been able to offset the financial loss of not being able to claim the FTC. In a worrying trend, 57 per cent of businesses said they won’t survive if the FTC isn’t reinstated before a business activity statement (BAS) deadline of September 30, while eight per cent of operators said they wouldn’t survive if the FTC wasn’t restored before the next BAS payment date of July 1. “We had over 200 companies respond to the survey and the results showed a consistent pattern,” Shearer told ATN. “Our survey showed over 90 per cent of trucking companies will collapse if this current system continues.” In the long-run, 78 per cent of businesses said they won’t survive if the FTC is abolished permanently, supporting Shearer’s call for the new government to take action. “We saw the size of businesses responding and this issue largely affects small to medium sized operators,” Shearer says. “If eight per cent of small to medium operators won’t survive past July 1 without the FTC, that means around 3,500 truck companies disappear. “We can’t afford to lose these businesses.”

The removal of the fuel tax credit is having a serious impact on transport businesses

In an update in mid-June as Deals on Wheels went to press, SARTA announced that discussions were underway with new transport minister Catherine King’s chief of staff and other senior departmental staff to get the FTC issue looked at as a priority. “SARTA has not relented and has continued to press the new federal government to acknowledge and fix the FTC debacle created by the former government,” Shearer told ATN. “The first step was to overcome the new government’s priorities barrier and get the issue on the federal minister’s desk as an issue that requires urgent and immediate resolution, which we have achieved. “The second step is then to convince the government to restore the FTC. As a result of lengthy discussions we have achieved the second step, as the new federal minister have a full and detailed understanding of the issue and appreciate the risk posed if the FTC isn’t restored from July 1 at the latest.” For further discussion on how the FTC is being handled, see the feature ‘Fumbling the fuel tax credit’ starting page 120.

News The new Brisbane Daimler Truck dealership is now open

Daimler opens new Brisbane dealership Daimler Truck Australia has officially opened its new Brisbane dealership, with Velocity Vehicle Group opening the premises for operations Daimler is referring to the new dealership as its most advanced in the Daimler truck and bus network. The dealership was constructed at a cost of more than $35 million and will sell Mercedes-Benz trucks as well as Freightliner and Fuso brands. The Velocity Vehicle Group’s new dealership is a 9,500 square metre facility located on the Ipswich Motorway near a critical transport hub in Brisbane’s south-west. The dealership features a 36-bay

workshop with two 29m-long B-double pits, a shaker and roller tester, three wash bays, three express assessment bays and an external hardstand for 126 trucks. A separate service reception and customer lounge is also included on site with a sales customer lounge. The dealership forms the first all-new premises constructed by the Velocity Vehicle Group since it joined the Daimler Truck network in 2021. Velocity Vehicle Group Australia

Penske opens second Brisbane branch

The truck brand is about to open its new Queensland facility Penske Australia opened its doors to its new Lytton branch on June 6 – its second branch in Brisbane. The new Penske location will be located adjacent to the Port of Brisbane and Brisbane Airport operations and will represent Western Star Trucks, MAN, Dennis Eagles, Detroit and Allison Transmission brands.

“Our growing customer base in southeast Queensland gave us an opportunity to explore locations for a second facility in addition to our current Wacol branch,” Penske eastern region general manager John Delany says. “It was quickly evident that Lytton was an ideal location to bookend Brisbane and extend our coverage of customers.”

executive vice president Richard Higgins says the dealership has been in the works for quite some time. “The new facility has already provided greater opportunities to service our customers with more bays and expanded parts storage, meaning we feel fortunate with the timing as our old location was underwater earlier in the year,” Higgins says. Daimler Truck Australia president and CEO Daniel Whitehead says: “Velocity Vehicle Group has already made an immensely positive impact on the Daimler Truck dealership network in Australia and the fantastic new dealership is a concrete example of its commitment. “It represents a significant investment and we know that our customers will appreciate this brilliant new facility.” Daimler Trucks Brisbane will offer service across two shifts from 7am to 10pm and a full 24/7 breakdown service, as it now also features a 33 per cent larger integrated parts warehouse to ensure that more parts are on hand for customers.

The new branch includes 19 workshop bays

The new space contains a 2,650 square-metre workshop and a 250 square-metre warehouse across a 11,100 square-metre site. The large site includes 19 workshop bays, an overhead crane gantry and a brake and suspension tester. Lytton branch manager Matt Oldham said just before the launch: “Our team is working hard to ensure that when the doors open to our customers we will be ready to provide our renowned Penske customer service excellence. “Newly furnished with high performing equipment, we are keen to receive our on-highway customers and their assets.” Both Oldham and Delany say they are confident the team will enjoy working in the new facilities as they look to add diesel technicians as services increase. The Lytton branch is located at Unit 2/52 Trade Street Lytton.

ALC welcomes new federal transport ministers In an industry-first, the TWU is partnering with an online food ordering company to pursue better rights for gig workers The Australian Logistics Council (ALC) welcomed the appointments of ministers related to the Australian freight and logistics supply chain portfolio after the recent federal election. ALC CEO Brad Williams congratulated the new ministers sworn in by parliament and welcomed the opportunity to continue discussions with the new government. Williams says he now wants to focus on the importance of the supply chain to Australia’s economy with the new ministers. This includes the recently appointed minister for infrastructure, transport, regional development and local government Catherine King.

Catherine King. The ALC wants new ministers to work collaboratively on protecting the supply chain

“This is an important time for the sector and we look forward to working collaboratively with the new government,” Williams says. “The ALC worked closely with King during her time as shadow minister and we are confident that her understanding of the industry will serve the sector well.” The ALC says it is also looking forward to working with senator Carol Brown, who will assume the position of assistant minister for infrastructure and transport. “There is a big task ahead of us with Australia’s urban freight task alone expected to grow by 60 per cent by 2040,” Williams says. “We need to focus on shaping tomorrow’s supply chain today if we’re going to stay ahead of this growth.” The ALC CEO wants the industry to continue working with the federal government to support the nation’s supply chain and improve safety, productivity and sustainability based on challenges and lessons learned in recent times. Williams also congratulated and looks forward to working with ministers Chris Bowen and Brendan O’Connor in their new roles, given the importance of the energy transition and emissions reduction challenges, as well as the skills shortage in the supply chain, he says.

Transport for New South Wales (TfNSW) helped to complete one of the biggest road movements in the state’s history, recently. In a video released on Facebook, TfNSW detailed how it aided the transport of a gas turbine from Port Kembla to Yallah overnight. “One of the biggest road movements in NSW has taken place,” TfNSW says. “We helped transport a 370-tonne gas turbine 18km from Port Kembla to the EnergyAustralia site in Yallah.” TfNSW says the huge effort helped

The convoy was 112m long and took six hours to transport the turbine

an entire convoy that was more than 112 metres long get across the state’s roads to Yallah. Transport company Lampson handled the load. The combination had a total mass of more than 730 tonnes, with the load carried on two trailers, with two trucks pushing and two pulling it. The turbine, shipped from Charleston, South Carolina, will form part of Australia’s first offset gas and carbon hydrogen power plant.

Volvo issues big truck recall The truck manufacturer has had to recall more than 700 Australian trucks Volvo Trucks has issued a recall of 725 affected trucks in Australia ranging across five models in the 2021–2022 year range. The Volvo Group Australia says the recall applies to the FH13, FH16, FM11, FM13 and FMX13 trucks from 2021–2022. Due to a software issue, Volvo says the front windscreen wipers may fail leading to poor visibility for drivers in the event of rain.

This poor visibility can lead to a risk of collision while out on the roads. Volvo says owners of the affected vehicles can contact their nearest authorised Volvo Group repairing dealer to schedule an appointment so the work can be carried out free of charge.

More EWD options are now available for drivers, including Hubfleet

NHVR expands access to EWDs The national regulator now allows two more work diary options on various phones

EPA fines drivers over covers The EPA and NHVR remind operators to ensure compliant covering of loads The Environment Protection Authority (EPA) has fined eight truck drivers for failing to properly cover waste loads as part of a compliance push. The EPA established a joint operation with the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) to educate SA waste transporters about the need to restrain all loads to maintain the safety of the community and surrounding environment. EPA officers were carried out at the Integrated Waste Services (IWS) Dublin and Wingfield depots as officers worked with the NHVR’s safety and compliance enforcers to perform heavy vehicle on road compliance and enforcement activities under the Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL). EPA investigations manager Stephen Barry says fines of $192 had been sent to eight operators out of the 10 that were checked. “The EPA licences waste transporters and while it doesn’t specify the types of covers required, transporters must comply with the Environment Protection Act 1993 and take all practicable steps to cover loads,” Barry says.

Transporters must take all practicable steps to adequately cover loads

“Waste escaping from trucks can cause a hazard for other drivers and a litter problem on public roads.” The EPA says reasons given by drivers included not being supplied with a cover by the vehicle’s owner or not having enough time to apply and remove a cover during loading and unloading. NHVR southern region operations director Paul Simionato says it’s vital owners and operators understand their safety and regulatory obligations when transporting waste. “Companies have a legal duty to ensure every load is secured adequately and they provide appropriate scheduling for drivers in order to maintain safety on our roads,” Simionato says. These two depots in SA were chosen following complaints to the EPA about transporters discarding waste on public roads. The EPA says it will conduct further operations across SA.

The National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) is making electronic work diaries (EWDs) available to more members of the transport industry. EWDs are now available on more devices as part of the NHVR approving the first device agnostic EWD in Hubfleet EWD, while the regulator also approved Step Global’s Smart eDriver diary for use on specific Apple devices. NHVR fatigue specialist Andreas Blahous says the approval of these two EWDs further expands the range of mobile devices that drivers can use with EWD software. Blahous says this has the potential to allow more drivers to use existing mobile devices as EWDs, opening the EWD process for more industry members. “We have approved the Hubfleet EWD software for use on any mobile electronic device, so long as that device meets a range of minimum specifications and outputs,” Blahous says. “Smart eDriver 2.0 by Step Global can also be used on the Apple iPhone 8 and the sixth generation Apple iPad.” Blahous says in the past 18 months the NHVR has approved seven EWD providers ready to be sold commercially and utilised legally by heavy vehicle drivers in place of written work diaries. The NHVR fatigue specialist says the EWD expansion may only continue in future. “We expect this to continue to grow, making it easier for providers to add more devices and reducing the cost on operators and drivers,” Blahous says. The NHVR reminds drivers that they are still required to use an approved EWD to record work and rest hours.

Brown and Hurley has opened a Bundaberg branch

Truck dealer opens new branch The Australian dealership is expanding into regional Queensland Australian truck and trailer dealership Brown and Hurley has opened a new regional branch in Bundaberg to provide servicing and parts from its Bundaberg East workshop. Brown and Hurley says the business services all of Queensland and northern New South Wales, with strong business meaning the dealers have had to open a Bundaberg branch. The retirement of the owners at Ken Landt Diesel means the left-over space at 104 Scotland Street was perfect for Brown and Hurley. “Brown and Hurley are excited to be in a position to now better service the Bundaberg region with a range of Paccar parts products, along with quality technicians and an experienced parts team,” Brown and Hurley CEO Paul Hurley says. “The team in Bundaberg will have training in the Paccar brands over the coming months and look forward to having the opportunity to service existing and new customers in the region.” Hurley says the move was part of the company’s expansion due to recent success, as the Bundaberg team will join more than 480 Brown and Hurley staff across Australia. The Bundaberg branch of Brown and Hurley features 10 local employees that includes three administration staff, three parts staff and four service technicians. “Over the past 75 years Brown and Hurley has grown to become one of Australia’s largest truck and trailer dealer networks,” Hurley says. “With strategically placed dealerships and more than 480 employees to serve its customers, Brown and Hurley provides trucking companies the full solution for trucks, trailers, spare parts, service and repairs, along with finance and rental equipment.”

Skyroad Logistics’ huge Kenworth order The logistics company has chosen to go with Kenworth and Cummins again In a display of Skyroad Logistics’ partnership with Kenworth and Cummins, the logistics group has issued its largest fleet order yet. The new commitment involves ordering 25 new Kenworth trucks comprised of 16 K200 models and the new K220, T610, T909 and T360 versions along with the option to deliver across both 2022 and into 2023. Skyroad Logistics is a business focused on wholesale transport and logistics operations for freight forwarders, airliners and air cargo charter operators, as its network now spans across all major capital city airports in Australia. It says its latest Kenworth order followed a review of data available from experience with the company’s current Kenworth Euro 6 fleet along with extended trials of a major European brand. Skyroad first chose to use the Kenworth K200 when it began operating in 2015 due to its flexible and practical platforms that could integrate with the company’s performance-based standards vehicle designs. Included in these trucks is

the Cummins Euro 6 emissions technology that provides up to 87 per cent reductions in emission versus the Euro 5. The order includes a number of Kenworth T909 models, while Skyroad will also deploy Kenworth T610s that mirror the K200/K220 specifications. Skyroad Group managing director Peter Assel says the company made a strategic decision to renew its fleet and continue growing its operations with the order. “This is a major order in the context of our company’s short six-year history,” Assel says. “With lead times for equipment growing we need to make our fleet decisions now. “Kenworth and Cummins have worked with us from inception to show these customers via real data and computer modelling that we can deliver on what we say. The order we have placed underpins the commitments we are making with those customers.”

News Infrastructure NSW wants to extend the Sydney Gateway to Port Botany

Infrastructure NSW plans freight extension The state body wants to see certain freight road works prioritised New South Wales’ independent infrastructure body, Infrastructure NSW, says it plans to extend the Sydney Gateway road project to Port Botany to facilitate freight movements. Infrastructure NSW says the extension from Sydney Airport to Port Botany is an immediate priority and must be completed properly. The proposed $2.6 billion link

has been criticised because it ends near the domestic terminal rather than continuing to the port, as it is currently located between the WestConnex St Peters interchange and the airport. The extension is planned to open at the end of 2024, but Infrastructure NSW has released a report on it, called Staying Ahead: State Infrastructure Strategy 2022-2042.

The report says the first order priority for the project is to ensure the efficiency of the Sydney Airport to Port Botany international gateway is paramount. “Delivery of WestConnex Sydney Gateway and the federal government’s Port Botany rail duplication will significantly improve freight movement in the short to medium-term,” the strategy says. “As these projects reach completion, focus should move to improving the missing link between Sydney Gateway and Port Botany, including delivery options that suit private sector funding. “A direct and fast road link between Sydney Gateway and Port Botany would improve efficient and reliable access between the port, surrounding industrial lands and key distribution locations in western Sydney.” NSW infrastructure minister Rob Stokes says the 20-year strategy offers important recommendations to consider.

Castlereagh Highway is one of six highways being upgraded

NSW introduces safety measures The government is adding safety precautions to six major NSW freight routes The New South Wales government says it’s including more than 2,700km of rumble strips on rural highways to combat driver fatigue and benefit driver safety. NSW regional transport and roads minister Sam Farraway says these new rumble strips will replace existing

reflective markers on six state highways under a commitment to make regional roads safer. “Rumble strips are estimated to reduce fatalities and injuries by 15 to 25 per cent – particularly in crashes associated with fatigue or distraction,” Farraway says. “Through the saving lives accelerated

program [SLAP] our government has committed $46 million over the next three years to install rumble strips and enhance line-marking on key regional routes. “It’s part of our $14.5 billion investment into regional roads and transport to improve everyday life for people living and working in NSW.” Under the new program, the Cobb Highway (Hay to Moama), Castlereagh Highway (Lithgow to Dunedoo), Golden Highway (Singleton to Dubbo), Kamilaroi Highway (Quirindi to Bourke), Gwydir Highway (Grafton to Moore) and Oxley Highway (Wauchope to Coonabarabran) will be upgraded. The work has commenced, with reduced speed limits of 40km/h in place along with single lane closures.

Sections of the Bruce Highway will be upgraded

New government to expand Bruce Highway The new federal government is immediately looking to make the Bruce Highway safer and less congested for freight operators

Freight operator access made easier in NSW The state is making a recent freight access scheme permanent The New South Wales government is permanently allowing the heavy vehicle farm gate access network so freight operators can move produce easily from farms to markets. NSW regional transport and roads minister Sam Farraway announced the trialled network would now become permanent. Farraway says the successful trial in six pilot areas of NSW means the network will become permanent to improve access to local roads for heavy vehicles, cutting red-tape by reducing the need to apply for access permits. “The trial of the farm gate access network has been a success for both industry and local government and it provides council better insight into freight movements on their roads,” Farraway says. “Modern heavy vehicles are fitted with telematics which provides both the operators and councils an accurate picture of their movement and can be used to base road upgrade priorities on. “For the farmer and transport operators, the scheme significantly cuts the red tape of making a permit application every time they want to use a local road often to the farm’s front gate.”

The recent decision will make it easier for trucks to access farms

Farraway says the networked was developed by Transport for NSW, Livestock Bulk and Rural Carriers Association, NSW Farmers and partnering councils. “With the trial becoming permanent, we expect more councils to take advantage of what telematics data can offer which will drive productivity improvement in our regions,” he says. The president of the Livestock Bulk & Rural Carriers Association (LBRCA) Paul Pulver says he is proud to be part of the initiative. “The NSW farm gate access network will increase productivity and economy of task for transporters while delivering strong safety benefits for local communities by reducing the number of freight movements and the cost of business,” Pulver says. “Fewer road movements, less pollution and lower operating costs equals safer roads, better loads and less red tape.” Currently 12 NSW councils and over 135 vehicles are participating in the initiative.

The newly elected federal government says it will expand Queensland’s Bruce Highway to make the freight route better and help get people through the road sooner and safer. The government says it will work to expand the highway from six to eight lanes between Anzac Avenue and Uhlmann Road. The announcement partners the government’s $200 million commitment to widen the highway between Dohles Rocks Road and Anzac Avenue, with this new boost expected to improve the Bruce Highway for freight operators. The Bruce Highway is known as a key Queensland freight route and an important commuter corridor, but the federal government wants to ease congestion on the 13-kilometre stretch of road between Mango Hill and South Caboolture. “I want to be a prime minister who builds things,” prime minister Anthony Albanese says. “Building better roads means jobs for Queenslanders, increased productivity as people and freight move around quicker and a safer journey for people returning home from work.” With Brisbane’s north becoming a focus area with the Olympics on the horizon, the federal government says easing congestion will protect and enhance the lifestyle of Queensland workers and citizens. The government is partnering with the Queensland state government to invest a further $586.4 million to deliver the $733 million upgrade on the freight corridor. The federal government expects the project to support 535 direct jobs and deliver time savings, improved safety, greater freight reliability and flood immunity improvements when completed.

PacNat chief executive Paul Scurrah

Cost pressures inhibiting industry PacNat CEO says company working hard to keep its driver levels intact Pacific National says the current freight and logistics industry is struggling to recover costs and maintain skilled workers in the sector. Speaking to the ABC’s Kathryn Robinson on The Business, PacNat chief executive Paul Scurrah said recent problems caused by the Covid pandemic and border closures are still having an impact on the freight industry. “Currently we’re seeing an enduring issue regarding worker shortages while we also lose workers to Covid or close contact rules, and it’s having a pretty big impact on industry,” Scurrah says. “With issues such as the lockdown in China seeing imports drop, there’ll be some tough times going forward. There’s a lot of cost pressures on our supply chain right now and it’s being felt by everybody.” To follow this cost-of-living squeeze, Scurrah says PacNat has continued its temporary Covid levy and seen costs of business increase to recover skyrocketing prices. As the company anticipates losing 20 per cent of its drivers in the coming years, Scurrah says PacNat will have to work hard to maintain driver stocks and pay them appropriately. “With a low unemployment rate it’s been difficult to get new drivers in so we’re keen to see migration pick up again so we can see the unemployment rate go to an acceptable level,” Scurrah says. PacNat says it will continue working with customers to ensure the increased costs are dispersed accordingly throughout the supply chain. While Scurrah says his business will continue to play a leading role in intermodal services, he also urges the new federal government to complete the Inland Rail project. “We’re proud of the role we’re playing and our investments in Acacia Ridge. “We know we’ll form a necessary part of the government’s supply chain and have invested ahead of the curve to ensure we’re there with changes in intermodal freight.”

MAN releases new dealership location The vehicle group has opened a new Queensland dealership MAN Trucks & Bus recently released a new dealer location on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast under the Wideland dealership Group. The new dealership comprises a 1,125 square-metre facility located in Chavellum with four full-depth truck bays and two drive-through express service bays. MAN says the new facilities allow for improved access for customers, as the dealership is located just off the Bruce Highway on a 7,050 squaremetre site used by the group’s larger workshop and sales area. The upgrades mean there’s also an extensive warehouse added on that allows for greater inventory stock and a parts express delivery service that will commence in the second quarter of 2022. “The newly-opened Chevallum Industrial Park afforded us the opportunity to build a facility that has improved customer access as well as an enhanced layout to showcase our Western Star, MAN, Dennis Eagle

MAN’s new dealership has opened on the Sunshine Coast

and Detroit products and services,” Wideland Group fixed operations manager Mark Dobson says. “By investing in an expressservice platform truck hoists, an additional four-post set of fullywireless hoists, bunded bulk oil tanks and centralised oil distribution metered gantries, our customers will realise increased efficiencies and turnaround times.” With these upgrades come increased offerings, such as a new in-house weighing and brake test service. “The larger facility and new equipment combined with the expansion of our sales and aftersales teams also means we will attract the best talent to support our customers in the growing Sunshine Coast region,” Dobson says.

Diagnostics: Open Road With a new change in government comes hope that the fuel tax credit will be reinstated

The supply chain matters – just like Burgernomics NatRoad research shows Australians are aware of how important trucks are to the flow of goods around the country A very serious magazine named The Economist came up with The Big Mac Index in 1986 as a lighthearted measure of whether world currencies are at their ‘correct’ level. The concept of Burgernomics is based on the theory of purchasingpower parity (PPP), which says that long-term exchange rates should move towards a level that would equalise the prices of an identical basket of goods and services – or a hamburger – in any two countries. At the time of writing, according to the Big Mac Index, the Australian dollar was undervalued against the US dollar.* Burgernomics is a tangible way to communicate the impact of economics on our lives. We might not know one end of a J curve from another, but we’ve all sampled fast food – even if your palate leans more towards a quality roadhouse T-bone than a double cheeseburger with an upsized Coke. Which leads us to the issue of what Australians understand about the impacts of supply chain issues on the prices they are prepared to pay for everyday goods. This was one thing NatRoad had in mind when it commissioned research to gauge what Aussies think of the road transport industry and its importance in their lives. Independent consultants StollzNow Research canvassed an

Warren Clark, CEO of the National Road Transport Association

online panel of 1,000 people aged 18 and above. The research found that almost all Australians either strongly agree (68 per cent) or agree (30 per cent) that road freight is an essential industry. Only two per cent answered in the negative. That probably shouldn’t come as a surprise in the wake of the worst of the global pandemic. NatRoad-commissioned focus group research underlined strong support for the road freight transportation industry from the general public. The one thing that came across strongly is that people believe that Australia cannot function without trucks. The question that needs to be asked is whether our political leaders feel the same way. Sometimes, you’d be entitled to think otherwise. The former federal government’s decision to zero out our industry’s fuel tax credit (FTC) in its Budget, while halving the excise levied on fuel at the bowser, was a tremendous

blow to operators who depend on maintaining cash flow. At the time it was waved away as an unintended consequence, but Treasury knew enough to issue an explanatory note on Budget night. This suggested the bureaucrats knew exactly what they had done and were trying to claw back revenue to make the books look better. Diesel prices were already sky-high, due in no small part to global issues, including the war in Ukraine. At the time, we pointed out that taking away the FTC would flow through to the price the public paid for goods and services. Ten days out from Polling Day, we were co-signatories to an industry letter to the Morrison government saying that the flow-on effect of wiping out the FTC could be cost $20 a week for the average family. The issue of ‘gotcha questions’ had dominated the first two weeks of a largely forgettable federal election campaign, but nobody thought to interrogate either leader on the cost of a head of lettuce. A few weeks later, and with the price climbing past the $10 mark, who would have thought we’d all be discussing how much people were forking out for a humble Iceberg? NatRoad’s research examined our industry’s significance to people but not their depth of knowledge about supply chains. Most Aussies know it is complicated and that we’re an important part of it. NatRoad looks forward to working with the Albanese government and is cautiously optimistic that it ‘gets’ our issues. Tellingly, our research finds that 37 per cent of Australians who would change their vote are likely or much more likely to support a Member of Parliament who supports our industry. Hopefully that will provide nutritious food for thought as the new government gets down to business. *A Big Mac costs A$6.40 in Australia and US$5.81 in the United States. The implied exchange rate is 1.10. The difference between this and the actual exchange rate, 1.42, suggests the Australian dollar is 22.4 per cent undervalued

This was one of the largest maintenance upgrades in the south-west Victoria region

Victoria boosts safety of key freight route The state government has completed works on Lavers Hill-Cobden Road The Victorian government is boosting safety along a key south-west freight route in Cobden by providing a vital connection for freight and tourism in the area. Large section of Lavers Hill-Cobden Road will be rebuilt to better connect the region while also adding safety measures to the road. The government says crews have worked over the past few months to rebuild 3.7km of Lavers Hill-Cobden Road to make it one of the biggest maintenance upgrades in the south-west region. The new surface that sits between Cobden and Jancourt East has been resealed and had its line marking completed along with recently installed safety barriers that will prevent run-off-road crashes. The Victorian government says the $3.9 million pavement rehabilitation will benefit 1,000 daily motorists, particularly freight operators that make up 20 per cent of daily users of the route for access to farms and local markets. Now that safety upgrades have been completed, the 100 kilometres per hour speed limit has been reintroduced along the arterial route. The government credits a $115 Inland Routes program as the reason for the works being done, as the program seeks to improve various connecting inland roads between the Great Ocean Road and the Princes Highway. The program was announced at the 2020 state budget and has since improved the resilience of the Great Ocean Road, as the state government says this investment ensures the inland roads better support local freight operators in south-western Victoria.

Operators slam slow repairs Local operators want to see more urgent road repairs on main freight routes Transport businesses in Victoria’s south-west region say the state government must act quickly to maintain busy freight corridors before worsening conditions make them unsafe for heavy vehicles. South-west transport operators that support Australia’s largest dairy production region say the slow speed of road maintenance is costing money while also inhibiting safety for drivers. In 2019 five councils in the area sent a submission to the Victorian government asking for $317.5 million per year over 10 years to upgrade roads in the region. “For a long time now there’s been a road we travel on daily which was having a massive impact on our truck suspension,” Webber and Chivell Fertilisers managing director Andrew Chivell says. “There were potholes, washaways, narrow shoulders, bumps a foot deep, humps and hollows.” This road is the Lavers Hill-Cobden Road that the state government recently finished upgrading (see accompanying story). “It’s probably taken us five years campaigning and doing the

Improving roads would increase productivity and reduce haulage costs

dairy submission to get it done up,” Chivell says. Previously, the unsafe road was ruining suspensions and springs on many trailers that form part of Chivell’s 25-vehicle fleet. “We have businesses to run, why can’t we have a system where we talk to the shire and the shire actually gets listened to?” Chivell says. The Barwon South West dairy supply chain study says the region is responsible for 24 per cent of the nation’s milk production. “The freight task needed to transport production inputs, milk and finals goods to market is significant and costs industry around $345 million a year,” the study says. The study found that improving roads and increasing the productivity of freight vehicles in the region would result in a reduction in haulage costs of $4.93 per tonne. The report says increased funding is needed for resurfacing, rehabilitating, widening and strengthening bridges along the freight route.

Feature ATA chair David Smith says he is confident the change of government will yield positive changes for the transport industry

Impact of changing government It’s a new dawn for all of Australian politics following the federal election recently, but the transport industry is also coming to terms with what the results mean for the sector going forward. Sean Mortell reports When Anthony Albanese took the stage after winning the federal election and confirmed he would become Australia’s next prime minister, many industries wondered how their relationship with federal politicians would change. The transport industry wasn’t excluded from this. There are many issues facing the sector, including a lack of AdBlue, fuel tax credits and skilled workers. For Australian Trucking Association (ATA) chair David Smith, the changing of the guard in Australia’s federal politics is cause for hope. “This change creates an opportunity to advance the transport industry and re-engage with new people to try and resolve recurring issues,” Smith says to ATN. “We tend to look forward and not back. It’s an opportunity to move forward and realign, refocus and re-engage.” Although Smith says he went into the election thinking both parties

were on even footing, the Labor party (ALP) stormed to victory. With ‘teal’ independents winning vital seats and the ALP claiming enough seats to form a government, the previous Liberal and Nationals coalition no longer held dominance in parliament. For many it can be just politics, but this change can have a profound impact on the transport industry. “I’m quietly optimistic so far that we’ll see change under this government,” Smith says. “We have had good engagement with the ALP at this stage. It’s so interlinked. “There’s so much reform on our plate at the moment that you have to wonder if we’re going to be the most reformed industry in Australia in the next couple of years.” Despite this optimism, Smith says he is still in the dark when it comes to the new government’s plans for tackling transport issues. From the ATA’s standpoint, at the time of going to press it hadn’t heard

from any politicians about what they want to do to resolve the rising fuel price issue. Smith also warned that there were only a few weeks’ worth of AdBlue supplies left. Combined with the previous government’s plans to shut down the Gibson Island distribution plant, Smith hopes the new government doesn’t sweep the issue under the carpet. However, Smith says that these issues aren’t his biggest priority. “I’ve got to say that safety is still our number one objective,” Smith says. “The ATA’s target is no deaths and no injuries and that has to be number one. “To move into that area we really need a much more effective riskbased modern law. It then becomes interlinked with the other problems that face our industry.” Other issues that fall under Smith’s umbrella of transport challenges that he’ll present to the next transport minister include a skilled driver shortage, driver health and safety,

Feature QTA CEO Gary Mahon is hoping for greater investment in infrastructure to support freight movement

licensing systems and the ongoing Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL) reform. Smith says the ATA has so far had constructive discussions with Labor transport minister Catherine King about the myriad of matters the transport industry needs to address with politicians. With the ALP also committing in a pre-election move to inject $80 million into building improved truck rest stops across the country, Smith is optimistic about what the next few years can bring for the industry. “I’m definitely looking forward to engaging with the new government and progressing the industry further,” Smith says. “The chats we’ve had with them so far have been general discussions where we touched on individual issues but never really drilled right down. “The ALP’s rest stop commitment and their moves to repair more regional roads make me hopeful of what will come when we sit down with the new government.” Payment changes While, nationally, the transport industry is adjusting to this change of government, no state has been disrupted more than Queensland. Although all but two seats were retained by the existing party, a heavy swing towards the ALP and Greens parties in most Queensland seats means the political nature of the state is changing. Queensland Trucking Association (QTA) CEO Gary Mahon is working quickly to adjust to the new party in charge and its preferences for the transport industry. After looking through the ALP’s intentions for the sector while in government, Mahon sees them heading in a certain direction. “I think the biggest impact in a direct sense of business is in the minimum standards and pay rise movement,” Mahon says to ATN. “If that’s the case then there will be

more room for operators to negotiate and reasonably agree rather than hoping it happens. “There’s also a broader question on what direction they’ll take with the HVNL reform and if there’s a philosophical shift on how it gets applied.” One key difference Mahon has already noticed from the new government is its change of stance on road infrastructure investments. It formed the backbone of the coalition government’s transport initiatives, but now Mahon is seeing the ALP already heading in a different direction. Instead, Mahon says the incoming government has an imminent question about the fuel issue and its commercial viability on road freight businesses facing the ALP. While this problem lingers, Mahon isn’t sure whether the government can focus its attention on any other transport challenges. “We’re waiting to hear about what steps they will take on all of these issues,” Mahon says. “The fuel tax credit problem is having a significant impact on businesses right now. “It needs to get resolved so then we can move on to other issues.” Mahon says it all revolves around a skilled workers shortage that must be addressed before it slips even further. For immediate rectification, Mahon suggests the ALP elevates truck driving

from a level four to level three ANZSCO code to make it easier for skilled migrants to enter the industry. When it comes to road safety problems, Mahon has some key works in mind for Queensland that he would love to see. “We currently feel short-changed in road infrastructure investment,” Mahon says. “We would like to see commitments made quite early to the Inland Freight route to get those upgrades underway. We would also like to see the second North-South corridor being made that’s freight specific and as close to an all-weather road as you can get.” Much like the ATA, Mahon is hopeful that the change of government can be the catalyst to kickstart new vital transport projects in the coming years. When it comes to the ALP resolving transport issues, Mahon says the government should remember the importance of the industry to the everyday running of Australia. “The best way of expressing it is that we have no particular concerns that the government won’t focus on economic growth and a growthfriendly environment for business,” Mahon says. “Our road freight industry is full of good employers and it’s vital. “We’ve prevailed and done an exemplary job in recent times. We expect the government to respect that and work with us to instil proposed changes.”

Victoria keeping freight moving in Mildura The Victorian government says new freight rail works will free movement in regional areas The Victorian government is continuing to boost the rail freight network in Mildura – making it safer, easier and quicker for freight operators and farmers to transport their local produce to port. Minister for ports and freight Melissa Horne visited citrus exporter Mildura Fruit Company (MFC) and freight provider Seaway Intermodal – which plays a crucial role in moving fruit, wine, grain and peas and will benefit from works soon to be carried out to upgrade the rail freight corridor. The works will allow for heavier and more frequent trains to operate on freight rail between Mildura and the Port of Melbourne and will get underway in coming months. The works include siding extension works at Merbein near Mildura, to allow 1,200m-long trains to stable away from the main line so grain trains can run more frequently to Yelta, ahead of what is expected to be another bumper grain season. Crossing loops further south will also be extended to allow opposing 1,200m-long freight trains to pass each other and increase the current

Seaway service between Mildura to the Port of Melbourne from to three to five days a week, moving thousands more tonnes of freight by rail and removing thousands of trucks from local roads. An average loaded 800m-long intermodal freight train carries a massive $2.25 million worth of produce – which is the equivalent of 55 semi-trailers removed from local roads and makes Victorian roads safer and reduces carbon emissions according to the state government. Packed citrus product from the MFC forms a major portion of Seaway Intermodal’s freight business, with approximately 5,000 containers of produce moved per annum by rail from MFC alone. The Victorian budget 2022/23 will deliver $181 million for critical maintenance works on the regional rail freight network to improve rail freight competitiveness and support the growing freight task that is vital to regional economies and supply chains. A further $3.5 million has been allocated by the Victorian government to extend the Mode Shift Incentive Scheme (MSIS).

Victoria is working to improve its regional rail freight services

The MSIS supports more than 170 freight industry jobs at intermodal terminals in regional Victoria – including Seaway Intermodal – and removes the equivalent of 28,000 truck trips from the state’s roads every year. The works are being delivered by Rail Projects Victoria as part of the Murray Basin Rail Project and support 1,000 direct and indirect jobs during delivery. Upgrade works have also recently been carried out on the Mildura line to improve the condition of the track and reduce the risk of infrastructure faults which can delay grain loading. Horne says the projects will help keep freight moving through Mildura. “These works will provide a huge benefit,” Horne says. “They’ll allow for more frequent and heavier services of fruit, wine, grain and peas to operate on freight trains between Mildura and the Port of Melbourne.”

WA calls for urgent action Western Roads Federation has issued a three-point plan to lure more truck drivers into the industry Western Australian transport industry members are calling for urgent action to help fix the current skills shortage in the trucking sector. Western Roads Federation (WRF) CEO Cam Dumesny says members estimate that the state is losing over $2 million a day, just across the resources bulk haulage sector, due to truck driver shortages. The WRF says similar shortages are being reported in other parts of WA’s transport industry, with some bulk haulage operators reporting a more than 15 per cent shortage in truck drivers. “The WRF is offering to constructively collaborate with the federal government on a simple three-point plan to urgently address these issues,” Dumesny says. The plan issued by WRF includes: • Ensuring truck driver shortages are identified on the National Skills Priority Migration Skills Occupation List as a shortage with future strong demand, as current skills

shortages are determined by using online job adverts • Removing the bureaucratic barriers within the Immigration Department that are holding up skilled migration for months under the Designed Area Migration Agreements • Working with industry to develop a truck driver course for international drivers that independently verify competency adhere to WA heavy vehicle regulations and follow on road safe trucking practices in Australia Dumesny wants the industry to immediately focus on the first point of recognising truck driving as a skilled shortage priority. “People that fix horseshoes are identified as in short supply but not the people to drive horsepower,” Dumesny says. “For a combination of reasons, many transport companies in WA have long given up on using online job adverts.

The WRF has issued plans to fix the skilled driver shortage

“With one member who requires in excess of 150 drivers now just posting a single generic advert online, the numbers of actual drivers needed isn’t even properly listed.” Other solutions include supporting the WA government joint industry and TAFE truck driver training program and fixing taxation barriers. Dumesny says the training program has now employed over 90 per cent of graduates, but that attracting people to the course has become challenging due to near record low unemployment rates. He also says a critical element of the WA training model includes the engagement of experienced industry drivers to help mentor students, as the model was originally intended to use recently retired drivers to mentor only for current taxation rules to penalise drivers engaging in this.

The recall affects a small number of Australian trucks

Thousands of Penske trucks recalled The manufacturing problem is starting to hit a small number of Australian trucks Penske Australia says several local truck models are included in potential defect identified by US component manufacturer RH Sheppard. RH Sheppard says the manufacturing of steering gears between June 1, 2021 and February 10 this year means more than 100,000 Penske trucks, including Volvo, Daimler and Kenworth, have been recalled. Authorities are yet to examine the potential for 105,271 vehicles to be recalled, with Sheppard saying only a fraction of these trucks contain the said steering gear that would require the vehicle to be recalled. Sheppard told the US recall body in the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that a small percentage of steering gears were assembled without the necessary amount of internal recirculating balls. If a steering gear doesn’t have enough internal recirculating balls then it may bind when loads are applied to the truck. Sheppard says in some cases the balls can even align on the same side of the worm shaft, meaning concentrated loads may cause the gear’s internal parts to fracture that would ultimately result in a dangerous loss of vehicle steering for the driver. Penske Australia says only a small number of local Western Star models are affected by this problem, with no other Australian trucks currently being included in the recall. A seemingly similar, but unrelated, recall listing Penske Australia has advised that seven local Western Star Constellation models are also affected with a steering box issue.

Hubbed receives massive ABGF investment The logistics group has scored a big win from the Australian fund Australian-based logistics and last mile delivery business Hubbed has secured a $12 million investment from the Australian Business Growth Fund (ABGF) for 2022. The ABGF provides growth capital to Australian businesses, with Hubbed receiving the investment that incorporates a 30 per cent voting interest for the fund. The ABGF invested in Hubbed for its innovative pick-up drop-off (PUDO) model that allows further choice for carriers, retailers and consumers through an alternative delivery service. Hubbed says it allows consumers to choose when and where they receive parcels, giving them flexible options to pay for items and have them delivered or returned in an environmentally friendly manner. The model allows consumers the option to receive delivers from designated collection points across 2,150 locations nationally including outlets at 7-Eleven stores, BP service stations, National Storage and more. Companies like Toll, UPS, DHL, eBay and FedEx all currently use Hubbed to strengthen their delivery capabilities. ABGF CEO Anthony Healy says

The ABGF invested in Hubbed for its innovative pick-up drop-off model

the fund was excited to continue supporting companies like Hubbed. “Since launching we have been able to provide capital opportunities for businesses like Hubbed who have strong potential for growth and an innovative strategy that shows a clear point of difference in the market,” Healy says. Hubbed founder and CEO David McLean says the fund is a reward for the company’s work in the PUDO collection scheme. “Partnering with ABGF has been a completely different experience to other financial organisations I’ve encountered,” McLean says. “ABGF’s people, values and culture sealed the deal for me. I know they are as invested in our long-term success as we are.” The ABGF investment allows Hubbed to scale up collection points to 3,000 nationwide and expand the collection services available to customers and partners. The investment will also be used to accelerate new last-mile service offerings as well as give access to a board of engaged advisors.

News Some operators will be able to claim back toll costs

NSW toll rebate Some operators will be able to claim back toll costs The New South Wales government has announced that around half a million road users will be eligible for rebates on their toll bills as the state grapples with its toll road costs. In the state government’s 2022– 2023 budget, it has pledged to commit $520 million over the next two years for quarterly rebates for drivers who spend at least $375 a year on using toll roads in NSW. The new commitment is set to benefit motorists and operators using roads in Western Sydney the most, as the expansive toll network in the area should be slightly relieved by the ability for drivers to get up to $750 back.

The state government says the new program will come into effect from July 1 as it replaces the current halfprice registration scheme to offset rising toll road costs. NSW treasurer Matt Kean says the budget cost is worthwhile to appease the state’s freight operators and transport companies, while premier Dominic Perrottet says it also addresses the increasing cost of living. “We know many families across our state have been doing it tough,” Perrottet says. “We’re using the NSW budget to help family budgets right across our state.”

NatRoad hit out after the announcement, saying that the NSW government is disregarding a large part of the transport industry and will just lead to higher taxes for households. “Making rebates available to some owners of two light commercial vehicles but not operators of larger trucks is farcical, and the cost will inevitably flow through to supermarket and pharmacy checkouts,” says NatRoad chairman Scott Davidson. “The vast majority of truck operators are small business people and they are already buckling under the pressure of losing their fuel tax credit in the last federal budget.” “We proposed variable toll rates for off-peak journeys or discounts for multiple journeys to keep trucks off suburban streets, improve environmental outcomes and make travel less congested and safer. “There are reasonable and constructive ideas that the NSW government and its monopoly toll roads partner Transurban have chosen to ignore.”

The NSW government is now allowing longer trucks to use the Kamilaroi Highway

Freight boost for Kamilaroi Hwy The state government is allowing longer trucks to use the common freight route The New South Wales government is ensuring more productive heavy vehicles will be able to drive along one of the state’s key freight routes on the Kamilaroi Highway. The government says transport operators could be saved an hour when travelling along the highway as it is now open to 30-metre performance-based standard (PBS) level 2B vehicles. NSW regional transport and roads minister Sam Farraway says this new

allowance will allow for the transport industry to better connect to some of the state’s most productive agricultural land as well as key markets. “Up until now, two rail level crossings at Werris Creek and Curlewis prohibited access to 26 to 30-metrelong heavy vehicles along this route, adding 50 kilometres to the journey,” Farraway says. “These two rail level crossings were the only thing standing in the way of end-

to-end access for safer, more efficient and sustainable heavy vehicles.” Farraway says allowing these longer heavy vehicles on the highway without compromising safety will be good for everyone, as this PBS scheme allows Australia’s heavy vehicle industry to match the right vehicles to the required tasks. “It’s an opportunity to innovate with vehicle design and road management to greatly enhance productivity and improve safety performance while minimising impacts on the environment and road infrastructure,” Farraway says. Along with safety and productivity, the NSW government says there are more long-term benefits to this new assessment PBS method for assessing rail level crossings. These include significant savings when applied more broadly to assess the need to upgrade existing rail level crossings.

Australia weighs up Euro 6 NatRoad says changing the engine requirement should be accompanied by an incentive Australia is considering enforcing a change in heavy vehicle engine emission regulation from Euro 5 to Euro 6 engines as the main standard. The current Australian heavy vehicle engine emission regulation adopts Euro 5 as the main standard and permits the approved equivalent standards from Japan or the USA to demonstrate compliance. The second revision of the relevant Australian Design Rule (ADR) that enforces new trucks to the more stringent Euro 6 is yet to be certified and remains under consideration. The federal department of infrastructure and transport recently liaised with the National Road Transport Association (NatRoad) when preparing a brief for the incoming federal government on mandating Euro 6 for all new trucks. Members have given NatRoad feedback that the government should offer a rebate for purchasing a Euro 6 truck, linked to greater fuel tax credits once they’re restored. This rebate could be applied to offset the higher fuel costs for heavy vehicle operators linked to the increased weight for Euro 6 technology. NatRoad has also strongly recommended to government that the introduction of mandates should maintain the productivity of vehicles and improve the incentives for heavy vehicle

The TWU wants an independent transport tribunal NatRoad says more planning must be done before standards shift to Euro 6

operators to use Euro 6 vehicles, for example by increasing steer axle mass limits and increasing vehicle width and length for these models. This would make Euro 6 vehicles more competitive, compared to a Euro 5 or earlier, rather than less competitive (given their generally reduced payload). The applicability dates for mandating Euro 6 have not yet been determined but NatRoad says it will likely be part of an early decision of the new federal government. The mass increase needed to offset the productivity impact of the proposed ADR is being looked at by the National Transport Commission. NatRoad has communicated to the department that it is essential that the mass increase come into force before a proposed Euro 6 mandatory ADR is introduced. The association says all technical issues should be resolved as soon as possible, given the long lead time on delivery of new trucks. NatRoad wants all government agencies to co-ordinate work on the technical issues associated with the introduction of any concessions, particularly a floating 500kg mass concession for steer and 1,000kg for twin steer Euro 6-compliant heavy vehicles.

TWU calls for independent transport tribunal The transport union wants the new government to implement an independent industry tribunal In the wake of rising fuel prices and the removal of the fuel tax credit, the Transport Workers’ Union (TWU) is calling for the establishment of an independent transport tribunal. The TWU says the industry needs to act after the former federal government slashed the fuel excise in half for all motorists but removed the rebate system, meaning truckies only have a four cents per litre fuel reduction. The TWU says the decision to remove the fuel tax credit was “a slap in the face” for the transport industry and is calling for members to band together and establish its own independent tribunal. “Decades of research demonstrates the link between sustainable operating costs and income as well as truckie safety,” the TWU says. “When truckies’ thin margins are smashed by rising operating costs, the pressure is on to speed, drive fatigued, overload and cut back on truck maintenance to make ends meet.” The TWU says truckies need support now and is urging the new federal government to implement an independent body with the power to set enforceable standards such as effective cost recovery for truck drivers.

RA crowned Louise McCormick as the 2022 John Shaw Medal winner

Queensland group suggests road safety change A new group wants to expand road crash data used for road safety planning A Queensland scale-up group is calling for the national road toll to change from historic methods and now consider including the number of lives negatively impacted by conflicts on the road. Advanced Mobility Analytics Group (AMAG) wants the crash data that is relied upon to manage risks on the road to include more powerful and proactive methods enabled by modern technology. Currently the national road toll states the number of lives lost on roads each year, but AMAG says this number underestimates the lives negatively impacted from serious and moderate injuries that sometimes result in lifelong impairment. This information from crashes is usually used to inform engineering and investment decisions to reduce transport system crashes. “Waiting for crashes to occur as a means of identifying risky locations is critically flawed, as we must unfortunately rely on crashes today in order to prevent crashes tomorrow,” AMAG CEO Simon Washington says. “It is an ethical dilemma that has plagued crash-based methods for decades.” Washington says technological advancements made in the past 20 years has resulted in critical conflicts, rather than conflicts, the ideal metric for managing transport network safety. The group says carefully

The group says critical conflicts are a superior method for assessing transport system risks

measured critical conflicts are a superior method for assessing transport system risks because they serve as precursors to crashes, happen more frequently than crashes and can be measured more accurately than crashes. According to AMAG, observing critical conflicts gives engineers the chance to improve sites before crashes can accumulate, removing the need to wait for crashes to happen to observe collision data. AMAG points to the World Health Organisation’s statistics that many countries have stemmed their annual road toll through using new ways to measure collision data. Another possible solution AMAG wants to see implemented in Australia is video analytics solutions. The group warns it won’t solely solve road collision issues, but in conjunction with other tactics it can help stem the road statistics currently being measured. “There is no silver bullet in road safety and video analytics alone will not solve all of the problems on our roads,” Washington says. “It is however one of the most important technologies we need to adopt now to shun a reliance on road users getting killed and injured before investments and corrective actions can be taken.”

McCormick was announced as the winner at the 2022 John Shaw dinner, which recognised 70 years since the foundation of the RA’s forerunner the Australian Road Federation. “As the Northern Territory’s infrastructure commissioner, her leadership benefits the entire community and economy, making the area safer, more accessible and better able to do business.” McCormick has worked with industry and peak bodies including the Aboriginal Land Councils and Traditional Owners to push transport agendas through in a respectful way. As general manager of transport and civil services in the NT government, RA says McCormick was responsible for 22,000 kilometres of roads. RA says McCormick helped implement a new rolling upgrade program for strategic transport corridors over longer periods of time that improved the accessibility and affordability of works to create certainty around the project pipeline. RA says this move allowed the industry to provide more sustainable jobs while training and employing mor Indigenous Australian people from remote communities. McCormick is also the deputy chair of the Austroads Board and a member of the Australian Road Research Board.

Executive appointments

Thomas Knudsen

Toll Group names replacement chairman The logistics group has named its new chairman to replace John Mullen Logistics company Toll Group has announced its new chairman after John Mullen decided to retire from the Toll board at the end of June. Current Toll managing director Thomas Knudsen has replaced Mullen as the new chairman, with president of global forwarding Alan Beacham to succeed Knudsen as managing director. Mullen says the time is right for a new leadership team to guide Toll forward in its next phase of growth. “With Toll’s performance firmly on the right track, a new strategy well underway and a strong leadership team, now is an appropriate time to hand over to the next chair to guide Toll to the next level of its growth,” Mullen says. “It has been an honour to serve as chairman through a time when Toll has successfully overcome so many complex challenges to continue its vital role in delivering for the community.” Mullen will continue to advise the Toll board as a senior advisor and help the group surge into its next phase of growth. “Knudsen and Beacham are the right people to lead the Toll Group into the future,” Mullen says. The appointments will take effect from July 1 onwards.

HVIA welcomes new directors The two new HVIA directors will commence immediately on the board The Heavy Vehicle Industry Australia (HVIA) has appointed two new directors onto its board of management. Penske’s Craig Lee and leading engineering consultant Robert Smedley will fill the vacancies on the board. HVIA president John Drake says the addition of Lee and Smedley will continue to strengthen the HVIA. “Craig and Robert are two very impressive leaders from different parts of our industry,” Drake says. “Both bring enormous experience to our board that will further enhance our strategic management and governance capabilities.” Drake says the appointments show the board wants to remain representative of its diverse membership while also making exciting plans for a national approach to heavy vehicle regulation. But he says they will have to adjust quickly to cope with the unique issues that the transport industry presents. “The industry is faced with a complex range of challenges, from the supply chain to skills shortages, from our journey towards zero emissions to rising energy costs and ranging to inflation that impacts every business and household,” Drake says. “Bringing leaders of this calibre to the table further enhances our ability to put the right strategies in place to help our members across their business operation.”

Smedley (left) and Lee (right) have become the HVIA’s two newest directors

Drake also says the appointments ensure that the HVIA’s engagement with members stays in line with current issues the industry faces. Smedley is managing director of Smedley’s Engineers and has been prominent in contributing to the industry’s policy forums on safety and productivity problems. “HVIA is an important industry stakeholder and I have been impressed by the organisation’s representation of its members in recent years,” Smedley says. “As a director, I see my role as ensuring that the organisation is using its resources most effectively to take on those challenge and to provide strategic advice to ensure its efforts achieve the necessary outcomes.” Penske’s Lee says truck importers and manufacturers are about to implement the most fundamental shifts in heavy vehicle automotive technology ever seen. Lee says: “The next 10 to 15 years are going to change the trucking landscape in a way that has never happened before. “There are major changes occurring across the fleet in how technology is applied to improve fleet performance for greatly improved safety outcomes and to improve our environmental impact.”

NatRoad says the industry should look for ways to be more sustainable

Aussies want transport to become greener A NatRoad survey finds many citizens want to see greater sustainability The National Road Transport Association (NatRoad) says Australians are divided when it comes to whether road freight is environmentally friendly. New research from NatRoad was conducted by independent consultants StollzNow Research and surveyed an online panel of 1,000 people aged 18 and above. The results found that 60 per cent of Australians agree that road freight isn’t environmentally friendly while the other 40 per cent say the opposite. The data says 68 per cent of Australians would make a trade-off to improve the environment such as waiting longer for goods, accepting less variety or paying more. Metropolitan residents are also more likely to accept trade-offs than regional residents. “This is important research that shows the road freight industry needs to take the lead and speak out about ways we are, or can be, sustainable,” NatRoad chairman Scott Davidson says. “Road freight is not a high concern for the environment in the minds of most people but that doesn’t mean there’s no issue for our industry.” Davidson says pollution, food wastage, climate change and landfill were all viewed as higher environmental concerns in the study, but road freight is still a crucial cog to lowering emissions. “We all know that our industry will embrace lower emissions if governments put the appropriate regulations, price signals and market priming mechanisms in place,” Davidson says. “What this shows is that as an industry we should not be backwards in coming forwards to participate in sustainability discussions.” The NatRoad research also found that 58 per cent of Australians are aware of restrictions in place to prevent trucks delivering at night and early morning in cities and towns. Roughly 59 per cent of them say they will support the removal of these curfews if they improve the delivery of goods.

Truck driver course continued for released prisoners The WA program has gone for nearly a decade and continues to benefit the industry The Western Australian government is continuing its partnership with the Department of Justice to train released prisoners in truck driver courses for long-term jobs. The WA government says the current program with the private sector has seen former prisoners receive lasting jobs in the mining industry after completing training courses to operate heavy duty haul trucks. The government is currently partnered with mining company Alcoa and earth moving contractor Piacentini and Son to offer roles at Karnet Prison Farm that help prisoners successfully return to the community. In the existing nine years of the partnership, nine of the 11 released prisoners who have completed the training have been taken on by Piacentini and Son, with four still working at Alcoa’s Huntly bauxite mine near Jarrahdale. The course runs over six to eight weeks at the mine, with pre-Covid courses being run three times per year. “The traineeships have become highly sought after and the prisoners work hard to prove

Former prisoners have been trained in truck driving

they are ready when it’s time for recruitment,” Karnet acting assistant superintendent Peter Vose says. Former prisoners have said they found early starts and late finishes good to prepare for the workforce. “From the moment I started the traineeship, all employees and management made me feel very welcome and comfortable,” a former prisoner says. “The fact that I was employed after release, which was no guarantee, made it all worthwhile. I now have a new career that brings stability and job security moving forward.” The WA government says minimum-security prisoners serving the last six months of their sentence are open to apply for the traineeship if they are approved for unsupervised activities outside the prison. Prisoners must hold a valid driver’s licence and have no previous experience with heavyduty trucks, as the training allows for the trainees to apply for an industry recognised certificate.

Newell sees first solar-powered generator A remarkable piece of technology is cutting costs on the NSW freight route works A mobile solar-powered generator is the new secret weapon that’s cutting costs for taxpayers and reducing the environmental impact from work being carried out along the Newell Highway. Regional transport and roads minister Sam Farraway says the solar generator was being put to use for the first time by crews building new overtaking lanes on the $1.7 billion upgrade to the Newell Highway. “It will help offset emissions by saving about 615,000 kilograms of carbon and will save taxpayers more than $100,000 over the life of the project,” Farraway says. “In its first two weeks of operation on the Newell Highway project it saved more than 2,800kg of CO2 emissions – the equivalent of charging 44,000 smartphones.” Farraway says the NSW government is continuing to use this mobile solar-powered generator to fuel the Newell Highway upgrade

to make daily life better. The solar generator is ideal for work along the Newell as it is housed in a secure 20-foot shipping container and can be packed up within 30 minutes, put on the back of a truck and be easily moved from project to project. The NSW government says the generator is much quieter than a normal generator and there are fewer emissions, creating a better working environment. “With the amount of work going on around regional NSW it’s vital as a government we look to new ways to deliver projects that saves money that can be reinvested into community assets and makes conditions more comfortable for workers,” Farraway says. “The generator also collects and provides data that will help inform power consumption patterns for ongoing improvement, which could result in more potential savings. “What’s more, this generator

A solar-powered generator is being used on the Newell upgrade

is made by an Australian-owned company in BlackStump.” BlackStump executive chairman Peter Galvin says it was the first time the technology had been used on a major road project. “We believe this is the start of a movement that will over time see solar-powered generators replace diesel generators on infrastructure sites both throughout Australia and the rest of the world,” Galvin says. “Quite simply, it is superior technology that never breaks down, it solves the carbon emission issue and it’s half the cost – what’s not to like?” The federal and NSW governments are jointly funding a $1.7 billion upgrade of the Newell Highway, with the federal government contributing $60 million to build new overtaking lanes and the NSW government contributing $168 million.

News The groups want to see transport companies combine to lower emissions

Decarbonising the transport sector Three freight bodies have issued guidelines to lower the industry’s carbon emissions The Australasian Railway Association (ARA), in conjunction with the Infrastructure Sustainability Council (ISC) and Roads Australia (RA), has combined for the Journey to Net Zero report that offers ways of removing carbon emissions from freight operators and the transport industry as a whole. KPMG and Arup authored and sponsored the report respectively, as it has 46 recommendations that will help accelerate decarbonising the industry while analysing examples of how to best implement these ideas. The recommendations include a national strategic approach to the transport and infrastructure sector, investment in initiatives for an

efficient and sustainable system at both state and federal levels as well as embedding accountability in the planning and construction of these sustainable transport projects. Other key features handed down include enabling capacity building and education along with a culture of collaboration in procurement and using leverage technology to optimise designs to assist with the transition to a low-carbon industry. A fundamental principle underlying the report’s suggestions is collaboration, as the trio of groups want to see transport companies combine to lower emissions. “Governments can make significant impact through

policies and as major transport infrastructure and service providers,” Arup Australasia co-chair Kerryn Coker says. “We see this report as a catalyst for more sustainable public and private transport ecosystems with enduring social benefits.” Decreasing a reliance on motor vehicles is another primary suggestion made, as the report says placemaking is the first step needed to provide a sustainable transport network. If the government and freight bodies in the industry work together from the start to provide a state and national approach, the report says the sector can be decarbonised quickly and properly. “We need to adopt and promote innovative technology solutions that optimise design, construction and operation so that solutions can be deployed,” the report says. “Government and industry need to work together from the onset – at the business case and investment decision stage.”

The federal government is helping fund upgrades to the NT’s Carpentaria Highway

Government awards Carpentaria Highway contract The new federal government has chosen who will upgrade the vital NT freight route The federal and Northern Territory governments are delivering a major upgrade to various sections along the 138km Carpentaria Highway and have announced the contract recipient for the works. A design and construct tender has been awarded to Exact Contracting for $67 million for stage one upgrades. The $150 million program of work is jointly funded on an 80:20 basis and will be delivered in two separate stages over two years. Stage one will include the first 48km of the Carpentaria Highway and is expected

to be completed by April 2023. Stage two will see upgrades from chainage 50km to chainage 140km. Upgrades will include creating a twolane sealed road with a raised formation to improve flood immunity and constructing culverts to improve cross drainage where required. The upgrades to the Carpentaria Highway complement multiple strategic projects currently underway that aim to bring the Territory’s vision to become a world-class gas production, manufacturing and services hub to reality.

New federal minister for transport Catherine King says recent times have proven the importance of maintaining key freight routes to counter weather events. “These upgrades will include creating a two-lane sealed road with a raised formation to improve flood immunity and constructing culverts to improve cross drainage where required,” King says. “We know how important good roads are to the NT. That’s why we are investing in key freight roads and access roads for remote communities across the Territory.” NT infrastructure minister Eva Lawler says: “Upgrading Carpentaria Highway will involve sealing, widening and elevating the road alignment to increase flood immunity, meaning this important route will have improved accessibility throughout the year while also allowing more access to health services and economic opportunities.”

NSW has named the members of the new freight transport advisory council

Improve facilities or face tax Transport climate group launched The WA transport group now wants more to join and focus on protecting the environment Western Roads Federation (WRF) is launching its Western Australian transport industry climate action working group and is seeking interest to develop constructive proposals to make the industry more sustainable. WRF says it wants interested parties to help develop action ideas that the group can then take to state and federal government as a way of moving its focus towards the transport industry. With transport being the second largest generator of emissions after the energy sector, the WRF says climate action presents opportunities and risks for the industry, meaning proactive leadership is needed to aid positive outcomes. Considerations listed in the WRF’s proposal as part of the climate action working group include: • Diesel and AdBlue security – reducing reliance on imported fuel and finding a solution for on-shore AdBlue manufacturing • Alternative energy trucks – negating the current two-year wait for new trucks by clearing the backlog • Conversion technology – building on the WA government’s investment in rail carriages by using emerging solutions like battery or electric technology

The WA group wants to discuss transitioning to sustainable methods

• Infrastructure – investing in alternative fuel networks plus skills development for repair and maintenance • Productivity – ensure trucks don’t get held up waiting or in traffic, as it adds greenhouse gas emissions for every litre of diesel used The WRF says identifying and removing these points of delay in the supply chain can massively improve productivity in the industry, meaning there’s less emissions. The WRF also wants to see the state’s industry get ahead of a ‘lead or get taxed’ system where more financial penalties may be incurred by not focusing on sustainable transport early. While there are still incentives in place to transition the sector, the WRF is leading the action working group to instil a culture change and remove diesel from the industry and focus on climate change. Interested parties can participate in the group by contacting WRF CEO Cam Dumesny at Cam.Dumesny@ westernroads.com.au.

UK government gives industry a two-year deadline A cross-party group of English MPs have told members of the nation’s freight sector to improve overnight facilities for drivers and provide new training routes or face new taxes. Previously the road haulage industry told ministers to give them a two-year deadline to upgrade facilities for truck drivers including better food, showers and spaces for female drivers. But, recently, the cross-party group called for the UK logistics and freight sector to improve its standards or face the introduction of a new tax. The call comes as the industry struggles with a lack of heavy goods vehicle drivers leading to regular fuel shortages at petrol stations and supermarket shortages. Last year the Road Haulage Association said there was a shortfall of around 100,000 heavy vehicle drivers due to the Covid-19 pandemic, with the shortage now predicted to have fallen to 65,000 drivers. Now the transport select committee in the Commons says if changes aren’t made within two years then parts of the industry will face a new tax under a proposed supply chain levy that would go towards new facilities for heavy vehicle drivers. “We urge the government to force the sector to get its house in order,” conservative chairman of the committee Huw Merriman says. “If the industry don’t deliver change, government should do so and send them the bill through increased taxes to those who produce, sell and make the most profits.” The committee’s road freight supply chain report found that a lack of highquality rest facilities is a main reason behind a driver shortage. The committee wants to see more done to encourage women and younger drivers to join the workforce. “Lack of diversity is holding expansion in the workforce back,” Merriman says.

The eWorX electrified power take-off system has been fitted to MB’s latest range of electric trucks

MB Trucks partners to equip electric trucks The two brands will combine to continue electrifying MB’s newest trucks Mercedes-Benz trucks says it is partnering with ZF Services to equip its latest range of electric trucks with an eWorX electrified power take-off system. ZF says the eWorX all-in-one solution offers vehicle body manufacturers a mechanical interface to help drive work equipment. MB says the two companies are also collaborating with leading crane producer Palfinger to equip MercedesBenz eActros demonstration trucks with skip loaders to combine industries into its latest product range. ZF has also applied eWorX to eActros that include hook loaders from global tipping trailer leader Meiller. These demonstration vehicles were displayed at Munich’s IFAT 2022 global trade fair on May 30. ZF says its eWorX is a modular intelligent system combining all functions required for the electrification of on-board equipment in a single compact unit. The eWorX provides a handy step into electric transformation of heavy vehicles, delivering zero local emissions and significantly reducing noise levels for residential or city operations. The eWorX system features an electric motor with nominal power of 50kW, an inverter and a control unit with applicationspecific software such as a cooling system and hydraulic pump. MB says the eWorX acts as a gateway between the vehicle and its on-board equipment and is able to communicate to a vehicle’s CAN bus.

New electric Freightliner eCascadia Freightliner has released its latest battery electric truck model Daimler Truck subsidiary Freightliner unveiled the new Freightliner eCascadia at California’s ACT Expo in May. The new battery electric truck provides customers with a zeroemission version of the Cascadia and debuts its new safety and connectivity features. Rigorous testing has led to the release of the new eCascadia that Freightliner says has a typical battery range of 230 miles (402km) and is ideal for short-haul routes. The new truck model is powered by the in-house Detroit ePowertrain, which purposely designed the transmission to fully integrate with the eCascadia for maximum power, increased driver dynamics and driver comfort with zero emissions. The Detroit ePowertrain offers three battery options for a range of sizes, with battery charging times ranging from one-and-a-half hours to six hours. An in-house Charger Management System (CMS) is included in the new line of eCascadias to ensure the zeroemissions truck runs smoothly and maximises its battery life.

Freightliner eCascadia

It also comes with battery health monitoring to give visibility into the percentage, remaining range distance and charging status so operators can accurately plan trips accordingly. The new Freightliner eCascadia also comes with a suite of safety systems designed for electric trucks, including the debut of a new Detroit safety feature in active side guard assist. The new feature engages at urban speeds to ensure the truck can’t make a right turn when a moving cyclist or pedestrian is detected on the passenger side of the truck, while it will be paired with active lane assist. To provide a seamless transition to electric trucks, the eCascadia also comes with Detroit eConsulting and eFill chargers to provide an array of commercial options for customers. With its new grille designs and driver comfort features, Freightliner says the latest range of eCascadias will enhance productivity.

News The automated truck’s sensors identified obstacles scattered along the route

MAN launches ANITA project The truck manufacturer has conducted its first public test of its new autonomous vehicle project MAN is currently testing a new ANITA (Autonomous Innovation in Terminal Operations) project designed to automate container handling between truck and rail. The truck manufacturing company conducted a mid-term review on the MAN test track for the project. MAN put green test truck Bertha forward and observed how it worked as an autonomous truck designed to automate container handling processes. In difficult conditions, MAN

says the automated truck’s sensors identified obstacles scattered along the route while also recognising and ignoring reflections on the wet road. The test went smoothly, with the safety driver in the cockpit not having to intervene and prevent the automated truck from encountering a collision. This first public drive of the autonomous truck formed part of MAN’s mid-term review of the ANITA automation project that

MAN is working on in conjunction with a German university of applied sciences. Now, MAN wants to see the project take the next step towards automated hub-to-hub transport. MAN executive board member for research and development Dr Frederik Zohm says the group have had to add sensory organs to the automated truck. “The basic automation technology for ANITA is ready,” Zohm says. “For fine-tuning, we are now going into direct comparison in practice to further develop the system.” MAN says ANITA will first enter its second half, including further training at terminals and depots, along with more test runs. MAN says the test runs will last a year to gather further data and experience while developing the autonomous prototype.

Volvo invests in zero-emissions Volvo has explained how it will tackle a sustainable truck future Volvo Trucks says it is placing bets on batteries, hydrogen fuel cells and combustion engines to be the future of a carbon-free transport industry. The popular truck manufacturer says it won’t invest in just one type of zero-emission technology as it prepares for an open-ended future. “We are going in parallel with three technologies,” Volvo chief technology officer Lars Stenqvist says. Although Stenqvist previously said battery electrics are the company’s choice for buses, excavators and reloaders, the market-leader in heavy all-electric trucks in Europe last year isn’t going down just one track for its heavy-vehicle fleets. Volvo says it will also build a charging network as part of its allelectric investment into batterypowered heavy-duty vehicles. Stenqvist says he’s not worried about the different dynamics in fuel cell technology, instead saying Volvo can achieve this technology at a low cost going forward.

Volvo is investing in several routes to prepare for a zero-emission future

“We believe we will get low-cost green hydrogen,” he says. “It’s because other industries will be very dependent on green hydrogen.” Stenqvist says Volvo will “piggyback on the big investments” made globally on hydrogen technology to bolster its zeroemission truck fleets. Volvo will continue working with Daimler Trucks on fuel-cell development in a joint venture called ‘cellcentric’ that will supply both

companies from 2025 onwards. While the winning technology is yet to be found, Stenqvist wants to keep all options open for Volvo. “When I talk to my engineers, I talk about it as a beauty contest,” he says. “Three teams in parallel are competing with each other. “My belief is that the type of drivetrain will be dependent on the infrastructure in different regions and the price of energy there.”

Volvo trucks using fossil-free steel New steel tech reduces environmental impact Volvo is now introducing fossilfree steel in its trucks – the first manufacturer in the world to do so. The steel is produced by the Swedish steel company SSAB and the heavy-duty electric Volvo trucks will be the first to include it. The steel from SSAB is produced using a completely new technology, based on hydrogen. The result is a much lower climate impact than conventionally produced steel. Small scale introduction of the steel in Volvo’s heavy electric trucks will begin in the third quarter of 2022. “We will increase the use of fossilfree materials in all our trucks to make them net-zero not only in operation – but also when it comes to the materials they are built of,” says Jessica Sandström, senior vice president product management, Volvo Trucks. The first steel produced with hydrogen will be used in the truck’s frame rails, the backbone of the truck upon which all other main components are mounted. As the availability of fossil-free steel increases, it will also be introduced in other parts of the truck. Today, around 30 per cent of the materials in a new Volvo truck come from recycled materials and up to 90

per cent of the truck can be recycled at the end of its life. “We are continuously striving to further minimise our climate footprint. We are also moving towards greater circularity in both our operations and our trucks,” says Sandström. Volvo Group has been collaborating with SSAB on fossil-free steel since 2021. The first machine, a load carrier made of fossil-free steel, was showcased in October 2021.

SSAB is producing fossil-free steel using hydrogen technology

Fossil-free steel will be an important complement to the traditional and recycled steel used in Volvo’s trucks. Volvo Trucks is committed to the Paris agreement and to achieving netzero greenhouse gas emissions in the value-chain by 2040, at the latest. Small-scale use of the steel will occur later this year

Scania is set to roll out new battery electric truck fleets

Scania introduces long-haul electric trucks The truck manufacturer is changing the game when it comes to regional long-haul operations Scania is introducing a regional longhaul range of electric trucks as part of a new generation that will be available with R or S sleeper cabs and forms part of a complete solution that allows more customers to access the electrified transport sector. Scania has introduced 624kWh of battery to majorly change electric trucks and how they function and operate in regional long-haul operations. “This introduction represents a major milestone for us and our partners,” Scania CEO Christian Levin says. “We are now increasing our range in every dimension by offering new opportunities for a vast selection of customers and the whole transport ecosystem. These tracks are part of solutions that contain all the capabilities that a transport industry longing for electrification is asking for.” Scania says its new battery electric truck generation is based on Scania’s cornerstones in modularity, sustainability and an operating economy to match conventional trucks. With the new Scania trucks, customers will be able to operate rigids or tractorand-trailer combinations such as temperature-controlled food transports. “Scania has now reached a favourable maturity regarding our electrified offer,” Scania senior vice president Fredrik Allard says. “With this major addition to our existing hybrids and battery electric trucks for urban distribution we introduced in 2020, we can now offer a sustainable and multi-faceted portfolio of zero-emission solutions for our customers.”

In 2021, the first S-Way models arrived in Australia to begin comprehensive local testing and validations that were overseen by Iveco engineering staff ahead of the model’s fourth quarter launch. The S-Way has already won several international industry awards for design, making it a highly anticipated release in Australia and New Zealand. The local validation program includes having the S-Way run in single and D-double trailer combinations as well as in rigid setup while covering several hundred thousand kilometres fully loaded and in real-world operating conditions like summer temperatures. Iveco also closely evaluated the collective load measurement of its S-Way model along with milage accumulation and full cooling system evaluations to ensure the models are ready to perform in Australian conditions. Along with the drive performance focus, Iveco also observed how the suspension and braking worked while evaluating new technology

features like GPS predictive drive capabilities. The testing program also incorporates several exercises to evaluate fit and finish including door seal and noise reduction performance while evaluating Iveco genuine accessories. Iveco Australia senior engineer David Dunlop says the S-Way says the trials will continue despite its initial success. “Testing undertaken to date has seen the S-Way evaluation vehicles perform extremely well,” Dunlop says. “We’re focused on ensuring the new models arrive tailored specifically to meet our demanding Australian operating conditions and applications for long distances, high speed, loads and temperatures, making them a valuable addition to fleets. “Having now spent a number of months in and around the S-Way, I know that future customers will be pleased with this next generation of heavy-duty trucks from Iveco.”

News MAN’s TGS tipper won the ‘Tipper up to 32t’ category

MAN wins four categories at ETM Awards MAN took awards for its TGS tipper, Lion’s bus products and eTGE electric van MAN’s TGS tipper was recently named the winner of the category ‘Tipper up to 32t’ at the ETM (EuroTransportMedia) Awards, which took place at the Future Congress for Commercial Vehicles 2022 in Berlin on June 1. The MAN TGS range covers a range of options for medium and long-haul work, ranging from B-double and prime movers to fridge vans and service trucks. The company says its tipperspec TGS truck is a strong all-rounder

for construction and quarry sites, both local and interstate, and has been designed for optimum payload, safety, versatility, performance and efficiency. Support is provided to the driver via systems such as Congestion Assistant, which in traffic jams brakes behind vehicles and automatically moves off again, and the Stop&Go The eTGE electric van won best van (left), while the Lion Intercity LE model won the intercity bus category

function of the distance-controlled cruise control ACC. The innovative digital mirror replacement system MAN OptiView brings more safety to the road, MAN adds, supporting the driver during critical driving manoeuvres such as manoeuvring, turning and changing lanes by providing extended views and an optimum overview of the traffic situation. In addition to the usual fields of vision, the digital mirror replacement system shows views specially adapted for different driving situations (e.g. turning, manoeuvring, motorway driving). The mode of operation and display concept of the MAN OptiView are thus optimally tailored to the needs of natural human perception and enable the driver to quickly visually grasp traffic events and the vehicle environment, to reliably assess them and thus to cope with them safely. EasyControl was developed to avoid unnecessary entry and exit into the cab. There are four control panels in the driver’s door that can be conveniently reached from the outside. Depending on the version, they are preassigned with the most important functions or some can be individually assigned. “The ETM Awar d plays a very important role for the MAN sales and customer solutions team,” says Friedrich Baumann, MAN executive board member responsible for sales and customer solutions. “Every year the best commercial vehicles and brands are honoured here by the votes of the readers of the magazines trans aktuell, lastauto omnibus and Fernfahrer. To regularly win over more than 200 competitors in the categories Best Van, Best Truck and Best Bus fills us with great pride and motivates us to continue to perform at our best in the future.” In addition to winning the tipper up to 32t category, MAN’s Lion’s Intercity LE model won the intercity bus category, while its Lion’s Coach won the high-deck coach category and its eTGE electric van won the electric transporter category for the fourth year in a row.

News The companies say that autonomous trucking leads to safer work environments

Autonomous retrofitting of construction trucks SafeAI has been working with Siemens to create an autonomous, zero emission heavy vehicle fleet for Japanese construction company Obayashi Corporation SafeAI and Siemens signed an agreement in May 2021 to jointly work on retrofitting off-road heavy vehicles for autonomy, zero emission and connected applications. SafeAI brings its scalable AI-powered retrofit autonomy to the collaboration, while Siemens provides its hardware and software capabilities in zero emission powertrains, and the necessary infrastructure to operate these vehicles. Earlier this year, a fleet of construction trucks, ranging from 45 to 65 tons (40.8 to 59 tonnes) and operated by Obayashi Corporation, was identified to be retrofitted for autonomy and zero emission. In May, the companies began retrofitting the first 45-ton vehicle, which is expected to be ready by the end of 2022. The collaboration will continue scaling across the entire fleet over a threeyear period. Unlike passenger cars, full electrification of heavy vehicles is still at a nascent stage. However, with improving maturity of technology, total cost of ownership, government incentives and regulations, there will be over four million zero emission heavy vehicles deployed by 2030. Beyond the zero emission benefit, electric vehicles also offer improved performance, negligible maintenance costs and longer uptime and life, improving productivity and reliability while lowering costs.

For this project, it is estimated that the total cost of ownership for the retrofitted electric vehicle will be 15–30 per cent less than that of the original internal combustion engine vehicle. “Heavy vehicle retrofit for autonomy and zero emission is an innovative yet cost-effective solution that will fast track adoption of sustainable technologies for heavy vehicles,” says Siemens Commercial Vehicles head of strategy, business development and marketing Zubin Sarkar. “Not to forget, retrofit is a form of reuse or recycle and hence in line with circular economy principles to better meet net zero goals. Combined with creative financing models and rigorous focus on safety, there could be as many retrofitted zero emission heavy vehicles as newly-built zero emission heavy vehicles by 2030. “There’s a tremendous opportunity ahead for companies across industries like construction, mining, harbor and agriculture to reduce their carbon footprint, all while improving operations and lowering costs. In partnership with pioneers like SafeAI and Obayashi Corporation, we can imagine a more sustainable future for these industries.” The project also incorporates unique cutting-edge features from

Siemens such as an autonomouspantograph to enable automatic charging and an autonomy analytics suite to ensure a wide array of reliable and safe applications. Simulytic, a new Siemens AG venture, has been established to help accelerate the deployment of autonomous vehicles by offering a platform accessible to regulators, government, insurance, tech developers and operators. “By creating a digital replica of the autonomous vehicle in its deployment environment, we can use our simulation technology to provide independent safety and performance analytics for both SafeAI and Obayashi,” says Simulytics COO Andy Gill. The retrofit project will be engineered by system integrator AVIA Engineering, known for its expertise in electrification and mechatronics of trucks. “We firmly believe the future of the construction industry is both autonomous and electric – and we’re determined to establish that future ourselves,” says Obayashi Silicon Valley Ventures & Laboratory COO Hiroto Sato. “We’ve already started to see the powerful impact autonomous technology can have through our work with SafeAI over the last year. Now, with SafeAI’s partnership with Siemens, we will pioneer more sustainable operations to continue leading the way toward a smarter future for our industry.”

AND BETTER

It’s one thing to have a roomy bunk in the back but entirely another to have a whole campervan. Robyn Newman has taken advantage of the US’ more generous size laws to put everything she needs to live on the road in this extraordinary 5700XE Western Star

llow me to set the scene a little here folks. Sometimes choosing which stories to write is as easy as deciding whether to have the T-bone steak or the petit pois (it involves green peas and poached eggs). Also, sometimes choosing can be as difficult as explaining the logbook rules to a local police officer. On other occasions I just need a little inspiration or guidance.

Robyn Newman and her two loyal travel companions, who love the road as much as she does

The decision to write a story about the spectacular Star you see on these pages before you however came about through my sympathy for our North American counterparts. During my recent trip to the US I was able to experience firsthand the draconian laws that require their drivers to not only work fewer hours than us Australasian truckies, but they also have to survive months on the road in sleeper setups that can barely accommodate a 40inch flatscreen. When driver welfare is a paramount issue, these Americans barely have room for a rowing machine and home gym inside their custom-built sleepers. How could I not write about it? I must share their misery. For the record I had requested my editor print a lot of this story in a ‘sarcastic’ text font, but apparently that’s not yet available. So, let’s carry on with the mordant undertones

of this story and get back to why I rushed to put together the story on this beautiful purple 5700 Western Star featured here. I had recently returned from some relief driving, spending several days living out of a near-new XXL Volvo dragging a road train around North Queensland. When I returned home to the truck’s Brisbane depot, it was around 1am. I preceded to clear out all my gear, from bedding and clothing, to cleaning out the fridge and finishing off with a round of interior housework. You know what I mean, blow the dust out and Armor All the dash, finish it off with an air freshener and the truck’s ready for the regular driver to return. It took me all of maybe 30 to 40 minutes and the truck was empty of my possessions and clean enough to eat your T-bone steak off. It was as I left the depot in my car a sudden wave of sympathy for some of my US friends hit me and I knew what story I had to write. I would shine a light on the harsh conditions they have to face. So, while I may be able to get all packed and cleaned in less time than it takes to find a park at an Eastern Creek truck stop, our poor American compatriots have sleeper cabs that could take hours to clean before they can go home. Yes, I’m well aware their length laws are based on looking after the drivers'

welfare and ensuring they can have a decent bunk as well as a comfortable truck to drive. However, the downside of that is it means that, at the end of a run, they have a lot more housework to do before they can go home. Do you see that problem? Those poor truckers. Cat swinging To highlight these issues, I have chosen to write about Robyn Newman, whom I got to meet while in Louisville, Kentucky, recently. She has a 150-inch (381cm) Bolt custom bunk fitted to her new Detroit-powered 5700XE Western Star. To put that into perspective, swing a cat in the back of a truck over here and all you’ll hear is a constant knocking as the unconscious feline is battered by back walls and front seats. If you swing a cat in the back of Newman’s Western Star, the meowing and whining, mixed in with the echoes created in a 150-inch bunk would sound exactly like I envision a Cardi B concert to be like. Then add in the amount she has to spent on extra

Armor All … those Americans have it tough. Alright, enough sarcasm now. The fact is Newman’s Western Star and Bolt custom bunk is simply massive. All my sardonic comments about the extra time needed at the end of a run to do housework really are moot when it comes to Newman as her ‘runs’ last all year round. In fact, she is lucky if she gets home a couple of times a year. Newman and her two dogs live on the road, hauling all over the US, and her new Western Star is her future retirement truck. “I spend maybe a week or two at home, a couple of times a year,” she admits, referring to her house in Tonopah, Arizona. “After a few days, though, the dogs start heading outside and sitting by the truck, waiting to get going.” The trucking lifestyle has been intrinsically woven into Newman’s DNA for decades now, having begun her driving career back in the 1970s. “I’ve been driving for about 29 years on and off,” she explains. Trucks were not in the family bloodline.

In fact, Newman grew up on a farm and was driving around the property from around seven years of age. By her early 20s she was out on her own and struggling. “I needed something to do to survive, something to pay the bills,” she recalls. So, she purchased a 1968 Marmon from a farmer and started carting his hay. “Back in those days there was no CDL [commercial driver’s licence]. Instead, we started out with a chauffer’s licence and grandfathered into the CDL when it came about,” Newman explains. “It was pretty much all guys back in those days, I didn’t get to meet very many women.” Newman attests to the fact it may have been harder back in the ’70s but the camaraderie of the industry was much stronger. “The boys didn’t like it, a woman in what they saw as a man’s job, but once they learned you can do it and know what you are doing, they accepted you and became like big brothers. “It was better back then, like if you broke

down you would have heaps of people stopping to help you out.” It’s a very similar theme to how many feel about the trucking industry in Australia as well. Allowing easy access to the toolboxes and generator was paramount for Newman and the Bolt designed lift up skirts make it a very easy job

Forensic studies That original Marmon is a long way from the custom Western Star Newman now operates. Those days of reaching through the Marmon’s giant steering wheel to work the twin stick box however did allow Newman to get to where she is now, albeit by a very circuitous route. While she loved the trucking, she choose to save up and head to college. Not business though, or even anything remotely transport related. In fact, she studied forensic science with the goal of getting into forensic pathology. Once she finished, she found

herself influenced more by others’ opinions. Instead of pursuing her work with dead bodies she decided to head back to her love of trucking and travelling, replacing the classroom with the cab. It is worth noting, though, that the studying bug never left her and, to this day, Newman does a lot of online studying while running her truck. Her return to trucking was behind the wheel of a W9 Kenworth. Again, it was her truck that she hauled for a company. The way it works over in the US is that a lot of companies lease trucks to drivers. Theoretically you are an owner-driver, but you run under the leasing company’s ‘authority’. It’s like you are a company driver that runs their own truck. True independent truckers run under their own authority, meaning they have a lot more choice in who they cart for and where they cart to.

By the time Newman had progressed to her third truck, a new Freightliner Cascadia, she had decided to run under her own authority. After putting more than one million miles on the factory-specced Freightliner, Newman decided to replace it. She had already decided she wanted something a bit more to her preferences when it comes to something to live and work in. She purchased a brand-new Western Star day cab and then went and saw the team at Bolt Custom Trucks in Fort Wayne, Indiana. That first Western Star had a wheelbase of 260 inches (660cm) and allowed for an 87inch (221cm) bunk, all custom designed and built by Bolt. “Bonnie Fielding, the sales lady, and AJ, the designer, were absolutely phenomenal,” Newman attests. “I can’t say enough about Bonnie, she’s there the whole way through and AJ is a design wizard.”

That first experience with Bolt ensured that when Newman sold her first Star and set about replacing it in 2022 with the big purple Star you see now, there was no doubt Bolt was going to be her preferred customiser. Dealing with the same team again ensured not just a continuity for Newman, it also meant she knew what she would call the truck. It needed a big name as it would also be the first Western Star 5700XE with a 150inch bunk fitted to it. “I’ve called it BoJax,” she laughs. “People get botoxed, my truck got ‘bojaxed’,” added that the ‘Bo’ is for saleslady Bonnie and the ‘Jax’ is for the incredible designer AJ. The Bolt Custom team got the new Star with just bare bones. The long wheelbase day cab 5700XE was as naked as can be – a blank canvas for Bolt to work on. Being that it was the first-ever 5700XE with an integrated 150-inch sleeper, it was a substantial task for Bolt Custom Trucks. With the arrival of the new Star range soon, though, it also means

Newman ensured her new Western Star would be fitted with the ‘Millennial anti-theft system’, or, in Australian terms, a gearstick and clutch

Newman’s truck will be one of only a few ever put on the road. Bucket list The overall goal of this truck was to be Newman’s “bucket list buggy”. She has worked all her life and the idea of retirement doesn’t appeal. Therefore, it isn’t a retirement truck. “My goal is not to retire, just to slow down. I own my own trailer and have a bucket list of things I want to do in each state,” she says. “So, I wanted a truck I can haul a load with and, when I get to different states, I can drop my trailer and go do my bucket list things. “When I’m ready to move on I’ll get a load and head to another state.” I have to admit it’s a lifestyle that I could get behind. With that in mind Newman sat down with the Bolt team and worked out how to get everything she needed. As you can see from the photos, all the obvious stuff is included. Kitchen area, dining area, TV, storage space, etc. There’s a shower and toilet area and the back wall folds down to become the queen-size bed. The 36-inch TV is remotely attached to the roof and lowers down when needed. There’s an easy access campervan-style

The LED lighting throughout the whole bunk is incredible. Hidden lights around the roof create an amazing atmosphere. The kitchen is fitted with a convection microwave, meaning it can be used as either a microwave or an oven. It also has an induction stovetop. This means, rather than gas or electricity, it is electromagnetically operated. Using specific pans, the magnets heat only the pan, cooking amazingly quickly but ensuring the stovetop isn’t scorching hot afterwards. That’s a massive safety advantage in a sleeper cabin. There is also a central vacuum system, allowing Newman to just plug in the hose and vacuum the entire sleeper. As fancy as the back is, I need to focus on the cab as well. Firstly, the truck is fitted with what Newman refers to as a ‘Millennial anti-theft device’ or, as we commonly call it, a gearstick. The factory seats have been removed and replaced with two Excalibur custom seats. For those wondering what’s so special about them, sure, the air ride is to be expected.

It doesn’t really like the

roundabouts luxury when Newman’s up in around Canada, but what sets them apart is the 26-point massage system built in. Yeah, just sit with that for a moment. Running all of the amenities is a dieselpowered generator system fitted to the big Star. That, along with the auto greasing system (it may be common for us, but not in the US) and toolboxes are all tidily hidden under Bolt’s custom flirt skirts. These side skirts lift up like the baggage doors on a bus, making for easy access for Newman. Behind the other skirts are two 150-gallon

tanks, again a big step up from average American trucks running 120 gallons. For us, 150 gallons is about 567 litres. Length laws It definitely seems like her “bucket list buggy” is set to make her working life and then her attempts at retirement a lot easier, as long as she avoids tight corners and small roundabouts. “Yeah, it doesn’t really like the roundabouts. Aside from that I just have to go a bit wider for turns,” Newman admits when joking about its manoeuvrability.

However, a lot of her work is for long-term clients and on regular paths, so her truck is designed to get exactly where it needs to go. She admits she still has to do a bit more investigating for a couple of clients as Canada has different length laws to the US and she may have to jump through a few hoops to pass in and out of Canada. We need to finish up by focusing on the entire point of this story – how much time is spent cleaning the bunk before you can head home at the end of the shift. It’s an epic task for our poor US mates when they have sleepers like this. We should be thankful

that the wise overseers of our industry don’t allow us to put a decent size bunk behind our standard B-double sets. Sure, changing the regulations would allow us a more comfortable wheelbase, a bonnet, a bullbar and a big bed. But it would mean we have more to clean at the end of the run, meaning we get home a little later. I for one am glad our regulators are thinking more about the loads we can squeeze on rather than driver amenities and Armor All consumption. I really do feel for Newman and all those well-rested Americans.

Fumbling THE FUEL TAX CREDIT

Transport operators all of sizes are still coming to terms with the lack of a fuel tax credit. Industry members say urgent action is required to prevent more businesses from closing and disrupting the supply chain Words | Sean Mortell

t’s been a bleak few months for Phil Benger. The transport operator has been through soaring fuel prices before – he recalls maxing out credit cards at the turn of the century when prices last rose exponentially. It took him three years to recover his debts. Now, it all feels like déjà vu.

“The same thing is happening now,” Benger says to Deals on Wheels. “All of my cards are maxed out again and my partner has had to dip into Super to pay for maintenance on my truck.

“The trouble is I’m in my 60s now and I don’t have that much time to recover.” Benger, like many small operators across Australia currently, is stuck in between a rock and a hard place. He has to keep working just to pay his bills and make money, but while working the rising fuel costs has only created more bills. Benger knows many other companies who have already filed for bankruptcy. But, for him, it’s not an option. It’s the harrowing reality for many operators who are slowly spiralling into

more debt. On March 30 the old coalition federal government announced it would slash the 44 cents per litre fuel excise for all road vehicles to cope with the growing price of fuel and the exorbitant cost of living expenses. But while doing that they subtly took away the transport company’s fuel tax rebate credit (FTC) that provides a rebate of around 17.8 cents per litre that operators can claim back quarterly. Now, even the return of the FTC won’t erase Benger’s debts. When meeting with his accountants, Benger says even they

didn’t know about the impact the FTC’s removal was having on his business. His only solution is for the fuel prices to drop back to normal rates. “It won’t make a massive difference,” Benger said. “My fuel bill has risen from around $2,700 a month for a 10-pellat truck eight months ago to well over $5,000 currently. “If our credit comes back then the fuel price will still be over $1.85 per litre or more and that’s enough to hurt small operators like me.”

Until this happens, Benger can only hope to get by. Being a sub-contractor in the transport business, he has barely any Super to dip into. Until higher action is taken to reduce the hit on transport operators, Benger has to sit and cross his fingers that his biggest expense in fuel drops soon.

Diamond Bros CEO Kym McDermid

Cross-industry issue Yet, this FTC rebate issue isn’t just a small operator problem. Freight forwarding service Diamond Bros CEO Kym McDermid is in a tricky spot. By no means a small transport operator, the South Australian-based company is still reeling from the lack of a fuel tax rebate credit. Every day he hears of more and more small trucking businesses closing down operations and selling their small fleet of vehicles. “A lot of people tell me they’re selling their trucks and getting out,” McDermid says to Deals on Wheels. "They say they were already struggling to make money before the FTC was taken away and now they have no chance of surviving and no options.” As of going to press the new federal government had yet to reinstate the FTC rebate. McDermid has spent the past few months explaining to angry customers why his company can’t lower freight costs to

124

match the fuel price drop seen at Australian service stations. “It’s so frustrating,” McDermid says. “Now, we’ve been having arguments with customers about the fuel levy, as they expect a 22 cent per litre decrease in their costs when, in reality, we’ve only had a price drop in operations of around 3.4 cents per litre. “You can’t blame the customer for not understanding as it’s a complicated situation. When the government announced it they made it sound all positive but in effect it’s only inflated our costs further.” Since the removal of the FTC, McDermid says he’s only encountered one “quite smart” customer who called the Diamond Bros CEO and understood what had happened. But all of McDermid’s other customers struggled to comprehend why a nationwide decrease of fuel prices wasn’t leading to a drop in freight service costs. It’s led to a frustrating few months for transport operators as they continue bargaining with customers to ensure the mounting debt isn’t completely

placed on their own company’s shoulders. McDermid says he’s fortunate that Diamond Bros is a relatively large company that deals with multi-national customers, meaning he has enough cash flow still to survive. But he feels for the many small operators in Australia who are currently bleeding money. “We can’t live as an industry without the small operators,” McDermid says. “There’s around 47,000 transport companies in Australia and only four per cent of them have more than 10 trucks. In terms of companies being wiped out by this, there’s a lot of small operators being decimated.” Since the FTC was removed in March, the lack of a rebate is only compounding each month. McDermid can see the crippling impact that no cash flow is having on operators in South Australia.

As more businesses fold, there will be knock-on impacts to supply chains

to lead the charge against the FTC’s removal with the old federal government and is now taking action to underline the severity of the issue to the new Labor government. Shearer says the issue is only worsening for transport operators across the country by the day. “As each day goes by the reality is for operators that their business activity statement [BAS] liability is growing,”

Shearer told Deals on Wheels. “I believe there’s still a significant chunk of the sector that doesn’t know about this and will get the biggest shock come July 1. “Every week I’m hearing of businesses closing their doors.” Each quarter transport operators pay their BAS. Usually, the FTC is factored into these costs and removes a part of the amount that they have to pay back. For those who rely

on the FTC reducing their bills, costs will increase significantly when they make their next BAS payment on July 1. Shearer has moved to alert the new government to this issue. He recently created a survey to provide evidence to the Labor party of the crippling impact that the FTC’s removal is having on operators large and small in Australia. The results weren’t pretty. Shearer said eight per cent of operators,

which is roughly 3,500 businesses nationwide, wouldn't survive if the FTC wasn't restored by July 1. If the rebate still isn’t returned by the next BAS payment date on September 30, then just under 60 per cent of transport companies will have to shut their doors. While Shearer now looks to present these findings to recently crowned transport minister Catherine King, he can only imagine the detrimental ripple effect that these closures will have on Australia. “We saw during Covid how reliant everyone is on a safe trucking industry,” Shearer says. “When we had just a week of disruptions we saw shop shelves going empty and no toilet paper. “Now, imagine if it goes for not just a week but for months on end, like this would do. It could go on for six months before market balance gets restored.” It’s enough to scare anyone, not just transport operators who are feeling the direct pain of the rising fuel prices. Shearer can only hope taking the survey results to King’s office will help restore the FTC. In an industry where money is being stretched tight, he says it’s the operators' money. “The FTC is our money,” he says. “It’s built into our business plan because we know it’s money that we’re due. “Without any warning it was taken away. Normally one may call it breaking and entering. We need it back before it’s too late.”

Reversing THE FLOW

Although the industry is busier than ever, there is one thing hampering companies from taking advantage of it – the availability of skilled truck drivers. So, what can be done to both encourage younger generations into driving and retain skilled staff?

he transport industry is currently reeling in the midst of a truck driver shortage. While there are solutions in the works, one operator is taking matters into his own hands.

Followmont Transport CEO Mark Tobin

Of the many things that Mark Tobin had to worry about when Covid-19 first hit Australia, having enough truck drivers wasn’t one of them. But now the Followmont Transport CEO and director is struggling to manage the ever-increasing freight tasks piling on his warehouse with the waning number he now has at his disposal. “We just don’t have bums on truck seats,” Tobin told Deals on Wheels. “We’ve been trying to get truck drivers in the door, but we just don’t have enough.” Tobin says he first noticed he had a lack of trained truck drivers when Covid restrictions and isolation rules prevented many drivers from operating. When they eventually could get back into the truck, many were turned off by the poor truck stop conditions and gruelling tasks facing the freight industry as the supply chain began to rely heavily on the sector to remain mobile.

But, in the months that have followed the Covid pandemic, Tobin says nothing has changed and many truck drivers haven’t returned to the transport industry. “It hasn’t gotten any better for us at all,” Tobin says. “We’ve been inundated with freight tasks, delivering to people in the supply chain, and that’s added pressure to what we have to do without the adequate amount of drivers on board.” Tobin stresses the problem isn’t an easy fix. Transport companies simply can’t quickly train new drivers and pluck them from obscurity for arduous truck runs. Tobin says Followmont Transport has had to tread a fine line between prioritising the safety of drivers while also completing as many tasks as possible. “You can’t ever jeopardise a driver’s safety and we have zero tolerance for that,” he says. “We’ve been trying to get drivers in while making sure they’re competent. You can’t just throw a new truck driver straight in a truck. They require training and educating before they work and it’s a process.” Yet the transport company CEO says this

Industry DEALS spike in truck driver shortages isn’t a new issue. For years he says the cultural landscape of truck driving has failed to attract a younger generation of workers. He says the average age for truck drivers continues to push above 50 and that a lack of youth will only exacerbate the issue in coming years. A nation-wide shortage It’s not a problem specifically haunting Followmont Transport. Gary Mahon, CEO of the Queensland Transport Association (QTA), says he is witnessing more and more companies reporting skilled driver shortages in recent times. From Mahon’s perspective the problem has worsened over the past few years, with the pandemic adding to an ageing profile of drivers and growing demand for supply chain tasks, creating an acute problem that’s hurting the entire transport industry. He says he’s seen a wide range of problems emerge from transport operators failing to

retain enough competent truck drivers. “It’s an ever-shrinking group of people that you can recruit from these days,” Mahon says to Deals on Wheels. “Some companies are doing better than others but it depends on the nature of the work and whether it’s a long-distance or urban-based business. “Our concern has now turned towards how to better recruit drivers to bolster the industry before it’s too late.” Mahon says many truck drivers decided to leave the industry during the Covid period due to the testing restrictions placed on workers. Although the road freight sector kept trucking along, constant PCR tests, cabin cleans, border arrangements and self-isolation protocols turned drivers away. When they did finally get out on the roads, Mahon says drivers were confronted with poor truck stop conditions. Yet, Mahon can only praise the thousands of truck drivers who kept transporting

He says it’s creating a stunting effect where operators want to expand to meet the growing freight demand but are hamstrung by a lack of drivers to absorb that growth. A range of fixes Both Mahon and Tobin agree on the solution. For years the federal government has been teasing a jobs-ready initiative that would provide apprenticeships and traineeships for young people to hasten their safe transition into the truck driving industry. Mahon says this system wouldn’t just haphazardly usher in a flood of young drivers not prepared to face the dangers of Australia’s freight routes. Instead, he says it

would lift the safety standard of all drivers in the country. “The jobs-ready program will improve the safety of all drivers in the industry,” Mahon says. “We know there’s a range of people with a truck license who can’t get a job because they lack experience. This is a different and better way of developing the experience so that employers know what they’ve been through and can assess them through mentoring. They then know that, when the driver has finished the program, they will have a capable employee on their hands.” Mahon says a program like this used to happen regularly in the industry 30 to 40 years ago, where young people worked their way through the industry to eventually become drivers. But he says this initiative is an accelerated and more formal version of this idea, which can provide a pathway for inexperienced drivers to develop their skills. Although Tobin likes the idea and is keenly waiting for the initiative to begin, he says he has learnt not to solely wait on the federal government to replenish truck driver stocks. Instead, Followmont Transport has been implementing its own programs designed to lure young prospects into the industry while also tapping into sections of the population

We need to start talking a different language when it comes to diversity and getting more women to come and work for us.” Other initiatives Tobin is introducing at Followmont includes driver bonuses for recruiting a new employee to the business and solid schedules that don’t result in drivers working overtime to transport goods. Followmont has also introduced ‘Pinky’ – a new branded truck on the road that celebrates women in transport and encourages more women to consider truck driving as a career choice. Through projects like ‘Pinky’ and a series of videos on diversity, Tobin says his company is conscious of using its brand and marketing to connect people to the operators and promote its inclusive values. While Tobin continues to explore avenues

of luring more skilled workers into the transport industry, he is also longing for the apprenticeship system to be put in place. He says it’s a primary solution that must be implemented as soon as possible. “The biggest thing we talk about with the federal government is the apprenticeship and traineeship scheme, but they still haven’t gotten it together,” Tobin says. “It took years to recognise they needed this for truck drivers, but it’s a process we need right now.” For now, both Mahon and Tobin are intent that positivity is key. Tobin says the new jobsready program won’t necessarily save the industry, but it needs to get off the ground. But while Tobin waits, he’ll keep doing whatever he can to make his business and brand a lucrative option for young drivers wanting to join the industry. “We simply have to be positive and focus on the solutions and not the negatives,” Tobin says. “All these changes in the industry recently means we need to look forward and promote the sector at every level we possibly can. “It’s a great industry and we need to make it more attractive for a diverse range of young people wanting to join such a rewarding sector.”

One of the challenges is how to attract school leavers towards the industry when they are making career choices

The growing demand of freight and ageing profile of drivers means larger numbers need to be trained sufficiently to handle the task

Building SMART CITIES

upported by $1.18 million in funding from the federal government’s Australian 5G Innovation Initiative, the project that commenced in November 2021 will run until the end of September, analysing data from 900km of road within the Brimbank Council area.

13 garbage trucks operated by Melbourne council of Brimbank have been fitted with high resolution stereo vision cameras and GPS sensors

The project is equipping 13 garbage trucks operated by Melbourne council of Brimbank with high resolution stereo vision cameras and GPS sensors, with the data sent to a Cloud-based system for analysis to identify assets on the road or road signs that require maintenance. This helps the council create a map of jobs, such as fixing broken road signs, graffitied bus shelters or damaged roads in real-time. The Initiative provides businesses with funding to trial and test applications that demonstrate 5G’s capability and benefits across a range of industry sectors and locations. The director of Swinburne’s Factory of the Future and Digital Innovation Lab, Associate Professor Prem Prakash Jayaraman, speaking

to Deals on Wheels, says that this particular project is the first of its kind. “The aim of this project is to get some real-world data of how 5G can support applications like this,” says Jayaraman. “So, working with Brimbank, who we have partnered with in the past, we started brainstorming how we could apply for this funding from the 5G Innovation Initiative, and that's when we came up with one of the common problems that councils face, which is maintenance of the local area and citizens’ perception of what the council is doing to improve its community. This includes rubbish dumped on the side of the road, graffiti, damaged road signs and bus shelters, etc. “We decided to develop a solution to address this fundamental problem, because this has a direct impact on citizens in terms of how their community looks and how it feels for them.” Cutting-edge technology Working alongside Optus, which provided the 5G infrastructure, and AWS, which provided

the Cloud services, the Swinburne project team is using its expertise and experience in researching the Internet of Things, Cloud computing, camera technology and sensors to make garbage trucks ‘intelligent’ by installing 3D depth sensing cameras and 5G router on board the trucks and upload data in real-time as they make their usual rubbish collection rounds. “These cameras are a bit different than your normal phone cameras, which provides you with a standard RGB [red, green and blue] image,” says Jayaraman. “Depth sensing means the camera knows exactly how far away a particular object is. This is helpful for the system to know how tall a bin is or is there a bin that has fallen over, because it knows the dimensions. “So, we thought 5G was a very good

medium for us to be able to collect data, upload it and, in real time, detect issues such as someone's dumped a mattress at the side of the road. We can see these and notify the council that there is an issue and raise a job for them to fix it pro-actively.” The cameras collect 3D perception data at a rate of 900MB/second (average mobile phone download speeds are around 43MB/ sec) and build a heat map of the area in front of the truck. When it comes to why garbage trucks were specifically chosen to trial the system, Jayaraman says that a key feature is their ‘natural mobility’ – the trucks already run on every road within the council’s area each week, so are the perfect mechanism for putting additional eyes on the road to spot issues as they occur.

Information from the cameras is uploaded via 5G to the Cloud for realtime tracking of issues found as the trucks drive their usual routes

“You can't get anything better than garbage trucks because they go to every nook and corner of your council,” he explains. “And 5G offers a lot of benefits for this kind of scenario in terms of low latency and high bandwidth. And with the trucks always moving at slow speed, they are a great way of testing 5G coverage. “But, also, it's a very interesting use case because, if we are successful – and looks like we will be because we've been getting very good results out of the initial deployments – you're looking at significant savings in terms of both time and dollars. And, most importantly, it helps the council move from being reactive to more proactive. Currently, the only way they know rubbish has been dumped is if somebody calls up and says they’ve found a mattress on the side of the road.” Through applying this approach, time is saved by not having to send staff out to assess potential issues – the data is supplied to them in the office where a decision can be made on what remedial work needs to take place. There is also the added value to people living in the council area – the faster dumped rubbish or a vandalised bus stop is removed or repaired, the higher the satisfaction.

The map is built using state-of-the-art AI and machine learning techniques that increase in accuracy over time. As Jayaraman points out, there’s nothing else like this taking place. “We are actually building this from scratch,” he says. “So, we need to trial this to build confidence in the system. Once we have enough confidence, the map will highlight something like a dumped mattress and the council will be able to validate that and log jobs. “Eventually, when we go to a level where the system is very high in terms of confidence, this is fully automated. Then the council can focus on other kinds of problems, such as potholes in the road, flooding after a storm, overhanging trees, etc. For this project we are focusing on the three main problems of road signs, bus shelters and dumped rubbish. However, with the data that we are gathering, we could do a whole lot more.” So, this is just the beginning – with trucks already patrolling the streets, a whole checklist of items could potentially be programmed into the software. More councils are already interested in installing the system in their own areas, too. But what if your council covers a vast regional area and thousands of kilometres of roads?

Thinking smart This first step of the project is testing the creation of a heat map, which presents potential issues found on the road as the garbage trucks follow their usual routes.

Expanding out of cities As many truckies know, rural roads can often be a bumpy ride and, with the largest council area in Australia covering a distance greater than the entire state of Victoria (East Pilbara

for those who are wondering), it can often be difficult to regularly assess roads. This particular project is focusing on a major city council and the capabilities of a high-speed 5G internet connection for data processing and analysis in real time. But Jayaraman says there absolutely is the potential to expand out of urban areas and there is still the potential for this technology to

be utilised on rural and regional roads, even if the 5G coverage isn’t there. “A lot of this can be done while you're offline and then you upload the data when you're online,” he says. “So, the system doesn’t always need to be connected. The real benefit in having the highspeed internet connectivity is to be able to do this in real time. In rural areas, when you've

got connectivity, you can the jobs out then, it would just be a slower process. “The beauty about this is that the garbage trucks are already on the road – they’re not something additional that we have to put into the system. The cost of getting the data is nothing – we don't need to pay someone to drive on roads to specifically collect this data. “So, in places serviced by garbage trucks,

it's an easy thing to implement. But of course, there are other schemes. For example, you could have discussions with other providers, including toll road operators.” With all kinds of trucks getting smarter and more connected, we could be on the edge of a breakthrough to finally target bad roads – a plus for operators, councils and residents alike.

The aim of the project is to see how 5G can be applied to real-world issues such as rubbish being dumped at the side of the road

W The Eyre Highway – Western Australian truckies have refused to drive over the border with South Australia due to fines incurred on the NHVR logbook system

hen the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) was formed in 2013, it became a statutory authority to administer a single set of laws. Fatigue management was a key component behind this idea. Emerging was the Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL) that established a national, one-size-fits-all truck driver logbook system. It was designed to eliminate all prior issues and unite Australia’s states and territories.

But two didn’t come to the party. Instead of conceding to the NHVR and signing on to be governed by the NHVR’s logbook system, Western Australia and the Northern Territory refused. They went with

their own individual fatigue management framework. To this day, both WA and the NT operate individually, governing their truck drivers with a different system. But why? Western Roads Federation (WRF) is the primary transport body representing truckies in WA. CEO Cam Dumesny says the state’s driver fatigue management framework works perfectly fine – so much so that he knows operators who refuse to cross the eastern border to South Australia and other NHVR-governed states. “I’ve had drivers go east and refuse to drive anymore due to the fines they’ve incurred on the NHVR logbook system,” Dumesny says.

“They get slapped with fines to do with administrative issues that aren’t related to fatigue or safety infringements and don’t want to go back.” Two similar systems? Although WA is still adamant it doesn’t want to be part of the NHVR’s fatigue management system or the HVNL’s latest reforms, Dumesny’s description of the state’s logbook framework isn’t too dissimilar to the national system. WA’s system works under WorkSafe WA, where a code of practice puts the onus on the employer to be the party responsible for managing its employees’ fatigue. Further industrial manslaughter laws developed by the state aims to ensure driver fatigue is a crucial component managed by transport operators. Despite being a different set-up to the NHVR’s national logbook, WA’s system is still similar in requiring drivers to record trips and have a trip schedule. “It’s not as complex as the eastern coast’s logbook [under the NHVR],” Dumesny says. “But it’s increasingly needed with industrial manslaughter laws now being implemented.

“The WA system also provides a more intense focus on flexibility than its eastern seaboard counterpart.” Dumesny says the third key element of the WA logbook system is a clear distinction between work and rest. Unlike the more heavily populated freight routes along eastern coast states, there are fewer high-quality truck stops along WA’s endless highways. The WRF CEO says the WA system recognises the state’s own unique transport

With the introduction of electronic work diaries, the WA and NT systems may soon mirror the NHVR despite being separate systems

network and conveys a sense of flexibility and responsibility for drivers to comply with laws while also deciding where and when they stop for breaks. Instead, an intricate knowledge of the variable nature of fatigue in truck drivers is a key component in WA’s framework that Dumesny says is a clear difference to the NHVR’s logbook model. “Our fatigue management system isn’t the default scheduling system that seems to be the case in the east coast’s logbook,” Dusmesny says. “A national company did studies and found most fatigue incidents occur in the first couple of hours when driving. “So, the WA logbook has flexibility enshrined in it to allow drivers to pull up somewhere and have a break, even if they’ve taken off recently.” Dumesny says the WA system isn’t overbearing on drivers – truckies know they have to reach a certain destination within a timeframe but aren’t directed on where to stop and when to take breaks. The WRF CEO says this system is widely accepted amongst WA’s transport industry and there’s been limited moves to make changes. Yet, when truck drivers cross the border over to South Australia and other eastern

states, where the NHVR’s logbook governs drivers, Dumesny says that’s where the problems begin. “We have a lot of drivers who don’t want to drive east, largely because of the logbook administrative errors,” Dusmesny says. “I had an incident with a driver around four years ago where they called me from South Australia and said he got fined around $750 for not having signed off on his logbook, even though he was resting in the sleeper while his colleague was driving – it’s this sense of relative inequity in administration that annoys WA drivers when they cross the border. “When the first fatigue regulations came out in 1938 it was one page. Now, it’s around 104 pages long just on fatigue breaches listed under the law – it’s ridiculous. Are we seriously addressing fatigue or just dealing with the administration of fatigue?” But other members of the industry say although WA and the NT’s logbook system is separate to the NHVR’s, it isn’t that different in effect. Comparing logbooks NHVR fatigue specialist Andreas Blahous says when the NHVR first had the state logbook functions transferred to it in 2013,

148

DOW 481-144 ID Work diaries CF.indd 148

23/6/2022 7:25 am

Industry New DEALS DEALS it fixed any issues before implementing the current system. Blahous says the current national model that is used in every Australian area but WA and the NT prioritises driver safety and is a well-recorded method of managing fatigue. “The whole concept of our logbook system is to use work and rest limits as a way to forecast potential fatigue risks for drivers,” Blahous says. “We have a system with limits to ensure drivers don’t work too long and put themselves at risk while ensuring they have enough time to rest, recover and sleep. “Our work diary has clear and concise measures so drivers can self-regulate, while operators and our compliance officers can keep an eye on drivers.” Blahous says a major benefit of the NHVR’s organised work diary model is its ability to manage and encourage productivity while prioritising the safety of truck drivers. Despite what Dumesny says, Blahous is adamant the NHVR’s system has plenty of flexibility in it to eventually allow drivers and operators to establish their own rules that allow for productivity and safety. Although the NHVR system is rigid in structure, the NHVR fatigue specialist says the rules don’t obstruct individuality amongst drivers’ schedules. “The rules have been deliberately constructed so drivers and operators can know what they need for work and rest and what’s best for them,” Blahous says. “We don’t want the rules to get in the way of that. “We promote this flexibility through our fatigue choices campaign and has been addressed constantly since its inception in 2013.”

Blahous admits the NHVR’s logbook system isn’t perfect, but it has gotten better and more consistent due to reviews in recent years. He says the NHVR is constantly receptive to feedback and suggestions for improvement from operators and drivers. With 15 years of experience on fatigue management structures, Blahous says the NHVR’s work diary and the WA system are more similar than many may think. “What I see is there’s a lot of overlap between the systems,” Blahous says. “WA’s system has a lot of similarities to certain flexible elements present in the eastern seaboard’s regulations and vice versa. “We have specific materials available to give to WA truck drivers when they cross the border – they can call us on 13 NHVR [6487] and we have specific advice on cross-border transport circumstances.” Blahous says there aren’t many major differences between the two different logbook systems. In fact, Blahous says he can only see the two variations merging closer with the introduction of electronic work diaries (EWDs). Before long, the NHVR fatigue specialist says WA's and the NT’s systems may mirror the national framework soon without realising. “Operators have come to me and said they want a logbook similar to what is seen in WA and that’s within the realms of the NHVR to grant that approval,” Blahous says. “The EWD system is making it easier to do paperwork while still keeping clear and correct information on it to enforce compliance. “I’m keen to see an increasing number of devices approved for EWDs so we can see the work diary framework become more universal for drivers, while remaining flexible.”

Western Australia and the Northern Territory have their own individual fatigue management framework, independent of NHVR

he 2021 Brisbane Truck Show was an undoubted success despite Covid playing havoc within the general population, not to mention the threat of state border restrictions. But in what was a timely window of opportunity in May last year, show organisers Heavy Vehicle Industry Australia (HVIA) maintained their focus, determined that the show must go on.

Looking ahead, a number of truck manufacturers who opted out for various

reasons last year are now back on board for 2023, with Volvo Group Australia (VGA) leading the way. VGA had missed the opportunity to showcase its new models at Brisbane in 2021, but in response to questions from sister magazine OwnerDriver, VGA president and chief executive Martin Merrick says he is looking ahead to May 2023. “Hindsight is always 20/20. We had a whole new Volvo Trucks range and well as an updated Mack range to launch. However,

152

given the tumultuous events of last year I stand by our decision not to participate in 2021,” Merrick says. “Depending on the uncertainty of borders during a pandemic was too great a risk in terms of launching and promoting these models. Instead, we sent our new range of trucks on a roadshow which allowed customers to see them up close, learn about their new features and drive them. “Some commentators mentioned cost cutting as a motive at the time, however

I’d point out that it’s actually more expensive to send 14 trucks with multiple staff on a four-month roadshow to every region of the country than to attend the Brisbane Truck Show.” Despite its absence in 2021, Merrick says VGA has always been a supporter of the Brisbane Truck Show. In 2019, as well as inside the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre, it paraded trucks on the opposite side of the Brisbane River and into the CBD. “We do think it’s an important industry event and a great opportunity for people to reconnect in the wake of the Covid pandemic,” Merrick continues. “We’ve been instrumental in the past in taking the show outside its traditional boundaries and into the city for the general public to see. “Connecting with industry and connecting with customers is important to us. And given recent events many of us across the industry are also reconnecting. “While technology allowed us to keep our people connected and our businesses running, we’ve also seen that the human element, the relational aspect of our industry works much better face to face.” While VGA missed out on displaying the new Mack Anthem in 2021, Merrick points out that it has previously been on display at the Brisbane Truck Show, albeit in cutaway format. “Last year we were able to drive the new Anthem into dealerships and customer yards around the country. In fact, we were also able to connect with customers that don’t have the time to attend shows,” Merrick says. “Customer feedback on the Anthem, especially in regard to fuel efficiency has been excellent so we are looking forward to seeing the Anthem on the stand in 2023 with some great stories to tell. “We’ve got some great things happening before then,” he adds. Show attendees can also expect to see UD Trucks on the VGA stand, despite the Japanese trucks now officially part of Isuzu. However, Merrick says, as VGA is the sole importer of UD Trucks in Australia, it will definitely be showcasing the best that UD has to offer to the Australian market. “We’re very proud to have UD as a part of the VGA stable.”

Saudi-built Volvos arrive in Oz A sharp-eyed visitor to Volvo HQ in Brisbane has spotted a batch of trucks believed to be the first of a significant number of fully builtup FH models imported from Volvo’s factory in Saudi Arabia. Following questions from Deals on Wheels’ sister magazine Owner Driver several months ago, Volvo Group Australia chief Martin Merrick confirmed: “Volvo Group Australia is supplementing the supply of locally manufactured vehicles with CBU

[completely built-up] units from Sweden and Saudi Arabia.” While further commenting that Volvo’s Wacol factory in Brisbane had “experienced severe supply chain disruption during 2021”, Merrick steadfastly refuted suggestions that the fully imported trucks might impact the current and future viability of the Wacol production plant which this year celebrates 50 years of truck production. “Volvo Group is completely committed to

the future of Australian manufacturing and of our Wacol factory,” he said. “The intent of this [fully imported] strategy is to meet unprecedented market demand during 2022,” Merrick continued, adding that this is not the first time VGA has looked to overseas factories for support during times of booming demand for trucks. “This has always only been a temporary supplementary strategy. Our preference will always be to prioritise local manufacturing.

“In the case of Saudi-built trucks, components from Australian suppliers have been shipped to that plant and we have Australian staff on the ground there providing assistance,” he remarked. The trucks photographed here are all FH 540 (13 litre) models and, according to one source, build quality meets all VGA standards. – Steve Brooks

EB-330FAS NC swivel head metal cutting band saw The Wazer is in hot demand in fabrication workshops

Ride the Jetstream Soon available through Hare & Forbes Machineryhouse, the Wazer desktop CNC waterjet cuts hard and soft materials with digital precision Waterjet cutters have been around for a long time, however, their size and cost can put them out of the reach of individuals or small business. The new Wazer desktop waterjet is designed to change that, using a high velocity jet and a combination of highpressure water and abrasive particles to cut through both hard and soft materials. The Wazer small format waterjet can cut through sheets of almost any material, including metal, stone, ceramic, composites, plastic, rubber and foam. Users have been attracted by how easy it is to connect to standard electricity, water and drainage points. The unit’s compact size fits in any workspace and brings professional-grade fabrication into any workshop. It is ideal for on-demand cutting of custom parts and its in-house capabilities reduce the need for outsourcing. Wazer has been in high demand by small manufacturing businesses, research and development facilities, universities and technical departments where it is used for prototyping, manufacturing, fine art and instruction, it says. The waterjet was developed by cofounders Nisan Lerea and Matthew Nowicki during their time as students at the University of Pennsylvania, where both were involved in the students’ Formula SAE Team, which built a new racecar every year to race at an intercollegiate competition. “I would go on to spend hundreds of hours in Penn’s machine shop, CNCmilling metal parts for the race car, for research labs, or for my own coursework,” Lerea says.

A sample cutting from the machine

Lerea says the engineers would normally try to save time by designing parts that could be laser cut – with the downside of this being that they could only use parts made in acrylic or MDF. Tasked by a professor to build a small waterjet for the assigned year-long design project, by May 2012 the students had built their first small-scale waterjet, capable of cutting through aluminium 6.3mm thick and steel 3mm thick. By 2015 Lerea and Nowicki were working on the project full time, and in January 2016 they moved temporarily to Shenzhen, China, to join the Hax Accelerator, where they developed the business and refined the design and engineering of Wazer. Today, the Wazer team comprises mechanical, electrical and manufacturing engineers who collectively have led the designs of multiple products, both at start-up and large companies. Further details and full specifications available at machineryhouse.com.au/w08720

Cut through This metal-cutting band saw, sold by Hare & Forbes Machineryhouse, is built for clean, high precision cuts The Hafco Metalmaster EB-330FAS NC swivel head metal cutting band saw is a fully automatic hitch feed, single mitre band saw designed for repetitive cutting of small to medium-sized sections in single or pack forms. It features an automatic hitch feed, 178 mm (7-inch) touchscreen controller that stores 20 programs and boasts an inverter infinitely variable blade speed control of 25–82 metres per minute. The band saw cuts from 0 degrees to 45 degrees right in its automatic cycle and from 0 degrees to 60 degrees right in the semi-automatic cycle. It also has hydraulic vice clamping with a manual hand wheel adjustment. Featuring a 500mm stroke hitch feed vice with ball screws and a servo driven motor, the band saw is able to cut infinite lengths. Ball bearing blade guides ensure minimal blade clearance wear, which increases blade life due to less friction. A mechanical position sensor allows the saw frame to lower quickly toward the material and automatically detect the start-cut point. Blade wear is minimised by the bi-metal blade function that retracts the vice after cutting, preventing the blade from rubbing on return. Other features include a quick action lock/release lever for the swivel head, a heavy-duty gear drive system and a blade cleaning brush Operation of the Metalmaster EB330FAS band saw produces low noise and is vibration free – ensuring it can make those high precision cuts without interference.

New N Series. The Next Generation of Safety.

Advanced Emergency Braking Our new N Series trucks are the next generation of Isuzu safety. They come standard with features like advanced emergency braking that can recognise pedestrians, a lane departure warning that sounds if the truck starts to drift, and a distance warning system to alert the driver if they’re getting too close to the vehicle in front. So they’re designed to keep every road user safe. Pre-order yours from your nearest Isuzu Dealer or visit isuzu.com.au to explore the range.

Safety features are for driver’s assistance only. Responsibility for the vehicle (including maintaining control, awareness of surroundings, and following road rules) remains wholly with the driver. Warranty is subject to the conditions outlined in the IAL New Vehicle Warranty. For further information please visit isuzu.com.au or contact your local dealer. FSA/ISZS1017
