Following our previous publication on the NSW Freight Policy Reform Program Consultation Paper, this article serves as a notice that reform submissions have been published and are publicly available as of 19 July 2024. As part of the consultation process, the feedback period for the Consultation Paper closed in May 2024, with over 120 written and verbal submissions received and recorded. This feedback will be adopted by Transport for New South Wales (‘TfNSW’) to be considered in informing policy considerations and is publicly available on the TfNSW website.
In line with the Consultation Paper, the NSW freight policy reform is also taking an end-to-end system approach and considering the entire freight logistics chain. This includes consultation, feedback and available submissions on the Draft Heavy Vehicle Access Policy and how the implementation of 20 of the 21 PBLIS recommendations may benefit or impact industry (available here).

We will continue to monitor the Reform Program and keep you updated with further developments.
