Aussie truck sales continuing to break records February’s truck sales results are in and the record breaking trends set at the end of last year are continuing to the tune of a 21.8 per cent increase in sales volumes in February 2023 Heavy Monthly sales compared to February 2022.

Manufacturer February VOLVO 265 A new record for monthly truck and heavy van sales for February KENWORTH 251 ISUZU 173 UD TRUCKS has been set, and96it’s just one vehicle short of 3500 units moved.

MERCEDES-BENZ 66 SCANIA 57 TheHeavy February result of 3,499 trucks sold has smashed the Monthly 2023 sales HINO 57 DAF Manufacturer February previous record of56 MACK 48 3,017 set in 2008.

VOLVO 265 FUSO 46 KENWORTH 251 MAN 32 Isuzu has been hot out ISUZU 173 of the gates for 2023, leading the overall FREIGHTLINER 30 UD TRUCKS 96 IVECO 23 MERCEDES-BENZ 66 sales tally with 1984 sales recorded for the year so far, followed by WESTERN STAR 17 SCANIA 57 DENNIS EAGLE 7 HINO Fuso on 690 and Hino 5756on 659.

DAF MACK 48 FUSO 46 The early lead in the heavy-duty vehicle category goes to MAN 32 FREIGHTLINER 30 IVECO 23 1224 trucks Kenworth with 448 sold until the end of February, followed WESTERN STAR 17 DENNIS EAGLE by Volvo on 440 year to7 date and Isuzu on 323.

In the medium duty category Isuzu won the month with 304 units sold, followed by Hino1224 on 130 and Fuso on 95.

The same order flowed through to the light duty category with February Isuzu (607), Fuso (248) and Hino (223).

Truck Industry Council CEO Tony McMullan says the strong sales start to 2023 is very positive for the road transport industry, however he warns the second half of the year could be a little different.

“January and February sales have been very strong, leading to a number of monthly new truck sales records to be broken early in 2023,” McMullan says.

“However, with many sectors of the economy cooling due to interest rate rises and particularly with negotiations ongoing with federal treasury over extending the delivery timeline for the Temporary Full Expensing incentive that is scheduled end on the 30th of June, industry is concerned that many truck orders will be cancelled because trucks will not be completed and delivered into service, due to ongoing global supply chain issues.

“Cancelled orders will directly affect employment at body builders, equipment suppliers, truck dealerships and OEMs. With the potential for many job losses.

“The Truck Industry Council and the Australian Trucking

Association have been jointly calling for the current Labor government to extend the delivery timeline for the Temporary Full Expensing scheme, allowing trucks that are already ordered, to be delivered up until the 30th June 2024.

“Thus avoiding potential job losses in the manufacturing and road transport sectors.”

Medium-duty

Heavy-duty

Light-duty

For the second month in succession, the result for the Heavy Duty truck segment was particularly good, with 1,224 HD trucks sold, up 19.0 percent, or 195 units, on February 2022. This result broke the previous February sales record, set before the onset of the GFC in 2008, when 1,060 trucks were sold, by 13.4 per cent. These strong January and February sales brings the 2023 year-to-date tally to 2,168 heavies, 22.7 per cent (401 trucks) above sales at this time last year.

The Light Duty truck segment continues to perform well, with 1,280 sales in February, up a very healthy 25.1 per cent over February 2022, that represented 257 more LD trucks delivered than February last year. This was another record, eclipsing the previous best February sales result of last year when 1,023 little trucks were sold. Year-to-date sales for LD trucks are well ahead of 2022, with 2,269 sales this year, versus 1,791 last year. That is a 26.7 per cent increase, or 478 more truck sales thus far in 2023.

The Medium Duty for February recorded 570 truck deliveries versus 544 units in February 2022, a small gain of 4.8 per cent.

Year-to-date the MD segment is tracking 5.2 per cent above 2022 sales, with 1,015 medium trucks sold in 2023 compared to 965 trucks to the end of February last year.

Trucking FUN

Brisbane will be the place to be this May when the transport industry comes out in force for Australian Heavy Vehicle Industry Week and the mighty Brisbane Truck Show With the borders open and COVID starting to become a memory, the 2023 Brisbane Truck Show and the festival of all things heavy transport around it, is shaping up to be massive.

This year will be the third time Australian Heavy Vehicle Industry Week has been celebrated as a way of encapsulating everybody and everything that is involved in making the industry what it is today.

During the course of the week manufacturers of trucks, trailers, and equipment, technology providers, training services and the service, sales, support and parts sectors will have the chance to showcase their unique skills and offerings to industry insiders from around the globe.

This year there are six themes to Australian Heavy Vehicle Week – safety, sustainability, innovation, careers, knowledge and community.

Rolling out the South Bank Truck Festival along the main street, complete with truck and trailer displays and a wide range of live entertainment is just one way of bringing trucking to the front of mind for the community.

The truck and trailer display planned for Little Stanley Street will feature a large component of low and zero-emissions

vehicles, high-productivity designs, Australian-made trucks and trailers and stories about the people that make and use them – to deliver the goods the community take for granted every day.

A real Mack Anthem, alongside a full-scale replica, being built from Lego bricks will be another highlight of the event, helping Mack Trucks to celebrate 60 years of manufacturing in Australia.

Australian Heavy Vehicle Industry Week kicks off on Monday, May 15, with the Brisbane Truck Show, and the Heavy Vehicle and Equipment Show running from Thursday, May 18 to Sunday, May 21.

Tickets are valid for both events on the day of entry, and free buses run between the two.

The Heritage Vehicle Association will host their show over the weekend of May 20 and 21, with free buses from the Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre.

Australian Heavy Vehicle Industry Week is presented with the support of the Queensland Government, Tourism and Events Queensland and the Brisbane Economic Development Agency.

For tickets or to find out more about the Brisbane Truck Show, go to brisbanetruckshow.com.au

Shoguns boost port business ACFS Port Logistics has added 10 new Fuso Shogun prime movers to its fleet The new models, which include six 460 Shoguns and four 510 Shoguns, join a large number of Mercedes-Benz Trucks Actros models in the ACFS stable.

Fuso says its Shogun 510 is the hardest hitting Japanese truck in Australia, with more power (510hp) and torque (2500Nm) than its rivals.

ACFS Port Logistics moves 1.2 million TEU (Twenty Foot Equivalent Units) every year and operates 15 warehouses around the country.

The company has put the Shoguns to work in single, B-Double and sideloader applications.

All Shoguns feature advanced engines that meet the Euro 6 emission standard and produce dramatically less particulate matter and nitrogen oxide than equivalent Euro 5 rated engines.

The Shogun purchase is part of the ACFS Port Logistics Fleet Renewal Program and was organised through Daimler Trucks Gold Coast by salesman Brock McGarity.

“We have ramped up our commitment to reducing carbon

emissions with our fleet renewal program that focuses on vehicles that are Euro 6 rated, which includes the Fuso Shogun and Mercedes-Benz Actros models,” ACFS Port Logistics Fleet and Compliance Manager Alan Guest says.

“We are excited to welcome these Shoguns to our fleet as they tick the boxes when it comes to emissions, efficiency and safety.

“The drivers love them too. They’re a good fit for our fleet.“ Safety is paramount for ACFS Port Logistics and the Shogun’s advanced active safety features were key to its selection.

The Shogun comes with a radar/ camera Advanced Emergency Braking System (AEBS), which can automatically perform emergency braking for vehicles and moving pedestrians. All Shoguns come standard with Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) and Active Attention Assist (AAA).

ACFS Port Logistics also adds its own task-specific safety items on top of the suite of standard safety features

10 Fuso Canters have joined the ranks at ACFS Port Logistics

including five cameras and data telemetry system, as well as fitting its trailers with all the latest features including electronic aids.

The Shogun 460 uses an efficient 11litre six-cylinder engine that generates 460hp and is teamed with a 12speed fully-automated transmission.

The 510hp 13-litre Shogun 510 was developed specifically for Australia, in response to local requests for a Japanese truck with more than 500hp.

Guest says ACFS is pleased with the fuel efficiency of the new Shogun models.

“The fuel efficiency is quite good, we’re getting near double the efficiency compared to the trucks they replace,” he says.

ACFS is continually looking at new innovative technologies designed to reduce its carbon footprint and is excited by upcoming zero emission Daimler Truck models that will suit cargo distribution.

Icy test for Mercedes Mercedes-Benz is ready to launch series production on new truck models after recently testing them in harsh winter conditions in Finland Manufacturer Mercedes-Benz says this year’s Mercedes-Benz Truck winter tests in Rovaniemi, Finland once again proved to be important endurance tests.

This included vehicles from various model series – such as prototypes of the battery-electric eActros LongHaul, with series readiness planned for 2024, and the battery-electric eActros 300 as a tractor unit and the conventionally powered Actros L with diesel engine.

Under extreme climatic conditions, such as on snowy and icy roadways, harsh winds and temperatures down to minus 25 degrees, the development and test team tested the individual models in order to derive possible measures for further optimisation.

“Testing our product range under extreme winter conditions is also an essential part of our vehicle development in terms of alternative drives,” Mercedes-Benz Trucks head of global testing Dr Christof Weber says.

“Haulage companies must be able to rely on our electric trucks in a highly competitive environment at any time of year, just as they are used to from conventionally powered vehicles.

For this reason, our test engineers in Finland put the vehicles through their paces for six weeks.”

Mercedes-Benz Truck development engineers took a close look at all the functions and systems of the vehicles in practical use on the trip to Finland.

Since several national borders had to be crossed, it was also possible to measure the impact of

country-specific lane markings, traffic signs or digital map data on the performance of the assistance systems installed in the trucks. The fact that the trucks were tested all day long also allowed aspects such as the comfort of the driver’s seat to be evaluated.

In the case of the eActros LongHaul and the eActros 300 Tractor, experts paid particular attention to the battery properties and the electric drivetrain on site in adverse weather conditions.

For this purpose, elements including starting properties and drive components’ protection from low temperatures, software and interfaces were tested. In addition, thermal and energy management systems were subjected to intensive testing, ensuring that both the drivetrain and the driver’s cab are temperature-controlled correctly

and energy-efficiently, even at low temperatures.

“We are very satisfied with our test results. The tests of the batteries and electric drivetrain properties at extreme temperatures or of the vehicle’s driving properties on slick, icy roads show that even in very wintry conditions, our batterypowered trucks are fully operational,” Weber says.

The eActros 300 model variant as a tractor unit, introduced for the first time at IAA Transportation 2022 in Hanover, can pull all common European semitrailers, taking into account the maximum permissible overall vehicle combination length.

The electric truck is based on the same technology as the eActros 300/400. Series production is scheduled to start in the second half of 2023.

UD wins Spudshed hearts For WA family business Spudshed, UD Trucks is helping them deliver fresh produce all around the state

Western Australian business Spudshed started its life as a market garden that the Galati family had tended to in Spearwood since the 1960s.

Spudshed’s owner Tony Galati grew up working alongside his brothers Vince and Sam and helping his parents to manage the garden business, and was there when it converted into Spudshed in 1998.

In the 25 years since, the business has grown to be a multi-million dollar operation, offering a range of meat, dairy and grocery products to stores across Western Australia.

Galati says as the business has grown over the years, so too has its fleet of UD Trucks, helping to make deliveries reliable and efficient.

“The operation out here in Canning Vale moves around 500 pallets every day, so you have to be really quick when produce comes in to load the trucks every morning,” Galati says.

“You don’t realise how much is involved in getting produce to a retail store or to the markets, if you don’t have the reliability of your trucks then you’re in trouble.”

Galati says reliability was a main factor that steered Spudshed towards UD Trucks.

With Spudshed’s trucks typically travelling between 600 – 700 kilometres a day and between 1000 – 1200 kilometres during the busier season, this reliability remains a must.

“We bought one truck and then another one and now we’ve got 17 UDs at this stage and we’re looking at

buying a few more,” Galati says.

“They’re great on fuel efficiency and for the horsepower they’ve got and for the tonnage we cart, they’re really good. Probably the best in the market that I’ve seen.”

It was a bonus for Galati that the drivers enjoy driving the UD Trucks daily.

“The air-conditioning, the driving, the way they steer, the way they handle the road – they’re really happy with the trucks. I tell some of my drivers that they should be paying me for driving these trucks,”

Galati says. When asked about the UD Trucks Lap of the Map, Galati supported the initiative.

“I reckon it’s a good idea. A lot of people don’t see the UDs unless they drive them. So, it’s good for people to see the product and to promote it out there,” Galati says.

“You’ve got a good product and you’ve got to show the guys in transport what you’ve got. I’m pretty fussy with my trucks and because I’m an owner operator, I look at the efficiency, and with UD it’s swung me around.”

The Volvo Electric FL is helping Australia Post to deliver the mail in Queensland

Australia Post has taken delivery of its first Volvo electric vehicle, as the parcel logistics giant continues its sustainability drive.

Volvo Trucks has announced that Australia Post has received the very first Volvo electric truck in the country.

Part of a six-month trial, the Electric FL utilises four batteries to achieve an energy capacity of 266 kWh. The Volvo has a range of up to 300 kilometres depending on application and the payload is up to 5,500kg. The electric driveline provides 425Nm of torque, which is delivered to the rear wheels via a 2-speed automated transmission.

Electric FL maintains a full suite of active safety systems including Autonomous Emergency Braking.

The Electric FL also achieves the rigorous Swedish BOF10 crash rating which surpasses current European crash test standards.

“It’s very rewarding seeing these vehicles go into service after so much hard work ensuring they are the right fit for both our market and the applications they are being put into,” Volvo Group Australia E-mobility manager Tim Camilleri says.

“These vehicles are proving themselves day in and day out around the globe.

“We don’t experiment on our customers; we work with them to deliver the right zero emissions outcome for their business and that means advising on utilisation and charging as well. In this case the FL Electric is an excellent fit for Australia Post.”

Australia Post Divisional general manager (south) James Dixon says this trial demonstrates Australia Post’s commitment to innovation and sustainability.

“We have worked hard to help reduce our carbon emissions over the past decade, including by adopting low and zero emission vehicles where possible with the largest fleet of electric delivery vehicles in Australia,” Dixon says.

“The truck has been in service for a couple of months now and is performing well.

“We will continue to push electric vehicles into our fleet where we can

to help reduce emissions wherever we can.”

Volvo Trucks Australia has had medium duty battery electric trucks operating successfully in Australia since mid-2021.

With the assistance of the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator and Transport and Main Roads QLD, Volvo Trucks Australia has recently been given the green light to begin local validation of heavyduty electric trucks on Queensland roads at weights of up to 42,500kg.

These vehicles will have the latest heavy vehicle safety features such as lane keeping assist, blind spot detection, passenger corner camera, dynamic steering with stability assist, underrun protection, collision warning with emergency brake and electronically controlled brake systems.

The Volvo FL Electric is based at Australia Post’s Redbank Plains Distribution Centre on the outskirts of Brisbane.

A Mack Anthem ready to get to work for Remondis Waste and Recycling

Waste giant sings to a new anthem South-East Queensland’s highways will be a hot spot for Mack Anthem spotters this year as Remondis update their waste and recycling fleet Waste and recycling experts Remondis Australia have continued their long-standing relationship with Volvo Group Australia with plans to update their current Mack Tridents with the Mack Anthem model.

Remondis trucks are a common sight on Australia’s roads, as the company’s rapidly growing fleet of more than 560 heavy vehicles haul thousands of tonnes of recyclable materials to processing plants and non-recyclable waste to disposal sites every year. Southeast Queensland is no exception.

“We’ve got 16 Tridents from 2014 and two Anthems from 2021,” Remondis Swanbank Renewable Energy and Waste Management Facility Resource Recovery manager Sarah Collins says.

“They’ve been the backbone of our local fleet for nine years but we work them pretty hard, so we’ve decided to start replacing them with Anthems before we wear them out.”

Vice president of Mack Trucks Australia Tom Chapman says the Mack Anthem is a natural and exciting progression for Remondis

in renewing and improving the efficiencies of their fleet.

“The Mack Anthem has built a strong reputation for itself in terms of fuel-efficiency. Paired with mDRIVEHD with deep reduction gears, the benefits are compounding in applications such as this one where controlled manoeuvrability on sometimes uneven, steep or low traction surfaces is critical,” he says.

“For us, success is really forged in the strong relationships we build with our customers. Remondis performs the waste removal functions of both our factory and head office operations at Volvo Group Australia, so there’s great trust in the partnership and it swings both ways.”

The trucks travel between the Swanbank site and transfer stations at Rocklea and Northgate, making up to six trips a day, five-and-a-half days a week.

Averaging about 60,000 kilometres a year, the Macks are hauling single trailer and B-Double payloads in side-tippers, with net weights approaching 36 tonnes.

“The fleet is NHVAS Mass and Maintenance Accredited and is

enrolled in IAP so that we can operate Higher Mass Limits (HML), so we’re maximising our payloads on every trip,” Collins says.

Commercial customers bring loads of waste to the transfer stations, where they’re compacted and loaded onto the trucks.

“At the transfer stations the trucks drive into the loading tunnel at the end of the pit and we drop the compacted waste into the tippers.

We have a weighbridge in the tunnel and another on the way out to ensure our loads comply with approved axle mass limits,” Collins says.

This kind of efficiency in loading is matched at the other end at Swanbank, where the Macks manoeuvre to the edge of the landfill and simply open up the side-tippers to empty them.

As the trucks do most of their travelling on the motorway, the real issue is getting the trailers up to the top of the disposal site.

As the trucks only do day trips, the Anthems aren’t fitted with sleeper cabs, but VGA spared nothing that could make the drivers more comfortable and safe in the fit-out, including the inclusion of Mack’s Full Safety Pack.

“Our drivers spend a lot of time in them and VGA delivered a complete product, fully outfitted. Our drivers are really chuffed with the new Anthems and are happy we’re buying more of them,” Collins says.

With five scheduled for delivery in 2023, the Mack Anthems will soon be a familiar sight on the highway.

“We’ve been using Volvo Group products in South-East Queensland for more than 20 years now and they’ve proven to be reliable and an ideal fit for the task,” Collins says.

“We’re looking forward to bringing the rest of the new Anthems into the local fleet and enjoying the continued support of Volvo Group Australia.

The Cummins X10 engine

Cummins announces X10 engine Cummins has announced its next member of its diesel engine range to be released in 2026 Global brand Cummins has announced it will launch the next engine in its fuel-agnostic series in the X10 in North America in 2026.

The engine will be the next part of the X engine family and is set to replace the L9 and the X12 in terms of its versatility over the medium and heavy-duty markets.

Cummins says the X10 will be compliant with US 2027 regulations a year early, with the diesel version to be made first available before other versions are released later.

This 10-litre versions fits into Cummins’ product portfolio alongside the B6.7 and the X15 models and can be used in the transit, regional haul and delivery sectors.

“We’re committed to advancing diesel technology while our markets and customers need it to run their businesses,” Cummins North America on-highway executive director Jose Samperio says.

“The new X10 has been designed drawing on our decades of experience as a leader in the medium and heavy-duty space.

“We’ve applied those learnings to ensure the product will perform for our customers and the important jobs they need to do every time.”

Cummins says the X10 is extremely versatile, with its diesel version likely to remain a critical technology for the market for years to come.

The engine will become globally available after first launching in Europe and North America.

The X10 will fit with many different types of transmissions and the X10 diesel will emit 75 per cent less emissions than legally allowed by its launch in 2026.

Software for safer trucking Netstar Technology says its software and hardware range provides many benefits for both drivers and fleet managers The 2022 Major Crash Investigation report released by the National Transport Insurance’s National Truck Accident Research Centre has revealed that human factors, such as fatigue, distractions and incorrect equipment operation, are significant causes of nearly two out of three serious crashes.

In mind of these statistics, Netstar Technology says there is an urgent need to implement strategic interventions, such as integrated technology, to mitigate risk and promote safety on our roads.

As an industry leader in developing innovative and reliable vehicle tracking technologies to improve road safety Netstar says there are solutions designed to reduce vehicle accidents by facilitating better driving practices and real-time visibility into traffic conditions.

Netstar’s software and hardware solutions include safety features such as driver behaviour reporting, speed alerting and high impact alerting.

Their system complements existing vehicle technology such as collision detection systems that alert drivers when a crash is imminent.

Tracking technologies provide proactive alerts for drivers, including speed limit notifications, driver fatigue warnings and advanced analytics for fleet management to work with.

Tracking options allow fleet managers to plan efficient routes, assisting drivers to reach their destinations faster, without speeding, by avoiding traffic congestion or hazardous road conditions.

Netstar says its solutions provide fleet managers with peace of mind by arming them with the expertise to respond quickly in the case of an emergency too.

Through real-time data analysis capabilities, Netstar solutions offer fleet managers the timely insights they need to make informed decisions in a matter of moments.

It also uses telematics data to identify potentially dangerous situations such as sudden acceleration, hard braking, harsh cornering and excessive idling.

These data points help fleet managers identify unsafe driving patterns, allowing them to take corrective action and training.

Hino’s hybrid electric range Hino Australia expects its new range of hybrid electric products to arrive halfway through this year Hino Australia says its customers now have even more choice with a range of Hybrid Electric Built to Go products available in Hino dealerships from July 2023.

“Rising fuel prices and an increased focus from customers wanting to minimise their environmental impact has seen sales of Australia’s only Hybrid Electric light-duty truck soar,” Hino Australia department manager – product strategy Daniel Petrovski says.

“The introduction of the new Alloy Tray and TradeAce Built to Go models to our Hybrid Electric range offers customers a high quality, cost effective and versatile drive-away solution that can reduce business operating costs from day one.

“Not only do our Hybrid Electric models meet Euro 6 exhaust emissions standards, but recent realworld trials comparing the proven Hino Hybrid Electric truck against a traditional diesel equivalent revealed a 22 per cent reduction in fuel use and CO2 emissions.”

Greater savings are achievable

depending on the application of the vehicle and how it is driven.

Hybrid Electric customers also benefit from a reduction in maintenance costs as the electric motor replaces the diesel engine’s starter motor and alternator and the regenerative braking reduces the use of service brakes and increases the life of the brakes, all while charging the Hybrid batteries.

“Hino 300 Series Hybrid customers can reduce yearly maintenance costs by up to 16 per cent,” Petrovski says.

The Hino 300 Series Built to Go Hybrid Electric TradeAce models are fitted with a Hino Genuine aluminium tray, ladder racks and a Hino Genuine premium Bullbar (Wide Cab) or nudge bar (Standard Cab).

The 300 Series Alloy Tray range features the same base aluminium tray body specification as the TradeAce models but without the ladder racks and nudge/bull bar.

The 300 Series Hybrid Electric Built to Go range includes the 616 Standard and Wide Cab 4.5 tonne

GVM car-licenced models through to the 716 Wide Cab with a 6.5 tonne GVM. The Hybrid system uses a lightweight Power Control Unit (PCU) that encompasses the battery, inverter, Engine Control Unit (ECU) and DC-DC Converter The Hino N04C-WR four cylinder common-rail injected turbo-diesel engine produces 150hp (110kW) and 470Nm of torque, which is delivered in combination with the electric motor, with maximum torque available at a very low 1200rpm.

“The new Hybrid Electric Built to Go models will be of particular appeal to tradespeople and small business operators who are seeking a versatile drive-away solution that can reduce operating costs from day one,” Petrovski says.

Like all Hybrid Electric models, the new Built to Go models will feature Hino SmartSafe, a comprehensive safety package with advanced driver-assist technology that takes an active focus in protecting the lives of all road users.

Isuzu unveils its next generation of small and medium trucks The look and feel of Isuzu’s light and medium trucks of the future has been revealed at the international launch of its next generation range in Japan.

Isuzu Motors Limited (IML) showcased the all-new light and medium-duty truck ranges as part of its Accelerate the Future of Transport presentation on March 7 which also included the introduction of the brand’s first factory-produced Zero-Emission Vehicle (ZEV), the ELF EV. Launched under IML’s ‘Choose your future’ banner, the new light and medium-duty product range aims to serve distinct distributor markets with a line-up of mixed product technology to address localised market demand, regulation compliance and geographic preferences.

Isuzu Australia managing director and CEO Takeo Shindo says the

launch was an important moment for Isuzu globally and in Australia.

“This next generation of product defines the path for the continued success of Isuzu around the world for the foreseeable future.

“The model-life for commercial vehicles is two to three times that of private or passenger vehicles.

“This release of all-new internal combustion and zero emission trucks is a landmark event, evolving the brand focus of reliability to now also encapsulate creativity and innovation.

“It provides Isuzu truck customers around the world, with a product suite to support their business today, tomorrow and well into the future,” he said.

The next generation of new light and medium-duty Isuzu truck models are scheduled for local release in Australia, in-line with updates to local Australian Design Rules (ADRs) for vehicle safety and emission standards.

New product launch showcase The next generation of Isuzu light and medium-duty product encapsulates key elements of change from an all-new cabin design, through to industry-first safety technology upgrades and new powertrain technology across the line-up: Safety Evolving from the existing Advanced

Driver Assistance System (ADAS) currently applied to new N and F Series products in Australia, Isuzu’s newly launched safety suite now includes multiple drive assist features that have been integrated in a push towards dramatically reducing the risk of an incident on the road.

Design Striking new exterior and interior design has been deployed across the range with a focus on innovation and functionality.

An all-new interior layout expresses a sense of familiarity with previous interiors, while evolving and updating driver-centric key features and overall ease of use.

Cabin Accommodating drivers and environments around the world, space surrounding the driver’s position has been greatly expanded for driver comfort and fatigue management.

Operating pedals and a range of other touchpoints within the cabin

have been optimised to provide an enhanced driving experience.

Transmission A feature of the new product line-up is the development of new transmission options across the range. For customers this will build upon the dependability and fit-forpurpose nature of the current transmission options across Isuzu N and F Series Trucks.

Isuzu Australia Limited recently launched the latest iterations of the forerunner to the new model, the MY21 N and MY22 F Series models, complete with comprehensive safety features, technology enhancements and a new benchmark in aftermarket support with 6-year warranty and roadside assist fo light and mediumduty models used in standard applications.

The company also marked its 34th consecutive year of local Australian market leadership at the close of 2022 with record volume growth and total market share.

“IAL continues to build on the

strengths of our success in the local market and we are keenly aware of the product attributes that our customers rely on daily in the course of their businesses,” IAL CEO and director Andrew Harbison says.

“Ensuring that this is encapsulated in every product and service that we develop and bring to market is critical to this record and we are confident that this new product announcement represents the next assured step in our continued journey.”

According to recent road freight projections by the Bureau of Infrastructure, Transport and Regional Economics (BITRE) while total domestic freight in Australia is forecast to grow by 26 per cent to 2050, road freight is set to increase by a much larger 77 per cent over the same period.

“With the converging lines of increased road freight demand and the requirement for ZEV, we see it as essential that we have a product portfolio that our customers can utilise to meet their immediate and near-term road transport needs and have certainty that their capital equipment providers have solutions for their business operations into the future decades,” Harbison says.

Targeted product answering industry needs “The Isuzu Elf EV is the culmination of intense research and development by Isuzu in Japan.

“In its first iteration, this battery electric Isuzu truck is targeted at the built-up environment, fulfilling last-mile distribution duties. It will have an immediate and obvious impact in reducing urban transport emissions and contributing to greater quality of life through reduced noise and safety features protecting both the operator and public.

“What our customers can expect, when this new model is announced for the Australian market, is the same compelling operator and business case they rely on Isuzu to provide.

“We look forward to setting out on this journey with our Australian customers,” Harbison says.

Volvo’s electric range now stretches to six sizes

Volvo leads electric market Sales of electric Volvo Trucks continue to rise in key markets Heavy vehicle brand Volvo says its global electric truck sales make it the market leader in both Europe and North America.

Volvo says the number of heavy electric trucks operating in those regions grew faster than ever before in the past year and Volvo has now sold more than 4,300 electric models globally in more than 38 countries.

In Europe, Volvo Trucks says it has a 32 per cent share of the market for heavy electric trucks while in North America nearly half of all heavy electric trucks registered in 2022 came from Volvo.

“We’re determined to lead the electric truck transformation and our market leading position in 2022, not only in Europe, but also in North America and other markets, is proof that we’re doing just that,” Volvo Trucks president Roger Alm says.

“Although the market for electric trucks is still small, the trend is clear: many of our customers are now starting their own shift to electric.

“We intend to be the catalyst for this transition and aim for 50 per cent of our global sales of new trucks to be electric in 2030.”

Since Volvo started producing electric trucks in 2019, it says it has developed a broad product line-up with six vehicles in series production.

“We now have a product portfolio that can cover most types of transportation for all kinds of customers,” Alm says.

“Looking at the goods flow patterns, it’s possible to electrify nearly half of all transports with our line-up of electric trucks.

“We see it as our mission to support our customers in making that happen.”

Vegetable powered mining BP and BHP are trialling a new form of diesel in the Pilbara BHP’s mining equipment is about to go on a vegetable diet, all in the name of a greener future.

The sustainability push will involve feeding the mine’s equipment a new blend of hydrogenated vegetable oil (HVO) and diesel as part of a collaboration with fuel giant, BP. The new fuel trial is designed to help BHP to reduce the carbon emissions from its iron ore operations in the state.

During the trial, BP will supply BHP with the blended diesel, starting with a 20 per cent HVO blend and increasing up to a 50 per cent HVO blend.

The fuel company says trial group includes a selection of haul trucks, dozers and an excavator at BHP’s Yandi mine in WA’s Pilbara region.

“BP’s ambition to be net zero by 2050 or sooner recognises the crucial role we have to work with our customers and partners to meet their decarbonisation needs,” BP Australia president Frederic Baudry says.

BP says HVO blended diesel is a part of the transition to decarbonisation both BP and BHP are committed to.

“Globally, BP plans to increase its

investment in low carbon energy.

Forging strategic partnerships with companies like BHP enables BP to create solutions that satisfy the increasing demand for lower carbon fuels in sectors like mining and transport,” Baudry says.

“These sectors drive significant economic activity and depend on BP for its fuel and energy needs.

“This partnership follows BP’s recent commitment to being the major partner and operator of the Australian Renewable Energy Hub in the Pilbara, which has the potential to be one of the largest renewable and green energy hubs in the world.”

BHP Western Australia Iron Ore (WAIO) asset president Brandon Craig says the trial is an exciting moment for the company.

“About 40 per cent of BHP’s operational greenhouse gas emissions come from using diesel fuel, and this is a core focus of our decarbonisation strategy,” Craig says.

“This collaboration with the teams at Yandi and BP is really exciting to see, given the potential application in our WAIO business and BHP’s operations globally.”

Diagnostics: Open Road

Using data for good will make our industry safer and more viable The idea of telematics - where systems gather heavy vehicle data like location, driver behaviour, engine diagnostics and vehicle activity to help fleet operators manage their resources - has been around since the late 1970s.

In practical terms, it took off with the rapid expansion of the internet from the mid-‘90s and has been widely adopted over the last decade.

NatRoad has partnered with Teletrac Navman to promote the adoption of telematics by members across Australia.

You have heard of the “Internet of Things”? It’s a term for any technology that turns an everyday object into something that measures and transmits data.

Welcome to the “Internet of Things that Move”.

Now, geeks will put a label on anything these days. They’re really talking about location tracking and driver and equipment operator monitoring, including engine and driver hours, all working together.

There is no doubt that telematics data can improve safety, efficiency and productivity.

It can reduce fuel costs (through things like route planning), warn managers about mechanical faults

Warren Clark, CEO of the National Road Transport Association

and make preventative maintenance simpler.

It’s where its potential use of telematics by regulators and enforcement authorities is discussed that we get into vigorous debate.

In a recent submission to the regulator, NatRoad said the recent growth of the national land freight task, labour shortages and significant weather events all present significant challenges to the industry.

The widespread adoption of telematics will make it easier to deal with them.

But any adoption of technology needs to be done transparently, with the consent of all involved and with ongoing acceptance.

Contrary to what some may think, our industry is not resistant to change. It’s regulations that are poorly considered, cost a lot to comply with or have unintended consequences that raise the hackles.

Plenty of operators have embraced telematics and are using the technology to improve their business operations.

Once you bring government agencies into the mix, however, fundamental trust issues arise.

Our industry generally accepts the need for standards and for poor operators to be dealt with, but the punishment must always fit the crime.

Too many drivers have fallen foul of a cop or technical inspector who’s having a bad day, or who has an axe to grind.

Let’s be realistic. We live in a society where things that we took for granted a few years ago are now powered by digital technology.

Data is King.

There’s a clear push towards a national system of access approvals where operators will be cleared to operate over specific freight routes, as is already the case in Tasmania.

Data will inevitably be a huge part of that system.

Some will view that with suspicion and question its potential use. Those concerns are understandable.

So let’s get the rules right from the outset and be up-front about them.

There’s a lot at stake and some hefty upsides if we get the system right.

Spotlight on safety The NHVR has released its Heavy Vehicle Safety Strategy Action Plan A renewed focus on key elements of safety form part of the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator’s (NHVR) action plan for 2023 which aims to reduce the incidence of serious truck accidents.

The 2023 Heavy Vehicle Safety Strategy Action Plan supports the delivery of the NHVR’s Heavy Vehicle Safety Strategy 2021-25, which outlines the regulator’s ambitions for achieving better heavy vehicle safety outcomes and reducing the number and seriousness of crashes involving heavy vehicles.

NHVR CEO Sal Petroccitto says the 2023 Action Plan will deliver initiatives addressing safety risks identified through feedback from the regulator’s partners and the analysis of operational data and research.

“All of the 2023 Action Plan’s deliverables are built on the theme of partnerships,” Petroccitto says.

“Through industry partnership and collaboration, the NHVR is committed to achieving better heavy vehicle safety outcomes and reducing the number and seriousness of crashes involving heavy vehicles.”

The Action Plan’s safety initiatives were refined in consultation with

the NHVR’s partners at the July 2022 Industry Reference Forum.

Partner feedback was central to determining the five broad actions to improve heavy vehicle safety.

These five actions are: 1. Delivering safer and tailored fatigue risk management outcomes; 2. Empowering industry to better manage safety in their business; 3. Delivering tailored regulatory interventions to drive positive safety change; 4. Influencing the regulatory framework to promote the adoption of safer, cleaner and more efficient vehicles and technologies; and 5. Providing input into government policy decisions that affect the safety and productivity of the heavy vehicle industry.

Each of the above actions contains multiple safety deliverables that will enable safer heavy vehicles and road safety for all road users.

Petroccitto says the Action Plan will help guide the NHVR to continue making strides for a safer heavy vehicle industry in 2023.

“After a busy 2022, this year we are focused on continuing to address

A key safety focus for the NHVR in 2023 is driver fatigue management

heavy vehicle safety risks,” he says.

“I want to thank our partners that provided valuable feedback to help shape the Action Plan and position us for a proactive and successful year to come.”

In 2021-22, the NHVR delivered several safety actions that have benefited industry, community and all road users, with highlights including: • Expanding availability of Electronic Work Diaries by approving use on multiple electronic devices • Delivered the 9-Step Safety Management System (SMS) Roadmap, making SMS guidance material more accessible • Conducted the Don’t #uck with a Truck campaign to target young learner (L) and provisional (P) licence holders • Supported delivery of new Design Rules for increased electronic stability controls and advanced emergency braking • Worked with road managers to expand the gazetted network for Performance Based Standards vehicles.

Road news

Flood repairs for Victorian roads Repairs that strengthen the roads and increase their lifespan are being rolled out as part of Victoria’s flood recovery project Vital work on north-south freight routes devastated by the Victorian floods is well underway.

In a statement this week Victoria’s Minister for Roads and Road Safety, Melissa Horne, says construction work is underway on major arterials including the Goulburn Valley Freeway, Hume Freeway, Shepparton Alternative Highway and Midland Highway in the state’s north-east.

“We’re continuing to deliver long-term repairs to our most badly damaged roads across the state following the devasting floods last year – ensuring motorists can keep moving safely and get to where they need to go,” Horne says.

Among the projects underway are major patching works on the Goulburn Valley Freeway between Seymour and Shepparton, which was forced to close in October last year due to flooding.

The works so have repaired the damage to the road and will improve the strength and lifespan of the road itself.

Minister Horne says the works will also allow the freeway to continue functioning as a key freight route for Victoria, forming part of a national freight corridor for good travelling between Melbourne and Brisbane, which also runs through the Goulburn Valley food bowl.

The State Government says more than 937 kilometres of flood recovery activities have been completed across Victoria since the floods, ranging from clearing debris and drainage to rebuilding and repair works and a further 119 kilometres of work is currently underway.

World-first laser technology is also being used to assess the condition of the damage to the roads from the floods to inform additional recovery projects state-wide and ensure safety for all road users.

Dubbo’s new bridge Work is under way on a new bridge across the Macquarie River in the regional New South Wales hub of Dubbo Upgrading the Newell Highway and easing access through Dubbo are key elements of a state and federal government transport plan that is expected to deliver a new bridge across the Macquarie River by late 2026.

The bridge forms part of more than $1 billion in upgrades along the Newell Highway that are expected to improve traffic efficiency and reduce congestion for locals, visitors and the freight industry and improve access across the Macquarie River floodplain during extreme weather events.

Early works on the project started in August 2022 with the Brisbane Street and Darling Street intersection works now nearing completion.

The New Dubbo Bridge is a $220.2 million investment, with major construction now starting. It is expected to be open to traffic by late 2026.

The federal government is providing $176.2 million for the bridge and the NSW government $44 million.

“There is something wonderful about watching a transformative project like this coming together and we know the people of Dubbo will stay engaged with this project every step of the way,” federal transport and infrastructure minister Catherine King says.

“Early work to prepare the site compound and fence the work area

Reinforced concrete girders will be part of a stronger bridge design for the New Dubbo Bridge across the Macquarie River

has been ongoing since December and we are now hitting a magical milestone in this vitally important project with the start of construction.”

King says crews are ready to start constructing the bridge’s permanent supports and 660-metre span.

Work will start with a drill rig that will bore holes into the bedrock beneath the Macquarie River to guide crews to drive steel tubes about 60 metres into the ground. From there, crews will construct the columns that will hold up the new bridge.

Former NSW regional transport and roads minister Sam Farraway said the build would help keep the state’s transport network moving.

“We’ve already built the new intersection of Brisbane and Darling streets that will improve traffic flow to the new bridge along River Street, which will be elevated above the floodplain. This is nearly completed and is set to open in coming weeks,” Farraway said.

“Once the 89 piles are installed, the first massive girders would be moved into place from late 2023.

“The bridge will use 123 reinforced concrete girders to provide the framework to hold the approximately 5000-tonne weight of the bridge deck. We will really see this work start to come together in early 2024.”

Road news Freight operators in Tasmania are set to benefit from $100 million worth of upgrades to bridges and roads

Big spend on Tassie freight A $100 million program to boost freight access in Tasmania has begun An extensive program of works will upgrade 11 bridges, build two new ones and improve 14 roads around Tasmania.

The works are part of the Freight Capacity Upgrade Program funded jointly by the federal and state governments to the tune of $80 million and $20 million respectively.

The program will increase the freight capacity of critical and regional freight routes throughout Tasmania by strengthening or replacing various bridges and improving sections of roads.

When completed, there will be an additional 224 kilometres of state roads approved for access by Higher Mass Limit vehicles which the governments’ say will greatly assist

freight operators in planning for the future and give them confidence to expand their operations.

It will also extend the lifespan of critical and regional freight routes throughout the state, improving access for operators of heavy vehicles and providing benefits for the state’s agriculture, resources and manufacturing industries.

Work has already started on several road strengthening projects and tenders closed in March for the first two bridge strengthening projects: Pipers River Bridge on Bridport Road in the state’s north-east and Ring River Bridge on the Murchison Highway on the west coast.

The federal government says an estimated 190 jobs will be created

during the construction phase of the program, with an Indigenous employment and supplier-use target of 4.5 per cent.

“The Federal Government is committed to improving road safety and freight efficiency and this investment will ease congested roads while also creating opportunities for Tasmanians,” Federal Transport Minister Catherine King says.

“Our funding, by helping continue this successful economic productivity initiative for the next five years, is key ensuring Tasmania’s road network is as safe and as efficient as possible.”

Tasmanian Transport Minister Michael Ferguson says the Freight Capacity Upgrade Program will do more than just ease accessibility for freight operators.

“The Freight Capacity Upgrade Program not only enhances the productivity of Tasmanian freight, but also increases efficiency and road safety,” Ferguson says.

“This investment in Tasmania great news for our community and will back local jobs while also supporting our freight industry.”

New design rules The latest Australian design rules for the Euro 6 and electric heavy vehicles are now available The Heavy Vehicle Industry Australia (HVIA) has announced that the latest Australian Design Rule (ADR) relating to Euro VI and electric heavy vehicles is now in place.

The HVIA says ADR 80/04, which adopts Euro VI and equivalent standards for heavy vehicles, has now been signed and can be accessed on the Federal Register of Legislation.

The new ADR will apply to newly approved M and N category vehicle models that have a GVM over 3.5 tonnes first supplied from November 1, 2024, and will also apply to all vehicle models supplied on or after November 1, 2025.

The Land Transport Emissions and Environment Branch of the Department

New design rules are coming into play to support the next generation of heavy vehicle engine styles

Arts suggests that ADR 80/04 allows electric trucks to operate at the same steer axle mass limits available to trucks complying with ADR 80/01 or later.

This provides a pathway for some electric heavy vehicles to comply with the new ADR. The HVIA also says the federal government is still considering the introduction of new ADRs that adopt Euro 6d for light vehicles alongside improved fuel quality standards that reduce aromatics in petrol.

This follows a report from the Department of Climate Change, Energy, Environment and Water late last year that evaluated a range of options to provide better fuel for cleaner vehicles, including the introduction of Euro 6d for all light vehicles.

Your truck is your workplace After road incidents claimed the lives of 17 workers in Victoria last year, WorkSafe is pleading with the industry to remain as safe as possible on the roads WorkSafe is urging Victorian employers, workers and the self-employed not to ignore the health and safety risks involved in work-related driving.

Road incidents tragically claimed the lives of 17 workers in Victoria last year, more than a quarter of the state’s total workplace fatality toll for 2022.

Most of those killed were workers who spent a majority of their time on the road, such as truck and delivery drivers, but several workers also died in incidents while driving between workplaces or appointments.

WorkSafe’s executive director of Health and Safety Narelle Beer says legal duties for both employers and workers extended to any vehicles used for work, regardless of the location or industry.

“Whenever a worker is on the road as part of their role, that vehicle is considered to be their workplace,” Beer says.

“This applies to any vehicle being used for the purpose of work, including personal vehicles, whether the worker

is being paid an allowance or not.

“This means that employers must ensure that the vehicle being used is safe and without risks to health and that drivers are appropriately licensed and trained, while workers must take reasonable care for their own health and safety and that of other road users.”

Also last year, at least 486 workers had a claim for compensation accepted after being injured due to a vehicle incident on the road in the course of their employment.

Beer says it’s crucial for employers to have systems in place to ensure that vehicles are adequately maintained, drivers are appropriately trained and risk factors are identified and properly managed.

“Speeding, drugs and alcohol, fatigue and technology use or other in-vehicle distractions are all things that should be considered,” she says.

“It’s also important to plan ahead to avoid any adverse road conditions which can increase the risk of serious injury or death.

“Employers should consult with workers on appropriate road safety policies, procedures and instructions.”

WorkSafe is taking a targeted, prevention-led approach that focuses on the highest risk sectors and hazards that are causing road transport fatalities and serious injuries.

Activities include strategic workplace visits and joint enforcement activity with WorkSafe’s regulatory partners and working closely with other road safety stakeholders to enable and motivate employers across all industries to improve safety outcomes.

Duty holders who fail to meet their obligations under the Occupational Health and Safety Act face potential prosecution and significant penalties, including fines and possible jail terms.

In June 2022, transport company Peter Stoitse Transport was convicted and fined $490,000 following the 2018 death of a milk tanker driver in a

rollover at Leongatha. A court found the company had failed to ensure their drivers were properly trained and failed to ensure their trucks were maintained in a safe condition.

In December 2021, the Royal Automobile Club of Victoria (RACV) was convicted and fined $475,000 following the death of a roadside assistance driver in a fatigue-related crash in 2018.

Since the start of 2019, 64 workers have died as a result of road transport incidents in Victoria.

The deaths of workers commuting to and from work are not included in the toll.

As part of its awareness campaign WorkSafe also released a video on YouTube featuring injured father and son Gary and Andrew ‘A J’ Sutton, both former truck drivers.

Gary Sutton was involved in a road accident that left him a quadriplegic when his son was eight years old.

AJ had always wanted to follow his dad into the trucking industry but 20 years after his father’s accident, he too was involved in a crash that left him with serious physical and mental injuries, including becoming

a quadriplegic after being thrown from his truck.

“I remember leaving the border at Albury and remembering nothing after that,” AJ says.

“I remember waking up two months later.”

Gary Sutton says he warned his son of the dangers of truck driving.

“I’ve always said it to him, he’s better off getting another trade than being in driving.

“If I had my life over again, and he had his, I wouldn’t let him do it.”

Worksafe says to manage workrelated vehicle risks employers should: • Ensure appropriate safe systems of work are in place and that these are regularly monitored, reviewed and, if necessary, revised.

• Ensure regular vehicle inspections, servicing and maintenance are undertaken by suitably competent persons in accordance with the manufacturer’s guide • Ensure pre-operations checks are conducted daily on essential components such as brakes, steering, tyres (including

pressure), indicators, suspension and to detect issues such as oil leaks; and that any defects are rectified by competent persons.

• Not allow untrained, unlicensed or inexperienced people to operate vehicles.

• Implement a system to ensure people are competent to conduct the work - this should include instructions, information about the work, mentoring and assessment, toolbox training and refresher training even for experienced employees.

• Establish appropriate rules and standards for safe road use (including speed limits for travel and manoeuvres) taking into account any load factor of a vehicle.

• Communicate all safety information to drivers and others (eg load information for those responsible for loading and driving vehicles) to enable them to perform their work in a way that is safe and without risks to health.

Aussies hit Nordic hydrogen market Australian hydrogen fuel cell technology will help to power the conversion to lower emission freight movements in the Nordic states from late 2023 Norwegian Hydrogen AS and Australian Hydrogen Fuel Cell Vehicle Manufacturer H2X Global Limited have joined forces in an ambitious plan to bring more hydrogen infrastructure and vehicles to the Nordic region by the end of this year.

In a positive step towards the decarbonisation of the region’s commercial transport fleets the two companies have released plans to collaborate on the supply of hydrogen and a range of Hydrogen Fuel Cell commercial vehicles.

The strategy is to build out fleets of hydrogen vehicles around hydrogen refuelling sites to begin the transition to a lower emissions future.

The aim of the partnership is to bring together all of the components of climate-friendly commercial transport into a single channel – including the production and purchase of green hydrogen, distribution, and hydrogen refuelling stations, as well as the supply and aftersales support of hydrogen vehicles.

Norwegian Hydrogen’s managing director for refuelling Per Oyvind Voie says the partnership makes sense.

“Trucks need refuelling stations – and refuelling stations need trucks. This makes the partnership between our two companies a

H2X Global is bringing hydrogen tech to the Norwegian market

perfect match.” H2X Global’s head of sales and marketing Bill Moss says the move to hydrogen and alternative fuels cannot come fast enough.

“The transition to net-zero carbon transport through hydrogen is vital to help eliminate the growing emissions from the transport sector,” Moss says.

“This sector accounts for 23 per cent of global energyrelated C02 emissions and is the fastest-growing contributor to climate change. Collaboration between hydrogen producers like Norwegian Hydrogen and a commercial vehicle manufacturer like H2X is crucial in the reduction of zero emissions, and offering fleet owners a good alternative.”

The memorandum of understanding announcement followed soon after H2X Global’s subsidiary H2X Gothenburg AB won a public tender for the supply of hydrogen vehicles in the 3.5t, 5t and 18t categories.

The first of those vehicles are expected to be in operation by the end of this year, with the full fleet to be active by the end of 2025.

H2X Global has operations in Australia, Malaysia, India and Europe.

Hydrogen powered tow trucks and garbage trucks are on the agenda as Hyzon Motors roll out hydrogen trucks in Australia

Hyzon’s green waste dream Hyzon Motors is focusing heavily on Australia as it plans to roll out its first hydrogen trucks In an article on The Age in March, hydrogen fuel-cell vehicle manufacturer Hyzon says it plans to tow cars and potentially provide garbage collection this year to shift emissions away from diesel vehicles.

It came after Hyzon Motors unveiled a new 27 tonne truck at its Noble Park headquarters in Melbourne.

“We’re making it very clear that we’ve got a product now, the first product that’s been designed locally, that’s ready to go into market,” Hyzon international president John Edgley told The Age. As one of the many start-up zeroemissions vehicle manufacturers, Hyzon Motors is out to prove that it can produce viable options in Australia.

The brand says its truck will go into commercial trials this year, with three already planned to go to an RACVowned towing company.

The US-based manufacturer also has contracts to deliver prime movers to New South Wales’s Coregas and to Queensland’s Ark Energy while also partnering with RACV on a new manufacturing facility at its Noble Park site.

Scania pushes a sustainable future

Lowering carbon emissions through new technologies and sustainable practices is a big part of Scania’s strategy for the future

Transport giant Scania has released its annual report highlighting its mission for a greener future and celebrating the year that was With a purpose of driving the shift towards a sustainable transport system, creating a world of mobility that is better for business, society and the environment, Scania makes no secret about its future direction.

Highlighting its key number from 2022 in its recently released annual report, the group reports 7,157 alternative fuels and electrified vehicles sold last year, out of a total sale of Scania products of 170,004 worldwide.

The business ended the year with 56,927 employees, 3,000 more than in 2021, and reported 97,420 tonnes of CO2 used, up slightly on 2021, but 44 per cent down on emissions recorded in 2015.

Highlights of 2022 included the testing of fully autonomous vehicles on public roads in Europe with HAVI Supply Chain using a vehicle to transport commercial goods between its logistics hubs.

The launch of the Super-based power train is another success recorded in the report. The new engine is achieving a fuel-saving

of up to eight per cent and a Scania truck powered by the new set up wone Germany’s renowned 1,000 Points comparative test and a 13-litre Super-based powertrain scooped the Green Truck award 2022.

For Scania buyers, the launch of the My Scania and Scania Driver digital platforms, launched at the IAA trade fair, offered personalised digital data access to all Scania services in one place.

The past 12 months saw an increase in the business’ development of the biogas powertrain and a focus on reducing the carbon hotspots within the manufacturing supply chain with a move towards 100 per cent green batteries, steel, aluminium and cast iron for European production.

Scania president and CEO Christian Levin says in his introduction to the report that 2022 presented plenty of challenges for Scania.

“2022 was a tough year for Scania.

Just as it looked as though the supply problems of the previous year were beginning to be resolved, a new wave

of economic and political turmoil swept over Europe and the rest of the world, with Russia’s invasion of Ukraine leading to an energy crisis and a spike in inflation and interest rates,” Levin says.

“As a result, our truck business was hit by a range of ongoing problems, from component shortages to a lack of drivers, causing disruption in our delivery flows to customers.”

Reflecting on the year that was, Levin says the business had some success.

“When I look back at what Scania has achieved this year, I see a company that lives not just by its words but through its actions,” Levin says.

“The pilot partnerships we have engaged in through the year to develop our BEV (battery electric vehicles) trucks are a great example of this.”

The Scania business includes trucks, buses and coaches, power solutions, service and financial services. It reported an operating income of 12,375 million Swedish Krona (1,763 million AUD).

Swedish miner’s electric charge No exhaust, quieter operation and safer working conditions have helped Swedish mining group Boliden to step down the path of electric trucks As the world moves toward a more sustainable future the pressure is on all industries to reduce carbon footprints and improve their environmental, social and governance (ESG) ratings to meet the expectations of their shareholders and financiers.

For mining, carbon dioxide is one of its biggest waste products, the result of running diesel trucks to cart massive volumes of dirt and material for processing.

With a target to reduce its carbon dioxide emissions by 40 per cent by 2030, Swedish mining company Boliden has turned to the idea of electrification in its bid to hit the target.

Its partner on part of that journey is Volvo Trucks, who are working alongside Boliden to tailor their electric truck solutions to an underground mining environment.

A new new agreement between Boliden and Volvo will see two heavy electric Volvo trucks trialled in Boliden’s Kankberg mine, outside Skellefteå in northern Sweden.

Boliden estimates that if all of the trucks working in the mine were to be electric, the CO2 emissions from the mine could be reduced by more

than 25 per cent. “This is an exciting collaboration in an environment with very tough demands; steep slopes, heavy loads and humid air that wears on the vehicles,” Volvo Trucks project manager Jessica Lindholm says.

“The collaboration with Boliden will give us valuable knowledge about the performance of electric trucks when driven underground and provide answers to questions about how the driveline and batteries are affected.

“Reduced carbon dioxide emissions for mining transport also means that we, indirectly, will reduce our own CO2 emissions, because the mining industry’s raw materials are used in our trucks.”

The first truck to serve the Kankberg mine, a Volvo FH Electric, will be used to transport rock bolts and other equipment into the mine and will be put into service in 2023.

Based on the experience with the first truck, another Volvo FH Electric will later be put into operation and used for underground transport of rock and ore.

Boliden project manager Dennis Forslund says the collaboration is

An underground truck with no exhaust fumes is a big win for Boliden

a move in the right direction for his business.

“We see the collaboration with Volvo as a fantastic opportunity to push the electric technology forward and at the same time learn how to adapt our operations for a transition to fossilfree underground transport,” Forslund says.

“A major benefit of the trucks is that they will contribute to a more sustainable mine, both in terms of emissions and also the working environment for our employees.

“In addition, the total amount of energy consumed in the mine will be lower as electric drive is more energy efficient than a diesel engine, and it is possible to capture the electricity regenerated during engine braking on downhill slopes.”

With a focus on exploration, mining, smelting and metal recycling, Boliden’s business stretches around the world where it has about 6000 employees and annual sales of around 85 billion Swedisk Krona (SEK) a year (about $12.3 billion AUD).

Sidings boost agricultural supply Safer and more efficient freight movements are on the horizon for Western Australia’s harvest season The Western Australian government has announced a groundbreaking start to its Agricultural Supply Chain Improvement (ASCI) program as it reaches its first major milestone.

A ceremony in Brookton celebrated the first of 11 rail siding upgrades getting underway to maximise grain tonnage able to be delivered to ports, as the $200 million project is set to enhance freight and supply chain capabilities.

Site works have begun in Brookton,

with the rail siding upgrades helping make freight transport safer and more efficient during bumper grain harvests.

This first package of the ASCI program is jointly funded by the WA and federal governments, with construction company Multiplant working on the project to connect to the Co-operative Bulk Handling (CBH) grain bin and avoid congestion.

CBH will also invest in rapid loading bins and elevators at all of the 11 rail

Moorebank Terminal takes shape The Moorebank Interstate Terminal has reached a milestone as the Moorebank Logistics Park begins construction The Federal Government has announced construction has officially started on the container handling facilities of the new Moorebank Interstate Terminal, a vital piece of Australia’s largest intermodal logistics precinct, the Moorebank Logistics Park (MLP).

With work to construct the container handling facilities underway, the interstate terminal remains on schedule to be operational early next year.

The MLP project is expected to support more than 1,300 jobs during construction and 6,800 ongoing jobs once operating at full capacity.

With the capacity to service 1,800-metre-long interstate trains, each moving approximately 1,500 tonnes of consumer goods, the terminal will become a major interchange point for freight along the east coast.

This will replace more than 100 B-double trucks per train trip, reducing

congestion on New South Wales’s roads while facilitating the expected increase in future Australian freight volumes.

With a site area of more than 240 hectares – equivalent in size to the Sydney CBD – the entire MLP will include: • the already operational dedicated rail link to Port Botany • the now underway interstate terminal, which will link Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane

siding upgrading sides to complete the project.

The sites include Broomehill, which is set to be the next area to begin construction in March, before Moora and Cranbrook will follow the remaining sites in Avon (Meenaar), Kellerberrin, Dowerin, Konnongorring, Ballidu, Mingenew and Perenjori North.

The first package of ASCI funds freight rail upgrades in the area.

WA transport minister Rita Saffioti says the works will help make the state’s agricultural industry, which contributes around $8 billion annually to the economy, more efficient.

“With WA’s recent run of recordbreaking grain harvests, it’s more important than ever to optimise the efficiency of our agricultural freight transport supply chains to manage the increase in product,” Saffioti says.

“As well as an economic boost, the ability to transport more grain by rail will improve community safety and decrease environmental emissions and road maintenance by reducing the need for road freight.”

• over 850,000 square metres of state-ofthe-art warehousing • links to key roads, including the M5 and M7.

The MLP will complement the progressive freight enhancements in the national network such as the additional capability brought online through Inland Rail, as well as terminals for Melbourne and Brisbane.

Federal transport minister Catherine King says the project will significantly enhance Australia’s supply chain resilience while reducing transport emissions and providing thousands of local jobs.

“The progress being made at Moorebank demonstrates our government’s commitment to supporting a more efficient, resilient and integrated transport and logistics supply chain, which is vital for many Australian businesses and the national economy,” King says.

“It will also support more competitive freight costs, reduce traffic congestion, increase road safety and deliver better environmental outcomes.

“This is yet another example of our government’s commitment to delivering the world-class infrastructure that will form the backbone of Australia’s future economy.”

Executive appointments Newly appointed Head of Aftersales at Isuzu, Brett Stewart

Isuzu’s new aftersales boss Long-term truck market leader Isuzu Australia Limited (IAL) has reaffirmed its customer-centric focus with the appointment of industry veteran Brett Stewart to the position of Head of Aftersales Isuzu’s former National Service Manager and National Service Technical Manager, Brett Stewart, has taken on a new role as Head of Aftersales.

Stewart, who has more than 30 years’ experience within a range of industry positions and more than 10 years with the Isuzu Trucks brand, will oversee the business’ customer facing elements of Parts and Service.

Stewart started out in the heavy vehicle industry in the mid-1990s as an apprentice mechanic for a leading car manufacturer.

With his apprenticeship complete he quickly found his way to the heavy

vehicle industry and has been involved ever since, working in retail and fleet transport workshops before stepping up to management.

Ben Lasry, IAL Head of Sales and Aftersales said Stewart’s unique experience at both ends of the spectrum made him an ideal choice for the crucial role of Head of Aftersales.

“Brett’s experience in the road transport industry stands as an extremely valuable asset to Isuzu and he was a natural choice for this senior position within IAL,” Lasry says.

“It’s no secret the Australian truck market has had a huge couple of years,

New big build boss The top job guiding Victoria’s Big Build project is changing hands There have been changes at the top of Victoria’s Big Build with director general of the Major Transport Infrastructure Authority Corey Hannett moving on to new challenges, to be replaced by Kevin Devlin.

Hannett has been in charge of the authority for the past eight years and overseen the removal of 50 level crossings, the construction of the Metro Tunnel and a $100 billion pipeline of transport projects across Victoria.

Devlin comes into the role from his current position as CEO of the Level Crossing Removal Project.

The two men worked closely together over the past eight years to deliver the Big Build project.

He started as director general in late March.

Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews says Hannett has led the department during a historic time.

“Since we were elected in 2014, Corey has led the historic Big Build program of works that has transformed the state and created tens of thousands of jobs,” Andrews says.

“Corey’s passion for the sustainability of the construction sector, and the safety of workers on the ground, have been hallmarks of his leadership and I thank him and wish him, and his family well for the future.”

with many additional trucks now on the road and operating across a range of applications.

“Isuzu sales topped 13,360 units in 2022, an increase of 34.8 per cent over the past 12 months, so we’ve identified the need to give this area of our business the boost required to meet the aftersales and support needs of our many customers.

“Having Brett in the seat instils a great deal of confidence and ultimately our customers will be the true beneficiaries of his knowledge and abilities.”

Stewart says he is looking forward to bringing his experience to all levels of Isuzu’s new-look aftersales ecosystem.

“I have been involved with the heavy vehicle industry all my working life and understand the needs of customers from a post-purchase point of view,” he says.

“It’s all about building customer relationships, which can last years and many vehicle purchases.

“Smashing sales records like Isuzu did in the past 12 months means significantly more customers to satisfy.

“Heading-up this new business structure is a huge opportunity personally and positions IAL well for continued success whilst addressing growing pain challenges and future proofing our expansive dealer network.”

Addressing these challenges, Lasry reaffirmed IAL’s focus on this area of the business from a customer viewpoint.

“With demand for uptime being at the strongest the industry has ever seen, our realignment ensures we have the very best people and structures in place,” he says.

“In both Brett’s appointment and the amalgamation of the aftersales teams, our dealer network will get the assistance it needs whilst aligning outcomes closely with Isuzu’s customer-first support philosophy.

“Complementing this overarching approach, we’ve also set up a standalone supply chain management division, providing better quality and more timely outcomes for the customer.”

Having worked in roles across the spectrum, from sweeping the floor as an apprentice mechanic to rebuilding engines and managing a transport fleet, Stewart says he’s looking forward to a fresh challenge.

“At the end of the day, if the wheels aren’t turning, our customers aren’t making money,” he says.

“I understand the need for good product, good people and outstanding relationships and that’s what Isuzu provides.”

WA driver training to put more young people into the construction industry The WA government is funding a new support program to help encourage young workers into the transport and construction industries A new driver’s licence training initiative is removing barriers for young people training in the building and construction industry as part of the Western Australian government’s efforts to get more workers into construction.

The Construction Training Fund’s $1.26 million Driver’s Licence Training Support Program gives students the opportunity to obtain a driver’s licence while ensuring apprentices entering the construction workforce are job ready.

A driver’s licence is a key requirement for many construction roles. Access to a driver’s licence was identified as a key barrier to apprenticeship employment for young people at the State Government’s 2021 Skills Summit.

The pilot program offers standard driver training and supervision to help participants gain a valid Western Australian driver’s licence.

In addition, specialised training for driving in a construction environment, such as towing, safe

management of vehicle loads, vehicle maintenance and driving in the sand will assist young people to develop awareness and skills in road safety and vehicle management.

The program complements the WA government’s $10 million Driver Access and Equity program, which helps disadvantaged drivers to get their licence, particularly in regional and remote areas.

The Driver’s Licence Training Support Program will be available to 120 students, with 18 students currently participating in the first cohort.

The initiative is open to Year 11 and 12 students in the Construction Training Fund Scholarship Program, to supplement their pre-apprenticeship training.

“The WA government is committed to giving apprentices every opportunity to succeed in their chosen profession and creating a pipeline of skilled workers now and into the future,” WA Premier Mark McGowan says.

“By helping construction industry

trainees to get their driver’s licence, we’re providing practical support that will remove barriers to employment while helping to boost the workforce.

“This important initiative is putting apprentices in the driver’s seat - ensuring they’re job ready when they complete their training.”

WA transport minister Rita Saffioti says providing a driver’s licence will open many doors for a young person wanting more education and training opportunities.

“This program complements our existing $10 million Driving Access and Equity Program, which is already delivering great outcomes in a number of regions across the state,” Saffioti says.

“Since the Driving Access and Equity Program began in the Kimberley and Pilbara regions roughly 12 months ago, hundreds of disadvantaged people have either received a driver’s licence or their learners permit and with program expanding into other regions, that number will continue to grow.”

Feature L to R – Nathan Chatfield (CMI Adelaide), Sam Suda (Hino Australia) and Craig Andersson (Sci Fleet Hino Gold Coast) at the Hino Dealer of the Year Awards.

CMI Adelaide tops the charts They must be doing something right at Hino at Regency Park in Adelaide to clock up two wins in a row as the brand’s Metropolitan Dealer of the Year A determined bunch of Hino dealers from throughout Australia gathered this month, in-person, to celebrate the group’s achievements from 2022.

Gone were the virtual awards ceremonies of the past few years, with face-to-face conversations back in, and the anxious wait for winners to be announced experienced live, rather than in a desk chair in front of a screen.

One of the biggest winners on the night came from an Adelaide dealership who took to the podium for the second year in a row.

“After a tumultuous few years, which saw last year’s event hosted virtually, it was important for our dealers to gather together and celebrate all of the achievements in 2022,” Hino president and CEO Sam Suda says.

“It is the second consecutive Dealer of the Year title for CMI Hino Adelaide, which is an amazing achievement,” he says.

Hino Adelaides GM Nathan Chatfield says the win comes down to the hard work of his team.

“We are a very proud, long term Hino dealer – Hino is in our blood and our DNA,” Chatfield says.

“The CMI Hino Adelaide team is such a wonderful group of people who work incredibly hard at everything they do, and this award is

a very fitting tribute to their efforts.”

CMI Hino Adelaide also won the Service Excellence Award and was a recipient of the prestigious President’s Award.

“The 2022 recipients of the President’s Award demonstrated excellence in all aspects of Parts, Sales and Service and I congratulate each dealership team for their efforts during 2022,” Suda says.

“My sincere thanks to all of the dealers in the Hino network for their efforts to deliver an exceptional experience to all Hino customers during 2022.

“Tonight was all about showing our gratitude to our dealer network, and the night was as prestigious as they come.

“Congratulations to those whose excellence has been recognised,” he concluded.

The Awards ceremony was hosted at the Intercontinental Brisbane on February 24 and attended by 260 guests.

On display at the awards was a replica of the Hino-sponsored #20 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, which will be raced by Team 18’s Scott Pye at the Thrifty Newcastle 500 on March 10-12, 2023, as part of Hino Australia’s long-standing partnership with Supercars Team 18.

A new report has found supply chain companies are falling short on setting emissions-reduction targets

Companies slow on emissions

Strong start for Lindsay Australia Lindsay Australia is tracking well as it ticks over the first half of the current financial year Australian transport and logistics supply company Lindsay Australia has announced its financial results for the first half of the 2023 financial year, reporting uplifts in revenue, profit and dividends.

Lindsay Australia’ half-year revenues of $337.4 million increased $63.5 million (up by 23.2 per cent) compared to the prior comparable period, leading to the growth of 36.2 per cent in underlying earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation to $42.8 million.

The strong revenue growth and favourable market conditions also boosted underlying profit before tax by $9.7 million, or 64.5 per cent from the first half of the 2022 financial year.

The company’s robust financial results have enabled the board to declare an interim unfranked dividend of 1.9 cents per ordinary share.

Lindsay says it ended the first half of this financial year with $36 million in cash driven by improved operating cash conversion and earnings, positioning the company to continue to expand and deliver on its growth objectives.

Lindsay Australia says it remains committed to its status as a leading essential services provider and a critical link within Australia’s food and agriculture sectors, delivering long-term value for its people, customers, community and shareholders.

A diverse business model has helped Lindsay Australia to deliver strong results for the first half of the 2023 financial year

It says safety remains its first priority as it strives to deliver bestin-class service to its customers.

The performance of all divisions surpassed prior year’s results, demonstrating the successful execution of Lindsay’s strategic goals and the resilience of its integrated and diversified business model.

“The group continues to deliver strong year-on-year growth despite headwinds from unfavourable weather, labour shortages and cost pressures,” Lindsay Australia CEO Kim Lindsay says.

“This highlights the successful implementation of Lindsay’s strategic objectives, the robustness of the group’s integrated and diverse business model and the dedication of our employees.

“Demand remains strong in transport, but we expect some softening of demand in the rural segment in second half of the financial year due to unfavourable weather. We are positioned well to continue to grow through greenfield expansions and strategic acquisitions in both the transport and rural sides of the business.”

A recent study by Microsoft and TCS suggests only a handful of public supply chain companies are releasing emissions reduction strategies Microsoft and global IT consultancy TCS say that 84 per cent of major firms around the world are yet to set science-based targets for supply chain emissions.

The study suggests companies are struggling to measure progress on reducing carbon impacts in the logistics and business world.

TCS and Microsoft partnered to research how supply chain data could measure the transition towards a net-zero ecosystem in the sector, with 400 public companies randomly selected to participate.

TCS and Microsoft say the study’s results are particularly important for Australian companies due to recent climate change regulation that came into effect last September in a bid to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 43 per cent below 2005 levels before 2030.

Yet the research shows that only 16 per cent of the participating companies publicly set science-based targets for operational carbon emissions, with only 11 per cent committing to carbon reduction targets in supply chains.

TCS Australia & New Zealand consulting director of managing practice Guy Ferrier says improving the quality of global supply chain data can help companies better measure their carbon footprint and set equivalent targets.

“Globally, Europe and specifically the UK are moving very quickly towards the new standard of supply chain. These regions will set the pace and lead globally, and it’s up to businesses in Australia and New Zealand to keep up to ensure they’re part of the global solution to what is truly a global problem,” Ferrier says.

“The only way to do this is through new tech and analytics expertise – both of which will become vital for firms looking to adapt and reduce supply chain emissions in a transparent and scientific way.”

Tanker driver training The National Bulk Tanker Association has launched a webbased training program focused on the obligations of transporting dangerous goods in tankers

Subsidy boost for Kimberley Both the WA and the federal governments are funding a subsidy scheme to reduce freight costs for businesses impacted by floods in Kimberley In a joint statement, the federal and Western Australian governments have announced a new freight subsidy scheme that aims to reduce freight costs for Kimberley businesses impacted by recent floods.

The funding will be shared through the Commonwealth-State Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangements (DRFA).

The new scheme, which will be backdated to January 1, 2023, will apply to the freight of essential supplies for businesses, not-forprofits and Aboriginal corporations in and out of the Kimberley, including transport of agricultural products.

The federal government says reducing freight costs for Kimberley businesses will support the viability of local businesses and industries and bolster the region’s ability to recover.

The subsidy will be calculated as the difference between pre-flood and post-flood freight costs and paid directly to freight operators.

There is also a subsidy available for businesses and infrequent freight receivers established on a per pallet rate.

Early assessments indicate demand for this program could potentially be close to $42 million.

Subsidies are available for operators working to bring freight to Western Australia’s flood damaged Kimberley region

The scheme, managed by the WA Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development, will be in place until a reliable freight pathway is in operation at Fitzroy Crossing.

“While the road network remains disrupted it’s important there is support for impacted businesses to ensure the viability of industries across the Kimberley, which is key to the region’s recovery,” WA Premier Mark McGowan says.

“Following consultation with various parts of industry and local governments and businesses we’ve developed this subsidies package that provides support and ensures that we can maintain logistics routes and help the region’s ability to recover from the event.”

Federal emergency management minister Murray Watt says: “It’s important for businesses to be able to secure their supply chains and return to normal operations as soon possible.

“It is vitally important for the recovery effort and the local economy that impacted businesses get back on their feet as soon as possible.”

A 12-module safety program available online to members of the transport industry involved in the bulk carrying of dangerous goods by tanker is now available.

The program is the brainchild of the National Bulk Tanker Association (NBTA) to share detailed information about the obligations of all personnel involved in the dangerous goods industry.

NBTA chairman Justin Keast says the program is aimed at drivers, loaders, supervisors, maintenance staff, and transport managers.

Keast says the dangerous goods industry is governed by strict rules and regulations that must be followed and that NBTA has spent the last 12 months developing an online program that is easy to use and interactive.

The 12 modules cover legal requirements, codes, placarding, safety equipment, procedures on the road, maintenance and Transport Emergency Response Plans.

The Safety program has been funded by the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator’s (NHVR) Heavy Vehicle Safety Initiative (HVSI), supported by the Australian Government and developed with experts from the NBTA and industry.

NBTA executive director Anthony Germanchev says the course is free for NBTA members and $149 for non-members.

NHVR CEO Sal Petroccitto said the Dangerous Goods Education Program will deliver tangible safety benefits for everyone involved in the road transport of dangerous goods.

“Congratulations to NBTA on releasing a practical resource that will raise awareness and provide helpful information on mitigating the risks of dangerous goods incidents across Australia,” Petroccitto says.

“This initiative will help drivers, operators, contractors, consignors, loaders and their supervisors and managers better understand their responsibilities when it comes to ensuring their own safety as well as the safety of the emergency response sector and wider community.”

Work is underway on a full review of dangerous goods transporting laws

Fines for back pay failure Dangerous goods code review Australia’s dangerous goods code is up for review and industry feedback has been called for The National Transport Commission (NTC) is about to conduct a full review of the Australian Dangerous Goods (ADG) code for the first time since 2007.

The news has been welcomed by the Heavy Vehicle Industry Association (HVIA) which says it is an important tool for operators involved in the land transport of dangerous substances.

The HVIA says the review aims to better align the ADG code with international practices, meaning there’ll be improved intermodal operations covering both road and rail.

The NTC has released two working group papers so far that focus on reviewing the classification of dangerous goods and other listings.

The papers are part of a series of topic-specific discussion papers, with the NTC to provide further opportunities to comment on the code during the course of this year.

The HVIA says future topics will include a review of chapters in the code specific to Australia, a summary of duties, a central register of legislative variations across states and territories that the public can access and improved processes for licences associated with the transport of dangerous goods.

The NTC is encouraging people interested in the working groups to register online at www.ntc.gov.au

The Fair Work Ombudsman has cracked down on an Adelaide transport company for ignoring a compliance notice The Fair Work Ombudsman says it has secured a total of $19,000 in penalties in court against an Adelaide freight transport company and its director for ignoring a fair work notice.

The Federal Circuit and Family Court has imposed a $16,000 penalty against BSH Transport Solutions, based in Regency Park, and a $3,000 penalty against the company’s sole director, Brenton Philip Smith.

The penalties were imposed in response to BSH Transport Solutions failing to comply with a compliance notice requiring it to back-pay entitlements to a full-time pay-roll manager it employed between January 2019 and May 2021.

The court also ordered the company to take the steps required by the compliance notice, including calculating and back-paying the worker’s outstanding entitlements in full, plus superannuation and interest.

Fair Work Ombudsman Sandra Parker says business operators that fail to act on compliance notices need to be aware they can face court-imposed penalties on top of having to back-pay workers.

“When compliance notices are not followed, we are prepared to take legal action to ensure workers receive their lawful entitlements,” Parker says. “Any employees with concerns about their pay or entitlements should contact us for free advice and assistance.”

The FWO investigated after

A transport operator who failed to act on a Fair Work Compliance notice copped fines on top of the cost of back pay for a former employee

receiving a request for assistance from the affected worker.

The compliance notice was issued in May 2021 after a Fair Work Inspector formed a belief that the worker was owed approximately $11,438 in personal and annual leave entitlements, owed under the Fair Work Act’s National Employment Standards.

In imposing the penalties, Judge Stewart Brown noted that it took a year after the compliance notice, and only for the FWO to commence legal action, for BSH Transport Solutions to make a partial back-payment to the worker and that more was still owed.

Judge Brown found there was a need to deter the company, and other employers, from similar future conduct, saying “the court needs to indicate that such non-compliance will be regarded as a serious matter”.

“Penalties must hurt so that others who are considering cutting corners, so far as the payment and protection of their employees are concerned, will be deterred from doing so,” Judge Brown says.

“It is important that employers recognise that compliance notices are significant and are thus encouraged to manage their business so that errors, including innocent ones, can be rectified quickly and cheaply for the benefit of both business and employee.”

Logistics boost for Cairns

Moving goods in and out of Far North Queensland just got a little easier

Moving goods in and out of Cairns just got a little easier with the opening of a multi-purpose logistics centre Trade in Far North Queensland is set to increase following the opening of the Regional Trade Distribution Centre in Cairns to create a logistics hub for produce in the region.

The Queensland government invested $10 million through the Jobs and Regional Growth Fund to deliver this facility for the Far North.

Located at the Cairns Airport freight precinct, the 2400-squaremetre facility houses large cold and freezer rooms, temperaturecontrolled spaces and ambient transit areas, with capacity for future expansion.

Operations will enable fresh produce including fish and crustaceans (live and frozen), avocadoes, mangoes, melons, citrus and blueberries to be seamlessly and safely exported to international markets, especially throughout Asia.

The Queensland government says the facility will boost aquacultural and agricultural produce export capacity, generate jobs and improve productivity throughout the industry supply chain.

It will also capitalise on Queensland’s global reputation as a leader in the production and processing of high-quality produce.

The Queensland government worked closely with Air Freight

Handling Services (AFHS) to support the development of the Cairns centre that will assist them and fresh food exporters in the region to recover from the significant business disruption caused by the pandemic.

During construction, the project supported more than 200 workers in a range of local trades across more than 40 companies, with further operational jobs and business opportunities to be generated now that the facility is up and running.

The distribution centre is Queensland’s second state-supported regional export hub, following the completion last year of the trade distribution facility in Toowoomba.

“This centre unlocks the economic potential of the food bowl that is Far North Queensland,” Queensland treasurer Cameron Dick says.

“The RTDC will become a vital piece of Queensland’s freight and export network, supporting the quick response to economic recovery and future growth in international demand for Queensland’s fresh produce.”

In 2021-22, Cairns Airport exported food and agricultural products valued at $40.4 million, with Dick saying the centre has the potential to push these numbers higher in the years ahead.

“Despite the disruptions of the past few years, in 2021-22 Queensland’s agriculture and food exports were valued at $10.7 billion, including air freight exports of food valued at $500 million,” Dick says.

“Every box of Queensland produce that flies out of Cairns in the hold of an aircraft is an opportunity to bring even more tourists in from both domestic and international markets.”

Member for Cairns Michael Healy says the distribution centre is a major milestone for the Far North Queensland area.

“With the Regional Trade Distribution Centre Cairns, we have a huge opportunity to showcase FNQ’s wonderful produce further than ever before,” Healy says.

“Queensland’s agricultural industries make a vital contribution to the lives of Queenslanders with the sector delivering more than $23 billion annually to the economy and supporting more than 370,000 jobs.

“The completion of this centre will not only boost freight access for Far North Queensland, giving confidence to local businesses and creating more local jobs, but this will also create additional revenue for airlines by increasing cargo.”

DB Schenker boosts e-fleet One of the world’s leading logistics businesses is pushing hard into a greener future with plans to be able to deliver emission-free in 124 cities across 24 countries by the end of this year Across land, sea and air DB Schenker has made a name for itself around the world as a leader in logistics.

With a mission to reduce its impact on the environment the business has been busy investing in electricpowered transport options including trucks and cargo bikes.

High on its list of investments is a contract with Swedish truck manufacturer Volta Trucks to purchase 150 of its Volta Zero models by the end of this year.

It follows the company’s trial of a Volta Zero truck in Paris in September 2022 and Volta’s move to set up a production line in Austria to mass produce their trucks.

The DB Schenker team were in Austria this week to see the progress on the factory and watch their Volta Zero Production Verification prototype being built. It will be one of the test trucks which the company will operate as part of a European field trial.

The fleet of trucks will transport goods from distribution hubs to the city centres and urban areas and part of the next phase of testing

with the Volta Zero operating in real distribution environments carrying full payloads.

DB Schenker has plans to run the test vehicles in 18 different cities across Europe and Scandinavia, including France, Germany, Spain, Italy, the Netherlands, Sweden and Norway.

Head of Land Transport at DB Schenker Europe Cyrille Bonjean says the tests are in line with the business’ strategy.

“Once again, DB Schenker is taking a pioneering role,” Bonjean says.

“As the market leader, we aspire to be the world’s number one provider of green logistics.

“We take responsibility for a reduction of emissions resulting from our fleet operations.

“The European field test of the Volta Zero Trucks is an important milestone for us and for Volta Trucks.

“The feedback of our drivers and carriers will be taken into account for the series production of the allelectric Volta Zero.

“With the on-boarding of the first 150 Volta Zero series production

DB Schenker has joined forces with Volta Trucks on its sustainability journey

vehicles later this year, we will be able to deliver emission-free with more than 330 eTrucks from 7.5t to 19t in 124 cities across 22 countries plus around 70 cargo bikes – an e-fleet unmatched in the freight forwarding market.”

Volta Trucks CEO Essa Al-Saleh says the contract with DB Schenker was exciting for the business and its staff.

“DB Schenker has joined us on the journey to decarbonisation, and they’ve been able to experience and see the many safety and environmental advantages that the Volta Zero will bring to their urban logistics, and making our cities safer and more sustainable.

“Meeting with them in Steyr and being able to show them the actual vehicle that they’ll be testing in its build phases brings the whole experience to life and is a significant step for all of us.”

Asian Pacific firm TMX Global is expanding its supply chain expertise into Europe

TMX Global expands After specialising in the Asia-Pacific, TMX Global will now help European supply chains, starting with London Supply chain consultancy TMX Global says it is expanding into the European market after appointing Gerry Power as the UK Head of Country.

TMX Global, founded in 2010, originates out of the Asia Pacific, with offices in Australia, Singapore, Vietnam, New Zealand, Thailand and Malaysia.

The new London office is located at One Kingdom Street, Paddington, where TMX will join tech giants Microsoft and Accor.

In 2021, TMX Global (formerly TM Insight) acquired Xact Solutions in a move that saw the consultancy double the size of its team and secure its position as the largest independent supply chain and business transformation firm in the Asia Pacific region.

The organisation’s clients include Coca-Cola Japan Bottlers Inc, UNIQLO, Australia Post, BMW, Asahi, and Australian supermarket giant Coles. As it kicks off its EMEA expansion, TMX Global is working with one of the UK’s most trusted brands and largest specialist clothing, beauty, home and food retailers.

“In the past few years, there’s been an increasing demand for strategic supply chain expertise around the world and as a result we’ve always had our sights on global expansion,” TMX Global co-founder and CEO Travis Erridge says.

“This entry into the EMEA market is a significant milestone for us, as we invest in full delivery teams and an office in central London. We’re also delighted to secure the appointment of Gerry Power to lead our expansion and consider this an exciting time to be part of TMX Global’s growth.

“We look forward to announcing more strategic hires as we strengthen our team on the ground throughout the region.”

Med tech Sydney expansion Device Technologies has combined with TMX to devise a state-of-the-art new distribution centre in Sydney Business Park In logistics news, an emerging medical technology company has committed to building a new custom-designed, state-of-the-art national distribution centre.

The new DC will be in Sydney Business Park, located in Marsden Park, allowing the company to base its operations, warehousing and logistics for Australia, New Zealand and Asia in one location.

Device Technologies says its 30-year growth has evolved from a garage on Sydney’s northern beaches to its current Belrose location, with the Marsden Park development to streamline logistics for the company.

“As a continually growing company, we remain committed to our customers in providing the best solutions to fit their needs, and ultimately to optimise patient outcomes,” Device Technologies CEO Michael Trevaskis says.

“This extends to our logistics, where we aim to make the order, supply, delivery and reverse logistics processes as streamlined as possible, creating more efficiencies for Australian healthcare customers.”

A rendering of the Device Technologies’ new distribution centre.

The DC is slated to be completed for late 2023.

Device Technologies partnered with Asia Pacific transformation consultancy TMX, who helped combine their end-to-end supply chain, property and project management expertise to the project.

“After our supply chain team completed a network strategy followed by a DC design, we procured this purpose-built asset on behalf of Device Technologies,” TMX director Jack Moroney says.

“All bespoke physical building attributes were encapsulated in our technical design brief, ensuring the optimum operational and commercial outcome for Device Technologies now and into the future.”

The Marsden Park DC will be located just off the M7 motorway, giving the company convenient access to Sydney’s road, rail and port network.

Freight legends recognised

The RFNSW annual conference and awards were well attended

The Road Freight Association of New South Wales has celebrated its brightest stars Top operators from a wide range of specialities within the road freight network have been recognised by their peers as winners of the 2023 Road Freight NSW (RFNSW) Excellence awards.

RFNSW CEO Simon O’Hara says the annual awards are a chance to highlight the quality of the people who help to make the road freight industry what it is today.

“These men and women are the ‘best of the best’ and all represent the very high standards of professionalism, productivity, leadership and an all-important commitment to road safety achieved across the trucking industry over the past 12 months,” O’Hara says.

RFNSW announced its award winners at an event in Cockle Bay in NSW, with former truck driver Senator Glenn Sterle as MC for the day and the Australian Trucking Association (ATA) on board as sponsors.

The 2023 winners and their history are captured below: Outstanding Contribution to the Industry John Preston, Alliance Transport.

As an industry veteran, John Preston has worked in the transport industry since 1985.

He has been part of the Container Sub Committee for ATA NSW and now RFNSW since 2014. RFNSW says Preston is committed to ensuring

that the container transport industry is given fair and equitable representation at all levels of policy making.

CEO’s Award Habib Francis, HSE Services.

Habib, as CEO and later COO of BagTrans for many years, is an example of the professionalism of a CEO in a tough industry. Francis now runs his own business, HSE Services, and provides expert advice to the industry.

Transport Woman of the Year Sally-ann Eather, Eather Group The Eather Group is now a multiaward winning and very successful business with a fleet of 18 heavy vehicle combinations and 14 pieces of heavy machinery.

RFNSW says Eather has been instrumental in driving and maintaining accreditation in the group’s ISO’s, NHVR Mass Management, Chain of Responsibility and is driving their journey toward becoming a certified B Corp. She has implemented training membership with NSW Institute of Civil Infrastructure, an Employee Assistance Program and is continually evolving internal programs to promote continued improvement and company culture, including an end-to-end digitisation transformation.

Professional Driver of the Year Jake Perrett, Carters Heavy Haulage & Transport Perrett is a heavy vehicle driver and mechanic. At the conclusion of his apprenticeship, and still only 21, Jake ventured into the world of the supply chain and logistics industry and joined Carter Heavy Haulage & Transport as a heavy haulage, heavy vehicle operator.

Safety Culture Award Andrea Hamilton Vaughan, Orange City & Cabonne Councils Vaughan is employed by Orange City and Cabonne Councils as their Road Safety Officer. She has demonstrated a serious dedication to her work involving road safety, not only in her local area but for all road users. Andrea’s role is primarily as an educator in the community with a focus on behavioural change programs to facilitate safer road user practices.

Emerging Leader Award Caitlin Barlow, JATEC Transport Barlow joined the industry in April 2022 and was hands-on from the get-go. Even though she joined in a management position, she went on the road with the drivers to better understand their role - even though it meant 2am starts.

Congratulations to all of the winners.

A work hours exemption has been put in place in northern Western Australia to help resupply the area after recent flooding

Fatigue exemption in WA Freight drivers supplying the flood-ridden Kimberley Region in Western Australia have been granted exemptions from fatigue rules until June this year The National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) has announced a new fatigue exemption notice to allow drivers to work varying hours to deliver supplies to flood-impacted northern Western Australia.

The NHVR has combined with Main Roads Western Australia and the South Australian Department for Infrastructure and Transport to deliver the new notice allowing drivers operating under the National Class 3 Supplementary Access (WA Assistance) Exemption Notice to legally operate under exemption work and rest hours instead of standard hours when transiting through South Australia.

NHVR CEO Sal Petroccitto says drivers working for an operator that holds current accreditation through WA Heavy Vehicle Accreditation (WAHVA) can use the new exemption notice when operating under the adjusted conditions.

“In addition to the WAHVA requirement, to use this fatigue exemption, drivers must be delivering goods from southern WA to the flood-affected Kimberley Region and have had a medical check in the past three years if aged 49 or younger, or in the past year if aged 50 or older,” Petroccitto says.

The NHVR has also recently extended the National Class 3 Supplementary Access (WA Assistance) Exemption Notice until June 30 this year.

“The extension of the notice is an important step in supporting the ongoing recovery efforts in the flood-affected regions in the north of WA by authorising the continued access of Class 3 heavy vehicles that are road trains up to 53.5m in length to a specified network from WA to SA,” Petroccitto says.

“We ask that drivers of these vehicles please remember that the roads on this route are not designed for these longer vehicles and to exercise particular caution and drive carefully when travelling to and from the affected regions.”

Regulator’s safety push Cutting corners on safety will be even more costly for operators after the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator’s recent success in Court The National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) has obtained two Commercial Benefits orders against two different companies who attempted to profit by cutting corners on safety.

Commercial Benefits orders can be sought by the NHVR under the Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL) to ensure industry is doing the right thing.

Any profit obtained through a breach of the HVNL can be recovered through this order in an amount up to three times greater than the profit received from the breach.

Types of offences that can result in the NHVR obtaining a commercial benefits order include breaches of mass or dimension requirements.

One of the two orders applied for by the NHVR involved a heavy vehicle that was intercepted and weighed at 120.6 per cent of the vehicle’s permissible mass.

The defendant was charged with one count of permitting a heavy vehicle to be driven while over mass – a severe risk breach.

Operators have been put on notice that breaching safety measures such as mass limits will be a costly affair

NHVR Director of Prosecutions Belinda Hughes says Commercial Benefits orders have been crucial in holding companies to account who are profiting from breaking the law.

“We’ve been asked what we’re doing for companies that are profiting from offending or jeopardising safety to get ahead financially,” Hughes says.

“Commercial Benefits orders are one way for us to address those concerns. No longer can a company benefit financially from offending.

These orders calculate how much profit was made through breaking the law and then recovers that amount.

“This means there is no financial benefit to offending – it’s not worth taking the risk.”

The NHVR says it’s significantly maturing in becoming a modern and intelligence-led regulator that focuses regulatory action towards those who pose the greatest risks to road users.

Safer roads for SA A horror start to the year on the roads in South Australia, with 11 deaths in January alone, has ramped up action on a new safety plan The South Australian government has gone to new measures to reduce deaths and serious injuries on the road as it targets dangerous road behaviour in its Road Safety Action Plan 2023-2025.

The SA government’s plan is a direct response to a tragic start to the year on the state’s roads, with consultation and feedback helping develop the plan.

Over the past decade, SA says it has improved its road safety outcomes, but 11 deaths in January exceeded the monthly average.

The Action Plan identifies measures that will contribute to a target of at least a 50 per cent reduction in lives lost and a 30 per cent reduction in serious injuries on South Australian roads by 2031.

Poor driving behaviours, including drink and drug driving, speeding, distraction and incorrect use of seatbelts in addition to dangerous road users, will be targeted.

A combination of approaches including enforcement, education and public awareness will be used to address dangerous driving behaviours.

South Australia’s Road Safety Action Plan 2023-2025 adopts the ‘Safe System’ approach to improve that state’s roads and encourage the uptake of safer vehicles and safe road user behaviour, particularly on regional roads.

The Action Plan will enable a focus on network safety planning that prioritises road safety infrastructure improvements and reduces risk to road users. This includes the $150 million Adelaide Hills productivity and safety package which the SA government says will deliver better road safety infrastructure in the region.

Road safety infrastructure and other measures for safer school precincts underscore the state government’s focus on improving safety around schools.

Improved outcomes for Aboriginal road users are also a focus, including better data collection and exploring opportunities to expand the successful On the Right Track (licensing) program.

The government has committed to an annual progress report based on 10 focus areas:

South Australia is focused on keeping the roads safe in areas such as the Adelaide Hills

1. Schools and local places 2. Public transport, cycling and walking 3. Motorcyclists 4. Aboriginal road users 5. Road user behaviour 6. Road safety in the workplace 7. Regional and remote areas 8. Heavy vehicles 9. Vehicles and technology 10. Research and data.

SA police, emergency services and correctional services minister Joe Szakacs says the plan is integral to the government’s aims of reducing deaths on SA roads.

“The Action Plan provides strong accountability through safety performance indicators and annual reporting to make sure that what we are doing is working to reduce deaths and serious injuries as a result of road trauma. We can achieve positive change by creating a safer road environment for all users,” Szakacs says.

“By working together, we can achieve positive change and create a safer road environment, which protects South Australia’s road users, including our most vulnerable road users.”

SGGS backs Mercedes-Benz with a massive order A Brisbane-based transport operator specialising in long hauls from the east to west coast and return has signed up to buy 120 Mercedes-Benz Actros trucks to boost its fleet SGGS Transport’s fleet will be tipping towards being majority MercedesBenz in the very near future as the first of a 120 trucks ordered as part of a record-breaking deal arrive in Brisbane.

96

DOW 491-047 ATNews.indd 96

The long-haul specialist operates a fleet of over 80 trucks now, including 37 Mercedes-Benz Actros and a number of tricked up Kenworth “show trucks”.

It’s latest addition to the fleet is a

2663 Actros model from Daimler Trucks Laverton loaded with the 630hp 16-litre engine.

The truck will get to work shortly pulling a quad trailer road train.

The first Actros joined the SGGS fleet back in 2018 and the team was impressed by its reliability, fuel efficiency as well as the full suite of active safety features.

“That truck has been great and the Actros just keeps getting better and better with each new model,” says SGGS general manager Adam Fraser.

“The fuel savings are excellent. It soon adds up when you do the kinds of distances that we cover,” he says.

Safety is paramount for SGGS and the company even has a dedicated safety team actively monitoring the data from its trucks, in real-time, 24hours a day.

SGGS owner Rajbeer Khangura says safety is something the company will not skimp on.

“We are 100 per cent committed to safety and our customers are onboard with this too,” he says.

30/3/2023 3:23 pm

Feature SGGS Transport like the Mercedes-Benz Actros so much they have ordered 120 trucks to be delivered over the next three years

“That’s why we like the safety features such as the autonomous emergency braking that come with the Actros. We want the safest equipment we can get,” he says.

Standard safety features of the Actros include the fifth generation radar/camera and the Advanced Emergency Braking System (AEBS) which can automatically perform full emergency braking to avoid vehicles and moving pedestrians.

The standard Active Brake Assist 5 package also includes Lane Departure

Warning System (LDWS) and Attention Assist (AA).

SGGS also decided to tick the box for the optional Predictive Powertrain Control fuel efficiency feature, which uses satellite data and terrain information to make the best and most economical gearbox control choices.

It knows when to coast in neutral and when to re-engage to maintain road-speed as well as when to hold a gear longer than normal, such as when the truck is approaching the top of a hill.

The SGGS story started in 2013, when Khangura began hauling with a single truck. He grew the business steadily and SGGS now has offices in Brisbane and Melbourne with plans for more in other key states.

It should come as no surprise that Khangura ended up in the world of trucks.

His father has run a successful truck fleet from more than 40 years out of Chandigarh, Punjab, delivering for customers all over India and passing on many lessons to his son.

Global market drives growth A trio of Iveco trucks are the latest additions to the fleet of long-term Melbourne removalists Palmers Relocations A boom in demand for shipping furniture overseas has prompted the latest upgrade to the fleet of Palmers Relocations.

With shipping containers the storage option of choice for packing and sending furniture to far away destinations, Palmers Relocations need trucks that are more than capable of handling the boxes for all manner of moves.

While their current fleet is predominantly ruled by Japanese brands, the company made the decision to go for a more European influence with its latest acquisitions, with Iveco winning the day.

The results was the purchase of a Stralis 360 ATi (360hp and 1,500Nm) 4x2 prime mover, X-WAY 360 (360hp and 1,650Nm) rigid and most recently, a Eurocargo ML160

A new Eurocargo ML160 rigid is the latest addition to the fleet

rigid with 280hp and 1000Nm of torque.

The Iveco trucks are primarily used to take containers to port, with the Stralis hauling 20 or 40-foot skel trailers while the rigids are set-up to carry a single 20 foot container and tow a pig trailer if required.

For ease of use, the trucks all feature automated manual transmissions which make them easier to manoeuvre and save on clutch wear in heavy traffic.

The trucks are just one part of a family business that has made a name for itself in a tough industry where customer service is paramount.

The company was founded by Greg

The Iveco models are well regarded for their comfort, torquey engines and fuel efficiency

The trucks are primarily used to take containers to port.

Palmer and his two brothers in the 1980s to focus on domestic removals.

Having grown up around the antique industry, the trio had developed an appreciation of the care required to protect fine furniture and collectibles – a skill that transferred into a solid foundation for their new business.

Several decades on, Palmer Relocations now employs over 100 staff, and operates 40 trucks from its Laverton, Melbourne site.

Company director and part owner Kieran O’Hara says although the business still offers local and domestic relocations, most of the company’s recent growth had been in global relocations, a service it began providing about five years ago.

“The move to extend our services to include an overseas offering has been extremely positive – we identified a niche in the market and focused on areas where we believed we could provide a better service than competitors, and we haven’t looked back,” Kieran says.

“A lot of the appeal in using Palmers Relocations is that we have an enduring presence in the industry and our employees view what they do as a career not just a job – our care and attention to detail is also second to none.

Palmers Relocations Business Director and part owner, Kieran O’Hara.

“Another benefit is that we offer complete solutions to customers by providing associated services to help them make the big move as easy and seamless as possible; these include storage solutions, transport and pet relocation, home cleaning, valet unpacking service, international money transfer and more.”

Kieran says he was keen to begin transitioning the fleet from Japanese trucks to Iveco to access the brand’s added refinement, comfort and safety benefits.

“The drivers and I really like the Iveco’s – the added comfort was immediately noticeable, yet the power is there, they have torquey engines, good weight distribution and are also great on fuel,” Kieran says.

“We also like the look of the trucks, they’re stylish and modern and help

present our business in a professional light.”

Despite experiencing some challenging times during COVID which restricted population movements and workflow, Kieran says they had retained all of its employees and was now eyeing further growth.

“We’re continuing on a steady growth path and exploring new opportunities, while maintaining the strong core values that have made the business successful for so many years,” he said.

“We look forward to more Iveco vehicles joining the fleet in the coming months, and are also very pleased to continue our strong relationship with selling dealer Adtrans.”

Most of the recent growth for the company has come from global relocations.

Feature Rob Toohey stands by his Isuzu Traypack

Traypack boosts cleaning business As well as making Rob Toohey’s 12-year-old pressure cleaning business more flexible and profitable, upgrading to a light truck gave his business the ‘wow’ factor Swapping his ute and trailer for an NLR 45-150 Traypack from Isuzu has proven to be a game changer for Perth man Rob Toohey.

Toohey, who has been cleaning up the city with his hot water high pressure cleaning business for more than a decade, says having all of his gear on one vehicle makes all the difference.

“I had a ute and a trailer before and it was a pain in the neck because someone would call me up and offer me a small job and I’d be thinking to myself, `well, that’s half an hour of work just to hook up and detach the trailer when I’m finished,’ and a lot of times I’d turn it down,” Toohey says.

“Now that I have everything in the truck, when anybody calls me up with a small job, I say, ‘yeah, I can be there in 15 minutes.’

“Boom, go do the job and come back and it’s brilliant.”

Rob’s truck is set up to handle the range of work he tackles every day including the cleaning of garbage bins, oil stains, and graffiti.

“It is partially having the right chemicals, but the equipment makes a huge difference because the hot

water increases the effectiveness of the chemical by about 25 per cent.

“The hot water makes a huge difference and most of my competitors don’t have hot water.”

Rob’s truck features a GVM of 4,500 kilograms and a GCM of 8,000 kilograms, and plenty of room on the factory tray to carry all of his gear.

“The truck carries the water, the hot water, the high-pressure equipment, every chemical I need…it carries everything!” he said.

“So now I’m totally self-sufficient.

“When I rock up to somebody’s house to clean an oil stain, for example, I don’t even need to tap into their water supplies.”

Originally from Greenwich, Connecticut (an hour from New York City), Rob moved to Australia after marrying an Australian. He set up his flexible “lifestyle” business in 2010 so he could spend time with his then school-aged son.

“The flexibility of the hours is what was important to me,” he says. “I wanted to make my own hours.”

After a bumpy start with the business, Rob landed his foundation client more than a decade ago, the City

of Cockburn, a local council about 20 kilometres from the centre of Perth.

“I clean about 3,000 bins a year for them,” he says.

“One of the reasons it works for me is because I go to Cockburn one or two days a month. It’s a lot of work in one day or two days, but it’s worth it.”

Rob also has a regular roster of commercial customers who need oil stains removed, including real estate agents, car dealers and cooking oil suppliers.

He also has regular and one-off residential customers who want their rubbish bins cleaned.

“Normally I never meet residential customers. But one day this guy was out cleaning his mailbox. I’d never seen him before. I pulled up to clean the bin and as I hop out of the truck he goes, `wow, that looks fantastic’.

“I said, ‘thank you very much’, because it does look fantastic. The truck, the whole setup, it just oozes professionalism. It impresses people because it looks so good.”

Rob’s son has finished school and is now a chef, but Rob still wants his pressure cleaning business to be a part-time venture.

I

t was late 2019. No one knew a global pandemic was just around the corner and at a high-level press conference on a sparkling spring day in Sydney, it was all good news coming from not just the top tier of Daimler Trucks North America but from the big corporate kahuna himself, Daimler Truck global supremo Martin Daum.

Obviously, it took something very special to bring to Sydney’s shores such a cluster of Daimler’s heavy hitters but more to the point, it signalled in no uncertain terms that Australia was on the corporate radar like never before. Cometh Cascadia, cometh an unmistakeable pledge that this time around, operational reality would prove to be significantly greater than corporate rhetoric.

From Herr Daum down, the overseas ‘heavies’ were resolute in pushing the message: Australia and New Zealand are valuable markets and Cascadia was the key to cracking a bigger stake because, quite simply, it was the truck that would finally allow our part of the world to feed from the same technological table as its North American counterpart. In effect, Cascadia would bring what its predecessors had never been able to deliver – a fast, direct line to the technical and mechanical developments of North America’s top selling heavyduty truck as they happen. Not only that, Cascadia’s conversion to our side of the road was emerging from the most comprehensive and costly test program ever undertaken by Freightliner for an export market.

From any angle, this was the start of a bigger, bolder, brighter future for Freightliner in Australia. A new era to finally put a stake through the heart of the hardships and disappointments of the last few decades.

No more patchwork product plans, no more interminable waiting for the US to apply an engineering fix to one problem after another, no more mediocre build quality, and with the bell finally tolling for the defunct Argosy

Freightliner obviously didn’t want anyone to miss the message. Despite a long 126 inch bumper to backof-cab length, Cascadia’s flagship will haul a 34 pallet B-double, complete with a 36 inch bunk and a bull bar

Testing times. Freightliner’s Stephen Downes during early Australian testing of Cascadia, long before the model’s launch here. The biggest issue now is a supply shortage. “Everything we get, we sell.”

and its Coronado stablemate, no more of Australia’s second-string status in the Freightliner fold.

It had all come down to this balmy, bullish day in Sydney, and that night the official launch of the truck which promised to carve an entirely new line in the Australian sand for a brand which had long promised so much yet, for any number of reasons, had largely failed to live up to the potential forged during the inspiring days of our first Freightliner, the indomitably durable FLC112.

But then came COVID-19 and suddenly, just as hype and hope were hitting the heights, the brakes went on. Hard!

Down under drama With the likely exception of Daimler Truck Australia chief Daniel Whitehead, it’d be difficult to imagine anyone more excited or hungrier for Cascadia’s Down Under debut than Freightliner’s local leader, Stephen Downes.

The former Paccar Australia manager had moved to Daimler at the start of 2015 knowing full well that some time down the track, Cascadia would take its place here.

It may, however, have taken longer than expected but during the extensive product planning and testing processes preceding the new truck’s local debut, Whitehead and Downes were equally adamant there would be no shortcuts in ensuring that Cascadia did not suffer the fundamental foibles of its

predecessors. Simply stated, Freightliner’s reputation could not afford those mistakes again and as rumour has it, they didn’t defer from reminding their American colleagues of that one cold, hard fact.

Even so, and especially given the early fervour of Cascadia’s launch, it has also taken much longer than expected for the opportunity to slip behind the wheel of Cascadia’s flagship 126 model.

And sure, COVID-19 constraints have been part of the problem but the main reason according to an earnest Stephen Downes is, “Everything we get, we sell.”

In effect, supply shortfalls and strong customer demand have meant no spare trucks, least of all for media trials. Fair enough, customers come first.

One of the first Cascadias sold in Australia went to NSW family company Cleary Bros. Almost three years later, company director Brett Cleary says, “It hasn’t missed a beat.”

To state the obvious, there are two Cascadia models, the 116 and the 126, with the numbers defining the bumper to back-ofcab (BBC) length in inches of each model.

The shorter version is punched by a Detroit DD13 engine with up to 505hp and 1850lbft of torque whereas the 126 has the DD16 engine topping out at 600hp and 2050lb-ft.

Funny thing though, it wasn’t hard to secure an early steer of the 116. Freightliner was, in fact, extremely quick to put forward a pre-production single trailer combination together for trial runs. Furthermore, in the first half of 2020 we were also able to secure the maiden run in one of the first Cascadias sold in Australia, a 116 truck and quad-dog combination in the fleet of highly regarded NSW family company, Cleary Bros.

In a follow-up report more than a year later, company director Brett Cleary and original driver Kieran Pearce were quick to commend Cascadia’s standards of durability and fuel efficiency. “I wouldn’t change anything,” Kieran Pearce declared after the first 150,000km behind the wheel.

Meantime, for Brett Cleary the standard fitment of the Detroit Assurance 5.0 safety package of Active Brake Assist, Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Departure Warning, and the Side Guard Assist system had been a powerful influence on the decision to go early with Cascadia but operationally, he knew there was still a long way to go.

Now, with 300,000km fast approaching, the truck continues to do the right thing, according to an obviously satisfied Cleary.

Freightliner field service manager Mike Bushett points out a few of the digital system’s finer features before our first trial of a Cascadia 126 B-double.

This exercise had been a long time coming

“Other than a minor, very minor, gearbox glitch at the moment, it hasn’t missed a beat. No dramas, and it’s pulling a 39-tonne payload,” he remarks, adding that fuel consumption over the life of the truck to date sits at a pleasing 2.05km/litre (5.8mpg).

So, the big question: Would you buy another one? “Yeah, I would. The service has been good but we’re running over the big hill (Mt Ousley) a lot of the time, so I’d probably go for the 16 litre model,” Brett Cleary concluded.

Yet despite these accolades for the 116, it came as a surprise to learn the longer 126 model accounts for around 70 per cent of the 700-plus Cascadias now running on Australian roads; a ratio which perhaps belies the suggestion that the model’s long BBC precludes it from many B-double applications.

Still, proving that most things come to those who wait long enough and whinge loud enough, a new Cascadia 126 in 26-metre B-double form recently became available and before our run through regional Victoria and southern NSW, a forthright Stephen Downes didn’t shy away from any of the issues which appear to have collectively subdued Cascadia sales since its launch more than three years ago.

For instance, asked if he was content with Cascadia’s achievements to date, a succinct Downes replied, “No. We simply haven’t had enough trucks (and) we could’ve done significantly more if we’d had the trucks.

“We built momentum, but it has been

frustrating waiting for supply. We want more because we can sell more. Simple as that.”

COVID-19, he remarked, has had an obvious influence but it certainly hasn’t been the only issue impacting Cascadia’s ability to make the most of a booming Australian truck market.

Big demands on production in North America continue to be a contributing factor but so, too, has limited global supply of components been a problem for automotive brands around the world - not least, semiconductors for the electronic control modules of every new car and truck.

Add stifled shipping availability and it’s easy to see why importers – Freightliner certainly isn’t alone in suffering supply shortages – have found it particularly hard to meet high market demand.

As for the assertion that the 126 inch BBC of Freightliner’s premium model restrains Cascadia’s potential for 26 metre B-double duties, Downes insists it’s more of a problem if the 126 is coupling to an existing trailer set essentially designed for a cab-over or a shorter conventional.

“It’s not really an issue with new trailers,” he contends, referring to an engineering drawing of the new 34-pallet Krueger Kurtainer B-double set built specifically for the test unit complete with a 36 inch standup sleeper and bull bar.

As our photos show, the truck’s graphics aren’t timid in highlighting Cascadia’s credentials for B-double duties but arguably

the most positive aspect of all came from a blunt question about Cascadia’s durability to date.

“All good,” Stephen Downes instantly answered. “On durability and service, it’s meeting all our expectations.”

Over the next 48 hours though, first in the new truck, then a meeting with a fiercely pragmatic fleet operator and finally, a run in an early engineering ‘mule’ with more than 800,000km on the clock, it became clear that despite its relatively modest numbers, Cascadia appears to be in the process of achieving far more than simply ‘meeting expectations’.

The long road After more than three years since its introduction, we were keen to do something more with the Cascadia 126 than a day-long highway run, and so it was that early on a weekday morning, Freightliner field service manager Mike Bushett had an immaculately prepared 126 ready to roll from the hectic Cooper Street BP outlet on Melbourne’s northern rim.

Grossing 60 tonnes and with just 2600km on the clock, the plan was to spear north up the old Hume Highway, taking in the sharp climb over Pretty Sally before tracking to Echuca and over the border to Deniliquin and a quick meeting with Deniliquin Freighters principals Russell Tait and wife Vicki who now run three Cascadia 126 models in their 15-truck operation. After

that, head ‘cross-country on busted bitumen to Barham and over the town’s notoriously skinny bridge back into Victoria, threading through mallee country on equally ordinary roads before an overnight stay in the truck at Horsham.

Early next day, with Horsham’s Wimmera Field Days about to start, the B-double outfit was left with Daimler Truck’s Wilson Bolton dealership for display duties. In its place for the run back to Melbourne was a loaded single trailer hauled by the same engineering test unit we’d first encountered years earlier in Queensland pulling B-double loads of fuel. If nothing else, this final stint would at least indicate if Cascadia’s cab was enduring time and toil better, significantly better, than most of its forebears.

Anyway, first things first: Cascadia 126 comes with a standard gross combination mass rating of 106 tonnes and ticks enough boxes to make it a worthy competitor for the great majority of applications available to a conventional truck. Indeed, the test unit supplied for this exercise proved the point in no uncertain way.

Underneath, of course, is the burly DD16 engine rated at peak output of 600hp (447kW), backed up by a healthy 2050lb-ft of torque, distributed through the superslick and highly intuitive control of the DT12 12-speed overdrive automated transmission.

This combination is obviously part of the same ‘family’ powertrain as MercedesBenz with the notable difference that

Behind the wheel. Whether you’re a fan of a digital dash or not, Cascadia’s layout is practical and easily understood. In fact, the overall switchgear and control layout is arguably as good as it gets

Russell and Vicki Tait. Three top-shelf Cascadias have joined the Deniliquin Freighters business, complete with 60-inch hi-rise sleepers and Eaton 18-speed manual box in place of the standard 12-speed automated shifter. Cascadia is coping well with poor secondary roads, Russell says

The 36-inch XT sleeper is the smallest of Cascadia’s bunks but provides ample standing room between seats, a good mattress and reasonable features, except controls are still arranged in a left-hand drive layout.

Cascadia’s engine meets America’s fierce GHG 17 (greenhouse gas) emissions level – even more stringent than Euro 6 – with a horizontal exhaust and after-treatment system mounted under the driver’s side of the cab.

Importantly, there’s a wide range of round or square fuel tank options with the test unit carrying almost 1,000 litres in three tanks, two on the driver’s side and a single on the passenger side partnered by a 200 litre AdBlue tank, with smaller AdBlue sizes also available.

Putting performance to the ground is Meritor’s RT46-160 GP drive tandem running a 3.42:1 final drive ratio and riding on Freightliner’s well-mannered AirLiner rear suspension layout. Up front are long taperleaf spring packs.

In the all-important stopping department there’s a choice of Meritor drum brakes or Bendix discs - the latter fitted to the test truck.

From behind the wheel, the cab’s a delight with an enviable mix of creature comfort and operational simplicity.

For starters, it’s an easy climb to the Isri high-back seat and from there, everything

falls easily to hand. There is, of course, no mistaking the Daimler family similarities in a tidy switchgear and control layout, and now, Cascadia’s inclusion of two digital dash screens operated through fingertip controls on the leather-wrapped steering wheel. All up, it’s a quality layout and while a driver’s like or dislike of the digital systems over more conventional gauges is largely driven by personal choice, the Daimler design is at least among the most practical and logical in the market.

Admittedly, Freightliner’s Mike Bushett was alongside to explain the operation of the various functions and features but nonetheless, familiarity came quickly, even to someone from a time when ‘digital’ implied a finger in a certain direction rather than a technological trend.

Moreover, it didn’t take long to feel completely at ease on the road, in or out of traffic. There’s a crisp, smart strength in the Detroit powertrain which is perhaps unsurpassed in the conventional class, particularly with such worthwhile inclusions as a standard ‘hill hold’ function.

Likewise, handling and road manners on the

112

highway were sure and smooth as the outfit notched an easy 100km/h around 1400rpm.

Some may initially find the steering a tad too soft, but it is in no way sloppy or vague.

Meantime, forward vision over the drooping snout is supremely good but, as in past appraisals of Cascadia, I find the radar unit at the top centre of the windscreen visually intrusive. Typically, some agree, some don’t, but to my thinking, it simply infringes on a full view. As for rear vision, the mirrors are excellent but like so many others, the driver’s side housing can at some angles interfere with the right-hand view at roundabouts and the like.

In performance, however, there’s nothing not to like about the DD16. It’s strong, tenacious and again, ideally matched to a slick and highly intuitive transmission. The biggest hill on the run to Deniliquin is the Pretty Sally climb less than an hour out of Melbourne yet even when baulked by slower traffic, the 60 tonne B-double romped over the steepest pinch in 8th gear under part throttle. Trucks have, indeed, come a long way since the days when Pretty Sally was one of the old Hume’s many hard hauls.

Over the border into the NSW Riverina, summer still had a sharp bite as the Cascadia rolled into the Deniliquin Freighters yard with the trip computer showing the 270km

leg from Melbourne returning 1.78km/litre, or 5.03mpg. It seemed a respectable result for a relatively new truck hauling 60 tonnes.

The operator’s nod Time was tight but Russell Tait and wife Vicki were typically obliging as the conversation quickly turned to the three Cascadias in the couple’s high profile business as the national carrier for SunRice out of its Riverina operations.

It’s a formidable effort, with long-term subbies and tow operators complementing the Taits’ 15 company trucks to move up to 60 loads each day in either roadtrain, B-double or single trailer configurations.

As for Cascadia, Russell explained the first of the three 126 models arrived towards the end of 2021 and now, with upwards of 170,000km on the clock, the decision to add the Freightliner conventionals in an operation dominated by Mercedes-Benz’s flagship 2663 model comes with no regrets.

Nor, he continues, are there any regrets in making a major move to MercedesBenz some years back after a gruelling experience with Cummins EGR engines in Kenworths. We reported that story a few years ago but to say the EGR experience was a painful episode for Deni Freighters is an understatement of massive proportions.

113

DOW 491-102 ND Cascadia.indd 113

30/3/2023 1:17 pm

Then and now.

Freightliner’s original righthand drive engineering truck did plenty of work during early testing before the model’s local launch. Today, with well over 800,000 km on the clock, the truck remains in exceptionally good shape, demonstrating durability far beyond earlier Freightliner models.

Interestingly, there are three aging Kenworths still in the operation but as a candid Russell Tait says, there’s no EGR. Meantime, the couple is adamant the Benz experience has been entirely beneficial, with Vicki commenting, “We really enjoy our experience with Daimler,” and both asserting that the appointment of David Warren as dealer principal of the Daimler Truck outlets in Albury and Wagga “… has been a revelation.” In fact, as far as the Taits are concerned, David Warren’s recent award as Daimler Trucks dealer of the year was entirely deserved.

What’s more, a certain Russell Tait declares the Daimler Trucks’ full maintenance plan which supports the company’s Benz and Freightliner trucks is “… entirely costeffective.”

But, if the Benz experience has been so good, why Cascadia?

“Because we could run a long wheelbase with a 60 inch bunk and still meet the length limit with tippers,” Russell fired back.

“Besides, rice is a heavy product and we generally need only a 32-pallet deck for curtain-side B-doubles.” Thoughtful for a moment, he eagerly adds, “The big bunk certainly pleases drivers. It creates a lot of

pride and the feedback has been very strong.”

Cascadia, however, has delivered other assets. He cites, for instance, the decision to specify Eaton 18-speed manual gearboxes instead of the Detroit DT12 automated transmission as a benefit when loading from harvesters in paddocks. Moreover, an emphatic Russell Tait says Cascadia has shown an ability to cope better with poor secondary roads than its Mercedes sibling.

Still, while he describes Cascadia’s DD16 as “good on fuel,” Russell equally attests, “Mercedes-Benz is a tad better because it runs a taller diff ratio.”

As for future purchases, a steadfast Russell and Vicki say it’s simply a choice between the two brands, dependent on the application. As Russell puts it, “Mercedes for highway runs and Cascadia for more regional work.

“Either way, it’ll be one or the other,” he confirms.

By now, the heat was high and a blustery wind was curving the curtains as the demo truck was pointed south on the badly cracked and flood-ravaged roads to Barham and over the border through flat, windswept farmlands streaked by similarly secondclass roads.

114

It wasn’t always easy holding a steady speed and neat line on such broken and rough-edged roads, but for the most part Cascadia’s ride and handling qualities made the haul to Horsham at least tolerable. It was, if nothing else, easy to accept Russell Tait’s judgement of Cascadia as a capable truck on poor secondary roads.

A hot gusty wind, however, was taking a toll and as the truck rolled into Horsham in the early evening, fuel consumption for the 616km trip from Melbourne had fallen to 1.71km/litre, or 4.83 mpg. Given the diverse demands of the day, it seemed a reasonable result for a truck which had barely notched 3000 km. It’s worth noting though, the fuel figure does not include AdBlue consumption.

Meantime, the next part of the exercise didn’t demand much of truck or driver.

Sleep!

Cabin comforts Accommodating 34-pallet B-double duties, Freightliner’s 36 inch XT sleeper is obviously the smallest of Cascadia’s bunks, its bigger brothers being the 48 inch XT, 60 inch XT and 60 inch RR (raised roof) sheds.

All XT cabs provide reasonable standing

room between the seats but as the slimmest bunk in the bunch, the 36 inch version lacks the sleeper doors and lockers on each side of its bigger brothers, but at least has opening vents on each side and a reasonable single locker on the driver’s side.

Importantly, sleeper trim is neatly finished and there’s a good quality 30 inch mattress as well as curtains that extend around the doors and windscreen and another curtain that slides across the width of the sleeper. Controls for lights, fan, heating and ventilation are on a panel on the passenger side wall, along with a handy digital clock with an alarm function. On the driver’s side there’s a convenient towel rack and in the test truck, steel bracketry for mounting a TV. But here’s the thing, the bunk is still in a left-hand drive layout. Most drivers I’ve come across (including the one in the mirror) like to sleep with their head behind the driver’s seat because it’s generally the high side of the road, which means the XT’s controls for lights, fan and so on, as well as the TV bracketry, are on the wrong side of the sleeper. Whether or not Freightliner’s masters are willing to make the change for our market remains to be seen but from a driver’s perspective, the change would be welcome.

The new Cascadia ‘s sloping bonnet design helps with vision when it comes to judging distances at the front of the truck

The final part of the story, however, is arguably the most revealing and given Freightliner’s track record for questionable build quality over the last few decades, the most important. There’s no question the fit and finish of the test truck were of an appropriately high standard and with a complete lack of rattles, squeaks, shivers and shakes on roads that ranged from reasonable to rotten, it was easy to again accept Freightliner’s assertion that Cascadia’s overall quality is far above any of its immediate predecessors.

However, a few hours behind the wheel

of the engineering test truck which was, in fact, the first right-hand drive Cascadia to hit an Australian road, sealed the deal on build quality more than any other.

Hooked to a curtain-sided single trailer and grossing around 40 tonnes for this relatively short hop to Melbourne, the truck had notched almost 810,000km on a range of durability trials starting well before Cascadia’s Australian launch and to put it mildly, hadn’t had an easy life.

Again though, there was not a rattle or squeak to be heard, the dash fittings were still neat and tight, and the overall

116

handling and steering quality were entirely acceptable. In fact, the only thing outside the square was a blank space in the left of the dash fascia where a data logger had sat until recently removed.

Across the cab, Freightliner’s Mike Bushett is a calm and considerate man who didn’t deny a genuine gratitude for Cascadia.

After a collective 28 years in Daimler’s truck business and nowadays the field service manager for South Australia, Western Australia and parts of Victoria, he admits to more than a few hard days with some earlier Freightliner models.

It’s a far different deal today and despite the added complexity and detail of all modern trucks, he candidly declares Cascadia’s quality is far beyond anything from the past.

As for reliability, “It’s on a far higher scale in every way. There just aren’t the issues anymore.”

Meantime, back in Melbourne, Stephen Downes was asked, “What’s on your wish list now for Cascadia. Maybe a 16 litre model with a shorter BBC?” “No,” he answered sharply. “The only thing on my wish list right now is more of what we’ve got.”

o you remember all the quasimotivational quotes you used to hear as a kid, from your parents or your teachers or just any adult figure really?

You know those ones like, ‘hard work pays off’, or ‘good things come to those that get off their butts and earn it’ and ‘the dictionary is the only place success comes before work’.

Meet the McMahons: Jamie and Simon with their two daughters, Quinn (left) and Paige

We would even get inspirational lectures from celebrities like Michael Jordan: ‘If you do the work, you get rewarded. There are no shortcuts in life’. And then there’s my personal hero, Homer Simpson: “Son, if you really want something in this life, you have to work for it. Now quiet! They’re about to announce the lottery numbers”.

All these quotes were designed to instil in us at a young age the importance of digging in and working hard. Well, let me introduce everybody to a couple that obviously listened to those quotes a lot more than I did – Simon and Jamie McMahon.

This young couple has been working their butts off all their lives - the result of which is fleet of superb Kenworths, a collection of state-of-the-art Robuk tipper trailers, and a family of eighteen.

When I say ‘family’ I’m including not just the couple’s two lovely daughters but also the workplace family they have cultivated in the 11 years S & J McMahon has been in operation.

Their hard work has seen them progress from a single beat-up FLB water truck to some of the most outstanding Paccar-produced products in the country.

Each of their dozen trucks has its own special touches and personalities and their latest one is aimed at raising awareness of an issue close to Simon’s heart, and very important to so many of us – men’s mental health.

Before we focus on this stunning truck, or how Simon and Jamie have managed to foster a working environment that truly has that family feel to it, let’s skip back just over a decade ago and see how we ended up here.

Simon and Jamie are one of those true Romeo and Juliet stories. Without all that feuding families, fake death to avoid marriage and mourning with poison stuff. The couple, who met when they were just 18, had both grown up around trucks. Simon’s dad and grandad both drove trucks while Jamie is a farm girl and has had trucks in her life for as long as she can remember.

Simon left school at 16 and did his diesel apprenticeship at Tarong coal mine near his hometown Kingaroy, before working fly-in flyout at a Moranbah mine. Jamie on the other hand stayed at school, eventually moving on to university to study accounting.

After a year of watching her Romeo flying in and out of North Queensland, Jamie changed her studies to distance learning and took a job in the mines as well. Both Simon and Jamie were working full-time while Jamie was studying part-time. They were also planning a wedding and building a house. I told you they listened to all those ‘hard work’ quotes.

As if that wasn’t enough to keep them busy, in 2012 while still working in the mines, Simon and Jamie decided to buy their first truck and begin S & J McMahon. “It was a Freightliner FLB, body and three-axle dog,” Simon recalls.

“It was a water tank, doing roadworks and stuff up around Kingaroy.”

Wild idea You would have thought they had enough to keep them busy but it’s funny what a relaxed Friday night can lead to. “I just had a wild idea and a few beers one night and bought the Freightliner,” Simon laughs. “It was a weapon of a truck. The first six months in her, the air

con was buggered, we didn’t have the money to fix it, so we sweated it out at the start.”

Simon kept the old FLB working around the South Burnett area. There was no shortage of work as the area was recovering and repairing after some devastating floods.

“We ended up with three truck and dogs.

After the FLB we bought a couple of K104s with tippers on. They had six-foot high sides on them, so along with the civil work we started doing a bit of grain,” he explains.

A year after S & J McMahon kicked off, and with three trucks to their name, Simon pulled the pin on the mine work and decided to throw himself into trucking full time.

“It was getting too tough doing the fly-in fly-out stuff. We had the three trucks, then one driver left, so I came down to do that.”

Jamie, who at this stage was seven months pregnant with the couple’s first daughter, was still working in the mines as well as doing the books for the increasingly busy S & J McMahon business.

“Once Paige was born that was the end of the fly-in fly-out stuff,” Jamie says.

From that point on S & J McMahon was the couple’s top priority – after their daughter, obviously. With Simon filling the driver role on the third truck, the small business became

The team at Blaze Industries has done a stunning job blinging up the T909, especially the strapless tank wraps

increasingly busy. “I’d leave on a Sunday, get back on a Friday night and then spend my weekends doing all the maintenance and washing,” he says.

Jamie adds: “I’d come out, the kids would come out, we’d help with the washing.”

The young family were working extremely hard to build a good business with a solid reputation. It wasn’t easy though.

“The first six or seven years I didn’t have enough money to pay someone else to fix them, we’d do it all ourselves, me and my drivers Andrew and Roger, who are still with us today,” says Simon with his ever-positive smile. “I used to buy all the tyres out of

Brisbane and did them all ourselves as well. It filled the weekends in very quickly.”

By then S & J McMahon was moving away from the roadworks side of things and beginning to focus more on grain cartage.

In 2015 Simon and Jamie sold their starting truck, the FLB, and bought an old AJM big cab K108 and a B-double set of tipper trailers.

A year later Simon and Jamie sold one of the original K104s and replaced it with another second-hand K108 courtesy of Toowoombabased trucking company Graintrans. Behind the king cab came the company’s first brand-new set of grain trailers. It would be another year before the decision was made

Blaze Industries have done a stunning job of the custom low-mount drive guards. Adding another level of coolness to an already cool unit

to purchase a new truck. “In 2017 we bought our first brand new truck, a T409 SAR,” Simon says. “I still remember signing the paperwork when we paid for it; I was bloody shitting myself.”

Jamie admits that it was a step in the right direction for the company though.

“In hindsight it was the best thing we ever did, getting out of the old gear and into brand new gear. It’s something you have to build up to, but it saved us in breakdowns and maintenance. At first, when we looked at the repayments we were sweating but it is the best thing we ever did.”

For a young couple, still fairly new and relatively small in the transport industry, the jump into such a commitment was huge. The tipping point in the decision was a discussion Simon had with Max McNab, the owner of Graintrans. “Max said to me, ‘you’d rather be working hard in a new truck than working hard under an old truck’.”

That first new truck, the 409 SAR, really kicked things off for S & J McMahon. Their years of hard work started to bear fruit. The company’s regular clients appreciated their work ethic and the trucks were kept busy.

Soon a lot of the old gear started disappearing and being replaced with more modern trucks

and top-of-the-line trailer setups. The 409 also laid the platform for the company’s striking paint scheme.

“When I bought the ex-AJM truck in 2015 it was still in their blue. And blue is my favourite colour,” Simon says. “So, we just decided to stick with blue for the trucks and give each one its own personality. Some have stripes, some don’t. We have a couple that are white with blue stripes as well as some that are blue with white stripes.”

Trucking for a cause As it stands now, S & J McMahon has a fleet of 11 prime movers with several more on order.

While most have a theme or some artwork, their newest T909, the one you see on the pages before you, has taken things to a whole new level. And with a scrolled slogan of ‘It ain’t weak to speak’, It’s also publicising a great cause.

Like many of us, Simon has suffered from his own mental health concerns. His burden has been diagnosed as OCD or obsessivecompulsive disorder. “OCD gets a bad rap as a bit of a clean freak,” says Simon. But truth be told it is much more complicated than that.

Obsessive-compulsive disorder features a pattern of unwanted thoughts and fears that

127

can be extremely debilitating. Like many mental health issues, it is one we don’t talk about so never truly understand. The effects of it can be extremely demoralising for people and Simon is no exception. However, he is managing his mental health and is the first to credit the support he has had from not just Jamie and his family, but also his friends and workmates. Their support has been integral to his success.

“I’m very open and upfront with them and they have all been awesome. I couldn’t ask for a more understanding bunch,” he says.

His openness about his struggles has been the key to getting on top of them. “Now that I see the right people and get the right help I’ve come along in leaps and bounds, but trying to get people to talk is difficult.”

He adds in that he’s been pleasantly surprised by the number of people now talking to him about things ever since he started to open up himself.

Simon’s frankness is a positive step and has led to an openness among his friends, family and co-workers. Being able to talk when times are tough is extremely difficult and Simon’s ‘lead by example’ attitude is the

perfect approach. It also led to the design of the stunning T909.

“The truck was originally just going to be blue, we had no idea what we were going to do with it,” he explains. “It was actually already at Blaze in Toowoomba getting blinged up and Jamie suggested we try and do something to promote men’s mental health, especially in the transport industry.

“Our idea was if it gets someone to talk, then great,” says Simon, and it has. “The amount of people that have reached out, even through our S & J McMahon page on Facebook is incredible and we just strike up a chat.”

Even Jamie has been taken aback by the response. “We were hoping it would mean something to some people, but we’ve been surprised how far it went,” she says.

Getting the truck from idea to completion was a massive team effort, beginning with Jamie and her laptop. Simon acknowledges that a lot of the truck design ideas come from Jamie’s hours of research.

“We started with searching out a lot of the mental health pages for quotes that fit. One of our drivers lost a mate to suicide and he’s always using the hashtag,

Please ignore the country ‘work boots’ that Steve was suited up in as he rolls the covers back on the Robuk trailers and gets ready to load

Simon is very proud of all his drivers; they all look after their gear like it’s their own. I caught up with Steve mid-week to get some working shots and the truck was still looking stunning

#itaintweaktospeak. That was the first thing that came to mind,” Jamie continues. “The other quote that was really important was, ‘the days of she’ll be right are gone’. This was from (former rugby league player) Jonathon Thurston. I remember hearing him say that after Paul Green’s death and it really resonated.”

With a rough idea of what they wanted to accomplish and include in the new truck design, Simon and Jamie turned to Jeff Barrie from Cyclone Air Brush and Graphics.

“Jeff has done a lot of our trucks and with this one, we sort of gave him our ideas and some quotes and what we wanted and he drew it all up,” Simon says. “Jeff actually came up with The Rock quote. He’d seen it before and he added the concept of that. I did get him to change the Rock’s shirt so he had an Australian flag on it, that was all. The rest was all Jeff.”

Another visually impressive idea that Jeff included was to paint the deck plating on the back, adding a custom Kenworth symbol with S & J instead of the KW, and then airbrushing a stack of quotes.

Jeff then went on to add the same quotes to the front of the T909’s lead trailer. The truck was then finished off with a touch of Jeff’s outstanding pinstriping and the overall effect is perfection.

Along with fantastic scrolls and artwork, lights and shine are the calling cards on all S & J McMahon trucks – and this one is no exception.

Blaze Industries in Toowoomba has worked on plenty of the McMahon trucks and, for this one, they raised the bar again. It has more lights than you can shake a cat at, as well as custom rear guards and, for the first time, strapless-wrapped tanks which are just a few of the features.

Simon admits he may be a little bit addicted to the shiny stuff on his trucks. “I have asked Bernie at Blaze to invoice me for something different, so Jamie doesn’t get up me for the amount I spent on shiny bits,” he laughs.

Driver care Simon and Jamie place just as much importance on their drivers being comfortable as well as looking good. Both of them realise the difficulties on mental health and family life when you are away all the time. The couple work very hard to give their drivers a good work-life balance and part of that is ensuring they have everything they need inside the truck to live comfortably.

“We wouldn’t be where we are without our drivers,” Simon says. “They are fantastic and

look after us and the gear really well. In turn, I try and do the same for them, like getting them home for weekends, making sure all the trucks have got fridges, microwaves, inverters, subs and all that stuff inside. We couldn’t do what we do with having great drivers.”

Once the truck had all the amenities added and all the artwork completed, the keys were handed over to Steve Hart, one of McMahon’s long-term drivers.

“Steve didn’t know he was getting it until right at the end and I wasn’t sure how he’d feel about it,” Simon says, reflecting on the fact it would be a truck that hopefully a lot of people would be talking about and therefore talking to Steve. “He was actually really proud and happy to be spreading the message around,” Simon adds.

With its custom Robuk A-double behind it, and with Steve behind the wheel, this remarkable Kenworth T909 is doing exactly what it is meant to do. First and foremost, it is earning its keep, hauling whatever product is needed to wherever it needs to go throughout Queensland and New South Wales. Secondly, it is getting people talking, not just about how amazing it looks, but it is starting conversations about mental health.

Now as I wrap this story up I would normally try for some sort of amusing summation that reiterates how Simon and Jamie personify the idea of ‘hard work pays off’, which they do. But I’d rather focus on the fact this young couple has used their hardearned position to shine a very bright light on a very important cause. For that, I thank them and look forward to seeing this truck on the highway.

ounded in 1989 by the Chester’s family duo of Graeme and Julie, Chester's Transport started out with just one truck, a barrel tanker, doing stockfeed work from a local feed mill with the help of Graeme’s father.

Chester’s Transport has diversified its freight over the years

A Chester’s Western Star teamed up with a Tefco tip trailer makes for an impressive sight

Eventually, Graeme’s father transitioned out of the business as he got older, and the husband-and-wife team decided to grow the company further.

Graeme and Julie saw the opportunity to expand the business.

They started by setting up blowers on the trucks and rotary seals on the tipper trailers to enable back loading.

Around this time, they were also aware of the benefits of further diversifying the businesses operations.

“We saw a need at the time to not have all our eggs in the one basket. So, we grew the business to having several blower trucks for the stockfeed as well as tippers to cart fertiliser, lime, and bulk grain,” Julie Chester says. “More recently we have stepped away from the stockfeed and blower truck side of work. This has meant we can focus on our bulk grain work and our clients.

“We do a lot of work at a nearby oil seed factory as well as carting meals, transfer work, gypsum, lime and fertiliser for local farmers.”

The business is based on the NSW/ Victorian border in Corowa, and currently operates in Victoria and southern NSW with occasional work in central NSW. The current Chester’s fleet is a group of fantastic looking Western Star trucks paired up with trailers produced by the Goulburn company, Tefco.

“We enjoy having the bigger size cabs that Western Star can provide which gives greater comfort for our drivers. We cannot fault the Tefco tippers set up with BPW axles for their reliability and ability to cope with the Australian conditions,” Julie says.

Being the Western Star fans that they are, Julie says Chester’s is keeping a close eye on the brand’s new truck line up.

“We are looking forward to the release of the new Western Star X Series to see what this brings to the Australian transport industry,” she says.

Chester’s prides itself on always having a clean fleet of trucks and they say staff are encouraged to ensure their truck and trailers are clean before starting a new week’s work.

Chester’s, like many transport operators in Australia, is a family business that is proud to be based on a strong set of values - including safety and accountability.

“Safety comes first. We have a big focus on safety for our drivers and the general public. "

Julie and Beth both said they believed a driving apprenticeship would be a huge positive for the industry. Such an

Staffing challenges Just like every other company at the moment, Chester’s is aware of the many challenges facing the transport industry. Most important for them is the ongoing labour shortage. They have begun using social media as a strategy to attract new talent to the company.

When asked about the underlying factors that might be contributing to a lack of skilled drivers, Julie points to the unfair perceptions of drivers that culminate in fewer young people aspiring to join the industry.

“We need to recognise the hard work of truck drivers and how important the industry is for Australia in the supply chain. The labour shortage is an ongoing challenge for us. We are using social media as a new way of getting our name out into the industry and hope this will assist with recruitment in the future,” says Julie.

“We are enjoying getting our name out through social media and showing the trucking industry our fleet. We have a few drivers who enjoy taking photos of their trucks and this has helped us have a great gallery of photos,” says Graeme and Julie's

apprenticeship has been discussed extensively within the industry; Queensland stands as the only state currently to be planning to implement it, however.

“An apprenticeship program would ensure driving career paths are seen as a qualified role, creating status within the community,

as well as value and recognition. We are keen to contribute to the next generation of truck drivers, and willing to assist them to start their trucking career,” Beth says.

Chester’s also points to the large untapped potential that is female workforce participation.

“We have had a positive experience in hiring females within our workplace. We currently employ one female driver, who has been with us for 10 years.

“Women certainly could assist with the labour shortage, and it has now been proven that women can do this sort of work just as well as men,” Julie adds.

As far as what is in store for the future of Chester’s Transport, similar to how Graeme’s father slowly transitioned out of the family business to allow his son and daughter-inlaw to take over, Julie and her husband are currently in the same stage of their careers, and that is getting the business ready for Beth and her partner Ryan to take over and make their own legacy.

Beth’s partner, Ryan, has also begun driving for the company so he can get a feel for the industry and eventually transition into a managerial role.

Fans of the Western Star brand, the Chesters are considering an X series upgrade

e knocked the bastard off’. Yes, I am well aware that this quote comes from fellow antipodean Sir Edmund Hillary. I’m also aware that it carried much more gravitas when it was his response to summiting Mt Everest. However, it does not diminish the enormity of my challenge either.

The Tooradin Truck Show and Tractor Pull has been another event that has been sitting on my bucket list for quite a while and, in 2023, I finally ‘knocked the bastard off’. Now comes the hard part, writing up my summary.

Assessing the good and the bad, passing judgment like an Instagram influencer, and

offering insight into another legendary Australian truck show.

Let us start with a bit of advice first. If you are heading to the tiny town of Tooradin on the south eastern outskirts of Melbourne then I strongly suggest you pack your sunnies. You may question my rationale as you look at the photos and see nothing but storm clouds, but I am telling you now I was thankful for my Makos on show day, for multiple reasons.

Number one was obviously the quality of the trucks and the level of shine on those trucks. It was second to none. I swear I got sunburnt just standing next to the Browns

Yes sir, we are adhering to all the safety measures. You’ll notice three points of contact as the Lawrence Transport truck gets its stacks polished

Stockfeed Kenworths. The second advantage to having my sunnies was safety. With an 8000hp tractor throwing mud everywhere and burnout cars peppering the crowd with hot rubber reminders of their power, it was almost a health and safety requirement to have a decent set of sunnies.

Third and by no means the least important was having my mirrored sunnies allowed me to avoid any awkward moments due to my lingering looks at some of the legendary mullets on display. Seriously, there were almost as many mullets as trucks – and the quality was second to none. You do feel self-

conscious staring, but those people sporting their mullets had put in some serious effort and should be applauded.

But back on to the show. Like all the fun stuff in Victoria, the Tooradin Truck Show and Tractor Pull has been on a governmentenforced hiatus for a couple of years, so this year’s event was back with a vengeance.

The Tooradin show is normally one of the first ones on the truck show circuit, filling in the last weekend of January. However, as if three years of COVID-19 wasn’t enough, this year mother nature decided to ruin the January event with torrential rain leading up to the show. Personally, I think it would have been a ratings success watching some of those big 27-litre tractors drag the bogged trucks out of the wet ground, but that’s just me.

It seems the delayed month did absolutely nothing to discourage those wanting to attend. Crowd numbers were massive and entrant numbers were record-setting.

The show has actually been running since

the late ’90s, starting as the Tooradin Tractor Pull. In the mid-2000s, with attendance numbers still rather low, the committee decided to introduce a truck show aspect into things.

For quite a while the whooping big tractors were still the main feature with the truck show being kind of like the broccoli on your pub dinner. You’d eat it but only when you were taking a breather from your 300g sirloin.

By the mid-2010s the truck show had become more of a Diane sauce with the

Tractor Pull still being the steak. It was a great steak but all the better for the Diane sauce.

Before that silly virus curtailed all our good times the truck show entrants had hit the 100 mark and still rising.

Bring on 2023 and the Tooradin Truck Show had flipped the script. It was now the prime cut 500g eye fillet of the show. The Tractor Pull now became the cheesy garlic bread entrée and the chocolate mud cake dessert of my analogy.

return was greeted with nearly a 50 per cent increase in truck show entrants, a staggering amount of Joe Public ticket holders and all of that alongside an overabundance of horsepower in the burnout cars and tractor pull entrants.

As good as all that sounds, there is a downside to 2023 show. It’s not the local community though. Before this year’s show the Tooradin Truck Show and Tractor Pull committee had raised and distributed over $200,000 dollars to local charity organisations and community projects. With the numbers attending this year’s show, there would be plenty more community support.

No, the downside was more related to the volunteers having to find parking for all the shiny trucks.

It was a bit of a goat track path from the queue out on the highway into the tractor pull

complex. I can imagine the lovely volunteers getting quite concerned as the line of trucks seemed never ending in the early hours of Saturday morning. Add in the fact that there was also a car and bike show incorporated into the event and by 9am the queue to get in was stretching all the way back into town.

I must admit I was glad to arrive before 7am when I only managed a 20-minute traffic jam.

The other downside to the huge interest in this year’s show reared its head in the early afternoon. With so many trucks, a gluttony of classic cars, a menagerie of mullets and more people than you could shake a crispy accordion potato stick at, there ended up being a shortage of food.

Don’t misunderstand me here, there wasn’t a shortage of choices. The massive food van court had all manner of options and highquality options as well. No, the problem was

This is what 8000hp looks like. Imported directly out of the US, this thing can pull. Believe it or not there is room for another engine on there as well – that would make it 10,000hp

I don’t think even the vendors had budgeted for such a big show and found themselves running out of product. Thankfully I have an eclectic appetite and was happy to join another line.

All in all, I have to say the Tooradin Truck Show and Tractor pull was a fabulous day out. I wouldn’t say it’s a photographer’s truck show though. Again, that’s the downside to the show’s popularity and not one worth complaining about. When you are having to squeeze over 150 trucks into a ground that usually held much closer to 100, you are not going to have much space around the trucks.

However, that was superseded by the fact the show was an all-round day out.

The ‘on track’ entertainment of burnout cars and fully blown tractors began around 3pm, shortly after the stunt plane did his bit.

Oh, did I not mention that? Yeah, after you had spent a few hours admiring the shiny trucks, then checking out merchandise stands from the local Mack and Kenworth dealers, as well as the local market stalls, you were advised to pop past the bar, grab a drink and find a seat on the embankment where Paul Bennet Airshows put on an incredible acrobatic display in his Wolf Pitts Pro biplane.

A break in the tractor pulling allowed for the

truck show prize giving, another victim of the show’s success. Such a huge jump in entrants and such a high-class field meant the poor judges and the team responsible for tallying all the scores were well behind their 4pm target. Eventually, all votes were collated and the judges handed down their decisions.

The Bob Searle Rig of the Day is always the much sought-after golden ticket, this year’s winner was Wilken Bulk Haulage’s 2018 Mack Super-Liner. There was another highly sought after trophy this year, the Stuart Baker Memorial trophy. This award was in honour of a friend of the show and a great mate in the transport industry, the late Stuart Baker.

His family was on hand to present the trophy which was awarded to the best presented Kenworth Legend truck. Deservedly so, the inaugural trophy was awarded to Kelly Durkin Trucking’s 2014 T900 Legend.

All up it was a fantastic day. There were some outstanding trucks, those big tractors are incredible and seeing a kid with a permed mullet was just the onion rings on top of a sirloin steak of a day.

See you next year Tooradin. I suggest you look into using those tractors to plough up some of the back paddocks because this show is just getting bigger.

aced with ambitious targets to achieve a greener future, including endorsing the goal of being emission-free by 2050, Scania has been busy exploring all manner of fuel alternatives.

On the one hand, it’s well on track to going into production of a new range of battery electric vehicles that are able to achieve the zero-emission dream in one hit.

On the other, Scania serves a wide and varied market, where the infrastructure, support and capital required to convert fleets from diesel combustion engines to battery electric or hydrogen technology is going to take more than a few years to evolve.

As a company, it has broken down its BHAG, the old Big Hairy Audacious Goal, into a smaller chunk that it is tackling right now in the form of a race to cut its own manufacturing carbon dioxide emissions by 50 per cent by 2025 – just two years away.

It is also aiming to achieve a 20 per cent CO2 reduction from Scania products in use.

While there are emissions-savings to be made by sourcing materials made in an emissions-free way and working with suppliers who have stepped along the same path – the leadership at Scania have realised that fine-tuning existing engine technology to minimise emissions will go further towards moving the dial in the right

direction for their business, and the industry they serve.

The result has been the development and release of its “greenest” truck engine yet, a 13-litre six-cylinder creation that can be configured to produce 420, 460, 500 and 560 hp.

The new “Super” engine range is being fitted to new model Scanias along with an Opticruise gearbox, a new generation modular chassis and a new generation of fuel tanks that have greater usable capacity.

Now being delivered in Australia, the Scania Super engine is capable of operating on biofuels, B100 biodiesel and hydrogenated vegetable oils (HVO).

It promises to deliver eight per cent fuel savings as compared to its predecessor, the highly efficient 13-litre Euro 6 engines.

The Super range marks the biggest update of Scania’s products since the introduction of the New Truck Generation in Australia in 2018.

Scania Australia’s Director of Truck Sales Benjamin Nye says the new Super range will be available across the P-series, G-series and R-series cabs here.

“We are introducing not only an engine platform but a major initiative for strengthening Scania’s industry-leading position within sustainable transport for the rest of this decade,” Nye says.

The Scania Super 460 P model is just one of a series coming to Australian shores this year

“The transport scene is rapidly changing.

Customers are demanding the best total operating economy with sustainability.

“At Scania, we have set our aim high because we see this as the route to achieve our targets for curbing greenhouse gas emissions set by the Paris agreement in 2016.”

The release of an improved diesel combustion engine is a nod to the reality of where the market really sits on its journey to zero-emissions.

“Renewable fuels and electrified vehicles will increase their share dramatically in the next few years, globally, but we all still depend on combustion engines for our daily lives,” Nye says.

“And that is why Scania’s new engine is so important, since it will contribute towards a substantial decarbonisation for the rest of this decade.

their fuel bill, even when compared to the industry-leading efficient engines we are replacing.”

Taking a closer look at what’s behind the success of the Super engine, Scania’s chief engineer for inline engines, Magnus Henrikson, identifies a range of tweaks to engine architecture, electronic controls and aftertreatment.

“Our task was to develop an engine platform based on Scania’s low-rev philosophy, capable of exceeding all impending regulations and dealing successfully with all potential competition for the rest of this decade. I believe we have accomplished that goal,” Henrikson says.

Key elements Scania lists for the new engines include: • Dual overhead camshafts • Four-valve cylinder head technology • Scania Twin-SCR system with dual dosing of urea • Weight and strength optimised crankshaft

New DEALS

• Technical life-length increase of 30 per cent with extended maintenance intervals • Swept volume of 12.74-litres and a compression ratio of 23:1 • Thermal efficiency of at least 50 per cent Another highlight is the new highperformance compression release brake that weighs only 7kg and provides a retardation effect up to 350kW. Scania says the new Super engine range can be equipped with a combination of the traditional exhaust brake (butterfly valve in the exhaust manifold), the new CRB system and a (disengageable) R4700D Retarder, creating an auxiliary brake blending system with outstanding capacity for “the most demanding operations”.

The new models also have new generation gearboxes, axles and power take off systems.

The new gearboxes feature 14 forward gears, including a super crawler and overdrive, and up to eight reverse gears.

In the axle department, the Scania R756

single reduction rear axle is designed to optimise the gear ratio range from 2.92 to 4.11.

On the body side, the new modular design offers operators more opportunities to customise their chassis to best suit the use they intend for the vehicle.

Nye says the modular approach means there is a lot more flexibility when it comes to things like moving fuel tanks in front of the rear axle to allow for enhance payloads or weight distribution.

Those fuel tanks have also been updated to a d-shaped design that increases their strength and work closely with the Fuel Optimisation Unit to ensure the trucks have the fuel on demand they require for all situations.

The spec and tech lists for the various incarnations of the new Super range are long. Anyone keen to check them out will find some joy at scania.com/au/en Keep an eye out for coming editions of Deals on Wheels to find out what Steve Brooks thought of the new range in action.

There’s no missing the Scania badge and the striking look of the Super series trucks like the 560hp version below

Crighton’s Rural Engineering can install water meters on pipes up to 1,200mm wide

Megalitre Meter With 11 certified installers on staff, and a wide range of meters available, Crighton’s Rural Engineering is helping inland NSW stay ahead of new water regulations.

Landowners in Southern Inland NSW have until 1 June this year to ensure their water meters are up to date.

Launched in 2019 the changes to NSW’s non-urban water metering rules require new, tamper proof water meters be installed at some water supply works in the state.

Back in 2020 the NSW Water Department predicted 7,380 places in the inland southern region would need a new compliant meter installed to meet the new guidelines.

All these water meters must be pattern approved, have a local intelligence device (LID) and tamperevident seals, and be installed by a qualified person.

Based in Hay and serving properties all around the Riverina, the team at Crighton’s has been hard at work meeting this demand, installing water meter setups on pipes ranging from 50mm to 1,200mm in diameter.

With 11 certified meter installers and validators on staff, Crighton’s stocks and supplies a wide range of compliant, pattern-approved water meters, including axial flow, submersible and mixed flow models.

Crighton’s spokesman James Bisset says the company’s most common meter installations are for river pumps – used for farm irrigation – and bores.

“One of Crighton’s larger metering projects was the major modernisation of the Hay Private Irrigation district,

where 112 pattern approved meters were installed as well as upgrading the major infrastructure and installing automated outlets to all farms within the district,” he says.

“Crighton’s is able to install and validate all varieties of water meters to ensure customers meet mandatory water meter compliance before June 1.”

Bisssett adds that Crighton’s will also advise customers how to maintain the water meter sites.

“Crighton’s were involved in the initial water NSW roll out of pattern approved meters, working alongside Water NSW metering fleet and we continue to work closely with Water NSW,” Bissett adds.

A family business now run by its third generation, and with more than 45 years of local knowledge, Crighton works with meters from Aussie, Bates, Macquarrie, Pomona and Kelly & Lewis.

But it also offers plant, pump and machinery hire, steel welding and fabrication and crane work and hire, up to 80 tonnes.

“Crighton’s prides itself on being able to supply you with the most precise and up-to-date solution to your needs,” Bissett says.

T To find out more, call on 02 6993 1768 or visit the Crighton’s Rural Engineering webpage at www. crightons.com.au

For Greg Morris and the team at A-One Lift Truck Services, finding the ideal machine for his customers is one of the joys of the job.

Morris himself has more than 45 years’ experience in buying, selling, repairing and servicing all types of forklifts – today using that experience to ensure his customers have the right machine for their needs.

“Each forklift that comes into A-One Truck Services doesn’t leave unless it has been fully serviced and tested by me personally in the workshop,” he says.

“We will be sure to have what you are looking for and, if you are not too sure what you need for a certain job, give us a call or send an email enquiry.”

Today, A-One Lift Truck Services has more than 200 forklifts in its fleet, including models from Toyota, Komatsu, Crown, Linde, Dieci, Yale/Hyster, Genie and more.

The group has diesel, electric, gas and petrol-powered forklifts in a variety of sizes, as well as a range of other material handling equipment – including telehandlers, pallet trucks and drum handlers – and essential attachments including bale clamps, jibs, slippers and ramps.

A-One forklifts can be hired for as low as $100 plus GST per week and offers no lockin arrangements on contracts both long and short, even down to a one-day hire.

Based in the Western Sydney suburb of Minchinbury, A-One Lift Truck Services has a fully qualified service team able to do anything from an oil change to a complete vehicle overhaul and offering a wide range of spare parts and forklift tyres.

It also has mobile service vans available for repairs on the work site where needed, with tilt trays drivers also available to deliver in the Sydney metro area, with other deliveries able to be arranged in other areas as well.

A-One Lift Truck Services also offers what it says is Australia’s largest range of tow tugs – with petrol, diesel and electric models available alongside a large selection of trailers.

To check out the range or to find out more, visit lifttrucks.com.au or call (02) 9832 9777.

Playtime’s over.

People talk about being in the “building game” but it’s no game, it’s serious business. And you need a serious truck to handle bigger payloads. Isuzu Ready-to-Work trucks can carry around a tonne more than a typical ute, most only requiring a standard car licence. So if you’re ready to get serious, head to isuzu.com.au or visit your nearest Isuzu Truck Dealer now.

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.

Features shown are available across Isuzu 4x2 Ready-to-Work models only. FSA/ISZS1423
