12 Sep Revised National Freight & Supply Chain Strategy Announced
An updated National Freight and Supply Chain Strategy has been announced by the federal government. This revised strategy has been developed to support Australia’s freight and supply chain sector, which has significantly evolved since the strategy’s first iteration in 2019.
The National Freight and Supply Chain Strategy establishes an agenda for a collaborative approach to deliver actions by governments and industry across all freight modes. It includes updated goals and outlines four priority areas of productivity, resilience, decarbonisation and data: elements all considered integral when supporting more efficient supply chains.
In addition, some of the key actions include developing a national freight resilience plan and freight infrastructure investment framework, conducting safety research on batteries and zero emission power technologies for freight vehicles and locomotives, as well as promoting the uptake of safety and productivity boosting technology.
The revised strategy paper aims to support Australia’s growing freight task which is a vital sector that is projected to grow 26% between 2020 and 2050.
