Strong minds. Practical experience. The leadership to tackle tough problems together.

That’s the strength of ALRTA’s PBS Committee, bringing HVIA, NHVR, suppliers, rural carriers and livestock transport operators around one table.

Our latest meeting focused on practical challenges: delays in clearing defects, electronic braking system training, and building a shared understanding between operators and enforcement.

The power of this group is the knowledge each person brings, and the willingness to listen, challenge ideas and work towards solutions.

Closer collaboration, shared education and a consistent, risk-based approach can help turn those conversations into practical progress.

Thank you to everyone contributing their time and expertise. This is national representation in action: members and industry partners working together to improve safety, productivity and confidence across our sector.

Strong people. Shared purpose. Stronger together.

Great to see this sector of the transport industry moving forward ..

EBS braking took centre stage at the LRTAV Conference, and the message was clear: hardware alone isn’t enough – operators need the skills, support, and processes to make it work.

Since Shepparton, ALRTA has been approached with offers to help develop training, portable testing tools, affordable diagnostics, and industry-wide wiring standards.

Now, ALRTA will take these offers forward — working with industry partners to roll out practical operator training, champion national wiring standards, and advocate for commissioning and onboarding requirements to sit alongside new technology mandates. Our Braking Habits project will continue to drive cultural change, moving from “she’ll be right” to proactive safety checks.

This is industry stepping up, working together to match regulation with real-world capability – because safety is everyone’s business.
