Trucking Nightmare * Australia - NSW permit
NSW,Australia -Australasian TN -8 Dec 2006: -- A single truck operator with four permits to carry higher mass in NSW, needs another 11 just to do basic trips across NSW... And to get 15 kms out of the Port of Newcastle, the owner-operator needs to apply to three different councils covering 11 roads... It has taken three weeks to get one permit that covers 100 metres of a road that is already a Road Train Route... Confusion at local councils about who they deal with at the Roads & Traffic Authority has been a major issue - as has been variations in the names of roads and whether they appear on computerised maps used by the RTA versus councils versus operators... Opertators who don't have access to good computers, the internet and can use computerised mapping would find the applications over the complexity of routes very difficult...
