About the scheme group
The TMA HPLV Monitoring Scheme (VIC) is made available by the Department of Transport and Planning (DTP), Victoria, to monitor road utilisation of eligible high performance livestock vehicles (HPLV) on the Victorian road network.
The scheme is associated with the Telematics Monitoring Application (TMA) of the National Telematics Framework.
Definitions
HPLVs are Class 3 heavy vehicle combinations that exceed 26 metres in length, are designed to move livestock, and fall outside the PBS scheme that applies to high productivity freight vehicles.
HPLV road network access in Victoria is based on meeting the reference vehicle designs and other requirements stated in Victoria’s High Productivity Livestock Vehicle Pre-Approved Permit Information Sheet, which is available, along with other applicable content, on the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) website.
Eligibility
To participate in the scheme, transport operators must conform with the requirements specified within an applicable Class 3 permit, available on the NHVR website. The permit describes eligible vehicles for the scheme and any characteristics of those vehicles.
| Note: Eligible HPLVs may be enrolled under either the RIM or TMA applications. For information on enrolling an eligible HPLV under the RIM application, see RIM HPLV Monitoring Scheme (VIC). |
How to enrol
Step 1 – Choose a certified Application Service Provider (ASP) and assist the ASP with any information it needs to complete the enrolment process.
Step 2 – Your ASP will ensure the telematics device is installed in your vehicle and certified by TCA. The telematics device will generate position records and report them to TCA. The ASP will report data records and enrolments to TCA no less frequently than monthly.
