Joint PBS Freight Task Analysis Report

Transport Certification Australia (TCA) and the Australian Road Transport Suppliers Association (ARTSA) released a joint research report at the 2019 Brisbane Truck Show.

The TCA and ARTSA report is on the network-wide usage of Performance Based Standards (PBS) vehicles enrolled in the Intelligent Access Program (IAP), and is an output of collaborative research using data collected through the National Telematics Framework.

The report offers unique insights into the movement of PBS vehicles across Australia. It leverages on the availability of aggregated, anonymised vehicle location information from vehicles monitored through applications of the National Telematics Framework during the 2018 calendar year.

The network-wide analysis of vehicle movements across the research period provides rich insights to the freight industry, heavy vehicle manufacturers, suppliers, road managers and regulators on the use of PBS vehicles on Australia’s road network.
