Parkes, Forbes and Lachlan Shire Councils’ Load Restraint Education Project has released a series of instructional ‘how to’ videos focusing on machinery, hay bales and general freight.
The how-to videos have had more than 1000 views, with part two in the series specifically dealing with how to safely restrain hay bales to your vehicle.
The project was funded by the federal government through the NHVR’s Heavy Vehicle Safety Initiative (HVSI) and was supported by NSW Police, NSW Farmers and Transport for NSW, with assistance from NSW Rural Fire Service, SafeWork NSW and NSW Health’s Rural Adversity Mental Health Program.
