New National Class 2 Road Train guide released

The National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) has released an online operator’s guide for the National Class 2 Road Train Authorisation Notice 2020.

The online operator’s guide will replace the PDF guides with a one mobile-responsive webpage, which is more simplified and introduces more nationally consistent conditions for road trains, supporting more seamless cross-border access.

  • The NHVR worked closely with state and local government road managers to improve road train access by expanding access to include:
  • a Victorian road network for 36.5m A-doubles
  • access in South Australia for 30m A-doubles, 36.5m B-triples and AB-triples, and rigid trucks towing two dog trailers
  • consolidated access to a number of Type 2 road trains on a single Type 2 road train network.

Feedback from industry confirmed it’s much easier to find information in online operator’s guides, which can still be printed as a complete document if operators want to carry a paper copy in their trucks.
