This report summarises the work undertaken and conclusions reached as part of an Austroads project to develop a policy framework to enhance the productivity, safety and efficiency of freight in the urban context.

These guidelines have been developed to help councils plan and assess road freight access to industrial areas, including ensuring that infrastructure provided by developers is adequate to meet access needs for many years.

In late 2014 Austroads sought feedback on a proposal to add two new specialist categories to Australia’s National Prequalification System.
