Jenny Aitchison will open day two of the conference with an update on the NSW freight policy agenda servicing regional exporters and communities.\nAustralia’s total domestic freight task is projected to grow by 26 per cent between 2020 and 2050. Despite this, a mere two per cent of freight is hauled by trains between Sydney and Melbourne – the busiest freight corridor by volume in the country – and less than five per cent of freight is currently moved by rail between Sydney and Brisbane. Even the critical Melbourne-Brisbane transport corridor has a rail mode share of less than 30 per cent.\nARA CEO Caroline Wilkie said the conference provides an important opportunity for government and industry to come together to discuss ways to improve the resilience, productivity and sustainability of our rail freight sector.\n“The critical role that rail plays in delivering large volumes of goods across vast distances has never been more keenly felt, with the urgent need for a focus on network resilience underscored by the pandemic and multiple flood and bushfire events that have caused disruptions over recent years,” Ms Wilkie said.\n“There is an urgent need for rail to increase its share of Australia’s significant and growing national freight task to meet future demand.\n“Our freight task will continue to grow, and road and shipping alone will not be enough – we need a resilient, reliable and efficient national rail freight network to support the economy and community.\n“There is also a huge environmental imperative to move more freight from road to rail. It will be critical to reducing our transport emissions and making sure we meet Australia’s net zero target by 2050.”\nARA research shows that rail freight is up to 16 times less carbon intensive than road freight.\nThe recently released reportFuture of Freightwarned under-investment in the rail freight network is jeopardising Australia’s freight capacity.\nThe Future of Freight report was led by the Australasian Centre for Rail Innovation (ACRI), with input from the ARA and Freight on Rail Group (FORG), and supported by the Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications and the Arts.\n“Every time there is a freight outage, it has a long-lasting impact on the economy, businesses and the community, costing millions of dollars,” Ms Wilkie said\nThe conference program will include presentations on sustainability, technology and innovation, Inland Rail, intermodal infrastructure and ports, interoperability and productivity.\nOverseas speakers include: Milind Nirmal, Executive Director – Asia Pacific, DB Engineering & Consulting GmbH, who will share his insights on the benefits of freight sharing high speed rail in Europe; and Matt Soule, CEO and Co-founder, of Los Angeles-based Parallel Systems, will present on their autonomous, battery-electric freight wagons and their local partnership with Arc Infrastructure.\nThe conference will also feature panel discussions on both days focusing on harmonisation, productivity, workforce and the supply chain.\nOther notable speakers at the ARA Rail Freight Conference include:\nThe Hon. Jenny Aitchison, NSW Minister for Regional Transport and Roads\nMark Mazurek, CEO, Linfox\nNatalie Pelham, National Rail Safety Regulator and Chief Executive, Office of the National Rail Safety Regulator\nWayne Johnson, CEO, ARTC\nCarolyn Walsh, Chair, National Transport Commission\nPaula Stagg, A/Dept Secretary of DITRDCA\nNick Miller, CEO, Inland Rail\nAdrian Hart, Head of Construction and Infrastructure, BIS Oxford Economics\nJames Baulderstone, CEO, National Intermodal Corporation\nAndrew Harding, MD, Aurizon\nMishkel Maharaj, CEO, Intermodal Terminal Company.\nThe full program can be viewed here.Contact details: Media contact:\nNatasha Wallace\nSenior Manager – Strategic Communications\n0499 272 672 | [email protected]","kind":null,"is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":null,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.24.2","shortVersion":"4.24.2","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/2425913338"}
