Supply chain solutions for Australia

Australia’s definitive freight transport event, AusIntermodal, took place on Wednesday and Thursday this week at Hilton on the Park, Melbourne.

With Australia spending vast amounts on transport infrastructure to meet the growing freight task, the conference focused on the role of Infrastructure Australia, Auslink 2 and the federal government’s plans to improve freight logistics.

The conference brought together industry leaders to discuss supply chain solutions, the future of Australian road and rail, and how to combat climate change in the freight transport industry. Jean Trestour, Head of Maritime Transport Policy from the European Commission, delivered a keynote international address and discussed European intermodalism and potential applications in an Australian context.
