NRSPP Annual Report 2024-25

Welcome

Judith Charlton | Independent Chair of NRSPP

A highlight was the announcement of our successful grant to support Grey Fleet Safety, awarded by the Commonwealth Government’s Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications and the Arts’ Grants Scheme. Grey fleet encompasses any vehicle used for work not directly provided by the organisation that employs the driver. The grant supports an ambitious program of research to work with Australian businesses to provide better knowledge and resources for measuring and improving workplace road safety culture and managing risk in their grey fleets. A key achievement of the Grey Fleet Working Group to date is the development of a Grey Fleet Safety Management Model now embedded in the NRSPP website. The Model, and accompanying resources, is intended for use by organisations to rate their performance on key criteria and determine where improvements can be made to achieve optimal safety management.

The NTARC2.0 initiative, a partnership between NTI, MUARC and the NRSPP, has entered its second year and has set a new standard in heavy vehicle major incident reporting. The first Major Incident Investigation Report was released in June 2024 and provides important insights into the heavy vehicle sector, with inattention and distraction, speeding and unsafe following distances contributing to an overall increase in incident severity and frequency.
