Wharf carriers unite in Vic

The VTA has announced the creation of the Wharf Carrier Group to better hone its representation of Victoria's wharf carriers

The Victorian Transport Association has formed a new body to enhance the voice of the state's wharf carriers.

Announced yesterday (February 17), VTA CEO Peter Anderson (pictured) said the new Wharf Carrier Group will further enhance its representation of the association's members.

"The Wharf Carrier Group will enable us to focus our resources and efforts in the areas of advocacy, debate and action on wharf-related issues directly pertaining to wharf carriers," he said.

"The new group will be starting fresh with a clear mandate to attack the operational issues that affect container carriers and road transport companies.

"This sector-specific group has been formed by VTA members and will draw from its membership base to develop policy, actions and results in reference to container carrier activities."

The Wharf Carrier Group's first meeting will be held at the VTA's offices on Friday, February 20, at 9.30am. Any wharf carriers interested in joining could contact the VTA on (03) 9646 8590.
