Title
Australian Road Train Association
Description
The Australian Road Train Association was originally formed in 1989, at a small meeting in Dubbo, of around 20 NSW based road train operators.
The basis of the meeting was to form an association to lobby the NSW authorities to gain road train access to western NSW. Before 1989 general freight carrying road trains were not allowed to operate in NSW. Only stock carrying road trains were allowed west of the Darling River.
After working closely with the NSW Roads and Traffic Authority and the NSW Police Service, gradual access was granted, firstly to Byrock then Trangie and then onto Narromine.
