Freight Plan To Set Roadmap For Way Forward

7 August 2025

The Victorian Government has launched the updated Victorian Freight Plan to decarbonise and strengthen Victoria’s $36 billion freight sector.

Key initiatives include an $8 million Freight Sector Innovation Fund to help small and medium operators transition to low-emission technologies, expanded EV infrastructure, and new tools to track carbon emissions. The plan also supports green shipping initiatives and aims to position Victoria as a global leader in sustainable freight. With targeted investments in road, rail, and port infrastructure, the plan will boost efficiency, protect Victoria’s competitive edge, and support the state’s 260,000-strong freight workforce.
