Transport is the backbone of the Tasmanian economy; facilitating growth in key sectors of construction, agriculture, aquaculture, and exports, and is essential to our every day Tasmanian way of life. 

As an Island state, an efficient freight network within Tasmania, and connections with interstate ports and freight hubs, is critical to the continued economic prosperity of Tasmanian businesses and the living standards of all Tasmanians.  These freight connections are provided by more than 2000 transport businesses operating in Tasmania, across road, rail, shipping, logistics, ports and air.

We have worked throughout COVID-19, keeping supermarket shelves stocked, backing up the increased deliveries from online shopping and supporting other sectors to continue operating.

Transport and logistics will underpin and actively enable economic and social recovery initiatives. For the health and safety of our people, and for the security of Tasmanian supply chains,  we must do all that we can to keep our workplaces COVID-19 safe.
