The Victorian Freight and Logistics Council is an independent industry advisory body that provides advice to government on the development, planning, regulation and operation of freight and logistics transport, infrastructure and services in Victoria. Thirty senior industry and government people are appointed to the Council by the Victorian Government.

The Council is a conduit between industry and government. It provides a forum for members to raise strategic issues with government which impact on the efficiency and future of the freight and logistics sector. The Council has a “whole of State” approach and looks at a long term vision for the industry in an objective and rigorous manner. The Council is funded by both the State and Commonwealth governments, is chaired by a senior industry figure and maintains an independent secretariat.

"Our ambition is for Victoria to have the best service levels across the whole freight and logistics sector and freight transport chain, including the most efficient and effective interfaces between modes, delivering tangible benefits to business and the community, helping our State to be globally competitive."

On this website you will find reports, submission documents and background information on several of the key issues related to the freight and logistics industry.
