Game Changing & Transformative – Regional Australia Level Crossing Safety Program

NTRO Rail

NTRO was launched on December 1 in Melbourne, with more than 250 people from across the industry attending. The NTRO will create the new knowledge that will be used to provide world’s best practice across all modes of transport – road, rail, ports and airports – for Australia and New Zealand.

The Australasian Centre for Rail Innovation (ACRI) formally became part of ARRB in mid-2022, and will lead the NTRO’s rail focus. NTRO Ports and NTRO Airports have also been established for those disciplines.

As well as its Melbourne headquarters, the NTRO also has offices in Brisbane, Sydney, Canberra, Adelaide, Perth and Wellington. This makes the organisation truly international and reflective of a mode-agnostic road, rail, ports and airports organisation.
