Overview

The New South Wales Class 2 Heavy Vehicle Authorisation and Class 3 Heavy Vehicle Exemption (Notice) – Hunter Expressway and Other Roads - 2014 (No. 2) Amendment Notice (No. 1) was enacted in 2014 to address the need for specific authorisations and exemptions for heavy vehicles on certain roads within New South Wales. This notice was created under sections 117 and 138 of the Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL) by the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator and aims to provide tailored regulations for the use of class 2 and class 3 heavy vehicles on designated roads, ensuring safe and efficient movement of these vehicles while mitigating potential impacts on local communities and infrastructure. The notice outlines the specific authorisations and exemptions for various vehicle categories on particular roads, subject to conditions such as time restrictions, speed limits, and emergency use provisions.

Scope and Application

This Notice pertains to the authorisation of specific categories of class 2 heavy vehicles to operate on designated routes during specified times and exempts certain class 3 heavy vehicles from the mass or dimension requirements of the Heavy Vehicle (Mass, Dimension and Loading) National Regulation. It applies to road managers, vehicle types, and conditions for the specified routes within New South Wales. The Notice is made under the Heavy Vehicle National Law and extends its application to other roads in the state through subordinate instruments. The Notice comes into effect on the date of publication in the Commonwealth Government Gazette, except for the removal of certain routes from Schedule 1, which will take effect 28 days after publication. The Notice will expire on 14 August 2015. There are no exclusions, exemptions, or thresholds specified in the Notice.

Key Provisions

This notice, made under sections 117 and 138 of the Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL), aims to authorise specific categories of class 2 vehicles on designated routes during specified hours on certain days (Section 2). The notice also exempts certain categories of class 3 heavy vehicles from the prescribed mass or dimension requirements of the Heavy Vehicle (Mass, Dimension and Loading) National Regulation (Section 2). This notice is titled the New South Wales Class 2 Heavy Vehicle Authorisation And Class 3 Heavy Vehicle Exemption (Notice) – Hunter Expressway And Other Roads - 2014 (No. 2) Amendment Notice (No. 1) (Section 3). The notice comes into effect in two parts: the removal of specific routes from Schedule 1 Table 1 will take effect 28 days after the date of publication in the Commonwealth Government Gazette, while the rest of the notice will come into effect on the date of publication in the Gazette (Section 4). The notice will expire on 14 August 2015 (Section 5). This notice amends the New South Wales Class 2 Heavy Vehicle Authorisation And Class 3 Heavy Vehicle Exemption (Notice) – Hunter Expressway And Other Roads - 2014 (No. 2) by replacing the text following “Appendix 2” in Schedule 1 of that notice with the contents of Schedule 1 of this notice (Section 6). The obligations imposed by this notice include the authorisation of 25m B-double vehicles operating at 4.6m high on various roads and routes, subject to specific conditions such as operating hours, speed limits, and restrictions on turning and access (Schedule 1). The notice also imposes conditions on the use of these vehicles, such as requiring a destination within a precinct, prohibiting parking on roads for more than one hour, and ensuring all travel to and from off-street properties is in a forward direction. Breaching the conditions outlined in this notice may result in penalties, though specific penalties are not detailed in the notice. However, under the Heavy Vehicle National Law, penalties for breaches can include fines and potential disqualification from driving heavy vehicles. The maximum penalties for such offences can be substantial, depending on the severity of the breach and the relevant jurisdictional laws. It is essential for operators and drivers of heavy vehicles to comply with the conditions specified in this notice to avoid potential legal consequences.
