Part of the Asset Management in Action Webinar Series – showcasing submissions from the 2024 Excellence Awards. Join us for an engaging webinar on Transport for NSW’s (TfNSW) pioneering project, “Transitioning to Sustainable Infrastructure through Future Proofing Asset Management.” This project underscores NSW’s commitment to resilience in asset management by integrating sustainability and future-proofing principles into their asset management practices.
The webinar will cover:
- An overview of the “Towards Net Zero Emissions Freight Policy,” showcasing NSW’s leadership in sustainable practices within the transport industry.
- The strategies employed by TfNSW to ensure whole-of-life asset resilience, emphasizing sustainable practices and strategic planning.
- The tangible benefits of whole-of-life resilience principles, including reduced asset replacement frequency, heightened customer satisfaction, minimal network disruption, and improved environmental outcomes.
- The multifaceted approach to decarbonizing the freight industry, including route optimization, energy-efficient vehicles, and idle time reduction, contributing to prolonged asset lifecycles and a resilient transport ecosystem.
Join us to learn about the key features and contributions of this project, including:
- The adoption of low-embodied carbon materials for infrastructure projects and the use of cleaner fuels for construction activities.
- The embedding of net-zero considerations in procurement decision-making processes and the establishment of sustainability requirements and performance indicators.
- The broader socio-economic benefits of optimizing the network for rail freight, including reduced road congestion, lower traffic-related accidents, and improved access to low- and zero-emission vehicles (LZEVs).
