ROAD TRANSPORT REFORM (MASS AND LOADING) REGULATIONS 1995 - NOTES

1995 No. 56*1* ROAD TRANSPORT REFORM (MASS AND LOADING) REGULATIONS

- Dated 22 March 1995

*1* Notified in the Commonwealth of Australia Gazette on 29 March 1995. 
                               NOTE
The purpose of these Regulations is to help manage road wear and the risk that
vehicles and their loads may pose to road users.
The Regulations are intended to match load limits on vehicles with the current
capacity of roads and bridges.
The Regulations therefore impose mass limits for vehicles and combinations,
including their loads, as well as mass limits for individual tyres, wheels,
axles and axle groups.  The Regulations also impose rules about the size of a
load, how far it may project from the vehicle, warning signals for certain
projections, and securing loads.
