Round 11 is now open for submissions and will close on 16 March 2026. This year’s funding round places a strong emphasis on harnessing emerging technologies and forward‑thinking approaches. We’re encouraging projects that explore new digital tools, data-driven insights, automation, advanced safety systems, and other innovations that can transform the way the industry operates.

By working collaboratively with industry, government, and the community, we aim to unlock new opportunities for safer, smarter, and more sustainable heavy vehicle operations.

Funding is available for projects that aim to:

Enhance safety outcomes for heavy vehicle operators and road users.
Harness new technologies and innovation.
Build capability and knowledge across the sector.
Deliver long-term benefits for the freight and logistics network.
