The Victorian Transport Association and Shipping Australia agreed yesterday to form two working groups to tackle Melbourne's empty container crisis.
The information, visibility and exchange group will monitor and assess technology trials with a view to raising park visibility in the supply chain and park operations.
The other group, covering park operations, will look at performance, operating hours, managing truck queues and developing industry wide solutions.
While the VTA made it clear it was seeking an industry solution, deputy chief executive Neil Chambers asked both the Port of Melbourne Corporation and the Victorian Government for support with facilitation.
PoMC chief executive Steven Bradford indicated the port would back the working groups.
