Transport and logistics

We have a depth and breadth of resources across all aspects of the transport industry and advise a number of Australian state government transport agencies and corporations and also some of the country’s best known transport and logistics companies.

This experience has given us an in-depth understanding of risk allocation in major contracts and key issues affecting the transport sector in areas such as safety, environment, competition law, compliance and government tendering issues.

Our expertise covers:

  • all aspects of contract preparation, negotiation and advice relating to rail operations (above and below track)
  • rolling stock procurement
  • airports
  • infrastructure
  • rail (freight and passenger including trams)
  • road and logistics contracts generally
  • seaports and shipping
  • tollways, freeways and tunnels.

We have also acted in a number of significant sales and purchases in the transport industry in recent times.
