A draft Technical Reference Guide (TRG) to help address adverse vehicle interactions in the NSW mining industry was released for comment for a five week period ending on 9 March 2025. 

The draft TRG - Roads or other vehicle operating areas principal hazard management plan for surface and open cut mining operations was developed by NSW Resources in consultation with the Adverse Vehicle Interactions Advisory Committee, which includes representatives from the NSW Minerals Council, Cement Concrete and Aggregates Australia, the Mining and Energy Union and the Australian Workers Union.

The Resources Regulator is currently considering the feedback obtained through the consultation and expects to finalise the TRG in May 2025.
