Port growth needs transport spending: ACCC

AUSTRALIA'S competition watchdog has recommended reforms to ensure ongoing business growth at the nation's major ports.

In its 15th annual monitoring report of stevedoring, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission found that the sector is poised for further development but will need assistance.

"The ACCC considers that further economic reform is required to ensure that related transport issues do not create bottlenecks in and around our growing container ports, and supports initiatives by various governments and other agencies to address these issues," ACCC Chairman Rod Sims said.

The recommendations include government spending on heavy vehicle road provisions, and encouraging truck companies to access port terminals at off-peak times.

Mr Sims said the considerations are important as Australia welcomes new port activity with an additional terminal opened in Brisbane early in 2013, soon to be joined by another at Sydney's Port Botany.

The Victorian government is also tendering out the rights for a new terminal in Melbourne.
