INTERSTATE
THE
MARKET
The Interstate network division has two
primary objectives:
••
Maintain growth in the already strong
East West market
••
Achieve a major increase in market
share with strong growth in the North
South (Melbourne-Brisbane) market
The East West market continued to
perform well given the strong economic
growth in Western Australia and returned
to a market share of land transport in
excess of 80%.
Increased minerals traffic in South
Australia is a welcome challenge and a
further growth opportunity in this market.
We expect a significant increase in the
growth as we bring a number of new
projects online in 2012-13.
