VicRoads part privatisation

VicRoads to be partly-privatised in major shake up

VicRoads will be partly privatised by the Victorian Government later this year, in a decision that has been branded ‘damaging’ and ‘irresponsible’ by the opposition and unions.

Treasurer Tim Pallas on Friday announced the private sector would part-run the licencing, registration and plates divisions at VicRoads, but the Government would continue to maintain ownership of VicRoads.

Mr Pallas said it was “not privatisation” but “effectively a partnership” and the Government would keep motorists’ data and VicRoads customer service centres would not be impacted.

This one is interesting, while VicRoads are absolutely useless as per any government road authority, I don't think the answer is part privatisation - this will just make our registration costs go upwards at best.

Personally I think they need a refresh from top to bottom starting with a management team who has the mandate to rebuild it from the ground up.

What's your thoughts on privatisation of VicRoads?
