25.01.2022 Day One of MiniProf training held in Perth

13.01.2022 Here's what it took to research, develop, and manufacture Victoria's new railway sleepers made from recycled plastic waste The new sleepers have a lifespan of... up to 50 years - three times longer than traditional timber sleepers. Rigorous testing indicates they meet all Australian safety standards. Oh, and they can also be recycled at the end of their use! Watch below, or dig deeper in our special feature https://sustainability.vic.gov.au/recycled-plastic-sleepers .. Institute of Railway Technology Monash University Public Transport Victoria V/Line

11.01.2022 Very informative presentation from Ravi Ravitharan, Director, Monash Institute of Railway Technology (IRT), on how Monash IRT is looking at using drones to augment its extensive remote inspection capability. Big data in action.

05.01.2022 Over the past three years, we have collaborated with Monash University's Institute of Railway Technology and Mildura-based manufacturer Integrated Recycling to ...develop new recycled plastic railway sleepers for Victoria. The outcome is a great example of how government, industry, universities and rail authorities can work together to create a circular economy, right here in Victoria. See where the new sleepers are being installed at: https://sustainability.vic.gov.au/recycled-plastic-sleepers
