Truck Central offers minimal kerbing and obstructions for the easy and smooth manoeuvring of road trains. The design has been planned in full consultation with NT Road Transport Association ensuring it is ‘fit for purpose’.

Truck Central provides a rare opportunity for businesses to cluster around and take advantage of these unique transport initiatives within a purpose built estate.
