NSW opens new high-speed EV charging corridor on major freight route

New South Wales has commissioned a new high-speed charging corridor linking key regional and metropolitan freight routes. The upgrade includes ultra-rapid charging hubs positioned to improve route certainty for both passenger EV drivers and light commercial operators. Transport planners said co-locating chargers near existing service infrastructure is improving utilisation and reducing range anxiety for long-distance users. Fleet operators have welcomed the rollout, citing improved scheduling flexibility and lower operating costs for electrified routes.
