Toll announces $170 million investment to support Bass Strait trade

Toll Group, Asia Pacific’s leading logistics provider, announced today it is investing $170 million to build two new ships to support trade between Victoria and Tasmania and to meet the demands of continued growth.

The new, purpose-built ships, operating between Burnie, Tasmania and Melbourne, Victoria, will provide 40 per cent more freight capacity, more opportunities to transport refrigerated freight for Tasmania’s growing chilled export market and more flexibility for customer deliveries.

The new vessels will be available in late 2018 and will replace Toll’s existing ships, continuing to operate overnight services, six days per week.
