Making the site available to shipping companies is expected to drive down truck movements across inner-west suburbs.

Victoria’s long-running effort to get trucks off roads in the inner west will be boosted by a new government deal leasing the site of the old Melbourne Market to the port for 42 years.

Making the site available to shipping companies is expected to drive down truck movements across inner-west suburbs by allowing them to store containers next to the docks rather than forcing trips through Footscray, Yarraville, Tottenham, Brooklyn and Seddon.Martin Wurt, of the Maribyrnong Truck Action Group, said the announcement would be welcomed by locals alongside the transport industry.

Port of Melbourne chief executive Saul Cannon said the site’s location would allow it to transform the entire precinct and improve the supply chain as Melbourne’s population grew to the biggest in Australia. “Through this lease, the West Gate Tunnel and our investment in truck ban enforcement technology, we’re getting trucks off local roads in Melbourne’s west and returning them to local people,” Footscray Labor MP Katie Hall said.

This was partly driven by the Commonwealth’s decision to prioritise a similar terminal in Melbourne’s north instead. Both were proposed to handle the double-stacked trains that will travel the country along the national Inland Rail corridor.
