FEATURED IN THIS ISSUE
Welcome to spring and along with (hopefully) some sunshine and warmth the flurry of activity that is club display picnic and Christmas party season. It is so hard to be able to attend all of the offerings that are available during this busy time of the year – two of my clubs have their premier display days on the same date but it is fabulous to be spoilt of choice and great to see our club cars on the road and participating in club life. There has also been much activity within the AOMC, allow me to update you on some of our pieces of work..…read more

Announcement from: Victorian Department of Transport and Planning
Department of Transport and Planning is introducing a new customer website on 15 August, called ‘Transport Victoria’. This change follows the announcement of the joint-venture model for VicRoads in mid-2022.
To all,
I’m writing to let you know that we are introducing a new customer website on 15 August, called ‘Transport Victoria’. This change follows the announcement of the joint-venture model for VicRoads in mid-2022, and involves separating our website information to reflect this.
Our new Transport Victoria website will house information about how to stay safe while moving around our roads, road management and upgrades, active transport and registration and licencing schemes, medical review, heavy vehicle access, tolls, fines, and drink-driving fines.
The VicRoads website VicRoads registration and licensing : VicRoads will be the place where Victorians go to access registration and licencing services.
Your members will still be able to complete registration and licensing transactions as usual by visiting the VicRoads website VicRoads registration and licensing : VicRoads and their personal myVicRoads account.
As we introduce our new website you may notice changes to some VicRoads documents used for registration and licensing transactions. Over time letters, certificates, and publications will be updated as required. Your members can continue to use existing forms and they will be accepted.
Once our new website goes live – I will send you more information in regard navigating the website changes so you can continue to find what you need. In the meantime, if you have any questions, please email rpspolicy@transport.vic.gov.au
