TRANSURBAN has joined the RACV Energy Breakthrough as a sponsor for 2006. The TRANSURBAN support will be directed to improving the electronic timing system and the way we display and publish results.
TransurbanÕs Managing Director said the partnership was a natural fit for TRANSURBAN Ð a company that introduced fully electronic tolling technology in Australia and has recently been recognised as a world leader in sustainability by a leading
sustainability index.
ÒAs the owner and manager of some of AustraliaÕs most advanced toll roads, TRANSURBAN has a strong interest in reducing the impact transportation has on the environment through innovation and technologyÓ, said TransurbanÕs Managing Director, Kim Edwards.
ÒWeÕre proud to support the RACV Energy Breakthrough as part of our broader commitment to working with others in the transport sector to help identify solutions that will reduce the impact of greenhouse gas emissions from vehiclesÓ, he said.
We’re expecting one of the biggest and best events in the sixteen year history of the ÒBreakthrough’. Schools have been busy preparing their vehicles all year and now as they ramp up their training programs you can feel the excitement building. Thousands of people will make their way to Maryborough in November for this yearÕs RACV Energy Breakthrough. Preparation is important and the latest newsletter contains a great deal of information that schools need to be aware of as they finalise their campaigns.
