Keep On Moving

On Schedule is the series where Dave McCoid, editorial director at New Zealand Trucking Media, speaks with the National Road Carriers senior team and guests on a broad selection of topical industry subjects as well as the work the association does – the wins, the challenges, and the strategies taken on key issues of the day.
This month, Failing to Plan is Planning to Fail. CEO of National Road Carriers, Justin Tighe-Umbers and host Dave McCoid sit down with Geoff Cooper, chief executive of the New Zealand Infrastructure Commission  Te Waihanga. The commission's 30-year National Infrastructure Plan released earlier this year painted a clear picture allowing us to align ambition with actual ability. This is a discussion no one should miss.

In the OEM update, we talk with a broad cross section of original equipment suppliers to the New Zealand industry.
Jon Doyle is general manager at Christchurch trailer builder Adams and Currie. In its 50th year, the Canterbury enterprise is today part of the Fruehauf NZ operations. Jon is always good for an upbeat and engaging chat. 

We need to find out more about the new world heading our way. Powering On talks to people in the know and those who have already headed off on a new propulsion journey. We aim to make it not too techy, delivering useful information for those responsible for delivering our new tomorrow.
This month we chat with Aaron Gillan, Divisional Manager at YHI New Zealand. A long standing name in the energy capture, storage, and discharge space, Aaron gives a wonderful insight into key requirements when embarking on an alternative energy journey, as well as what to watch out for. 

Clear the Air is the section where co-host Dave McCoid and his good mate and Environmental champion Lindsay Wood discuss the climate and envirionmental issues of the day, as they should be discussed - respectfully!
This month Lindsay and Dave chat about Dave's recent editorial on vulnerable road users, and who actually comprise that social sub-set, as well as investigating the concept of a transport ecosystem.
