TfNSW TS 00088 Minimum Requirements for Contractor Vehicles (TS 00088)
specification, published by Transport for NSW, TS 00088:1.0, issued 26 August 2024, effective 26 August 2025. New South Wales.
Six obligations about the machines, not the people. Registration, plant registration, operating information, the daily inspection, the service record, and the equipment tier the contract manager picks. It binds contracts let on or after 26 August 2025.
6 obligations, clause by clause.
Six obligations about contractor vehicles and plant. Three are held as not collected in the register because the vehicle register carries no expiry or equipment field today, and the table says so rather than implying the register sees it.
