The Federal Government has announced $22 million for Wodonga TAFE’s Logical Innovation Precinct.
The heavy vehicle training precinct funding will change how heavy vehicle operators are trained, improving safe driving practices and better equipping them for the changing transport and logistics industry.
This investment will support construction of a heavy vehicle offroad obstacle circuit, a heavy vehicle repair and maintenance workshop, upgrades to external infrastructure, and the installation of a state-of-the-art cyber range for simulated courses.
The upgraded facility will allow Wodonga TAFE to expand its Heavy Vehicle Technology Program, which is expected to attract up to 1,200 students in four years.
Construction commences in 2024 and is expected to be completed in 2026.
