Specific Intelligent Access Program Applications
Whilst Transport Certification Australia administers the IAP and certifies IAP Service Providers, the actual establishment and operation of specific IAP Applications are managed by jurisdictions.
TCA working closely with each Jurisdiction to ensure transport operators are aware of all the specific IAP Applications that are available. A summary of each IAP Application is listed below. The list will be updated as Jurisdictions develop their IAP Applications.
For more information on each IAP Application, simply follow the links to the Jurisdiction managing the IAP Application that is of interest to you.
Road and Traffic Authority (RTA), New South Wales
The RTA will offer transport operators the benefit of improved access arrangements if enrolled under the IAP. The first application of the IAP in New South Wales will be to monitor the compliance of vehicles operating at Higher Mass Limits (HML). The New South Wales Government will expand the HML network in New South Wales in stages from 1 July 2006, providing a significant increase in the economic utilisation of the road network.

Department of Transport and Main Roads (DTMR), Queensland
DTMR has implemented the IAP to provide:
- improved road access for Higher Mass Limits vehicles
- specific access for Non-Standard Freight vehicles from the brewery to the Port of Brisbane
- specified Performance Based Standards (PBS) vehicles from Toowoomba to the Port of Brisbane
DTMR is also working towards:
- implementing policy to monitor Special Purpose Vehicles (e.g large cranes) within a 6 month transition period from 1 November 2010
- using the IAP to facilitate better access for other specific permitted vehicles

VicRoads, Victoria
The Intelligent Access Program (IAP) commenced in Victoria in November 2008.
The use of IAP in Victoria as a condition of access to the road network is based on an assessment of risk. Where the application of IAP mitigates risks to safety or road infrastructure, IAP is applied as a condition of access.
IAP in Victoria currently applies to a number of different vehicle types. These classes of vehicles have been evaluated and are required to participate in the IAP:
