TNT Service Interruption Notice
: Monday, 28 February 2011Monday, 28 February 2011 – WA bound freight delayed due to ongoing flooding and railway closures.
TNT regrets to inform our Customers that we are currently experiencing delays in Perth bound Day Definite and Specialised Services freight originating from Sydney and Melbourne which was collected from Tuesday, 22nd February 2011 onwards. These delays are due to the closure of a large section of rail track at Nurina, approximately 400 kms East of Kalgoorlie, as a result of ongoing flooding.
As is standard TNT procedure, contingency planning is underway and we are focussing our resources on delivering freight as quickly as possible. Subject to improving weather conditions full track re-opening is scheduled for late Wednesday or Thursday this week. In addition, we anticipate freight departing Sydney and Melbourne from this evening onwards will avoid delays.
Whilst TNT is unable to provide accurate ETA’s at this time, we are doing everything in our power to mitigate the inconvenience caused, and we strongly recommend Customers utilise our Priority and Sameday services to ship any urgent freight in and out of Western Australia.
