The Department of Transport and Planning (DTP) is updating the local ports regulations.

The regulations help local port managers operate local ports safely and effectively so that port users can use and enjoy them.The current regulations are due to expire in mid-2025, so DTP is now reviewing them and proposing updates.

DTP is seeking feedback on the proposed regulations from local port managers, port users, and the community.

Please have your say and tell us what matters to you

All feedback received at Engage Victoria by 11:59pm on Sunday, 27 April 2025 will be considered as DTP develops the final Regulations.

Please visit Port Management (Local Ports) Regulations 2025 | Engage Victoria to provide your feedback.
