As it keeps the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) in mind, Transnet Freight Rail (TFR) is hopeful that the upcoming International Heavy Haul Association (IHHA) conference will provide the State-owned entity with an opportunity to not just showcase South African capabilities and potential to the international community but also allow it to participate in knowledge-sharing opportunities to further improve its own strategies. The IHHA conference, to be held in Norway next month, will see the association’s 11 member companies join forces to collectively craft a 2030 vision for the heavy haul industry in light of the potentially disruptive changes associated with the 4IR.
