Erskine Park. Linfox workshop to open in June

The largest privately owned road transport group in Australia, Linfox, expects to open its new workshop adjacent to its NSW head office, at Erskine Park, in June, as part of a substantial investment to create the company’s presence in Sydney’s west. It will feature the latest service equipment, including modern water-recycling truck-wash facilities, energy efficient lighting and diesel refuelling facility. The workshop is being designed in conjunction with Linfox’s customer, BlueScope, to incorporate their Butler Building System, and learn how this system may be used in future Linfox building projects.

Eastern Creek. Linfox's $27 million facility

Linfox expects to open a $27 million facility at Erskine Park this week. "Big trucking operations require a lot of support property for vehicle washing, parking, maintenance and fuelling. You get to such a scale you may as well own your own fuelling depots,” said chief executive Michael Byrne. Linfox has a fleet of more than 5000 vehicles and plans to add more.
