Operators are being told to prepare for the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator's Roadworthiness survey. 

The N-R-S launches this month and will run for approximately 12 weeks across the nation. 

The results will be compared to surveys carried out in 2016 and 2021, to determine where the industry has made improvements and what issues need more attention. 

Rural Reporter Emily Minney has spoken with Chief of Operations Paul Salvati about the survey
