Anthony Wing has been reappointed as Point to Point Transport Commissioner for another five years – his second term in the role.
Commissioner Wing has held the role since 1 July 2019 and is now contracted to continue in the position until 30 June 2029.
The Point to Point Transport Commissioner administers and enforces point to point transport law to improve safety and encourage a more adaptive, innovative and competitive market for the whole industry.
He reports directly to the Minister for Transport and oversees one of the largest passenger transport modes in NSW, with more than 100,000 workers across taxis, hire vehicles and rideshare serving two million customers every year.
Commissioner Wing has an extensive background in regulation with roles at the Australian Communications and Media Authority and the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission.
Prior to leading the Point to Point Transport Commission, he was Executive Director of Policy at Transport for NSW where he played a leading role in the establishment of the current regulatory framework for the industry that came into effect on 1 November 2017.
“The point to point transport industry in NSW has seen some big changes over the past decade. Commissioner Wing has played a big part in regulating the industry during a challenging period,” said Minister for Transport, Jo Haylen.
“I congratulate the Commissioner on his reappointment and look forward to working with him to continue to advocate on behalf all taxi and rideshare passengers and for the best interests of the point to point industry.”
