Ports Victoria is a Victorian Government authority that manages the safe transit of vessels into and out of Victoria’s commercial ports. It provides maritime expertise, informing the strategic development and operations within Victoria’s commercial ports and waterways.
Its creation was a key recommendation of the State Government’s independent review of the Victorian ports system conducted in 2020-21. It is the amalgamation of the former Victorian Ports Corporation (Melbourne) (VPCM) and Victorian Regional Channels Authority (VRCA).
Ports Victoria started operations on 1 July 2021 and is headquartered in Geelong.
