Celebrating the winners of the 2026 ARISO Rail Safety Awards
This year’s ARISO Rail Safety Awards recipients demonstrated exceptional leadership and practical achievement across a range of areas, from operational safety improvements and technical innovation to workforce capability, collaboration and industry advancement.
Their work reflects the strength of expertise that exists across the rail sector and the shared commitment to creating a safer, more connected and more efficient national rail system.
ARISO congratulates all six winners on their well-deserved recognition and thanks them for their ongoing contribution to the industry. We also acknowledge all highly commended awardees, finalists and nominees whose work continues to drive positive change and strengthen rail safety outcomes across Australia.
The Awards reinforce the importance of collaboration between industry, government and regulators as the sector progresses major national interoperability and standards reform initiatives.
ARISO looks forward to continuing to celebrate the people and organisations leading the future of rail.
