Standardised Permit Numbering Scheme

A standardised numbering scheme is used in the NHVR Portal which groups your cases and routes to one permit ‘prefix’ number.

For example, cases within "Permit: 90051" will have a case number that is prefixed with the permit number "Case: 90050r1v1." This makes it easier to track multiple routes and cases to your permit which share the same vehicle configuration.

How the numbering scheme works

Prefix

The 'prefix' is the permit folder (eg. 90051), generated when the first application is made for a specific vehicle configuration. Any additional permit applications for a vehicle with the exact configuration (prime mover/trailer, mass and dimension) will adopt this permit folder number.

 

R

'r' is the Route number.

This will change as a new route is added to the permit folder number. eg. 90050r2v1 would be the next route number if a new route was added to the permit for this vehicle.

 

V

'v' is the Version of that Route.

This will change as new versions of the route are added eg. 90050r1v2 would be the next version of the route (this will appear when a route is amended).

You can have multiple Routes that are current for a vehicle in a permit folder, however, there is only a single current Version for any unique route.
