ARN Parts ways with Vic Lorusso

ARN has parted ways with traffic reporter and media personality Vic Lorusso, axing its long-running commercial contract with the Australian Traffic Network (ATN).

ARN has ended its agreement with ATN/GTN, concluding Lorusso’s long run as the “eye in the sky” traffic reporter for Sydney radio. ARN will move its traffic reporting in-house, shifting the duties to its own on-air announcers or newsreaders.

Despite losing the ARN partnership, Lorusso remains the Global Chief Executive Officer of Global Traffic Network (GTN), a role he stepped into in late 2025.
