This report provides a synthesis of key safety solutions as well as issues that need to be considered when effectively addressing safety on urban mixed use arterial routes.

Mixed use urban arterials account for a large proportion of high?severity…

This report summarises the results of experiments undertaken to understand the practices required to enable a 100-year design life of bridges in an aggressive environment.

The experimental work was informed by an extensive literature review and…

Despite the fact that the occurrence of large earthquakes in Australia is rare, the consequences can be fatal and costly. The performance of bridges during and after earthquake events is critical in ensuring that road networks remain operational and…

These guidelines provide essential information regarding Buried corrugated metal structures (BCMS) from the design process, installation, in-service monitoring, through to maintenance and repair procedures. BCMS have been used in Australia as an…

ARRB Group has completed a major Austroads research program to assess risk involving road, traffic and roadside infrastructure. The results provide road authorities with more effective tools to reduce road crashes and injuries. The objectives for…

This report provides a summary of dynamic testing carried out on approximately 80 bridges in Australia and New Zealand. It compares the results of these tests with the current Dynamic Load Allowance (DLA) provisions in the Australian Bridge Design…

Concrete is the dominant material of construction in the more than 12,000 bridges and major culverts managed by road authorities in Australia and New Zealand. With an ageing asset, concrete durability is becoming an increasingly significant issue…
