Webinar: Implications of Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR) Systems for Road Operators
This webinar, presented on 23 October 2018, provides an overview of an Austroads study into Traffic Sign Recognition Systems in Australia and New Zealand.
Harmonisation of Pavement Markings and National Pavement Marking Specification
This report documents a project undertaken to achieve national harmonisation through the development of national performance specification/criteria for pavement markings. The project investigated: longitudinal and transverse linemarking types and…
Implications of Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR) Systems for Road Operators
Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR) is an in-vehicle technology which attempts to read and interpret roadside traffic signs. Vehicle manufacturers are moving towards enabling speed assistance and automated driving using TSR systems and the benefits of…
Webinar: Benefits of Safety and Traffic Management Technologies
This webinar, presented on 19 June 2018, summarises the results of a domestic and international review of recently-developed ITS technologies. It covers: technologies that were evaluated, including a qualitative indication of their costs and…
Calibration of Bitumen Sprayers: Volumetric Calibration of Bitumen Pumping Systems
This test method is for bitumen sprayers as specified in AGPT/T530 Calibration of bitumen sprayers: 
Viscosity of Calibration Fluid
This test method sets out the procedure for validating the calibration fluid. The calibration fluid is used for volumetric calibration of bitumen sprayer pumps (AGPT/T531), and also for two methods of determining transverse distribution of bitumen…
Calibration of Bitumen Sprayers: Transverse Distribution by Fixed Pit Facility
This test method is for bitumen sprayers as specified in AGPT/T530 Calibration of bitumen sprayers: general introduction and list of methods. It sets out the procedures for determining the transverse distribution of bitumen sprayers, and is based on…
Calibration of Bitumen Sprayers: Transverse Distribution by Field Mat
This test method is for bitumen sprayers as specified in AGPT/T530 Calibration of bitumen sprayers: general introduction and list of methods. It sets out the procedures for determining the transverse distribution of bitumen sprayers, and is based on…
Calibration of Bitumen Sprayers: Transverse Distribution by Portable Trough
This test method is for bitumen sprayers as specified in AGPT/T530 Calibration of bitumen sprayers: general introduction and list of methods. It sets out the procedures for determining the transverse distribution of bitumen sprayers, and is based on…
Road Speed and Distance Calibration
This test method sets out the procedure for determining the accuracy of road speed indicators used on bitumen sprayers. The road speed of the bitumen sprayer is used in conjunction with the pump volumetric output to enable bituminous materials to be…
