Steel in bridge construction in Australia has declined significantly over the last 40 years from around 25% of bridges to as low as 5% of bridges in recent years. The main reasons for this have been the proliferation of precast prestressed concrete…

Local councils face the growing challenge, as road authorities, of maintaining and eventually replacing ageing bridges on regional and local roads.

VicRoads monitors a number of structures along its road networks through the structure monitoring program. In October 2014, VicRoads identified significant corrosion on two triple-cell corrugated metal culverts under the Mornington Peninsula Freeway…

This document provides a high level Privacy Impact Assessment forthe Cooperative Intelligent Transport System (C-ITS) data messagingsystem.

The ITS roadmap establishes a shared vision of ITS activities to achieve the effective development and deployment of ITS in Australia and New Zealand. Developed collaboratively by road agencies and ITS-Australia, the roadmap shows collective…

The management of Australia and New Zealand’s bridge stock involves the development of forward works programs for periods up to, and longer than, ten years into the future. The scheduling of maintenance, rehabilitation and replacement, forms part of…

This document defines the core functions of the C-ITS platform including their objectives and capabilities. It identifies user needs and describes how the system will operate.

This report documents the outcomes of an assessment of the emerging C-ITS standards and may be used to provide an understanding of the standards and provide guidance for determining which standards should be adopted locally.

The life-cycle performance of concrete bridges exposed to corrosion is investigated based on a set of time-variant probabilistic performance indicators including structural reliability, redundancy, robustness and resilience. The performance…

Infrastructure transportation systems play an important role in the sustained economic growth and social development of most countries. Bridges are key components in such systems. During their service life, bridges are subjected to progressive and/…
