Optimising Project Delivery Performance (Accelerated Projects)
This report provides practical advice and examples of ways to successfully accelerate transport infrastructure projects and programs up to $500 million. An accelerated project or program has delivery expedited, typically in response to external…
Methodology for Comparing Dangerous Goods Risks in Road Tunnels to Those on Alternative Routes: Best Practice Review
This report is one of the three reports produced as part of a project undertaken to establish a comparative risk assessment method for assessing whether a tunnel route is safer than a surface route for the road transit of dangerous goods (DG)…
Methodology for Comparing Dangerous Goods Risks in Road Tunnels to Those on Alternative Routes: Case Study Using DG-QRAM in the Australasian Context
This report is one of the three reports produced as part of a project undertaken to establish a comparative risk assessment method for assessing whether a tunnel route is safer than a surface route for the road transit of dangerous goods (DG)…
Methodology for Comparing Dangerous Goods Risks in Road Tunnels to Those on Alternative Routes: Manual for Using DG-QRAM in the Australasian Context
This report is the second of the three reports produced as part of a project undertaken to establish a comparative risk assessment method for assessing whether a tunnel route is safer than a surface route for the road transit of dangerous goods (DG)…
Minimum Requirements for Traffic Signs, Traffic Signals and Line Markings
This report identifies and discusses physical infrastructure practices that Austroads member agencies could change to improve connected and automated vehicle (CAV) support. It incorporates a review of previous Austroads publications that…
Development of Machine-Learning Decision-Support Tools for Pavement Asset Management
This report explores the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine-Learning (ML) in pavement asset management and details a methodology for developing new use-cases. While there are some existing uses of AI and ML technology in pavement asset…
Review of Impact of Service Authorities on Infrastructure Projects
Third party assets on road and rail projects have a significant impact on major projects. This report documents a project to reduce the negative impacts of third-party assets on the successful delivery of road infrastructure projects across…
Supporting Cloud Connected Road Users
Cloud connected road users (CCRUs) are travellers utilising information from portable and fixed in-vehicle devices to assist with trip planning, and warning and advice when travelling. This report examines various cloud connected road user data…
Use of Perceptual Countermeasure Treatments to Reduce Crash Risks in Tunnels
This report evaluates selected low-cost perceptual countermeasure (PCM) treatments in tunnel environments. PCM treatments are used to reduce crash risk by improving driver speed behaviour, alertness and lane discipline within tunnels. Two key…
Minimum Physical Infrastructure Standard for the Operation of Automated Driving
These reports provide guidance on infrastructure investment to help transport agencies achieve timely, consistent and adequate infrastructure readiness for the operation of current and future automated vehicles. Physical road infrastructure such as…
