This method describes the procedure for the determination of the surface texture depth of road surfaces, by the sand patch technique. This method is only applicable to surface texture depths greater than 0.3 mm. This method was developed from BS…

Join us for a webinar that delves into the latest on connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) and the pivotal role that interaction with physical infrastructure plays in their integration into our transport system. In this session, we will present a…

For over a decade, the National Telematics Framework has been setting a benchmark as an effective regulatory framework for optimised vehicle movements, making Australia a world-leader in intelligent access management. The National Telematics…

These guidelines set out criteria that must be addressed in any application for an automated vehicle trial. The guidelines aim to provide clear guidance on matters that should be addressed by trialling organisations as part of the trialling process…

Between December 2023 and September 2024, Telstra, Optus and Vodafone will close their 3G networks to make room for new, faster services. The 3G network shutdown will affect vital equipment and services across the road transport sector. Devices that…
