Webinar: Connected and Automated Vehicles Open Data
This webinar, presented on 13 November 2018, outlines the strategic context on the supply of road operator data for connected and automated vehicles use in Australia, and the recommended next steps to navigate through this developing field.
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: Appropriate Use of Marginal and Non-standard Materials in Road Construction and Maintenance
This webinar, presented on 17 July 2018, outlines ways to optimise the use of marginal and non-standard materials and gain best value from the successful performance of standard materials. It covers: applying a proposed assessment process to a wider…
Webinar: Connected and Automated Vehicles Trials
This webinar, presented on 3 July 2018, provides an overview of the progress and key lessons learnt from three major Connected and Automated Vehicles (CAV) trials in Australia. It covers: ARRB/ConnectEast/VicRoads development of road certification…
Appropriate Use of Marginal and Non-standard Materials in Road Construction and Maintenance
This report considers the use of marginal and non-standard materials in road construction and maintenance. It concludes that considerable evidence exists, both nationally and internationally, that supports the wider use of marginal and non-standard…
Investigation of the Load Damage Exponent of Unbound Granular Materials Under Accelerated Loading
This report details the experimental program, analysis and findings of the assessment of the impacts of axle mass increases on road deterioration for sprayed seal surfaced unbound granular pavements. Load-damage exponents ranged between two and four…
Improved Distress Viscosity Model for Reseal Intervention
An existing model predicted binder life by combining a binder hardening (increase in viscosity) model and a distress viscosity model. Inputs for the two models were site temperature parameters, binder durability (resistance to hardening) and seal…
Development of an Aggregate Size Term for a Reseal Intervention Model
An existing model predicted maximum seal life by combining a binder hardening (increase in viscosity) model and a distress viscosity model. Inputs for the two models were site temperature parameters and binder durability (resistance to hardening).…
