Guide to Bridge Technology Part 7 discusses the structural management of existing bridges in practical technical terms. It documents practices relevant to forward works programming, inspection, recording, reporting, evaluation of bridge condition…

This webinar presents the work involved in developing a standardised comparative risk assessment method for assessing life safety risk of dangerous goods being routed through the tunnel or via an alternative surface route.

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)…

How do drivers respond to the iconic tunnel design features included in the NorthConnex road tunnel project? What were the objectives of the designs and have the designs achieved these objectives? How do the designs affect driver behaviour? The…

This report documents the findings from a research study, which aimed to investigate driver behaviour and perceptions while driving through a simulated version of the Sydney NorthConnex (NCX) road tunnel and evaluate the effectiveness of aesthetic…

This report documents the findings from a research study which aimed to validate the use of a virtual reality (VR) driving simulator to study driving behaviour in a real road tunnel.

Austroads has recently completed a project to identify best practice for road tunnel wall panels and finishes to ensure the products achieve performance, access, maintenance, and durability requirements. The best practice research provided through…
