Webinar: Optimising Project Delivery Performance – Accelerated Projects
Over the last decade there has been a trend by a number of governments to invest more heavily in transport infrastructure and systems, and to accelerate programs of work. This has been a response to various ‘burning platforms’ including transport…
Webinar: Guide to Project Delivery Parts 2 and 3 Update
Two parts of the Austroads Guide to Project Delivery &ndash
Guide to Project Delivery Part 2: Planning and Control
Guide to Project Delivery Part 2: Planning and Control gives guidance to project delivery practitioners on a number of concepts relating to planning and control of the delivery phase, as opposed to the preceding initiation phase and subsequent…

Optimising Project Delivery Performance
Austroads commissioned this study to investigate the current challenges and issues affecting the delivery of transport infrastructure projects and the consequential impacts on value for money, timeliness of delivery, agency and political reputation.…
Classifying, Measuring and Valuing the Benefits of Place on the Transport System
This report explores and draws together the ways in which place is classified, measured and valued from a transport perspective. Through a literature review, the study captured the way place was being measured and valued by a range of different…
Improved Laboratory Characterisation of the Deformation Properties of Granular Materials

This report examines the capacity of the extra-large wheel-tracking laboratory test method to predict the in-service performance of granular materials.

Rutting is a common distress mode of unbound granular bases under thin bituminous surfacings.

Five…

Planning for the Hopkins River Bridge Project
If we knew the work that goes into the planning and pre-construction activities of a new bridge project
Safe System in the Planning Process
The Safe System concept has the objective of eliminating deaths and serious injuries, with the guiding principle that everyone, including planners, share responsibility for creating a safe road system. Good planning and design sets the foundation…
Effect of Moisture Content and Laboratory Preparation Conditions on the Permanent Deformation of Unbound Granular Materials

This report documents research to validate the wheel-tracking approach as a complementary means of evaluating the rutting performance of granular bases. Firstly, the influence of the moisture content on the laboratory wheel-tracking performances is…
