Simulator Evaluation of Aesthetic Design Features in NorthConnex Road Tunnel: Study 1
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…
Validation of a Driving Simulator for Road Tunnel Research: Study 2
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.
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…
Suggested Good Practice for Road Tunnel Emergency Egress Signage
This report provides guidance on consistent, efficient and safe design of emergency egress signage and operations in road tunnels. While there are Australian Standards relating to emergency egress signage, these were not originally intended for use…
National ITS Architecture Stage 2 Module 2: Mapping FRAME Content to TOGAF
The National ITS Architecture FRAME Content to TOGAF Mapping project was commissioned by Austroads as a key project in stage 2 of the National ITS Architecture development.
Reliability-centred Maintenance Strategy and Framework for Management of Intelligent Transport System Assets
This report provides a reliability-centred maintenance (RCM) strategy and framework to manage intelligent transport system (ITS) assets.
National Strategic Weigh-in-motion Network
This report provides a methodology to establish an Australian (and potentially a New Zealand) weigh?in?motion (WIM) network.
ITS Architecture Roadmap
The National ITS Architecture Roadmap provides an overview of Austroads’ activities and timeframes to progress the development and implementation of the National ITS Architecture. The roadmap:
ITS Performance and Benchmarking
This report presents a consistent methodology to evaluate and report ITS asset performance from the road user perspective.
Development of Product Acceptance Techniques for Road Network Devices
This report documents a harmonised Austroads product acceptance process for ITS products in the road network. The process covers six steps including determination of performance requirements based on agreed key performance indicators (KPIs),…
