Webinar: Methodology for Comparing Dangerous Goods Risk in Road Tunnels to Those on Alternative Routes
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.
Webinar: Guidelines for Incident Response Vehicles and Truck-Mounted Attenuators
This webinar presents the results of the Austroads project that developed guidelines for incident response vehicles and truck-mounted attenuators.
Webinar: Changes to the National Heavy Vehicle Driver Competency Framework
Transport Ministers have agreed in-principle to an improved, nationally‑consistent approach to the training and licence progression of heavy vehicle drivers. The approved changes are designed to increase the safety and job‑readiness of heavy vehicle…
