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.
Incident Response Vehicle Design and Procurement and the Use of Truck Mounted Attenuators in Incident Response
This report examines incident response vehicle (IRV) design and procurement, and the use of truck-mounted attenuators (TMA) in incident response. It documents the research and stakeholder consultation undertaken to inform the development of…
Guidelines for the Use of Truck-Mounted Attenuators in Incident Response
Use of truck-mounted attenuators (TMAs) improves responder and road user safety around incident sites. The Guidelines for the Use of Truck-Mounted Attenuators in Incident Response are intended to provide direction for practitioners where positive…
Guidelines for the Design and Procurement of Incident Response Vehicles
Incident response vehicles (IRVs) are used to attend incident sites to make the sites safer and provide recovery services to affected networks, vehicles and persons. They are tailor-made vehicles designed with specific considerations for the safety…
Webinar: Austroads Vehicle Classification Scheme – Measuring Active Transport
Austroads has developed an extended vehicle classification scheme (EVCS) to enable improved understanding and monitoring of the evolving vehicle mix on Australian and New Zealand roads in traffic and transport surveys. This builds upon the existing…
Webinar: Austroads Vehicle Classification Scheme – Light Vehicles
Austroads has developed an extended vehicle classification scheme (EVCS) to enable improved understanding and monitoring of the evolving vehicle mix on Australian and New Zealand roads in traffic and transport surveys. This builds upon the existing…
Webinar: Austroads Vehicle Classification Scheme – Heavy Vehicles
Austroads has developed an extended vehicle classification scheme (EVCS) to enable improved understanding and monitoring of the evolving vehicle mix on Australian and New Zealand roads in traffic and transport surveys. This builds upon the existing…
Austroads Extended Vehicle Classification Scheme for Traffic and Transport Surveys
Austroads extended vehicle classification scheme builds on the influential 1994 scheme. The extended scheme provides greater granularity across the 12 classes in the 1994 scheme. It also provides a new classes for: active transport to address the…
Background to the Extended Austroads Vehicle Classification Scheme for Traffic and Transport Surveys
Safe, efficient and sustainable road transport relies on the accurate classification and identification of vehicles operating on our road networks. Accurate vehicle surveys support the planning and management of road assets and the regulation of…
Multimodal Incident Management: Reference Architecture
This report presents a set of reference architecture models, content and guidance for use by road agencies to identify, plan and improve their Multimodal Incident Management (MMIM) capabilities. MMIM is defined as the resolution of an unplanned…
