This webinar, presented on 6 November 2017, provides an overview of the key changes to Guide to Traffic Management Part 6: Intersections, Interchanges and Crossings and the Guide to Road Design Part 4: Intersections and Crossings &ndash

This report investigates how the geometric design components of a roundabout may contribute to bicycle crashes.

This one-hour webinar provides an overview of the emerging trends in crash involvement among older road users, aged 75 years and over. It is presented by Dr Matthew Baldock, Deputy Director of the Centre for Automotive Safety Research at the…

This report identifies trends in crash involvement amongst older road users (aged 75+).

This report summarises the findings of a three-year study which reviewed the safety performance of selected road infrastructure elements and provided solutions that were more closely aligned with the Safe System ideal.

Heavy vehicle crashes across Australia and New Zealand continue to be a major road safety issue. There are road design criteria that are not based on the requirements of heavy vehicles and the purpose of this study was to update criteria for…

This report documents the research undertaken for Austroads on bicycle lanes at roundabouts. An extensive literature review informed empirical data gathering.The literature review revealed strong evidence that bicycle lanes on the approach and…

This project examines speeds through intersections. Phase 2 provides an assessment of selected treatments at intersections. A key objective of this research is to provide information to Austroads members on effective techniques to reduce speed and…

Cycling forms an integral element of a transport system, and provides a genuine alternative travel choice to cars while contributing to healthier lifestyles. Many governments, including those in Australia and New Zealand, have set targets to…

The aim of this project is to investigate intersection crashes with a view to determining suitable intersection approach treatments, and opportunities for better managing speeds through intersections, so as to reduce the severity of intersection…
