This report is the second of the three reports produced as part of a project undertaken to establish a comparative risk assessment method for assessing whether a tunnel route is safer than a surface route for the road transit of dangerous goods (DG)…

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…

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…

This report provides advice to project managers who may not have specific technical experience in the modelling field to assist in commissioning and managing services in Simulation (Mesoscopic and Microscopic) and Intersection modelling services. It…

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…

There is a considerable focus on vehicle electrification as the primary driver of reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the roads sector. Austroads commissioned the development of this Issues Paper to assess the specific relevance of the greenhouse…

This report provides a standardised assessment method to mitigate the criticism of the transport of dangerous goods through road tunnels and provide greater transparency of the decisions reached. The transport of dangerous goods is critical to…

This report documents the results of an extensive literature review examining the transport of dangerous goods in road tunnels. It includes international and local studies and methodologies, trial reports, and media. The transport of dangerous goods…
