The Highway Permits computer program stores overload capacity data for all state highway bridges, and some local authority bridges, together with a description of the highway network.

The purpose of this project was to review the use overseas of environmental monitoring and forecasting systems as a component of wider-integrated ITS facilities, in particular those linked to transport and traffic management, and to consider their po…

Truck Mounted Attenuators (TMA) are widely used on New Zealand Level 2 and 3 state highways and on some network roads that carry high-volume high-speed traffic, to provide safe environments for both roadwork crews and road users.

A study was conducted to examine whether the New Zealand Code of practice for temporary traffic management guidelines for the implementation of temporary speed limits (TSL) result in driver speeds that match safe travelling speeds.

Research for this project identified and developed a range of traffic analysis software suitable for New Zealand use to evaluate urban road improvement schemes.

The report presents a background to the design traffic data included in the New Zealand Supplement to the AUSTROADS Guide.

This research project develops measurable criteria for the economic value of the movement of people and goods for use in the One Network Road Classification and contributes to the development of a performance measurement framework.

Crowdsourcing is the practice of engaging the services of a large and undefined group of people (the ‘crowd’) to provide information or input into a particular task or activity.

This project aimed to understand time saving as a motivation for New Zealand drivers’ speeding behaviour in the context of other motivations for speeding, and to investigate the effect of education designed to improve participants’ understanding of t…

Rate of rotation, or 'warp factor' is a measure of the variation in crossfall of a road surface, and typically relates to a change in crossfall from that of a normal straight road to that chosen for a curve to enhance forces assisting a veh…
