This guideline is for the use of road controlling authorities, consultants and contractors when designing and installing audio tactile profiled roadmarkings. Because they are relatively new in New Zealand, clear guidelines are required for their use and these have been based on overseas practice and local experience to date.

Used by engineers and other people involved in crash reduction studies and safety audits to interpret crash movement and codes and environment codes.

The Urban Design Framework for the central motorway improvements emerged from the need to use a coordinated and integrated urban design process for the project. The attached framework outlined the process to achieve this.

The Environmental, urban design and landscape masterplan for the Christchurch Southern Motorway brings together a range of disciplines including: landscape architecture, urban design, architecture, art, ecology, various design engineering disciplines, planning and roading contractors. The Christchurch Southern Motorway occupies a mixed greenfield and brownfield sites that will connect urban with peri-urban and rural areas. The masterplan vision is developed through appraisals, workshops, consultation and creative thinking to provide an over-arching direction for the Christchurch Southern Motorway.

The report is a summary of a literature review of traffic-counting technology able to detect and monitor cycle traffic on a continuous basis and an internet-based survey of road controlling authorities (RCAs) and regional councils about their experience and interest in counting cycle traffic, either manually or automatically.

Guidance prepared by the NZ Transport Agency on underpass design and location.

This guide describes the processes to be used on NZ Transport Agency asset improvement projects for assessing and, where required, determining appropriate mitigation for road-traffic noise. These processes are based on NZS 6806:2010. The guide also gives effect to the Transport Agency's state highway project development and delivery standards, in particular SM030 minimum standard Z/19 – Environmental and Social Responsibility Standard.
