Published: | Category: Research & reports | Audience: Road controlling authorities

The objectives of this study were to:

  • determine the extent to which inadequate or inappropriate levels of visibility of roadside furniture is a road safety problem (ie crash cause) both in New Zealand and overseas
  • identify methods (New Zealand and international) for improving visibility of longitudinal roadside furniture, and the success of these methods
  • develop guidance for visibility marking of roadside furniture, and estimate the likely impact on safety if implemented.
