Austroads: Transport Research and Trends

Road agencies on behalf of governments in Australia and New Zealand are increasingly supporting the use of Large Freight Vehicles (LFVs) to deliver the growing freight task more productively, sustainably and safely.

The Austroads project Design for Large Freight Vehicles (NEF6394) aims to develop harmonised, best-practice road design requirements for modern and emerging LFVs for all new road and road upgrade projects along heavy vehicle routes.

This webinar discusses the first component required for this project: helping develop support for updating the guidelines and providing recommendations on where the Austroads Guidelines may need updating. It also details the potential next steps required in this process.

This webinar is presented by Sam Potts, Steve McKenna and Ryan Miller.
