TMR’s Network Safety Plans

Author: Andrew Pine

Network Safety Plans are an assessment of the road safety risk across a road network supplemented by the assessment of benefits to specify road safety interventions to reduce that risk.  The Department of Transport and Main Roads’ (TMR) has completed the Network Safety Plans process and developed a series of Stereotype Standards for the state-controlled road network.

The benefits of these Stereotype Standards are that: projects will have a consistent ‘vision’ to address the systemic risks on each road stereotype resulting in fatal and serious injury crashes; efficient planning and design stages by reducing the need to ‘optioneer’ projects; infrastructure treatments are commonly applied and benefits proven and; greater safety outcomes across the network.
