This study investigated the potential to define a benefit cost based on the reduction of contaminants provided by a road stormwater run-off treatment device.

Many road designations have conditions with respect to noise that require that when the road is completed, measurements will be undertaken to prove that the performance standards of those conditions have been fulfilled.

A methodology was developed in 2006–09 to quantify the benefits of waste minimisation in road construction.

This report describes the outcomes of a study commissioned by the NZ Transport Agency to inform local authorities about the costs and benefits of transport modes.

This project was undertaken in 2001 to review environmental protection measures that have been applied through the Resource Management Act (RMA) process, to a sample of 35 state highway roading projects constructed in New Zealand, between the years 1…

The objectives of this project, undertaken 2005/6, were to: review the international technical literature on the topic of environmental issues relating to the use of waste and industrial by-products in road construction applications, and recommend a …

The introduction of new or alternative (recycled wastes) materials in road construction may have benefits in terms of cost reductions, improved surfacing or pavement performance.

This project involved an investigation carried out in 2004-05 into the mechanical properties of, and potential applications for, asphalt millings in the construction of New Zealand roads.

This research provides a methodology for assessing the effects of a development proposal within the context of the New Zealand regulatory structure.

The public road network makes an extensive and unique contribution to the public lands of New Zealand.
