The success of the recently introduced congestion-charging scheme in London has raised urban congestion charging to the fore of the transport policy debate.

This report summarises preliminary research undertaken in New Zealand during 2006–2007 to investigate the ability of intelligent transport system (ITS) treatments, such as adaptive signal control (eg, SCATS) and variable message signs (VMS), to detec…

The purpose of this project was to review the use overseas of environmental monitoring and forecasting systems as a component of wider-integrated ITS facilities, in particular those linked to transport and traffic management, and to consider their po…

Truck Mounted Attenuators (TMA) are widely used on New Zealand Level 2 and 3 state highways and on some network roads that carry high-volume high-speed traffic, to provide safe environments for both roadwork crews and road users.

The study undertaken in 1992 identified the factors that contribute to the costs of operating vehicles on unsealed roads compared to those costs on sealed roads in New Zealand.

This report is an annex to Transit New Zealand Research Report No. 32, Site design for heavy vehicle facilities.

Research was undertaken during 2004/05 to determine the effect of short approach through-lanes and downstream merges on lane use at signalised intersections, and to find ways of improving use.

The purpose of this research report was to review the use of congestion charging schemes in relation to the urban form of a selection of international cities.

Transit New Zealand Research Report No. 32, Site design for heavy vehicle facilities, is to assist architects and site planners in the design of on-site overall design and spatial arrangements for manoeuvring and parking vehicles.

Between 2002–2004 a four-part research programme was undertaken to identify hazards to cyclists from features of the road network that are designed to benefit motorists.
