This research used video surveillance of 1245 cyclists in New Zealand at pinch points to determine the relationship between the remaining lane or shoulder width and the likelihood of cyclists traversing the edge line into the motorised vehicle stream…

A preliminary screening procedure for the prioritisation of New Zealand State Highway bridges is presented.

Research carried out in 2008-2010 examined the quantum and causes of non-motor vehicle injuries to pedestrians through a structured interview survey.

Roads have a link function based on movement, and a place function based on being a destination in their own right.

A review of international literature covering the use of fibre reinforcement in cohesive and non-cohesive soils as a means of strengthening these materials was begun in 1992.

The objectives of this study were to investigate the relationship between permeability of chipseals, waterfilm thickness, basecourse moisture sensitivity, heavy traffic volumes, and premature pavement failure following construction through the use of…

The overall research objective was to evaluate changes in pedestrian safety and traffic efficiency from installing pedestrian countdown timers.

In New Zealand, premature failure of low volume, low strength state highways and local authority roads has sometimes occurred due to significant changes in heavy commercial vehicle traffic.
