AITPM is pleased to see the release of the new Design of Road and Streets manual - an important resource to support the transport community.
Transport for NSW has a big role to safely design for the needs of all users of roads and streets – from civic spaces, cycleways, bus and light rail routes to freight. Did you know that Transport for NSW has more than 700 Road Designers, 120 Urban Designers, 500 Transport Planners, 110 Traffic Engineers and 200 Road Safety professionals? These people work with hundreds of Council staff across the state to design and operate thousands of kilometres of roads, streets and civic spaces every day. Transport for NSW has just published a new Design of Roads and Streets manual. The manual uses design solutions to enhance road safety and improve vibrancy. These solutions include ensuring our rubbish can be collected and our packages delivered, our buses don’t get stuck and increasing tree canopy, so people walking, cycling, or enjoying community spaces, are comfortable.
