  • Analysis of Road Crashes at Roundabouts in Toowoomba

    Analysis of Road Crashes at Roundabouts in Toowoomba

    University of Southern Queensland Faculty of Health, Engineering and Sciences Analysis of Road Crashes at Roundabouts in Toowoomba A dissertation submitted by Megan Richardson in fulfilment of the requirements of ENG4111 and 4112 Research Project towards the degree of Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (Civil) Submitted October, 2016 ABSTRACT Every year, road crashes cost Australia an estimated $27 billion in additional to the devastating social impacts these crashes have on the community. Toowoomba’s road network has a significant number of roundabouts with approximately one roundabout for every two signalised intersections; with more roundabouts being constructed every year. The aim of this investigation is to evaluate the safety performance at roundabouts in Toowoomba to re-examine the contribution that geometric features of the poorer performing roundabouts have in severity and frequency of road crashes. A combination of two road safety methodologies were utilised to rank the top 10 worst performing roundabouts in Toowoomba. By combining the two methods more variables were able to be considered in the ranking process; the Critical Crash Rate method considered crashes with respect to traffic volume and the Relative Severity Index method used costs per crash type considering the costs of a crash based on a potential severity. The methods were subsequently combined using scores and weighting factors. The crash investigations, road safety audits and geometric property investigations conducted at the subject roundabouts identified that the most significant crash contributory factors were high entry speeds and reduced sight distance upon approach to the roundabout. The observed high entry speeds were most commonly associated with entry path radii that were too large as well as inadequate deflection through the roundabout.

Fish movement is usually associated with reproduction, feeding, escaping predators or dispersing to new habitats. This occurs between marine and freshwater habitats, and wholly within freshwater. Obstacles to this movement, such as stream crossings, can severely deplete fish populations, including recreational and commercial species such as barramundi, mullet, Mary River cod, silver perch, golden perch, sooty grunter and Australian bass. Many Queensland streams are ephemeral (they may flow only during the wet season), and therefore crossings must be designed for both flood and drought conditions.
