  • RACQ Regional Road Inspection Tour 2009
    Regional Road Inspection Tour December 2009 <<Insert image here>> Document description South Western Queensland and North / North Western and Central Queensland RACQ Regional Road Inspection Tour 2009 Introduction In August/September 2009 the RACQ Traffic & Safety Department undertook a road inspection tour of major Queensland highways in the North, Central and Southern Queensland. The tour included meetings with representatives at Department of Transport and Main Roads (DTMR) offices in the regions to gain a better understanding of issues and current condition of the National and State road network in these areas. It also provided the opportunity to better comprehend the difficulties of building and maintaining roads in harsh weather and inferior soil conditions. General measurements were taken of traffic lanes, shoulders and clear zones. Visual assessments of the roads such as pavement condition, delineation, ride comfort and presence of roadside hazards were recorded together with observational surveys of traffic mix. These were logged and are discussed in greater detail within the main report. The data collected, with the knowledge and understanding of relevant local issues gained, together with the fact that RACQ experts were „on-site‟, generated a great deal of media interest and community feedback throughout both tours. The two week-long trips are shown below: South-western Queensland (1750km) North, North Western and Central (August 31 – September 4) Queensland (2250km) (September 14-18) • Warrego Highway • Flinders Highway • Moonie Highway • Barkly Highway • Balonne Highway • Landsborough Highway • Mitchell Highway • Capricorn Highway 2 RACQ Regional Road Inspection Tour 2009 pavement including trees and exposed South Western culverts. Queensland Regional Road Tour Moonie Highway (Dalby – Moonie) The pavement surface has failed (in sections) in the initial 20km south of Dalby due to environmental cracking (caused by expansion/contraction of foundations).
