  • Management of Low Traffic Volume Roads Unsealed Road Classification System
    UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN QUEENSLAND FACULTY OF HEALTH, ENGINEERING AND SCIENCES MANAGEMENT OF LOW TRAFFIC VOLUME ROADS UNSEALED ROAD CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED BY Mr ANDREW HARTWIG IN FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIRMENT OF ENG4112 Research Project TOWARDS THE DEGREE OF BACHELOR OF ENGINEERING (CIVIL) OCTOBER 2013 ABSTRACT Unsealed roads play an important role within Australia’s 825,000km road network. Providing the necessary funds to the unsealed portion of the network is an ongoing issue. Investigation into Toowoomba Regional Council’s unsealed road maintenance practices was undertaken to determine if any improvements or modifications could be made to improve delivery of this service. The aim was to provide consistency across Tooowoomba Regional Council resulting in maximisation of limited maintenance funds. To achieve consistency and maximise funds across Tooowoomba Regional Council a road classification system was developed. A four tier classification system was developed that outlines the service function and characteristics of roads throughout Tooowoomba Regional Council. Maintenance activities, intervention levels and response times were developed in accordance with the classification system. Estimated costs in maintaining the road network based on this system were calculated to predict funding requirements for the future. From a comparison completed, on previous years maintenance expenditure and future funding requirements, there was minimal difference between the two. Determining if the classification system is adequate for Tooowoomba Regional Council’s requirements, involves the classification system to be trialled for a period, so as to make adjustments and provide community feedback. The development of the classification system, while not providing a definitive answer on maintenance costs, has provided a method of adopting consistent maintenance practices and standards across the region which did not previously exist.

  • Hampton to Geham — Introduction
    1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 BACKGROUND On the 18th of September 2009 the Honourable Craig Wallace MP, Minister for Main Roads, announced an independent review of the proposed upgrade of the New England Highway (Yarraman – Toowoomba) between chainages 84.3km and 93.987km (Hampton – Geham). Conics was commissioned to undertake this review. The Conics team included the following specialist sub-consultants: . TransPosition Pty Ltd; . Cavaye Community Development Pty Ltd; and . Everick Heritage Consultants Pty Ltd. The review was undertaken in accordance with Terms of Reference (ToR) issued by the Department of Transport and Main Roads (DTMR) (Appendix A). This report provides the results of the Independent Review. The New England Highway forms part of the north - south intra-state route linking northern New South Wales to the Darling Downs and South Burnett and is classified as a State Strategic Road (Main Roads 2004) with the capability to carry B-Double size trucks. The DTMR received funding under the Rural and Regional Roads Funding Initiative (RRRFI) in 2005 for the Yarraman to Toowoomba upgrade to provide an improved road network which will provide safer travel for road users and enhance the attractiveness of this route for road access to tourist destinations between Yarraman and Toowoomba (Main Roads 2004a). The Main Roads business case (required for the funding application for the project) was based on information showing that the existing traffic lane width is too narrow for the volume and mix of vehicles using it (Main Roads 2004). The Yarraman to Toowoomba project was broken into 3 sections, being: . Crows Nest to Pechey; .
