Join us for this FREE webinar series where we introduce and discuss the new Local Government Heavy Vehicle Route Assessment Guidelines.

The webinar series introduces the following through worked examples:  

  • Route upgrade table and route assessment interactive form
  • Risk Assessment Process to allow road managers to assess risk when providing access
