Overview
ARRB is pleased to offer a two day workshop based on the 2nd Edition of the
Guide to Road Safety Part 8: Treatment of Crash Locations , which was released in November 2015.
The current guidelines for investigating and treating crash locations on the road network draw together current practices in Australia and overseas. In the updated 2nd Edition guide the text has been fully revised and the format amended to provide practical, hands-on advice on how to investigate and treat crash locations. This guide is a companion document to the Austroads Guide
to Road Safety Part 6: Road Safety Audit. The workshop acknowledges and follows the current Road Safety paradigm, the Safe System approach.
