      <title>Preparing for the driverless revolution</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/1477375</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Governments across the world acknowledge that automated vehicle technology is here and that, within ten years, driverless vehicles will be at the core of their national system of intelligent mobility.  In the meantime, governments confront a range of challenges in common - including repositioning local markets and regulation, reshaping government institutions, reassessing planning assumptions, interpreting benefits for society, assuring safety, capturing a financial return for the community from the new commercial uses of public roads and emerging business models.  In April 2017, Roads Australia the national peak body for road infrastructure stakeholders, led a delegation of senior government and transport industry officials on a global study visit to find out how international jurisdictions are preparing for their driverless roll-out.  This report offers insights into what we learnt from public and private enterprises in the USA (San Francisco and Pittsburgh), the UK and Sweden. It discusses options for governments and industry to take forward in this new world.]]></description>

      <title>FEHRL US scanning tour 2012: climate adaptation for roads</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/1244017</link>
      <description><![CDATA[A significant global challenge facing decision-makers involves the identification and assessment of the effects of climate change in relation to transport.  Research suggests that considerable changes in climate have been emerging and are expected to become more pronounced in the future.  As a result, a wide range of impacts on the natural and man-made environment across sectors and regions are expected to lead to varying economic, social and environmental costs.  In line with these predictions, anticipated climate change and accompanying implications are raising the level of uncertainty surrounding transport infrastructure and network operations, and the ability to withstand the frequency and intensity of climatic events in the longer-term.  In response to these challenges, the Forum of European Highway Research Laboratories (FEHRL) coordinated a Climate Change Resilient Transport Scanning Tour, held 24-31 March, 2012 across the USA, visiting Federal, State and city Transport Departments.]]></description>

      <title>Overseas study tour</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/1210177</link>
      <description><![CDATA[In early 1974 the author made a short study tour of establishments in America and Britain and this report summarises the information obtained on this visit.  The main purposes of the visit were to attend the annual meeting of the Highway Research Board in Washington, including a workshop on signalised intersection capacity, and to visit American organisations involved in developing systems for recording and marking no pass zones on highways. The opportunity was taken to visit the Federal Highway Administration in Washington, the Transport and Road Research Laboratory at Crowthorne and a number of other establishments working on road and traffic research.]]></description>

      <title>Overseas trip report</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/1210175</link>
      <description><![CDATA[The primary purpose of the trip was to present a paper entitled 'the use of behavioural methods to assess traffic hazard' to the first international conference on driver behaviour, in zurich, switzerland.  An invited paper entitled 'a secondary task measure of driving difficulty' was presented at a more informal 'workshop' held in soesterberg, the netherlands, where the theme was 'on the road measures of driver behaviour'.  Both papers described work on Australian Road Research Board (ARRB) project 95111, driver capability and road system design.  Visits were made to research groups in the UK, the netherlands, sweden, norway and the USA.  Part i of the report presents technical information gained during the trip, mostly from visits to research establishments.  Material presented at the International Drivers' Behaviour Research Association (IDBRA) conference has been omitted, since published proceedings are available.  Part ii contains details of establishments visited and the people contacted there. The two conferences are briefly described, and session topics of the IDBRA conference are listed.  Finally, major conclusions are presented and some recommendations are made.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[The study tour was undertaken on behalf of the Australian Road Research Board, during August and September, 1971.  The main areas visited were the US, the city of toronto, the UK, the cities of stockholm and zurich, prague (PIARC congress), israel and South Africa.  A detailed list of the establishments visited and the names of the principal persons contacted is contained in Appendix A.  The principal objectives of the tour related to the movement of people in urban areas, freeway location in the light of recent opposition, public transport systems and town planning design. Investigations were also made of the latest techniques of weighing vehicles in motion and of the changes contemplated to heavy vehicle limits particularly as they relate to pavement and bridge design and standards (a).]]></description>

      <title>Report on attendance at seminar in Manila, 16th-25th May, 1977 on appropriate technology in road construction and maintenance</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/1209044</link>
      <description><![CDATA[The writer attended in May 1977 a seminar in manila, on appropriate technology in road construction and maintenance, with the object of presenting a paper on 'developments in road maintenance technology in Australia and overseas' and contributing to discussions at other seminar sessions.  The seminar was primarily concerned with discussing for developing countries the potential for labour intensive and intermediate technologies for road construction and maintenance.  The major problems were identified and solutions suggested whereby they would be alleviated. It is considered that Australian state road authorities and the Australian Road Research Board can assist the developing countries by supplying advice and technical literature.]]></description>
