Innovation and Safe System Road Infrastructure

Implementation of Safe System in Australia and New Zealand demands many changes in the way road infrastructure is designed and delivered. While there have been many innovative road safety treatments successfully trialled and evaluated, their introduction into mainstream road planning and design has been very slow. This paper draws on innovation management and agile product development techniques to propose a streamlined innovation pathway to fast-track development, trialling and adoption of new Safe System road infrastructure solutions.
