Design, delivery and testing of road tunnel aesthetic features - Best practice approaches
Tender ID: 477426
Tender Details
Tender Description
PURPOSE:
The purpose of this project is to form best practice guidance for the design, delivery and testing of
in-tunnel aesthetic design features to improve tunnel safety and the customer experience. The project will review recent projects and current practices relating to driver behaviour in tunnels, and the design, delivery and testing of in-tunnel aesthetic design features.
SCOPE:
The project will establish best practice in design, delivery and testing of in-tunnel aesthetic design features by drawing on the learnings and conclusions from recent relevant projects in Australia and New Zealand including but not limited to:
1. Design and delivery of in-tunnel design features at the NorthConnex, West Gate, WestConnex, and M6 Stage 1 tunnels.
2. Perceptual countermeasure treatment trials at the Burnley tunnel.
3. Austroads Project ART6011 Use of a driving simulator as a safety assured method of assessing and approving alternative in-tunnel aesthetic solutions (nearing completion).
4. Austroads Project ART6137 Use of perceptual countermeasure treatments to reduce crash risk in tunnels (nearing completion).
5. Austroads Project TT1972 Measures to reduce crashes adjacent to and within tunnels (complete).
6. Transport for NSW Project Driver Needs and Behaviour in Road Tunnels.
The project will provide a methodology for the design, delivery and testing of in-tunnel aesthetic designs that improves both tunnel safety and the customer experience. The designs will be informed by the experience and expertise of specialists involved in the delivery of the projects listed above, and feedback compiled from road tunnel users.
