Background

ViaStrada was engaged by the NZTA to carry out a detail design stage safety audit of a proposed roundabout on Tay Street, Invercargill. The intersection is the main entrance to the city for drivers travelling southwest on SH1. The proposed roundabout is in a 50-km/h urban area on the eastern end of Tay Street (SH1) and replaces the existing priority-controlled crossroads. ViaStrada prepared a NZTA-compliant detail design stage road safety audit for the proposed roundabout design.
