Background

ViaStrada was commissioned to conduct safety audits of the uni-directional separated cycleway pair on the one-way system in central Dunedin, on State Highway 1 between Pine Hill and Rattray Street. For the scheme stage, ViaStrada identified traffic signal level of service issues that could affect compliance and safety. A combined team of ViaStrada and NZTA safety engineering staff were brought back for detailed design and post-construction safety audits a year later.
