Engaged by Applicant (not DPTI/Council) Obtain statistical data and records relevant to the assessment from DPTI, incl: previous assessments traffic counts crash history road drawings Conduct the route assessment, determining impact of the RAV operating along a proposed route in terms of: effect on amenity, environment and impact on local communities ability of proposed RAV to be physically and safely accommodated along route Identify/assess risks using risk assessment model, then categorise as P1 (very high risk), P2 (high risk), P3 (moderate risk) and P4 (low risk) Prepare Route Assessment Report and Recommendations,including management of risks (accept, treat, transfer, avoid) Submit report to Applicant Role of the Authorised Route Assessor

  13. Applicant costs – “user pays” principle: Initial application to DPTI Authorised Route Assessor fee Route upgrade requirements !! (may be shared with DPTI / Council) First user disadvantaged PBS requirements too severe – risk assessment and management process (e.g. for low volume routes) Lack of appropriate tools (e.g. turning path software) to test routes for PBS vehicles, particularly L2, L3 and L4 Operators running RAV’s illegally Old gazetted routes not suitable for newer heavy vehicles Use of PBS to create specialised vehicles in SA is still low – two types include Heavy Mineral Concentrate (HMC) Triple Road Train (L3) and glass transporters (L1) Issues
