Proceedings of the International Conference on Heavy Vehicles, HVTT10
This reference collects the latest information from the International Conference on Heavy Vehicles, specifically as it relates to Heavy Vehicle Transport Technology. Among the topics detailed are: interactions between heavy vehicles or trains and the infrastructure, environment and other system users; heavy vehicle and road management information-measurements, data quality, data management; freight mobility and safety; vehicle classification, size and weight evaluation, regulations, and enforcement; and traffic and road safety.

This OECD report on the road sector examines existing regulatory approaches and then explores how performance standards might be used to improve regulatory outcomes.
Performance Based Standards for Heavy Vehicles in Australia
The limitations of traditional approaches to the regulation of heavy vehicles on the basis of length, height, width and axle mass are increasingly apparent; constraints on innovation in vehicle design, and risks to road safety, efficient traffic operations and infrastructure. The current incremental approach or "creep" is also a significant concern for the transport industry, as are the limitations to innovation and productivity of an overly prescriptive approach to regulation. As the first step in the establishment of performance standards, Roaduser International Pty Ltd and ARRB Transport Research Ltd were commissioned by the National Road Transport Commission (NRTC) and Austroads to investigate and document the field of performance standards which are considered relevant for heavy vehicles. The performance measures described represent a comprehensive list relating to the key outcomes of safety performance, traffic impacts, geometric effects, access and infrastructure effects. productivity and amenity measures are also identified. The report identifies, defines and explores a core group of performance measures for practical use in PBS and also considers the extent to which these measures are influenced by road and traffic conditions. Consideration is also given to the practical implications of the core performance measures for use in regulations and consequent issues for compliance and enforcement.
