Assessing New Roads

While existing roads can be Star Rated with coding done based on video imagery of the road network, new roads can be coded based on design drawings.  The iRAP Star Rating for Designs (SR4D) web app allows practitioners to upload design drawings to a GIS system, match up centreline positions and the codings can be done directly from the design.  Ideally, minimum Star Ratings can be specified in procurement documentation and the SR4D process can be used to motivate the best possible safety achievement from the outset.
