(1) I am pleased to table a copy of the Project Criteria for the State Black Spot Program, which are also available on the Main Roads website. Projects can be submitted for Black Spot funding under -
Benefit Cost Ratio stream - where the cost of the proposed treatment is compared to the predicted savings in reduced crashes over the life of the project; or
Road Safety Audit stream - where there may not necessarily be a history of crashes but remedial works are necessary to prevent future crashes.
(2) The City of Joondalup Project was submitted as a Road Safety Audit project and, using the Australian Road Research Board (ARRB) application 'Road Safety Risk Manager', was assessed as having a Risk Reduction Cost Ratio of 1.40.
This was the highest Risk Reduction Cost Ratio of the 17 Metropolitan Road Safety Audit projects assessed for the 2010-11 State Black Spot Program.
(3) Not applicable.
