Road safety programs
Our road safety programs deliver vital improvements to high-risk roads across the State.
-
Black Spot Program
The Black Spot Program directly targets roads with a proven crash history or locations identified as high-risk. Funding for the program is mainly focused on the most cost-effective treatment of hazardous road locations.
-
Low Cost Urban Road Safety Program
As the name suggests, our Low Cost Urban Road Safety Program aims to install low-cost road treatments that can improve the safety of local roads and intersections.
These treatments may include, mini and compact roundabouts, uncontrolled pedestrian crossing facilities, raised safety platforms, gateway, mid-block treatments and other safety measure.
Once project locations have been identified, Main Roads will contact the Local Government Authority directly to advise the next steps. It's important to note that LGA's are no required to apply to be part of the program.
Local authorities are encouraged to review the program's framework and consider the conditions.
