NZTA Safe Roads
NZTA Safe Roads was made up of the NZ Transport Agency and infrastructure consultancies Beca, Northern Civil Consulting (NCC) and Bloxam, Burnett & Olliver (BBO). Safe Roads worked with stakeholders to deliver timely and tangible improvements to New Zealand roads, helping to reduce deaths and serious injuries. Safe Roads had been established to deliver a programme of road and roadside safety improvements to the State Highway Network over a six year period.
The Safe Roads and Roadsides programme was one of four components of the Safe System approach which had been introduced to New Zealand through Safer Journeys, the government’s strategy to guide improvements in road safety over a 10-year period.
The national programme of improvement works was overseen by the team in Hamilton while projects were managed regionally through its partner offices in Auckland, Tauranga, Wellington, Whangarei and Christchurch.
