Australia’s Queensland 7026 Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR) and transportation consultants 7025 ARRB Group (ARRB) have signed a new partnership agreement that provides committed funding for capability development, research and technology transfer.
The agreement builds on the long history of successful collaboration between ARRB and TMR and is precisely aligned to the strategic goals of both organisations.
The primary technical focus of the agreement will be to create a national asset research centre of excellence in Brisbane. This centre will focus primarily on the pavements, structures and asset management disciplines, with the aim to ultimately raise technical capability and save TMR costs through improved decision making.
