Interim Evaluation of the Victorian Safer Road Infrastructure Program Stage 3 (SRIP3)

The Safer Road Infrastructure Program Stage 3 (SRIP3) is a $1b road infrastructure improvement program delivered over 10 years from 2007 aimed at reducing the incidence and severity of crashes at high risk locations across Victoria. This paper presents the results of an interim evaluation of 553 projects completed under SRIP3 up to 2014 at a cost of $481M. Evaluation has been conducted in terms of the impact of the program on reducing the frequency and severity of crashes both for the program as a whole as well as for both broad and specific treatment types implemented under the program.
