Setting Safety Performance Measures in Australia and New Zealand
This is a follow-up to an international scan on performance measures conducted in 2009
Safety was singled out to do a follow-up based upon the similarities in the US and Australia—with regard to system of government; aggressive safety goal setting; and the role of Austroads—similar to AASHTO

Establishing a Safety Target A 10 year target was established in 2000 for
the period 2001 to 2010—a 40% reduction was targeted from 9.3 to 5.6 fatalities per 100,000 population
The target was established by the Australian Transport Council the ATC (the federal minister of transport; all state and territorial transport ministers and a local gov. rep.)
Given it is federal system of government; the targets were set by the states/territories and local government

Achieving the Target A fresh & flexible national action plan
updated every two years; results reviewed by the SCOTS (the standing committee on transport) and the ACT
Actual national results for the 10 year period was a 33.3% reduction to 6.2 fatalities per 100,000 population (wide variation across the states and territories: from 1 to 49%)
Comparative results for all the states and territories published in each action plan (a menu of options for each state)
