shown in AS1428.4 in their kerb ramps however councils may wish to install Tactile Ground Surface Indicators on works under their control.

• The Transport practice for locating Children’s Crossings on local lightly trafficked roads are determined by: o Traffic one hour duration immediately before and after school hours

the traffic flow exceeds 50 vehicles per hour in each direction o One hour duration immediately before and after school hours 20 or

more children cross the road within 20m of the proposed crossing location

o The 85% percentile speed of traffic must not exceed 60km/h one hour before or after school hours

Note: In special circumstances where a Children’s Crossing is required on roads where the 85% speed is greater than 60km/h, Council may apply to the Transport for consideration and approval. • Transport practice requires an undertaking from the school principal to

arrange the display of the “Children’s Crossing” flags or signs during and only during the specified period of operation 8:00am – 9:30pm and 2:30pm – 4:00pm and when necessary at other times such as school excursions and school sport days. A pro forma for such an undertaking is provided in Appendix A of this supplement.

• In some instances Children’s Crossing may be installed at existing marked foot crossings (Zebras) where the existing “CHILDREN CROSSING” flags are in operation and such crossings located near infants and primary schools. However if the prominent use of the existing zebra crossing occurs during the hour before and after school, consideration should be given to its removal and replacement with Children’s Crossing.

• Transport practice requires Children’s Crossings to have kerb and gutter. Refer to Standard Drawing R0300 Kerb and Channel Series.

• Transport practice does not allow Children’s Crossings to be installed for sole use of kindergarten children unless escorted by an adult.

• Transport practice requires that Children’s Crossings must be approved by Traffic Committee.

General Standards Australia has released AS 1742.11:2016, Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices – Part 11: Parking controls. All road agencies across Australasia have agreed to adopt the Austroads Guide to Traffic Management to ensure a level of consistency and harmonisation across all jurisdictions. The agreement means that the Austroads Guide and the Australian Standards which are referenced in them (including AS 1742.11:2016) become technical references for use within Transport for NSW (‘Transport’).

Application of supplement

This supplement is issued to clarify, add to, or modify the AS 1742.11:2016, Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices – Part 11: Parking controls. Transport implements the principles in the AS 1742.11:2016, with variations documented in this supplement under the following categories:

• Departures (Legislative): Transport practices that depart from AS 1742.11:2016, due to State-basedlegislative requirements.

• Departures (Transport process): Transport practices that depart from AS 1742.11:2016, due toTransport process.

• Additional Information: Technical information and practices set out in Transport authored guides,manuals, technical directions and/or other reference material, which enhance or complement the AS1742.11:2016.

The variations listed in the Supplement prevail as the accepted standard for the Transport for NSW road network in New South Wales.

Supplement to Australian Standard AS 1742.12:2017, Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices – Part 12: Bus, transit, tram and truck lanes Version 4

General Standards Australia has released AS 1742.12:2017, Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices – Part 12: Bus, transit, tram and truck lanes. All road agencies across Australasia have agreed to adopt the Austroads Guide to Traffic Management to ensure a level of consistency and harmonisation across all jurisdictions. The agreement means that the Austroads Guide and the Australian Standards which are referenced in them (including AS 1742.12:2017) become technical references for use within Transport for NSW (‘Transport’).

Application of supplement

This supplement is issued to clarify, add to, or modify the AS 1742.12:2017, Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices – Part 12: Bus, transit, tram and truck lanes. Transport implements the principles in the AS 1742.12:2017, with variations documented in this supplement under the following categories:

• Departures (Legislative): Transport practices that depart from AS 1742.12:2017, due to State-basedlegislative requirements.

• Departures (Transport process): Transport practices that depart from AS 1742.12:2017, due toTransport process.

• Additional Information: Technical information and practices set out in Transport authored guides,manuals, technical directions and/or other reference material, which enhance or complement the AS1742.12:2017.

The variations listed in the Supplement prevail as the accepted standard for the Transport for NSW road network in New South Wales. For other associated supplements see the Transport for NSW, formerly Roads and Maritime (‘RMS’) supplement for Austroads Guide to Traffic Management and Transport for NSW supplement for Austroads Guide to Road Design.

Additional Information

Where the flat-top road hump is intended to serve as a traffic calming function only, to ensure that pedestrians do not perceive and use it as a pedestrian crossing (zebra) (i.e. a ‘wombat crossing’), the flat-top hump must: • Not be located on a pedestrian desire line,

• Not include a pram ramp or pedestrian ramp,

• Have the pedestrian footpath physically separated by pedestrian barriers (install fences or landscaping parallel to the kerb adjacent to the hump, as appropriate)

• Include appropriate warning signs together with advisory speed signs as necessary to warn road users, and
