Technical Directions are technical notes issued for the use of traffic practitioners. They detail new practice, or update existing practice, not shown in current RTA guidelines.
Following is a register of RTA traffic related Technical Directions released between 1992 and 2000. This register gives a guide to the status of the documents.
Electronic copies of the documents are provided where available and these documents can be viewed, downloaded or printed using the link at the foot of the list. Alternatively the documents may be available by contacting the RTA's Information and Reference Centre on (02) 8849 2913.
Please note that this register is continually being updated
