Service Description: As each day there is an ever increasing number of trips on our roads, VicRoads has developed an approach called SmartRoads to make the best use of the existing road network. SmartRoads recognises the increasing importance of sustainable modes such as public transport, walking and cycling as transport modes. SmartRoads therefore manages increasing demands in a multi-modal road system in a manner that rationally maximize the movement of people and goods. It uses a set of guiding principles to establish the priority use of roads by transport mode, time of day, and place of activity. This approach also ensures that decisions about the operation of the road network support integrated land use and transport planning. The Glossary content: Tram priority route Trams are a high priority mode along routes that frequently link key destinations/activities. Bus priority route Buses are a high priority mode along routes that frequently link key destinations/activities. Bicycle priority route Promote and reduce conflict along key cycling routes linking to activity centres and key destinations. Pedestrian priority area Pedestrians are a high priority where there is a considerable area of high pedestrian activity. Preferred traffic routes General traffic is encouraged to use these routes to avoid significant conflicts.PTRs are used both at a local scale (for example, to bypass an activity centre) and also at a metropolitan / regional scale, where they form continuous routes for longer distance travel, avoiding a number of activity centres (for example, the freeway network). Traffic routes represent the remaining arterial road network that are not designated as Preferred Traffic Routes; therefore, they are the main roads that link activity centres and cater for the mobility needs of people and goods across the metropolitan and regional area. Activity Area areas that provide a concentration of business, shopping, working and leisure, and are of great importance to the liveability of cities and towns. SmartRoads' four key time periods AMP morning peak (approx. 6am–10am) HOP high off-peak (between morning and evening peak, approx. 10am–3pm) PMP evening peak (approx. 3pm–7pm) OP off-peak (evening after peak hour, approx. 7pm–6am)
