摘要：	Australia is a vast country with diverse environmental conditions ranging from mountainous to flat terrain, from large deserts to tropical areas with varying soil types, rainfall, and traffic conditions. The total road network in Australia is about 900,000 km, with more than 85% made up of local roads. This requirement places heavy demands on the development and maintenance of our road network for a sparse population of over 18 million and with limited resources. Local governments across Australia are in need of practical and understandable solutions to the many road transport problems they face. Coupled with this is the need to better manage road assets to gain maximum benefit from the limited road funding available. In late 1991 ARRB Transport Research Ltd. began an active technology transfer program aimed at helping the local road practitioners improve the performance of their road assets by making greater use of the latest developments, research findings, and provision of technology transfer services. Highlighted is how ARRB Transport Research is working with local government and other agencies responsible for local roads to put research, new developments, and services into the hands of practitioners so as to better manage local road assets. Addressed are the establishment of practitioners' road needs, delivery of research to meet the specific needs of local roads, development of numerous technology transfer activities, and reported benefits of the activities undertaken.
