The creation of a new National Asset Research Centre of Excellence in Brisbane aimed at improving Australian roads and their management is the key feature of a new partnership agreement.

The new agreement between 7029 Department of Transport and Main Roads Queensland and the 159 ARRB Group is said to demonstrate “committed funding for capability development, research and technology transfer”, while also being “precisely aligned to the strategic goals of both organisations”.

Replacing a partnership agreement made in 2007, the new agreement was signed recently by Neil Scales, acting director-general TMR Queensland, and Gerard Waldron, managing director of ARRB Group.

An ARRB spokesperson said the signing of a new partnership agreement marked a historic moment between the two organisations, demonstrating ARRB’s continued effectiveness in supporting its members.
