Join us as we hear from the SMEC team on the topics of “Opportunities for Pedestrians in the Melbourne CBD – A Covid response” and “Evolution of Road Safety Audit – Embracing new technology.

Moderated by David Blair, Manager Transport Planning Logistics and Analytics (VIC/TAS), we will hear from:

Warwick Keating, Senior Transport Planner, will speak on “Opportunities for Pedestrians in the Melbourne CBD – A Covid response”.

Warwick is a Senior Transport Planner who has worked on a range of high profile, community defining projects across Australia. His experience stems from working in government and private sectors, in a variety of transport advisory roles where he has produced many high level regional strategies to site specific operational requirements. Warwick has recently worked on station access strategies, bike lane studies, major road project designs and freight advisory projects. His presentation will focus on the potential opportunities to us as traffic engineers and planners for expanding the Melbourne walking and cycling network in response to the dramatic decrease in the demand for on-road travel.

Lindsay Smith, Team Leader - Traffic and Road Safety, will speak on “Evolution of Road Safety Audit – Embracing new technology”.

Lindsay is the Team Leader of SMEC’s Traffic & Road Safety team and a Chartered Professional Engineer with 20 years’ experience in traffic engineering, transport planning, road safety and design, project development and project management. She has a broad experience from a variety of projects, through all stages of the project lifecycle, in both the public and private sectors and across all states and territories. Lindsay is particularly adept at finding road safety solutions for all road users. Her presentation will focus on the impact that human behaviour has had on the way road safety audits have been undertaken over time and the use of new technologies such as virtual reality to assist with the undertaking of road safety audits in the future.
