Multi-part polygons for worksites

Currently, when creating a worksite, the format is drawing a polygon to cover worksite extents. While this is accurate in showing area for most works, there are occasions where a worksite is covering a ‘package’ of works where the same works are occurring but in several distinct locations. Currently, one would either create a polygon in area A and then start one in area B, however this means there are ‘phantom’ lines across the planning map linking different locations, which then include the clash mitigation etc When entering a traffic management impact, multiple sections of road network can be selected without causing a similar issue, but this option isn’t available at the worksite stage The only alternative would be to create multiple worksites, however this will then cause the issue of multiple charges and administration, and/or worksites which aren’t directly attached to the TMP for their works I’m not sure how the worksite extent is coded, but could the option be added to stop drawing a polygon and then start a new one?

Public Impacts Map Improvements

Search function – The Public Impacts Map should allow users to search by street/road name, rather than having to zoom in and locate worksites manually. Public-friendly information – The details displayed when clicking on a worksite need to be easier for the public to understand. If this map is intended for public use, it needs to be easier to understand a public relevant. I suggest adding prompts when worksite information is entered, so the descriptions presented are more user-friendly, and the contractor knows it will be viewed publicly. Who is doing the work – The map should show both the contractor and the organisation they are working for (e.g., “Fulton Hogan on behalf of Timaru District Council” or “Menzies on behalf of Alpine Energy”). This would help the community understand that not all roadworks are Council-led—many are carried out by service providers

Enhancement: Scheduling of Road Space bookings with Real-time Deployments

We are looking to collaborate with the sector around improving the tools for the scheduling of work including real-time deployment of work. How can we can best communicate the activation of roadworks with various stakeholders? Here is what our research has uncovered so far: The public wants to know: When roadworks will be completed (and why they are being done) Whether there are going to be roadworks on their journey today/tomorrow Road controlling authorities want to know: What work is scheduled on the network so that they can help plan and mitigate imminent impacts to transport users. (usually through Advertising, Signals Changes, Public Transport Operations or deferring work) What work is currently on the network so they can manage real-time operations What work was done on the network so they can provide auditing (quality control) for the work Other stakeholders: (emergency services, heavy haulage etc) Want to know if work may impact specific parts of the network that relate to them Roading Contractors want: Flexibility around the timing of their work to better handle their dynamic operational needs. Easy ways to schedule and communicate the deployment of work Simple to use tools that work well while out on the road and in the office Ability for sub contractors to optionally handle scheduling and deployment of work A channel for communicating with the road uses so that they can mitigate risks on their worksites.

Centralised management for Events

Enable Events to be managed in a single system by enhancing functionality, automation, notifications and being able to easily capture additional data. Problems to overcome: Events are managed across multiple systems (~60% myWorksites, ~40% other), creating inefficiencies and reduced effectiveness. Key challenges faced: Time lost and discrepancies caused from manual and double handling of data across multiple systems. Multiple systems to support the same process creates risk and lacks cohesion for how things are done. Current systems lack desired functionality that would improve ease and efficiency across the Event management processes. Benefits & outcomes sought: This initiative aims to enable the key processes and management for all AT Events on myWorksites, focusing on: +Unified events platform+: Consolidate Events management into a single system for consistency and effectiveness.single system to improve effectiveness for the Events team and related team processes. +Data handling efficiency+: Reduce manual and duplicate data entry by minimizing the number of systems used. +Model & workflow extension+: Extend the myWorksites data model and workflows to fully support Events impacting road space. +Automated notifications+: Leverage data-driven automation to generate timely alerts and communications for Events.

Full audits, compliance and inspections module

New process for audit, compliance and inspections Improving Road Controlling Authority regulatory functions by optimising audit, compliance and inspection processes for teams in relation to Warranty and Corridor Management processes. Problems to overcome: There are multiple audit, compliance and inspection functions RCA’s must undertake, and these functions are not currently well supported by cohesive tooling. Key challenges faced: Fragmented tooling and processes creates inefficiencies and a lack of oversight to meet regulatory needs. Ineffective tooling relies on manual heavy processes, limiting time available for higher-value work that teams could be doing. Data across different systems limits the ability to have automated insights, meaning inspection efforts are unable to be targeted for maximum efficiency.| Benefits & outcomes sought: This initiative aims to build on existing automation, review and audit functionality and will enable myWorksites to be a comprehensive system, focusing on: Automated inspections: Drive targeted audit, compliance, and inspection activities through automation and data insights. Efficiency gains: Free up team time for higher-value work by reducing manual steps and tool switching. Streamlined workflows: Improve end-to-end audit, compliance, and inspection processes with cohesive tooling. Geotagged evidence: Introduce automated document and photo geolocation tags within new workflows and dashboards.
