RoadSafety Training Services (RTS) pioneered and developed this protocol designed specifically for mine road networks. This Safety initiative is endorsed by the Queensland Mines Inspectorate

Protocol outcomes :

  • Mine haul road safe friction profiling

  • Mine haul road water application management

  • Mine haul road network safety audit

  • Water Cart Fleet; water application (ground rate) calibration

 

Mine site solutions :

  • On-site consultation services

  • RTS/ADE conducted audit of mine haul road network

    • Friction assessment and profiling

    • Water application management advisory service

  • Training services

    • On-site training of friction assessment

      • Annual refresher course
    • On-site training of Vericom friction meters

      • Including Vericom V-Sense Brake Meter

    • On-site training of Friction Plus by ADE iPhone app
  • Road network safety presentations and awareness sessions
