Description
This unit covers identifying pedestrian movement and designing and developing safe movement options.
Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1 Identify existing and potential pedestrian movements
- 1.1 New and planned developments are designed to provide for future pedestrian movements.
- 1.2 Complaints, requests, comments and observations are analysed to identify problems, risks and concerns.
- 1.3 Records and statistics are monitored to identify trends.
- 1.4 Research is undertaken to collect evidence on the movement of pedestrians.
2 Identify current ability of infrastructure to facilitate safe pedestrian movement
- 2.1 Current infrastructure is investigated to clearly establish conditions that affect the safe movement of pedestrians.
- 2.2 Identified problems and concerns are compared and assessed against legislative requirements, constraints, codes of practice, relevant Australian standards and community expectations.
- 2.3 Clear priorities based on a ranking of safety factors are established.
3 Assess and evaluate the options for the safe movement of pedestrians
- 3.1 Options relevant to rectifying problems and concerns are identified.
- 3.2 All options are assessed on the basis of cost effectiveness, efficiency and practicality.
- 3.3 Preferred options to rectify problems and concerns are selected against agreed criteria.
4 Prepare initial plan or report of the preferred option
- 4.1 A submission to council is made in accordance with requirements to gain in principle support.
- 4.2 Opportunities are provided for community consultation to maximise acceptance of preferred options.
- 4.3 Statutory and other relevant authority approvals are obtained in required time frames with minimal modification to the preferred option.
- 4.4 Clear, concise documentation is prepared that provides full preliminary cost details.
5 Prepare a detailed design
- 5.1 Regular and clear communication with design personnel is undertaken to ensure preferred option objectives are met.
- 5.2 Design personnel are advised of implementation time frames to ensure detail design is completed as required.
- 5.3 Design development is monitored to completion.
- 5.4 A safety design audit is undertaken.
- 5.5 Final detailed cost estimates are accurately prepared.
6 Monitor the design for safe movement of pedestrians
- 6.1 Design is recommended to the construction program.
- 6.2 Affected parties are advised to minimise disruption and inform of changes.
- 6.3 Education and awareness programs are conducted in accordance with specific group needs.
- 6.4 Implementation of program is monitored over agreed time frame.
- 6.5 Records and statistics are monitored to measure the effectiveness of the program.

Overview of assessment requirements
A person who demonstrates competency in this unit will be able to perform the outcomes described in the Elements to the required performance level detailed in the Performance Criteria. The knowledge and skill requirements described in the Range Statement must also be demonstrated. For example, knowledge of the legislative framework and safe work practices that underpin the performance of the unit are also required to be demonstrated.
Critical aspects of evidence to be considered
Analysis of information.
Production of accurate information.
Analysis of sites and information.
Data interpretation.
Presentation and endorsement of options.
Effective problem solving based on research.
Context of assessment
On the job or in a simulated work environment.
Method of assessment
The following assessment methods are suggested:
observation of the learner performing a range of workplace tasks over sufficient time to demonstrate handling of a range of contingencies
written and/or oral questioning to assess knowledge and understanding
completion of workplace documentation
third-party reports from experienced practitioners
completion of self-paced learning materials including personal reflection and feedback from trainer, coach or supervisor
Evidence required for demonstration of consistent performance
Evidence will need to be gathered over time across a range of variables.
Resource implications
Access to a workplace or simulated case study that provides the following resources:
examples of council policies and guidelines
relevant computer database
traffic and police reports and surveys
consultation process with relevant stakeholders
