New Zealand has been running a nationally funded APT program since 1968, which has produced a number of outcomes that have been implemented into New Zealand practice. Pavement response measurements allowed the national roads authority to adopt the mechanistic based Austroads Pavement Design Guide in 1995 and have also contributed to the development and verification of RLT testing protocols and have helped calibrate and benchmark LTPP sites. Projects have been either initiated due to issues arising from the performance of in-service pavements or where new construction technologies or materials have been proposed. These projects have included pavement curvature prior to the placing of thin asphalt surfaces, foamed bitumen stabilization, aggregate specifications, pavement loading at various levels for High Productivity Vehicle regulations, and a study on the dynamic effects of various vehicle suspensions.
