Description
This unit covers identifying cyclist movement, developing safe movement options and preparing and monitoring design.
Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1 Identify existing or potential cyclist movements
- 1.1 New and planned developments are designed to provide for future cyclist movements.
- 1.2 Complaints, requests, comments, and observations are analysed to identify problems, risks and concerns.
- 1.3 Records and statistics are analysed to identify cyclist trends.
- 1.4 Research is undertaken to collect evidence on the movement of cyclists and other traffic flow.
2 Identify current ability of infrastructure to facilitate safe cyclist movement
- 2.1 Current infrastructure is investigated to clearly establish conditions that affect the safe movement of cyclists.
- 2.2 Identified problems and concerns are compared and assessed against legislative requirements, Australian standards, codes of practice and community expectations.
- 2.3 Clear priorities based on a ranking of safety factors are established.
3 Evaluate the options for the safe movement of cyclists
- 3.1 Options for assisting the safe movement of cyclists are identified.
- 3.2 All options are assessed on the basis of cost effectiveness, efficiency, equity and practicality.
- 3.3 Preferred options to rectify problems and concerns are selected based on agreed criteria.
4 Prepare preliminary report
- 4.1 A submission to council is made in accordance with requirements.
- 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 modifications to the preferred option.
- 4.4 Clear, concise documentation is prepared that provides full preliminary cost details.
5 Prepare detailed design
- 5.1 A submission to council is made in accordance with requirements.
- 5.2 Opportunities are provided for community consultation to maximise acceptance of preferred options.
- 5.3 Statutory and other relevant authority approvals are obtained in required time frames with minimal modifications to the preferred option.
- 5.4 Clear, concise documentation is prepared that provides full preliminary cost details.
6 Monitor the effectiveness of the design
- 6.1 Records and statistics are monitored to measure the effectiveness of the program.
- 6.2 Complaints, requests and comments are reviewed to identify ongoing acceptance of the program.
- 6.3 Agreed time frame and criteria are considered.

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
Development of bicycle strategic plan.
Analysis of information.
Production of accurate information.
Analysis of sites and information.
Interpretation of data.
Presentation 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:
state and national cycling policies and bicycle plans
relevant computer database
traffic reports and surveys
consultation process with relevant stakeholders
