Township Entry Treatments
A Township Entry Treatment (TET) is a speed management measure that involves providing new signs and line marking at the point of transition from a high speed rural environment to a lower speed environment to coincide with entering a township.
The TET program has also been rolled out in New Zealand and the United Kingdom, with both countries recording a reduction in travel speeds and crash rates by enhancing the drivers’ awareness to the changing environment.
Towns to receive a TET are selected based on several factors, such as crash data, and whether the town has a speed limit transition of at least 20km/h.
Depending on the location, a TET may include the installation of:
- special speed limit signs that include the name of the town on both sides of the road
- narrowed lane widths to further encourage slower speeds
- red pavement surface treatment in both traffic lanes
- painted road shoulder markings
- painted medians for wider road widths
