Bloody yippee. After 18 months of work, and about $3 million of money stolen off motorcyclists, MSAC finally come up with something. And, most likely, it's going to be a paid study into why high-visibility vests should be compulsory for motorcyclists:
Title Advance notice: Services to Investigate and Report on Options to Improve Motorcyclist Visibility Notice of Information Your Reference Number General Information The Motorcycle Safety Advisory Council (MSAC) (also known as MOTO NZ) oversees the operation of the programme of initiatives funded by the Motorcycle Safety Levy.
MSAC’s role is to identify initiatives to improve on-road motorcycling safety that generate a positive response from all road users and relevant authorities.
The MSAC wishes to notify potentially interested respondents that it will shortly release a Request for Proposal (RFP) to identify a suitably experienced supplier to undertake a project to investigate and report on options for improving motorcyclist visibility and conspicuity.
The services will be undertaken in a staged manner and may include:
• a literature review of likely effective interventions;
• validating (road testing) selected interventions for the New Zealand context (if required); and
• developing a business case for funding priority interventions.
The Services will be more particularly described in an RFP document which will be issued on GETS in early December. The due date for responses will be specified in the RFP and is likely to be late February 2012.
No response to this Advance Notice is required – the Respond by Date is a mandatory field required by GETS.Respond by Date Address Enquiries to
