Not sure what you must have been talking about in this thread but it
seems to have upset our email system which removed the content of all
the posts and sent me banned content alerts instead.

Anyone any comments......................

-----------------------------------
The Highways Agency has previously stated that upon publication by BSI of 
a
revised EN 12767 "Passive safety of support structures for road equipment.
Requirements, classification and test methods" and the associated UK 
Annexe,
it intends to withdraw TA89. 

We can inform you that the revised EN 12767 and its UK Annexe were 
published
by BSI yesterday (15th January). James Gallagher (HA - SSR) has today
confirmed that HA will now withdraw TA 89 as soon as possible.

The new UK Annexe has huge implications for anyone involved in the design
and maintenance of UK roads. Whilst it accepts that the decision to use
passive safety is a matter for each highway authority, it gives
recommendations for using passively safe roadside furniture on ALL ROAD
TYPES (Urban & Rural - irrespective of speed limit) once that decision is
made. 

Highway Authorities should note that as this advice exists, any authority
not considering if passive safety should be applied in appropriate
situations, is at risk.

A copy of the new European Norm and the UK Annexe can be purchased from 
BSI
at:
http://www.bsi-global.com/en/Shop/Publication-Detail/?pid=000000000030104750


The exposure to risk for design organisations, as a result of the new
Annexe, is the subject of a forthcoming seminar, organised by The Passive
Revolution and HIGHWAYS Magazine, being held on 12th March at The
Institution of Civil Engineers in London (See attached Conference
announcement).

We should be grateful if you would bring this matter to the attention of 
all
those within your organisation who you consider should be made aware of 
this
significant development.

With regards,

Andrew P
