The Scheme Project Manager will request CVs from prospective audit team leaders and
team members prior to the appointment of an audit team. These CVs should be
submitted to the NRARoad Safety Section for approval. Applications for approval
of audit teams must be submitted on the standard form in Appendix D and can be
emailed to roadsafetyaudits@nra.ie. Acceptance will be of individuals, rather than of
consultancy firms bidding for the work,and the approval process will be carried out for
each individual audit. Quality checks will be carried out on a sample of
completed road safety audits and the results of these checks may be taken into account
when audit teams are being approved.
