WCC, G N T Goldie research notebooks

Descriptive Data

Archives Identifier00768Date Range1938DescriptionThree notebooks created by G N T Goldie based on his research and experiences during an international trip funded by Carnegie Trust Corporation grant in 1938.

He went to Australia, England and the United States of America to visit different cities and learn about their various traffic management and town planning strategies.

Subjects include: traffic safety, traffic engineering, safety education strategies, pedestrians, parking, signage and policing strategies, among others. He includes general comments and summaries about the various strategies employed in many of the cities he visited.
MediumVolumeSystem of ArrangementNotebooks are labeled numerically and subjects are listed alphabetically. There is an index included at the beginning of each notebook, but only the index in No 3 appears to be complete.

Though the fact-finding trip took place in 1938, it is unclear exactly when these research notebooks were compiled. Based on the well-organised index and structure, it is distinctly possible they were put together after the trip.Collection TypeWellington City Council
