The Office of Road Safety in Western Australia sought the development of a methodology to evaluate the Enhanced Traffic Enforcement Program (ETEP). ETEP is an initiative designed to optimise WA Police Service traffic enforcement activities and the effective administration of fine collection. Currently ETEP is focused on reducing speed-related crashes through the improved use of speed and red light cameras. ETEP Phase 2, implementation of which will commence during 1999, will provide the infrastructure and technology to expand the number of WA Police Service speed cameras. This paper initially outlines a framework on which the short and long term evaluation of ETEP could be based. The evaluation plan is based on a suggested strategic planning framework for ETEP. Because of the key role of ETEP in WA's Integrated Road Safety Program, it is necessary for the framework to go beyond ETEP to cover the strategic plan for the whole program, at least at a general level.
