Sources of evidence are given and a calculation used to assignvalues.7.11.1 AS1A Value of start on timeA requirement to start on time is a critical success factor due to public visibility ofhighways infrastructure projects. A statutory requirement with the TrafficManagement Act 2004 uses ‘road space booking’ to undertake works, makingstakeholders acutely aware of the anticipated commencement dates. Calculation ofthe value of start on time for this research uses the following definitions and sourcesof data within its construct:142
