Instructions and Notes
1 Complete the road details in the title block and the reviewer details in the Reviewed By block.
2 Review DPR Report chapter by chapter. Rank each as not included (0), poor standard (1), fair standard (2) or good standard (3) in the ranking cell.
3 Review Drawings section by section. Rank each as not included (0), poor standard (1), fair standard (2) or good standard (3) in the ranking cell.
4 DPR Report chapters 2, 5 and 18 and Drawing sections 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 are critical categories and have higher weighting.
5 If mandatory information is not included (Report Chapters 2 & 5 and Drawing Section 4), score is zero and DPR will not be approved.
6 Ranking less than (1), or less than (2) for critical categories, means the chapter/drawing cannot be reviewed and the DPR will not be approved.
7 The outcome for each chapter and section will be automatically displayed. If it is CHECKED (cell highlights green), the review continues.
8 All report chapters and drawing sections must achieve CHECKED status to proceed to check the overall score.
9 If any report chapter or drawing section does not achieve CHECKED status, the DPR will not be approved and the overall score will not be checked.
10 If the Total Score is not greater than 70%, the DPR will not be approved.
11 If the Total Score is greater than 70%, the decision will automatically be APPROVED (cell highlights green).
12 Only when all review cells give result of CHECKED and APPROVED (all review cells highlighted green) will the DPR be approved for issue.
