Institutional output targets

Output measures represent physical deliverables of the key stakeholders which are used to achieve intermediate outcome targets. Example include targeting the number of speed enforcement operations required to reduce average traffic speeds or the number of breath tests to be administered to ensure a highly visible police presence to deter drinking and driving.
