CAREC Road Safety Engineering Manual 2: Safer Road Works

CAREC Road Safety Engineering Manual 2: Safer Road Works

This manual explains good practices for roadwork sites, offering clear and simple guidance for CAREC road authorities to use to improve road safety at these sites for road users and workers alike. It offers information about the six-zone process, how to plan and implement a traffic management plan, and how to manage a safe worksite. This manual is essential reading for project managers, designers, supervision consultants, contractors, works supervisors and others who have a responsibility for safe worksites.

About the CAREC Road Safety Engineering Manuals

The series of road safety engineering manuals of the CAREC Program came from the endorsement of the CAREC Road Safety Strategy 2017-2030 by member countries. The strategy supports and encourages CAREC authorities to plan, design, construct, and maintain safe roads.

CAREC Road Safety Engineering Manual 1: Road Safety Audit

CAREC Road Safety Engineering Manual 1: Road Safety Audit

Research indicates that up to 28% of crashes are due to the road environment. The first and most important objective of road safety audit is to minimize the risk of crashes, and to minimize the severity of any crashes that may occur on a new road project. Road safety audit is suggested to be undertaken for all CAREC road projects. This manual provides full information for those who undertake the audits (practitioners) as well as for those who manage the audit process (policy makers).

Arrive Alive: ASEAN Regional Road Safety and Action Plan (2005-2010)

Arrive Alive: ASEAN Regional Road Safety and Action Plan (2005-2010)

One plan for each country was developed, via national workshops with the assistance of 90-100 road safety professionals from key agencies. These reports were also created with the assistance of private sector and nongovernment organizations. The plans focus on improvement of safety for vulnerable road users (especially pedestrians and motorcyclists) who form the vast bulk of deaths and injuries in ASEAN region.

Development of Road Safety Policy and Action Plan: Technical Assistance Consultant’s Report

The overall aim of the project is to support the Government of Mongolia in its endeavor of improving its road safety management capacity in order to reduce accident levels and related fatalities.

Consultants' reports describe activities by a consultant or group of consultants related to preparing a technical assistance project.

This document dated September 2018 is provided for the ADB project 49139-001 in Mongolia.

Road Safety Annual Report 2015: Chapter 6 - Cambodia

The International Traffic Safety Data and Analysis Group (IRTAD) is a permanent working group of the Joint Transport Research Centre of the OECD and the International Transport Forum. It is composed of road safety experts and statisticians from renowned safety research institutes, national road and transport administrations, international organisations, universities, automobile associations, the automobile industry, and others from OECD and non-OECD countries. Its main objectives are to contribute to international co-operation on safety data and its analysis. Its key outputs are the IRTAD Database that currently publishes safety data from 32 countries and its annual report on road safety performance. It also conducts regular research and analysis on topics related to safety data analysis (e.g. forecasting, relationship between speed and crash risks, road safety and economic developments).

This chapter presents the most recent crash data for Cambodia, as well as an update on the Cambodian road safety strategy and recently implemented safety measures.

All data stem from National Road Safety Committee unless otherwise noted. The National Road Safety Committee joined the International Road Traffic and Accident Database (IRTAD) group in 2010. Data presented in this report are data reported by police and are under validation by IRTAD. Actual numbers are likely to be higher.
