The United Nations decade of action for
road safety 2011-2020 sets an ambitious goal to stabilize
and then reduce by half the predicted level of traffic
fatalities in low and middle-income countries by 2020. This
goal should save around 5 million lives, avoid 50 million
serious injuries, and provide an economic benefit of more
than US$3 trillion. Impacts on this scale will enhance
country and regional development opportunities. In line with
this goal, the Global Plan for the Decade of Action for Road
Safety 2011-2020 identified five priorities: 1) road safety
management capacity, 2) infrastructure safety, 3) vehicle
safety, 4) road user behavior, and 5) post-crash care. This
integrated development perspective is also reflected in the
World Bank's new transport sector business strategy.
The project's inclusive approach delivers road safety
interventions in the demonstration corridors and elsewhere. |
