This report presents the status of road safety in the WHO European Region and provides a baseline assessment of how far 49 countries have come in implementing the recommendations of the World Report on Road Traffic Injury Prevention. In the Region, road crashes result annually in 120,000 deaths, 2.4 million injuries and a great economic burden, which may be up to 3% of a country's gross domestic product. Road traffic injuries are the leading cause of death among people 5-29 years old. Vulnerable road users such as pedestrians, cyclists and users of motorized two-wheelers constitute 39% of all road traffic injury fatalities, with pedestrians being more at risk in the eastern part of the Region. Countries differ greatly in mortality rates for road traffic injuries; the average in low- and middle-income countries is twice that in high-income countries. Countries policy responses in providing road safety for their citizens have differed. This report proposes the following areas of action: narrow the gap between countries with the lowest and highest mortality rates; provide better protection for vulnerable road users; develop a well-resourced multisectoral road safety strategy in each country; design and enforce comprehensive legislation; and develop and implement healthier transport policies. In addition, country profiles on the current status of road safety are presented for the 49 participating countries.

Road authorities in CAREC countries are encouraged to include road safety as an integral part of the planning, design, and operation of all road worksites under the Central Asia Regional Economic Cooperation (CAREC) program. This manual explains how to provide safer road worksites on CAREC roads. It 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.

In response to a provision of the Surface Transportation Assistance Act of 1982, the Secretary of Transportation, acting through the Federal Highway Administration, requested the National Academy of Sciences to study the safety cost-effectiveness of geometric design standards and recommend minimum standards for resurfacing, restoration, and rehabilitation (RRR) projects on existing federal-aid highways, except freeways. RRR projects can extend the service life of existing highways through pavement and other repairs and at the same time improve highway safety by making selective improvements to highway geometry and other roadside features. Striking a balance between preservation and safety improvements on RRR projects has proved controversial, however. The controversy has centered on which minimum geometric design standards should be applied to RRR projects to qualify for federal aid. This report presents the findings of a study committee which conducted case studies of current RRR design practices, reviewed current knowledge about relationships between geometric design and safety, and analyzed the cost and safety trade-offs of geometric improvements to existing highways. The report concludes with the study committee recommendations concerning a variety of practices that will increase the safety cost-effectiveness of RRR projects.
