解説
Transportation planning and traffic safety are crucial topics in discussions surrounding climate change and the negative health effects of transportation in low and middle-income countries. The updated edition of this book builds upon the foundation of the first edition, which was originally based on lectures given during the Annual International Course on Transportation Planning and Traffic Safety starting in 1991. In addition to the original content which has gone through a thorough update, this new edition includes new chapters focusing on road safety management and governance, the safety of vulnerable road users (VRUs), and the impact of climate change on travel behavior and safety. Furthermore, the book addresses safety concerns related to motorised two wheeler safety and public transport systems, highlighting the emerging risks in modern traffic systems.
Transport Planning and Traffic Safety: Making Cities, Roads, and Vehicles Safer, Second Edition offers a comprehensive public health and systems approach to road safety, navigating the interdisciplinary elements of traffic crashes. New to the second edition includes chapters on traffic planning, design principles, institutional mechanisms, human body models, and pre-hospital care for road traffic victims. Readers will find examples of best practices from countries that have successfully reduced traffic crashes, with a focus on how these practices can be implemented in low-income countries. The text engages policymakers and technical professionals by applying internationally recognized theoretical principles to develop solutions tailored to local needs. Each original chapter has undergone a thorough review and updates to ensure accuracy and relevance. The new edition also integrates checklists and audit processes for highway safety practitioners, along with principles and concepts related to public transport safety.
This interdisciplinary book is designed for a wide range of professionals, including quality control and safety engineers, traffic and road engineers, vehicle designers, law enforcement officials, and transport planners.
