This guide explores the application of vital tools such as statistical modeling, the Australian Safe Systems Approach, the Haddon Matrix, engineering studies, and road safety audits in identifying effective road safety interventions. Learn how to systematically examine crash data, conduct field studies, and evaluate countermeasures for promoting safer roads. Each outlined method aims to thoroughly assess transportation sites regarding their safety for all road users, providing structured processes for safety improvement and risk mitigation.

Example Think about it …
Engineering Studies Think about it … • Step 1: Examine the Crash Data • Step 2: Conduct a Field Study • Step 3: Identify Countermeasures • Step 4: Prioritize Countermeasures • Step 5: Implement the Countermeasures • Step 6: Evaluate the countermeasure impact
Road Safety Audits • A formal examination with a structured process; • Conducted independently by professionals who are not currently involved with the project; • Completed by a team of qualified professionals representing appropriate disciplines; • Focuses solely on safety issues; and • Examines the transportation site with respect to all potential road users.
