5 Identification of Blackspots Police Records at Filed Accident Database at BRTA Data Analysis by ARI, BUET RHD (209 Blackspots) Field Visit by Road Safety Unit in 2011 Analysis of Data and Field Information 144 spots are selected for intervention 5
6 Selected blackspots for intervention 209 ARI, BUET 18 New Inclusion by 56 intervention included in other projects 27 intervened by field units 144 Finally selected for Intervention
7 Engineering countermeasures Interventions Widening of Pavement T & Y Junction or Intersection development Easing of Curves Bus-Bay Interventions Hard Shoulder Construction Construction of Road Divider Super Elevation Correction Foot-over Bridge Bazar Area Development Reflector Road Marking, Sign, Signal
8 Black Spots at T/Y Junctions Grade difference between National Highways and the side roads Lack of uniformity of construction by RHD & LGED Road side activity Illegal and on-street parking Side Impact or Rear-end Collision
9 Black spots at sharp curves Land Constraints Built up Area Compromised Design at curves Head-on Rear-end or Side Impact Collision
10 Black Spots at Bazaar Areas Road Side Activity Frequent Pedestrian Crossing Presence of Mixed Traffic Head-on, Rear-end or Side Impact Collision
11 Routine works to mitigate Black Spots Mitigation of blackspots under maintenance budget Establishment of Sign, Signal, etc. Repainting of road marks Trimming of tress at inner bends
