1 Punjab Road Safety & Traffic Way Ahead Navdeep Asija Research Scholar, Indian Institute of Technology Delhi 25 th October 2012 Founder, Ecocabs

2 Punjab- India

3 Present Road Safety Approach Road safety is largely preventable and predictable phenomena Road Safety is No Accident Act of GOD? Pragmatic To More Scientific

4 Understanding Road Crash.. Vehicle 28-34% 8-12% Humans Environment 54-62% Accident is a failure in a subsystem, or the system as a whole that damages one or more unit

5 Haddon Matrix Conditions Pre Crash In Crash Post Crash Element Pre Crash In Crash Post Crash Humans Training Education Behavior Attitude Conspicuous In Vehicle Restrains are Fitted and Worn Emergency Medical Services, Like First Aid and Ambulance Clothing on Pedestrian & Cyclist Vehicle Primary Safety Breaking, Visibility & Space Secondary Safety Like Impact Restrains Salvage Road Delineation Road Geometry Surface Condition Road Side Safety Safety Behavior Restoration of Road and Traffic Devices Visibility Road Safety Audit

6 Hand Railing Design

7 Design : Open Drain

8 Fixed Hazards in Clear Zone

9 Human Error Road Accidents are mainly due to human Errors??? ROAD SAFETY IN INDIA of passengers (1.36%), mechanical By defect in vehicles (2.01), bad roads S.K. Mishra, Director (Road (1.32%) and other factors like bad Transport) weather, cattle coming in the way, Ministry of Shipping, Road fallen trees, road blockage, absence Transport and Highways, Govt. of rear reflectors. road signage, nonfunctioning of road signals etc. of India An analysis carried out on the (17.40%). accident data for the year 2003 shows that the main causes of road accident in our country are: drivers fault (77.91%), pedestrian fault/fault

10 GDP & Sustainable Transport Contribution of the Transport Sector to GDP : 6.4% Contribution alone by Road Sector : 5.4% Loss of GDP on Road Crashes : 3% Net National : 2.4% We are able to achieve 2.4% of GDP by giving the life of 0.15 million young Indian

11 Understanding Road Safety in Punjab.. Trends & Practices

12 Fatal Road Accident Deaths in Punjab Road Fatalities Trend in Punjab ( ) Punjab Infrastructure Regulatory Authority % Privatization Started 10% Year

13 Factor Responsible for Reduction in Road Fatalities Transport Policy Fuel Price Excise Policy Land Price Land Use Road Infrastructure Enforcement Level Evacuation Mechanism : Post Crash Scenario (108 & 1073)

14 Public Transport- State Transport Undertaking (Intercity Travel) Occupancy Ratio : PUNBUS = 100.3% Punjab Roadways : 90.3% 64 Buses Per million Population (Karnataka : 348) Source :Review of the Performance of State Road Transport Undertakings

16 Fuel Pricing/Parking Policy 10% increase in fuel price typically reduces vehicle travel 2-3% (Johansson and Schipper 1997; Goodwin, Dargay and Hanly 2004) so as Crashes and Fatalities.

39 Key Interventions Actions

40 Key Interventions Integral Approach Towards Road Safety- Safety Council Enforcement Agencies Human Resource Development Research and Development Road Safety Database Road Design Standard and Recognizing Non-Motor Transport Legal Framework State Road Safety Policy Black Spot Improvement- Corridor Approach

41 Road Crash Database Management: Integrated Data Evaluation System on Accidents

42 National Urban Transport Policy-GoI Bringing about a more equitable allocation of road space with people, rather than vehicles and by encourage greater use of public transport and non-motorized modes
