The safety impacts of paved shoulder width in Indian four-lane rural highways.

The shoulder width, as a geometric element, plays a crucial role in enhancing highway safety. Research from high-income countries indicates that improving shoulders on highways leads to substantial safety benefits. However, the safety effectiveness of paved shoulders for low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) highway contexts has limited evidence.

Data on road traffic incidents for Sydney greater metropolitan area.

A road network aims to facilitate the movement of commuters and goods in a safe, economical, and efficient way that contributes to growth in the economy. Road traffic incidents (RTIs), such as crashes, vehicle breakdowns, hazards, etc., are unexpected events that cause severe traffic congestion, unreliability, and pollution.

A matched case-control approach to identify the risk factors of fatal pedestrian crashes on a six-lane rural highway in India.

Globally, the increase in pedestrian fatalities due to road traffic crashes (RTCs) on transport networks has been a major concern. In low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), pedestrians face a high risk due to RTCs on the rural highway network. The safety evaluation methods, such as observational before-after, empirical Bayes, full Bayes, and cross-sectional methods have been used to identify risk factors of RTCs.
