Safe Systems in Practice: Road Safety Approach to Street-Level Change
From slowing traffic in Kumasi to identifying dangerous crossings in Cape Town, discover how TRANS-SAFE brought the Safe System Approach to life on the streets of African cities.
What’s in this Publication?
Road safety requires more than changing individual behaviour. The Safe System Approach focuses on designing transport systems that protect people, even when mistakes happen.
Drawing on the EU-funded TRANS-SAFE project, this publication explores how African cities can improve road safety through safer speeds, better infrastructure, community engagement and stronger emergency response.
Discover the results of TRANS-SAFE’s pilots and practical recommendations for turning road safety principles into street-level change.
Contents:
- 4 African cities involved in TRANS-SAFE pilots: Cape Town, Kumasi, Kigali and Lusaka
