Title

A Study on Road Safety Management System in Bangladesh

Abstract

Road traffic severe accident and safety is a very important Global alarming present concept for the planning, designing, construction and restructuring of road infrastructures. There is need to establish the performance of road safety devices on roads to justify their installation or plan way installation on roads. According to different report it is evaluated that there are significant increase of accidents, fatalities, injuries and casualties have taken place in the last decade in Bangladesh in spite of increase of huge number of population, personal trips, vehicles (formal, informal; motorized, non-motorized), road network as well as increase of level of understanding on the necessity of accident reporting and recording particularly for the continuous monitoring of media personnel and introduction of formal accident reporting system.

This research focuses on the contribution of road safety measures in reducing the road traffic severe accidents. Particularly the research activities wanted to find out main causes of road traffic accidents, establish the relationship between the increases in number of vehicle and also increases the road traffic accidents. To improve road traffic safety, there is a choice from various categories of measures. Two of these categories, road infrastructure and driving assistance system are studied and compared in this research. However the present study has conducted to explore the factors affecting the road traffic accidents severity and to investigate the actual road safety problems. This study employed both quantitative and qualitative methods as a combined research approach (also called integrated approach). Here the research design of the present study is survey type. The study was conducted at 8 divisional head quarter districts; Dhaka, Chattogram, Rajshahi, Khulna, Sylhet, Barishal, Mymensingh, and Rangpur in Bangladesh.

Primary data were collected by structured questionnaire from the particular areas in urban and rural areas in Bangladesh from the policy makers, administrators, education experts and founders. Secondary data and information were collected by reviewing secondary sources. Computer Program Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) was used for data analysis. Data were analyzed according to the objectives of the study. From the result of the study, some problems were identified such as driver’s behaviors problems, pedestrian problems, multi diversified vehicles related hazards, roadside hazards, lack of coordination and integration, raising awareness of road users. From the result it was recommended that safe road infrastructure should be provided, road Safety Audit should be done properly, vehicle safety should be ensured, post-crash response should be improved, co-ordination should be established, legislative framework should be provided, black spot should be identified, pedestrian friendly intersection should be design, school zoning should be marked, driver’s attitude should be tried to change, roadside hazard should not be allowed and automatic traffic sign should be established. From the result it can be concluded that the aforesaid problems are solved, if all the stakeholder of road user’s become aware and they are abide by rules and regulations then the rate of accident will be decreased in Bangladesh.
