Environmental risk factors.
One of the main risk factors associated to the course of traffic accidents in Kibaha district
is the technical element of the highway construction in the area. The highway road is
below standard and it accommodates high traffic volume without being equipped with
traffic safety measures such as traffic separation and appropriate road signs along side the
road or Zebra crossings. Kibaha highway road was not designed with the facilities to
accommodate the characteristics and behavior of various types of road users, vehicles,
traffic and or environment. There is no traffic separation such as pedestrian lanes, the
road is narrow without shoulders, bumps are only means to control speed, poor visual
guidance, poor alignment standards and poorly controlled and uncontrolled intersections
and access to the road. In actual fact the road seems to be designed without appropriate
consideration of any of these mentioned factors, and all these aspects contributes
significantly on the increasing risk of accidents occurrence and severity in Kibaha
district.
