Accomplishing such an objective requires the implementation of a large spectrum of safety measures, not least to increase the potential that road infrastructure safety measures have in significantly reducing road deaths.
This requires taking on a number of challenges, i.e.:
(1) a tension between decreasing available public funds against a greater attention paid to the level of road safety;
(2) the poor ability of existing roads to absorb increasing traffic flows;
(3) the persistent presence of black spots not only on old roads but also on new ones.
