Abstract:

<strong>Objectives.</strong> Road accidents are a global public health problem and the third leading cause of death worldwide. According to international statistics, there are multiple factors that contribute to road accidents, including environmental factors that are among the most important. The aim of this review was to determine the association between environmental factors and road injuries among population.   <strong>Materials and methods. </strong>In total, 24 articles were selected using the Google Scholar and PubMed databases for analysis in the study, selected according to the i

Abstract:

Road construction through Nepal’s hilly and mountainous terrain has historically had a significant impact on the local environment and land-owners, primarily because of the steep and often unstable terrain traversed, monsoonal climate, necessity for low-cost roads, and no landowner compensation for compulsorily acquired land. The design phase of the Road Maintenance and Development Project sought to incorporate comprehensive environmental and social measures into the design of low-cost roads in the western hills of Nepal to achieve more stable and lower-impact roads. The project involved the d

Abstract:

The global road traffic safety situation is alarming, with millions of fatalities and injuries annually, underscoring the urgent need for improved safety measures. This study examines factors influencing highway safety, prioritizing them using the Relative Importance Index (RII). Through case evaluations, expert interviews, and a 29-criteria questionnaire grouped into road, vehicle, driver, and environmental factors, key issues were identified. The most critical factors include poorly designed roads (84.2%), malfunctioning brakes (83.4%), distracted driving (82.8%), and adverse weather (80.6%)

Globally, road traffic accidents are a major cause of death and severe injuries. It is estimated that the number of deaths on the world’s roads at 1.5 million per annum puts road traffic injuries as the eighth leading cause of death globally.

Despite the measures put in place in different countries, road traffic fatalities are still considered one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Thus, the reduction of traffic fatalities or accidents is one of the contributing factors to attaining sustainability goals. Different factors such as the geometric structure of the road, a non-signalized road network, the mechanical failure of vehicles, inexperienced drivers, a lack of communication skills, distraction and the visual or cognitive impairment of road users have led to this increase in traffic accidents.

Abstract:

As the global road network expands, roads pose an emerging threat to wildlife populations. One way in which roads can affect wildlife is wildlife-vehicle collisions, which can be a significant cause of mortality through roadkill. In order to successfully mitigate these problems, it is vital to understand the factors that can explain the distribution of roadkill. Collecting the data required to enable this can be expensive and time consuming, but there is significant potential in partnering with organisations that conduct existing road patrols to obtain the necessary data.

Since it is impossible to influence the weather conditions, it is necessary to provide full protection of the highway. All factors affecting the road condition at the early stages of design were analyzed. It is concluded that if the regulatory and technical requirements are

Abstract:

In response to the escalating road safety challenges and the persistent increase in traffic accidents, it is imperative to adopt an integrated approach to address this multifaceted issue effectively. The main objective of this research is to classify or identify high-risk areas by studying the impact of the most significant factors contributing to road accidents. The methodology is based on a hierarchical model of three levels, including the essential factors that increase road risk. Subsequently, a fuzzy hierarchy process (FAHP) is conducted using a fuzzy scale to evaluate and analyse the mos

The correlation between Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and environmental factors is examined at different scales and locations in world heritage of Wuyi Mountain by wavelet coherency. These factors are elevation, slope, aspect, distance to nearest resident, distance to nearest road , and distance to nearest river along two transects based on data of DEM, residents, roads, rivers and ALOS remote sensing image in 2009.The results show that:(1) The relationships between NDVI and environmental factors change along with scale.

The larger mission of the sustainable development goal is to promote sustainable cities and communities. This research study aims to examine factors responsible for road accidents in Nigeria through the quantitative tool of higher extensions of the Poisson regression model (ZTNPRM). A cross-sectional study design was adopted and secondary data was used within a sample period from the 1st quarter of 2006 to the 2nd quarter of 2020. Due to overdispersion, ZTNPRM indica

Abstract:

In Kenya, numerous complaints, delays in planned output deliverables and subpar cost effectiveness continue to be re-emerging issues among road projects. For instance, KeNHA had to postpone the beginning of the construction of the 63-kilometer sugar belt road in the Nyanza project due to a delay in approvals. Despite numerous research examining the success elements for road project management, there is no consensus on which exact operational factors affect the implementation process. In addition, though prior research has been undertaken concentrating on roads funded by KeRRA (Kenya Rural Road

This study presents an innovative methodology for Highway Route Selection (HRS), specifically tailored for mountainous terrains. The approach focuses on selecting the most suitable route for road alignment while prioritizing road safety and hydrological and geological considerations. Through systematic analysis, the methodology evaluates alternative road alignments by examining various risk factors related to geometric design, hydrological, and geological impacts. Utilizing Fault-Tree Analysis (FTA), 14 key design factors related to geometric design and environmental factors are identified. Th

Many South African roads experience inadequate construction and maintenance. The road construction scantiness is evidenced by the Moloto Road, Gauteng, Mpumalanga and Limpopo. This was dubbed the “notorious road” for the high number of fatal accidents. An assessment of factors influencing the appointment of service providers might be a profound strategy to ensure efficiency and effectiveness in the construction and maintenance of South African roads.

In recent years, the number of fatal traffic accidents has been on the rise in Taiwan, with a total of 2865 fatalities in 2019, representing a 3% increase from the previous year, and indicating an urgent need for the improvement of Taiwan’s traffic conditions. This research focuses on the three-way intersections on provincial roads. In Taiwan, such three-way intersections account for more than 70% of all intersections on provincial roads. From 2018 to 2019, there were 41,137 accidents at three-way intersections, accounting for about 50% of the traffic accidents in Taiwan. Relevant research in

Abstract:

Frequency of use of concentrated liquid stabilizers to improve stability of aggregate and soil materials in constructing roads and other transportation-related structures is increasing. Concentrated stabilizers are formulated specifically for modification, improvement, and stabilization of aggregate and soil materials and require dilution in a water solution before application to allow for adequate dispersion. Applied costs of treatment are generally much less than conventional chemical stabilization treatment, because application is much simpler and product and transportation costs are less.
