The World Bank’s Global Road Safety Facility has released ‘A year of successes influencing the global road safety agenda‘ 

Fiscal year 2020 (July 2019 to June 2020) has been an extraordinarily successful year of growth and delivery for the World Bank’s Global Road Safety Facility (GRSF), across all its work programs. Delivery of global road safety solutions has expanded to 78 countries, saving many thousands of lives by improving road safety outcomes through grant funded research, technical assistance, advocacy, knowledge exchange, training and capacity building.

iRAP is proud to be featured in the release as part of the 5 years program with Bloomberg Philanthropies Initiative for Global Road Safety (BIGRS), where GRSF partnered with iRAP to assess baseline safety in existing roads, completing 2,700 km (of road carriageway length) at city level, as well as national level assessments totaling around 12,600 km.
