iRAP has released its Plan for the Second Decade of Action for Road Safety salvar a más de 2 000 000 de personas de la muerte o de sufrir lesiones, hacer que más de 200 000 km de carreteras sean más seguras e influir en una inversión en infraestructura viaria de $200 mil millones de dólares para salvar vidas en los próximos 10 años.
With the theme “Partnerships for 2030 Impact”, the charity’s partnerships at the local, national and global level will be focused on achieving the UN Global Targets 3 and 4, to ensure all new roads are built to a 3-star or better standard for all road users (Target 3), and more than 75% of travel is on the equivalent of 3-star or better roads for all road users by 2030 (Target 4).
iRAP’s Plan is aligned to the Plan Mundial para el Decenio de Acción launched last week, of which achieving 3-star or better journeys is one of 5 key areas for action.
Con el apoyo de los donantes de la Fundación FIA, iRAP colabora con socios de todo el mundo para garantizar que las nuevas carreteras sean seguras y que las carreteras existentes de alto riesgo cuenten con financiación y se mejoren a una escala significativa. Juntos, garantizaremos desplazamientos seguros para todos los usuarios de la vía pública, en consonancia con importantes agendas globales centradas en la seguridad vial, la salud infantil, el clima, el transporte, la igualdad de género y la movilidad urbana.
Durante la próxima década, se hará hincapié estratégico en el enfoque global y las herramientas de iRAP para establecer alianzas que permitan lograr un impacto en 2030 en iniciativas prioritarias clave, con el fin de alcanzar una mayor escala y maximizar el número de vidas salvadas.

iRAP CEO Rob McInerney said, “Our vision is for a world free of high-risk roads and working together with our partners, we can achieve the Sustainable Development Goals and halve global road deaths by 2030.”
During the Launch of the Global Plan for the Decade of Action held on 28 October, Dr Nhan Tran, Coordinator of Unintentional Injury, World Health Organisation profiled safe road infrastructure as one of 5 areas of action, emphasizing the importance of standards and designs to ensure 3-star roads that are safe for all road users.
Lord George Robertson, Chair of the FIA Foundation said he was proud of the initiatives the FIA Foundation has supported like iRAP, Global NCAP and our safe schools partnerships.
“As we begin the Second Decade of Action, all governments must step up with real commitments to provide minimum 3-star safety design standards for all highways, to support Streets for Life and low-speed liveable cities and to ensure that every child has a safe and healthy journey to school,” Lord Robertson said.
“iRAP is ready to support partners and governments as they draw on the Global Plan to develop and implement national and local action plans to halve global road deaths and injuries by 2030,” Mr McInerney said.
“iRAP’s 2nd Decade of Action Plan will ensure safer journeys for all road users building on a foundation of good governance, shared success and a 5-star team with great partnerships, programme support, tools and projects for the mutual benefit of all,” he said.
