After three and a half years EuroRAP RADAR Project has come to an end.
A lot has been achieved during the last few years. To name some, more than 300 road safety specialists have been trained on identifying and improving risk on the road networks; tolls like ViDA and training material including iRAP coding manual have been translated to German (Austrian), Hungarian, Bulgarian, Czech, Croatian/Bosnian/Serbian, Slovenian and Moldovan language; Experts Groups involving all of you and external experts have worked hard to deliver reports on hot topics like Safer Road Investments Plans, Vulnerable Road Users, Speed Management, Road Safety near Schools, newly revised RISM directive and Covid19 impact on road safety.
Taking RADAR outputs to another level, implementing them in your country, and following up with capitalisation of all achieved will be the aim for the future. Working on road safety improvements in the region should continue, and it shared responsibility needs to remain to keep road safety high in our and all stakeholders’ agendas in the years to come.
The RADAR team have combined all the hard work of the amazing and empowering consortium within the 18-pages long RADAR project magazine – click here to read
RADAR L’évaluation des risques sur les routes de la région du Danube, lancée en 2018, est un projet de 2,15 millions d’euros sur trois ans visant à améliorer la sécurité des infrastructures routières, à soutenir des systèmes de transport sûrs et respectueux de l’environnement et à promouvoir une accessibilité équilibrée entre les zones urbaines et rurales. Ce projet a permis d’identifier les risques sur le réseau routier et d’élaborer des plans pour les réduire systématiquement par l’amélioration des infrastructures et du tracé des routes. Il a également dispensé des formations et encouragé la coopération transnationale afin de permettre aux acteurs de la sécurité routière de la région de s’inspirer des meilleures pratiques.
