\u200bOur third #RAPKnowledgeLive session will be held at the end of June, highlighting the exciting updates to the Star Rating for Designs web app.<\/p>\n

Star Rating for Designs (<\/strong>SR4D<\/strong><\/a>)<\/strong>\u00a0is a process and evidence-based programme of applications informed by the\u00a0iRAP Methodology<\/a>\u00a0which enable the objective measure, and improvement, of the level of road safety \u2018built in\u2019 to a road design for vehicle occupants, motorcyclists, pedestrians and cyclists, before the commencement of civil works.<\/p>\n

SR4D enables road engineers and designers, municipalities and road authorities, funding agencies and governments to make roads safer.<\/p>\n

Ensuring the safety of a road design before it clears the design phase directly equates to lives and serious injuries saved on the street. Despite knowledge and free tools to improve design safety, unsafe 1- and 2-star roads are still being built.<\/p>\n

SR4D strengthens the road safety audit process, complementing it with an objective and repeatable qualification of road user risk (without the need for a high level of experience), and supports the wider potential of\u00a0\u00c9valuations par \u00e9toiles<\/a>\u00a0as a safety performance metric and maximised safety in road infrastructure investment.<\/p>\n

SR4D will be essential to supporting countries to achieve the\u00a0United Nations Global Road Safety Performance Targets<\/a>, especially\u00a0Target 3<\/a>\u00a0to ensure all new roads are built to a 3-star or better standard for all road users.<\/p>\n
