Verder voorspelt het rapport dat de bestaande wegbehandelingen tegen 2044 bijna 3,2 miljoen doden en ernstig gewonden zullen voorkomen, uitgaande van een gemiddelde effectieve levensduur van 20 jaar.<\/p>\n<p>Deze studie is de eerste die de impact meet van wegenprojecten die wereldwijd gefinancierd worden door overheden, ontwikkelingsbanken en particuliere wegbeheerders, met behulp van de iRAP-methodologie en -instrumenten.<\/p>\n<p>De iRAP-sterrenclassificatiemethode biedt een objectieve maatstaf voor de verkeersveiligheid die inherent is aan de weg voor inzittenden van voertuigen, motorrijders, fietsers en voetgangers. Het presenteert een op bewijs gebaseerde maatstaf voor de waarschijnlijkheid van een ongeval en de ernst ervan. Een weg met 1 ster is het minst veilig, terwijl een weg met 5 sterren het veiligst is.<\/p>\n<p>Voorbeelden van projecten waarin de iRAP-methodologie is toegepast, zijn onder meer:<\/p>\n<p>In Karnataka, India, daalde het aantal doden met 541 ton en het aantal gewonden met 421 ton op een traject van 62 km van de snelweg Belagavi \u2013 Yaragatti; in Victoria, Australi\u00eb, daalde het aantal doden met 771 ton en het aantal ziekenhuisdagen met 741 ton op 1.730 km van belangrijke snelwegen; er waren geen doden en het aantal gewonden daalde met 891 ton op een traject van snelweg 4028 in Thailand; in Shaanxi, China, daalde het aantal verkeersdoden met 331 ton en het aantal gewonden met meer dan de helft (531 ton) op 850 km wegen; in Albani\u00eb daalde het aantal verkeersdoden met 231 ton na behandeling op 1.335 km van de drukste hoofd- en secundaire wegen van het land; in Engeland daalde het aantal doden met 541 ton op meer dan 7.000 km van strategische wegen. En in Colombia leidden snelheidslimietverlagingen op basis van iRAP-beoordelingen tot een vermindering van het aantal dodelijke slachtoffers met 22%.<\/p>\n<p>Rob McInerney, CEO van iRAP, zei: &quot;We zijn enorm trots en dankbaar voor elk leven dat onze partners wereldwijd hebben gered. We weten niet wie we hebben gered, maar we weten wel dat het iemand had kunnen zijn van wie u of ik houden. Dit onderzoek toont aan dat landen en organisaties die de iRAP-methodologie en -instrumenten gebruiken om investeringen in veiligere wegen te onderbouwen \u2013 zoals trottoirs en oversteekplaatsen, fietspaden, vangrails en verkeersremmende maatregelen \u2013 een re\u00eble en meetbare impact hebben.&quot;\u201c<\/p>\n<p>De iRAP-partnerschappen strekken zich nu uit over meer dan 125 landen, 1,8 miljoen kilometer aan sterrenbeoordelingen van wegen en wegontwerpen, en 1,8 miljoen kilometer aan risicokaarten, waarmee de veiligheid van meer dan 100 miljard dollar aan investeringen in wegen wordt be\u00efnvloed.<\/p>\n<p>Wereldwijd is het aantal verkeersdoden en -gewonden voor het eerst sinds de start van de metingen gedaald, volgens de meest recente gegevens.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.who.int\/teams\/social-determinants-of-health\/safety-and-mobility\/global-status-report-on-road-safety-2023\">Wereldgezondheidsorganisatie (WHO),\u00a0<\/a>waarin de verbetering van de wegkwaliteit als een belangrijke factor werd aangemerkt. Het wereldwijde actieplan voor het decennium van verkeersveiligheid 2021-2030 stelde als doel dat de meeste ritten tegen 2030 over wegen met een beoordeling van 3 sterren of hoger zouden plaatsvinden, en dat alle nieuwe wegen aan die normen zouden voldoen.<\/p>\n<p>Abdulgafoor M. Bachani, medeauteur van het rapport en directeur van de Johns Hopkins International Injury Research Unit (JH-IIRU), zei: &quot;De wereld is constant in beweging. Mensen pendelen naar hun werk, lopen naar school, doen boodschappen en houden zich bezig met allerlei dagelijkse activiteiten. De Safe System-aanpak erkent deze realiteit en benadrukt &#039;veilige weginfrastructuur&#039; als een essentieel onderdeel van het raamwerk. Het is daarom van cruciaal belang dat de integratie ervan in stedelijke planning en ontwikkelingsinitiatieven prioriteit krijgt in elke stad, elk land en elke regio. We zijn optimistisch dat deze studie het belang van veilige infrastructuur zal benadrukken en de wereldwijde inspanningen op het gebied van verkeersveiligheid nieuw leven zal inblazen.&quot;\u201c<\/p>\n<p>Saul Billingsley, uitvoerend directeur van FIA Foundation, zei: &quot;FIA Foundation is enorm trots een belangrijke donor te zijn van het werk van iRAP, dat de instrumenten en methodologie ontwikkelt om wegen veiliger te maken voor iedereen. Deze analyse toont de diepgaande impact aan die iRAP wereldwijd heeft. Honderdduizenden doden en ernstig gewonden worden voorkomen door veilige wegbeoordelingen, -ontwerpen en -verbeteringen. Nu hebben we meer overheidsinvesteringen en steun van ontwikkelingsbanken nodig om de komende vijf jaar veiligere weginfrastructuur te realiseren, zodat we er alles aan kunnen doen om de doelstellingen van het Decennium van de Verkeersveiligheid en de Duurzame Ontwikkelingsdoelen te bereiken.&quot;\u201c<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"et-button\" href=\"https:\/\/resources.irap.org\/General\/Media_Release_iRAP_700000_FSIs_saved-John_Hopkins_Report.pdf\">Download het persbericht<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"et-button\" href=\"https:\/\/journals.plos.org\/plosone\/article?id=10.1371\/journal.pone.0301993\">Lees het volledige, door vakgenoten beoordeelde artikel.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"et-button\" href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/GiVrPYq1tuo\">Watch the recorded Launch Event %22The Story Behind the Numbers%22 <\/a><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"et-button\" href=\"https:\/\/resources.irap.org\/General\/2024_iRAP_Webinar_Agenda_The_Story_Behind_the_Numbers.pdf\">Bekijk de agenda van het lanceringsevenement.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"et-button\" href=\"https:\/\/resources.irap.org\/General\/700000_saved_iRAP_webinar_QA.pdf\">Lees de veelgestelde vragen van het lanceringswebinar.<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><strong>Vier je bijdrage<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/resources.irap.org\/General\/700000_Saved_iRAP_Partner_Toolkit.pdf\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/irap.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/JHU-Partner-Toolkit-image.png\" alt=\"JHU Partner Toolkit image\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"et-button\" href=\"https:\/\/resources.irap.org\/General\/700000_Saved_iRAP_Partner_Toolkit.pdf\">Download de Partner Announcement Toolkit<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"et-button\" href=\"https:\/\/seafile.irap.org\/d\/0ebf6a10a7984914b6ec\/\">Krijg toegang tot afbeeldingen voor sociale media in 5 talen.<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><strong>Voorbeelden van succesvolle casestudies<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>(Klik om te vergroten)<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/irap.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Slide1.jpg\" alt=\"Slide1\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/irap.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/TAC-case-study.png\" alt=\"TAC case study\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"et-button\" href=\"https:\/\/irap.org\/nl\/success-stories\/\">Bekijk de volledige reeks casestudies<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/irap.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Slide4.jpg\" alt=\"Slide4\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/irap.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Slide12.jpg\" alt=\"Slide12\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Luister naar onze partners<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/irap.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Abulgafoor-Bachani-quote.png\" alt=\"Abulgafoor Bachani quote\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/irap.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Saul-Billingsley-quote.png\" alt=\"Saul Billingsley quote\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/irap.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Rob-McInerney-quote.png\" alt=\"Rob McInerney quote\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/_ifdqVMWBP0\">Bekijk de video<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/XwidRPBZgZU\">Bekijk de video<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/47K00Gj8t1U\">Bekijk de video<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Heb je de sessie gemist?
