Update of the "Traffic Safety Guide for Local Authorities"
Abstract
Commissioned by the Austrian Association of Cities the "Traffic Safety Guide for Local Authorities" has been compiled in 2002. It was especially dedicated to local municipal authorities. The main ideas of the brochure are to point up traffic safety as a fundamental matter of local interest and to provide "tools" for increasing local traffic safety. This first edition is out of print by now. Since the local traffic safety is still a topic of high priority the updating of the guide has been conducted. The basic structure of that new 2. Edition (2006) is taken from the first issue (2002). All information regarding accident occurrence data, however, are updated. Data of the year 2005 for all Austrian municipalities are supplemented and compared to those previously showing the situation of the year 2000. The brochure also shows which municipalities achieved the goals in terms of local accident occurrence previously suggested for 2010 already in 2005. This data allow a rough estimation whether or not different approaches of the municipalities are promising in order to increase local traffic safety.
