3. CONCLUSION

Benefits to be gained after implementation:


 Minimise the risk and severity of road crashes that may be affected by the road project at the
Construction Site or on adjacent roads.
 Minimise the need for remedial works after construction. Reduce the whole Life Cycle costs
of the project.
 Improve the awareness of safe design practices by everyone involved in the planning,
design, construction and maintenance of roads.

The cost of a road safety audit and the consequent cost of changing a design are significantly less
than the cost of remedial treatments after works have been constructed, or the social cost of road
crashes. It is easier to change design plans than to move or alter construction works during
tendering process.
