3. Abstract
Road accidents pose a significant global challenge, resulting in countless fatalities,
injuries, and economic losses each year. India, known for its high traffic volume
and diverse road conditions, presents a compelling case study to investigate road
accident prevention techniques.
Barrier is a type of obstruction that tries to keep vehicles within their road lanes
and prevent them from collision with obstacles or other vehicles. There are more
chances of accidents on sharp horizontal curves. Barriers are provided on sides of
horizontal curve. These barriers can reduce the number of accidents, but when
vehicle collides with the barrier, it causes high damage to vehicle, injury to
human body or even death. As after the collision the vehicle is not in control, it
may be overthrown or suddenly stopped

4. Safety can be increased by reducing the impact of vehicle collisions with the use of
rolling barrier system
The rolling barrier system is part of the road safety infrastructure that is used to
improve and maintain road safety. It is also possible to overcome and reduce the
number of crashes.
Rolling barriers provides cushioning effect during a crash, Reduces the high-speed
effect, constitutes material resilience with stiffness and have other performance
characteristics that reduce injury to occupants and damage to the vehicle.
They convert that impact energy into rotational energy to propel the vehicle forward
rather than potentially breaking through an immovable barrier. When a car hits the
barrier, the rotating barrel converts shock from the vehicle to rotational energy.

5. By using rolling barriers on horizontal curve, number of deaths, damage to vehicle
or injury to human body can be minimized.
Use of these rolling barriers have proved to be effective. It has been used in many
developed countries and it should be used in India seeing current situations to
reduce the damage and loss of lives.

6. Introduction
Road safety has become a major concern in today’s society. According
to the World Health Organization (WHO) in year 2020, road accidents is
the world's 8th leading cause of death.
Road traffic deaths are accounted for 23% of all
injury deaths worldwide India ranks at the top with highest number of
fatalities with about 11% share in the world . The issue of road safety
becomes even more important for India having one of the largest road
networks in the world As per the data of MoRTH a large number of
accidents occurs on horizontal curves and 42% of collision is with the
barriers.

7. Conventional barriers like strong metal bars commonly referred as guardrails
and RCC barriers are provided to prevent head crashes . Some times this
barriers can't give guarantee the safety of vehicle as well as passengers . For
safety reason and saving human lives we are introducing the Rolling barrier.
The purpose of using rolling barriers is to reduce accident risks, keep
vehicles on track, reduce collision damage to vehicles, and preserve the lives of
the driver and passengers.
One of the advantages of this system is that it is a system to reduce
sudden shocks for vehicles as it works to convert collision energy into rotational
energy, easy maintenance, and installation.

8. The Rolling barriers made up of urethane rubber possesses both flexible and
rigid property. Urethane has become the material of choice in so many of today's
performance-driven technologies.
This is due to urethane's superior physical and mechanical properties when
compared to other material.
It can be manufactured from recycled materials or Eco-friendly
material and contains a reflective tape. This gives a clear view at night increases
the chances of passenger safety and prevents the vehicle from tipping over, and it
has a longer life than traditional barriers, so the maintenance and installation cost
is easy

9. Here our target is to save lives of passengers after crashing and to minimize the
number of road accidents we are introducing an idea Rolling barrier to save
lives.

10. Objective
• The objective of this project is to design of rolling barrier system as
highway safety measure for a proposed stretch of straight and curved
roads .
• To reduce high damage to the vehicles and injury to humans.
• To reduce 94% accidental causing deaths.
• To increase safety in Highway Transportation

1) Study of rolling barrier system by SARVER Zahoor, TARUN
SharmaInt J Adv Res Sci Technol 6, 2019 :
The Government is looking for the new
technologies in order to reduce the accidents on the roads and
improve the safety of the road user. In 2015,501423 road accident
happens in which 146133 people were died [1]. In 2016 road
accidents decreases by 4.1% in which near about 480652 road
accident occur and 150785 people were died [1]. In 2017 road crash
fatalities increases by 3% in last 2 years[1,2]. A small korean company
develops a new product in order to reduce the harsh impact of
guardrails and hopefully save lives. The product is Rolling barrier or
longitudinal barrier which had continuous pipes covered with
urethane rings.

This review paper aims to critically analyze existing prevention strategies and
interventions employed on the Pune-Mumbai Highway to enhance road safety and
mitigate accident risks. The paper begins by providing an overview of the current
state of road accidents and their consequences worldwide. It then narrows down the
focus to the specific context of the Pune-Mumbai Highway, highlighting its
characteristics, traffic patterns, and accident statistics.
The findings of this review paper can serve as a valuable resource for
policymakers, transportation authorities, and researchers in formulating evidence-
based strategies to prevent road accidents on the Pune-Mumbai Highway and
similar road networks.
