This document discusses the concept of a safe city and its importance for civil engineering. It defines a safe city as a place where residents feel secure with minimal risks. Ensuring safety should be considered from the early stages of civil projects. Common urban safety challenges include traffic, natural disasters, crime, and public health issues. The document outlines strategies for planning safe transportation networks, using smart technologies, ensuring safe water and sanitation, addressing public health, and implementing crime prevention through urban design. In conclusion, creating safe cities is paramount for civil engineering as urbanization increases and addressing safety challenges is essential for community well-being.

8. Public Health and Urban Planning
 Address public health concerns related to urban areas, such as air quality and
access to healthcare facilities.
 Explain how civil engineering projects can contribute to healthier living
environments.

9. Crime Prevention and Urban Design
 The aim of this Action is to contribute to structuring existing knowledge and
to developing innovative approaches on how to build more secure and safe
cities
 The Justice and Home Affairs Council of the EU has underlined that crime
prevention through design is a successful and effective strategy for crime
prevention and needs to be supported

10. Conclusion
 concept of creating safe cities is of paramount importance in the field of civil
engineering.
 urbanization continues to increase, addressing safety challenges becomes
essential to ensure the well-being.
 Key aspects of safe city planning include developing efficient and safe
transportation systems, adopting smart technologies for surveillance and
emergency response, and implementing crime prevention strategies through
urban design.
