The Belize Road Safety Initiative aimed to reduce road traffic fatalities and injuries in Belize through a multi-pronged approach. The initiative found that Belize's road network lacked safety standards, enforcement was insufficient, and agencies lacked coordination and capacity to properly address the problem. An assessment of 600 km of roads revealed 70% were rated only 1-2 stars for safety. Through projects targeting road improvements, driver education, and emergency response, the initiative helped reduce road traffic fatalities and injuries by approximately 35%, though continued work is still needed as fatalities increased on non-intervention roads. Lessons learned included the benefits of comprehensive reviews, stakeholder engagement, collaboration, and having a champion to lead the efforts.

RV 2015: Sustainable Corridors: Broad and Specific Looks by Robert HastingsRail~Volution
What does it mean to build a sustainable corridor? How do you honor the overall goal of conserving resources, but also engage stakeholders to develop the right type of project for their community? Take a wider look at the national perspective on building sustainable corridors. What is being done across the country to conserve resources and involve communities in these efforts? Then hear stories about a successful sustainable corridor in Portland; Albuquerque's BRT project; and an urban green plan to transform existing park-and-ride lots along Los Angeles' growing transit network into more sustainable places.

Road safety in bangladesh realities and challengesPolicy Adda
The presentation of a comprehensive research on road safety issues presented by Dr Hossain Zillur Rahman, Executive Director, PPRC, also a former adviser to Caretaker Government.
It reveals that five districts, namely Dhaka, Chittagong, Comilla, Tangail and Sirajganj of the country are most prone to road accident. It also reveals that 38 per cent traffic accidents involve buses, which is more than any other kinds of vehicles involved in such incidents.
The research report titled 'Road safety in Bangladesh: Realities and Challenges' was launched at an event on August 13 Wednesday at The Daily Star auditorium in the capital, organised by non-governmental organisation BRAC and Power and Participation Research Center, PPRC in short. PPRC carried out the research commissioned by BRAC. Honourable communication minister Obaidul Quader attended as the chief guest.
The launch of the report was organised on the day of the third death anniversary of noted filmmaker Tareque Masud and eminent journalist Mishuk Munier, who, along with three others, were killed in a road accident on Dhaka-Manikganj Highway in 2011.
The research reveals important data and information, presenting a comprehensive scenario of the country's road safety reality. According to the analysis of the report, Most road accidents occur in a length of 57 kilometres, distributed in different stretches in different highways.
Findings of the research also challenge the popular perception that road accidents usually happen in isolated areas of highways and show that more accidents occur in the congested and busy portions ─ 40.90 per cent happen at or around bus stands, followed by 28.40 per cent accidents happening at the roadside village markets. Among different types of vehicles, bus has proved most fatal, causing 38 per cent road crashes.
WHO has identified traffic accidents as the eighth cause for unnatural death with over 1.2 million annual deaths. The research also reports reckless driving as the most frequent cause of road accidents, while lack of adequate training, unfit vehicles, problems in road structure, weak implementation of traffic law and impunity of the perpetrators remain other important causes.
Road accidents are the new ‘epidemic’ sweeping across much of the developing world. For Bangladesh too with its rapid urbanization and exponential growth of transport networks, safety on the roads has emerged as an inescapable priority. BRAC with a strong record of engagement on the issue commissioned Power and Participation Research Centre (PPRC) to undertake a causal study on road safety to inform an appropriate advocacy strategy on this crucial national concern.
