Σύνοψη

The purpose of my study on the subject "Road Safety" is to arouse the concern of all the people involved in order to achieve traffic orderliness and safety.
The prevention of accidents must be the concern of everyone of us and the motto: "No more blood for the asphalt road monster", should become our common objective.
For that reason, through this project, some solutions are given, and preventive measures are suggested so the accidents to be reduced.
Basis of the examination was Cyprus but various studies and rules such as
highway lighting, sight distances, etc. can be found in other countries also, such
as G. Britain.
The project started with police statistics for Cyprus, analysed the last two years
(1994 - 1995)
Then some reference was made on road geometry, as a factor leading to safety
problems.
Then, the project proceeded with introducing measures for the reduction of fatal
and serious accidents.
Also, some measures for enlightenment of the people were introduced, for reducing the number of traffic accidents. All these measures were suggested for the better prevention of accidents.
