Situation and Challenge of Road Traffic Safety in China 1 1 Main Content Strategy and Action to Improve Road Traffic Safety 2 3 Vision and Research Orientation of Road Traffic Safety
1) Background: leap development of transportation system In three decades Rapid Development of road traffic, freight transport, road users and traffic volume Auto Society China has completed motorization in a very short time
2) Statistics: The advent of “Auto Society” 285 million motorized vehicles, including 180 million cars with a striking increase Vehicle of 15 million per year 330 million motorized vehicle drivers, Driver Statistics including 280 million car drivers that still increase by 20 million per year 4.6 million km highway with Road 124 thousand km motorway
2) Infrastructure : The advent of “Auto Society” Balinghe Suspension Bridge Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge Ya-xi Motorway Zhongnanshan Motorway Tunnel
2) Statistics: The advent of “Auto Society” 9.8% Highway passenger traffic volume, average annual growth rate nearly 10 years 11.9% Highway freight traffic volume, average annual growth rate
3) Situations of road traffic safety Fatalities significantly decreased in recent 10 years, and will retain a sustaining decrease tendency in the future. Increase Rapid decrease Steady decrease
4) Challenges for road traffic safety Frequent traffic violation Publicity and education on traffic safety should be popularized in a targeted and scientific way Overload and low-speed truck. Inadequate Supervision for vehicle production & sales Standards & specifications implementation Criteria for road safety and assessment should be improved
Situation and Challenge of Road Traffic Safety in China 1 1 Main Content Strategy and Action to Improve Road Traffic Safety 2 3 Vision and Research Orientation of Road Traffic Safety
1) Improvement Strategies Synthetical Countermeasures scientific and technological by integrating policies, innovation, taking concrete Strategy Tactics regulations, standards, measures to lessen traffic plannings and mechanism risks Effectively respond to various challenges, and develop continuously in a more scientific, reasonable and standardized way.
2) Main initiatives Drawing up Road Traffic Safety "12th Five-Year" (2011-2015) Strategic and"13th Five-Year" (2016-2020) Plan Proposal level Strengthen safety supervision responsibility of transportation 1 enterprises 2 Improve passenger and freight transportation safety Major Improve traffic capacity 3 projects 4 Promote traffic law enforcement Promote traffic safety awareness and safe driving ability 5 6 Establish accident emergency and rescue system 7 Enhance scientific research and application ability
3) R&D Activities Highway Safety Enhancement Project – Phase I China MoT had launched the HSEP to eliminate traffic risks in provincial and national trunk highways since 2004 25.3 billion RMB Funding (3.8 billion USD) 2004 ~ 2012 Mileage 366,000 km Average Annual severe accidents decreased 77% and Task: upgrading highways which contain casualties decreased 72% after dangerous sections such as sharp turns HSEP implementation and abrupt slopes, etc.
3) R&D Activities Highway Safety Enhancement Project – Phase II State Council had decided to continue HSEP on all the rural roads since 2014 Main Goals Tasks Finish hidden danger identification in Eliminate hidden danger in rural roads high risk rural roads before 2017 > 65,000 km rural roads Strict in construction of safety facilities Enhance all rural road conditions before 2020 Road safety upgrading
3) R&D Activities 1. Technical Research Application on road safety 1 Roadside safety countermeasures Safety improvement technique at cross 2 sections Safety countermeasures for Motorway 3 in fog areas Safety countermeasures for long 4 downgrade Safety countermeasures for highway 5 tunnel portal areas
3) R&D Activities 2. Road safety facility design Traffic sign system design for Beijing 1 Olympic Game Solar energy applications in traffic 2 engineering facilities New type highway barrier 3 4 Luminous road stud
3) R&D Activities 3. Crash analysis and traffic safety audit Highway safety audit technology 1 research and consultation Highway Safety Manual (version 1.0) 2 In-depth investigation and 3 reconstruction for crash 4 Highway safety information system
3) R&D Activities 4. Crash analysis and traffic safety audit Research and forensic identification on the vehicle safety performance, speed, and 5 movement in road traffic accidents
4) Road Safety Action Plan National Sci-Tech support plan for road traffic safety Ministry of Science & Technology Action plan Ministry of Transport Ministry of Public Security National Funds (42 million USD) 280 million RMB 2008 ~ 2016 Supporting Funds 550 million RMB (83 million USD)
4) Road Safety Action Plan Under a cooperative mechanism among the three Ministries, a series of Hi-Tech researches on road safety with best practice and independent IP rights are anticipated . 1 Supported by Sci-Tech, to improve the ability of road Goals accidents prevention, pre-warning, control and emergency 2 rescue to eliminate fatal and serious injured accidents significantly. 3 To decline fatalities and the number of serious traffic accidents, and the mortality rate in traffic accidents approaches the level of moderately developed country.
5) Main Contents of Action Plan Traffic participants behaviors intervention technology Road traffic management Accidents with Road infrastructure safety mass injuries and safety enforcement enhancement technology. and fatalities technology. Vehicle safety and transportation organizing technology
5) Contents of Action Plan Traffic participants behaviors intervention technology • Traffic participants behaviors analysis technology 1 • Traffic participants behaviors monitoring and intervention technology 2 • Identification and pre-warning technology of abnormal condition of commercial vehicle drivers 3 • Training, test and management technology for drivers 4 • Adaptation analysis of drivers to traffic environment 5 • Road safety communication and education technology 6
5) Contents of Action Plan Road infrastructure safety enhancement technology • Safety assessment technology during road design and operation period 1 • Road infrastructure disease monitoring, pre-warning, repairing technology 2 • Operation safety monitoring and emergency management technology for large bridge and tunnel 3 • Traffic safety monitoring, pre-warning and risk control technology in adverse weather. 4
5) Contents of action plan Vehicle safety and transportation organizing technology. • Vehicle safety performance inspection technology 1 • Transportation organizing technology 2 • Commercial vehicle operation monitoring technology 3
5) Contents of Action Plan Road traffic management and safety enforcement technology. • Traffic enforcement technology 1 • Accidents management and emergency rescue technology 2 • Traffic organization and safety enhancement technology under abnormal conditions 3 • Accidents analysis and reconstruction technology 4 • Rapid response technology of serious traffic accidents 5 • Identification and control technology of traffic violation 6
6) Achievements More Scientific and timely Precaution on traffic safety Better emergency handling capability To minimize road traffic risk from Network establishment on prevention and control traffic accident source and to protect people's Integration of various resources of lives and properties different industries Shorten emergency response time
6) Achievement Display Verified the existing 15 types of roadside protecting facilities by more than 350 simulation experiments and 135 real vehicle tests; Developed 9 types of facilities with high cost-effectiveness Research and integration application of safety enhancement technology for highway in mountain areas
6) Achievement Display Instant blind analysis in tunnel Driving behavior and traffic safety 3D dynamic sight audit integration distance analysis technology V Integration audit software
6) Achievement Display Bad weather forecast, pre-warning and countermeasures Smart guidance and control system R&D and application in fog section
7) Traffic accidents decrease during 2011-2015 # of Crash # of Fatality Severe Crash Major Crash 2011-2015 total 998 thousand 297 thousand 4461 93 Decrease rate 30.2% 21.2% 33.3% 38.4% Efficiency of emergency rescue > 50% Road traffic safety improved significantly !
