Road Safety Inspection
An on-site examination of an existing road: we identify sections and features that increase crash risk and severity and propose measures to eliminate them.
An on-site examination of an existing road: we identify sections and features that increase crash risk and severity and propose measures to eliminate them.
The road is already in service and you need to know what is dangerous on it now: worn markings, obstructed visibility, poles and trees near the edge, crossings that are inconvenient for pedestrians.
An inspection is a scheduled check of the facilities and maintenance of a road in service. An audit checks the design, an inspection - what has already been built and is in operation.
We agree the sections, the season and time of the inspection and the content of the report.
We study crash records for the section and residents' complaints, if any: this shows where to look first.
Drive-through and walk-through inspection with photo and video records and coordinates, by day and at night if needed.
We rate each deficiency by risk: what is dangerous now and what can be included in scheduled works.
A list of measures divided into urgent, routine and capital.
