Abstract

In the past decades several successful road traffic safety measures were implemented to improve road safety situation in various countries around the world based on international technology and knowledge transfer. A new methodology for design guideline implementation based on international technology and knowledge transfer will be described in this paper. The objective of the proposed methodology is to foster the development and implementation of design guidelines for road infrastructure in emerging and developing countries - and here especially in Thailand. The transfer and adaptation of proven design methods and technologies is proposed as an appropriate measure to close existing gaps of knowledge and help to improve road traffic safety in these countries in an efficient way. The paper was prepared by the partners of the international network "NICE on RoadS - EU-Asia Network In Competence Enhancement on Road Safety" with financial support from the European Commission.
