TRAFFIC SAFETY

Road safety audit
  • What is a road safety audit?
    Road safety audit – a process during which traffic specialists check the road design, looking for inappropriate solutions from the point of view of traffic safety. The purpose of the road safety audit is to detect and eliminate traffic safety problems before the project solutions are implemented and before the cost of eliminating the deficiencies is small.

    When is a road safety audit necessary?
    The greatest benefit will be achieved and the least cost to eliminate defects will be achieved when the project is tested at every stage of its life, from planning to early road operation. In this case, planning errors will be corrected during the planning stage, technical errors – in the technical design, construction errors – before the construction is completed, etc.
    It is obvious that the planning or design errors will not be corrected after the construction is completed, or it will cost a lot.

    If the life cycle of the road project has started, and the road safety audit was not carried out in the previous stages, the road safety audit must be carried out in the later stages of the project development.

    Who is responsible for carrying out the road safety audit procedure?
    The road safety audit procedure must be initiated by the road owner.

Road Safety Impact Assessment

Information is being updated.

Road safety checks (inspections)
  • What is a road safety inspection (inspection)?
    Road safety inspection is a process during which traffic specialists check the condition of the existing road. During the road safety inspection, traffic safety deficiencies are identified, which are easy to eliminate in the process of road maintenance work: marking defects, obstacles limiting visibility, safety defects of road structures, etc.

    Targeted inspections (eg tagging) or night inspections may be carried out as necessary.

    When is a road safety check (inspection) required?
    A road safety inspection must be carried out at least every 3 years.

    Who is responsible for carrying out the road safety inspection procedure?
    The road safety inspection must be initiated by the owner of the road.

Setting up multiple levels of network security
  • What are the security levels of multiple networks?
    Road network safety levels are information about the emergency level of road sections. During this process, traffic specialists determine the levels of accidents in the road network and look for reasons why a group of road sections that are very similar to each other are more dangerous than others.

    When do you need to set up multiple levels of network security?
    Determination of road network safety levels on main and regional roads and streets of categories A and B should be carried out at least every 3 years.

    Who is responsible for establishing multiple levels of network security?
    Determining road network security levels is mandatory for main and regional roads of national significance and recommended for other roads and streets. The procedure must be initiated by the road owner.

    What regulates the determination of multiple network security levels in Lithuania?

Modeling of intersections

If you are thinking about the reconstruction of an intersection, but you have doubts about the impact of the solutions on traffic flow, traffic engineering specialists who use advanced computer programs to simulate various scenarios for the reconstruction or construction of intersections will help you make a decision.

During the modeling of intersections, various indicators of traffic flows are predicted: traffic quality level, delays, queue lengths, exhaust gas emissions, etc.

Submission of project proposals

We provide various traffic safety design proposals: for intersections, paths, engineering traffic safety measures, etc. The information is useful for preparing design or design-build technical specifications.

Driving speed measurements

Getting speeding complaints but missing actual data? Thinking about installing a stationary speed measuring device, but lacking arguments? Want to check how drivers comply with road sign requirements? Are you planning other traffic safety measures?

Specialists of the Transport Competence Agency can use special equipment to perform statistical measurements of driving speed and determine the speed of each passing car, the maximum recorded driving speed, average driving speed, V85 speed and other indicators of driving speed and traffic intensity.

Traffic planning and organization consultations

Specialists of the Transport Competence Agency provide various traffic planning and organization consultations.

Seminars and trainings

Specialists of the Transport Competence Agency conduct seminars and trainings on various topics of traffic organization and traffic safety.

We rely on the constantly observed best practices of Lithuania and Western Europe, normative documents, the preparation of which we often contribute, and the conclusions of scientific research.

We can come to your city or your company and prepare the training program according to individual needs.
