Exchange knowledges and techniques on roads and road transportation New Road Safety Manual  Authoritative global safety resource  Support the UN Decade of Action  Structured knowledge-base organized from policy-level considerations to technical guidelines  Policy makers, middle management, and practitioners  Countries in different stages of development  Highlight noteworthy practices from around the world

3. Exchange knowledges and techniques on roads and road transportation Approach to project  RSM Structure Three key parts  Part 1: Introduction  Part 2: Road Safety Management  Part 3: Safe Planning, Design, Operation, and Use of the Road Network  Technical Appendices  Case studies  Engineering focus with an incorporation of human factors (including enforcement)

4. Exchange knowledges and techniques on roads and road transportation Approach to project  Addressing different users  Lower and Middle Income Countries (LMICs) and High Income Countries  Different road user groups (e.g. pedestrians, motorcyclists)  Vulnerable road users a major issue particularly in LMICs  Senior management   practitioners

5. Exchange knowledges and techniques on roads and road transportation Safe system Shift from crash prevention towards eliminating deaths and injuries Directly addresses the needs of vulnerable road users and others Encourages safety to be designed into developing road networks rather than being considered an afterthought Aligns with the Millennium Development Goals
