•OBJECTIVES OF PEER REVIEW– Provide an Independent Assessment of the INDII –

DGH Road Safety Activities.– Review the Consultants’ Recommendations for the

Future Programme of Technical Assistance Support of the Development of Road Safety in DGH.

– Recommend Appropriate Amendments or Additions for the future Programme or its Activities.

3

•TASKS:– Review Background Documents.– Carry out Interviews of Consultants and DGH Staff.– Comment on the Effectiveness and Impact of the

Work Carried out in Activities 014, 194 and 195.– Identify Strengths and Weaknesses of the Road

Safety Programme and Lessons Learnt.– Review the Current Activities Involving Other

Agencies.– Provide Input into the Future Direction of the INDII

Support of the Road Safety Programme in Indonesia

4

•Progress to-date:– RSEU set up with a core team of 5 staff supported

by 3 consultants.– Workshops held to increase awareness of road

safety activities.– RSAs and Crash Reduction Reports prepared and

supported by RSEU staff.– Road Safety Manuals prepared to illustrate road

safety engineering, road safety at roadworks and roadside hazard management.

5

•Establishment of Road Safety Unit.– Core team has not yet reached critical mass.– Requires further support.– Message slowly filtering through DGH and Regions.– Insufficient data to support firm accident reduction

plan.– Action strategy to be developed to give direction to

remaining stages of development.– Allocate budget in accordance with strategy.– Increase cross agency co-operation.

6

•Road Safety Audits and Crash Reduction Programme.– Provide sufficient funding to implement the

recommendations of RSAs carried out under Activity 194.

– Follow through with pre-opening audits at completion of the works.

– Provide sufficient funding to implement recommendations within the crash reduction reports.

– Increase programme to cover all regions (at least one in each region).

7

•Road Safety Manuals– Manuals can be used as guidelines for future

designs.– Risk of them being too detailed and not easy to use.– Manuals need to be adopted at the highest level.– Series needs expanding to include topics such as

Road Safety Audits, Traffic Calming and Speed Management.

8

•Other initiatives• IRSMS– Ensure that requirements for road safety engineers

is collected at the time of the crash. Input is required by DGH.

9

•Future Initiatives ?– Concentrates on other agencies.– Includes vulnerable users needs (i.e. school zones).– Produce new Traffic Signs and Line Marking Manual– Education programmes.– Crash analysis for South Kalimantan corridor.– Demonstration projects.
