These problems are most starkly manifested in deaths in road accidents. In the South African Road Safety Manual (Volume 7), a number of physical measures have been identified w ith which road safety problems can be addressed. The follow ing such measures w ill help to address safety problems in Sedibeng: • Pedestrian safety measures: These measures include barrier kerbing, developed sidew alks, w alking strips and pedestrian crossings. Along most routes, but especially in the tow nship areas, there is a huge need for the development of such measures. • Public transport bays: Public transport vehicles load all along the class 2, 3 and 4 routes especially in the tow nship areas. This fact should be accepted and a loading bay should be provided every 400 m along public transport routes. Ancillary facilities such as shelters, would also provide a safer waiting location for the passengers. • Traffic calming measures: These are very useful speed control measures, whether it be 3- or 4-way stops, traffic circles, chicanes or speed humps. There is a need for such measures along the class 4 and 5 roads in Sedibeng. (Implementation should be along the appropriate guidelines.) • Side road traffic control measures: Every road that intersects w ith a class 2, 3 or 4 road, should be controlled w ith either a stop or a yield sign, if it is not signalised. SDM DITP, 2008 to 2013 132 31 Aug 2010
• Road lighting: There are still some road sections in especially the tow nship areas which do not have lighting apart from high-mast lighting. It should be a matter of principle that all class 2, 3 and 4 roads will have adequate street lighting along those roads. In addition, some remedial measures include the follow ing: • Management measures: In the South African Road Safety Manual a number of maintenance and management plans have been identified, w hich if effectively implemented, w ill resolve a number of the safety problems in Sedibeng. • Incident Management Plan: An incident refers to “an accident, vehicle breakdow n, spilled load or other random event that reduces the capacity of the roadw ay.” It consists of five phases, namely: detection, response, on-site management, clearance and follow-up. Of specific importance for Sdibeng w ill be the management of an accident database linked to a GIS. • Traffic Signal Management Plan: This aspect is dealt w ith elsew here in this DITP. • Traffic Signs and Road Markings Management Plan: This aspect is dealt with elsew here in this DITP. • Pavement Management Plan: If the Pavement Management System is implemented effectively (w ith little or no budgetary restraints), no pavement related safety incidents should become critical in Sedibeng. • Roadside Maintenance Plan: Routine and collision maintenance endeavours, including the clearing of rubbish and the cutting of vegetation as well as the removal of illegal structures from w ithin the road reserve, will go a long w ay tow ards eradicating unnecessary roadside hazards. • Drainage Management Plan: The regular cleaning of storm w ater systems will prevent periodic flooding and the depositing of silt on the road surfaces. The follow ing Road Traffic Safety Management tools are defined in the Road Safety Manual: • set up a reliable road accident database on a GIS; • road safety audits should be completed annually at those road elements identified as priority problem areas on the road netw ork; • development and implementation of the remedial measures; • develop and implement road safety hazard management procedures in terms of the management and maintenance plans; • apply road safety design principles to new road projects through ensuring that an independent safety audit is part and parcel of the design and approval process; • community liaison to ensure better achievement of road safety objectives, especially w ith respect to traffic calming issues; • education and training; • publicity and marketing; • law enforcement; and • setting of road safety targets on a annual basis w hich can be measured through the road accident database.
