To summarize - Action Plan for <strong>India</strong>n Roads (Contd…)<br />
• Unfortunately, the road maintenance is limited to fixing<br />
pot-holes and clearing of drainage facilities and plantation<br />
without replacing the missing / dilapidated traffic signs,<br />
guard rails, road markings and other safety features<br />
essential to create a safe road network.<br />
• In addition, safety measures incorporated in the road<br />
design of highways based on the RSA carried out at<br />
different Stages of Audit (esp. Design Stage) are frequently<br />
deleted with a view to reducing the overall cost of<br />
projects.<br />
• This defeats the basic aim of design of road to tackle<br />
road safety issues from the beginning and obviate future<br />
problems.
