Climatic phenomena and traffic safety in mountain roads of Iran (Case Study: Sanandaj – Hamedan Road) Abstract Peyman Mahmoudi (Centre of Applied Meteorological Researches of Sistan and Baluchestan, Zahedan, Iran) Dostmohammad Kalim (Centre of Applied Meteorological Researches of Sistan and Baluchestan, Zahedan, Iran) Khaled ghaderi Zeh (Univ. of Sistan and Baluchistan, Sistan and Baluchistan. Zahedan, Iran) Accidents are one of the bad aspects of each kind of transportation system, especially the road transportation. There are always four elements interring in this disaster: human, vehicle, road and environment. Among the environmental elements the climate and related phenomena are the most effective ones. Although these phenomena are inevitable and even in some cases are out of human's control and empowerment, we can reduce the effect of some of them to minimum level by helping road designing methods and on time attending of the road maintenance agents in the place. In this paper, first the critical threshold of Sanandaj-Hamedan road is determined as a case study and then the accidents of this road are analyzed in the cold months of the year, in order to check the effect of climatologically parameters on safety of road transportations. The obtained results of the data analysis are as follows: 1- March is the most dangerous month in Sanandaj - Hamedan road in which gales flow (with the speed of more than 10 m/s). 2- January is the most dangerous month for the visibility of less than 1000 m, frost and snowfall. 3- Among the atmospheric instabilities, most accidents have occurred under cloudy weather. 4- The most accidents occurred in March whose rate is 22.4 percent. 5- The most accidental part sheet in Sanandaj- Hamedan road is the first segment (1-5 km from Sanandaj). Keywords Climate, Accident, Transportation safety, Critical Threshold, Snandaj- Hamedan Road 1. Introduction Transportation in a country plays the role of vessels in a body which human's health is depended to their health and verity of them and their blood. As describes it is a change of time and place of people‘s position and goods by using the technical tools (vehicle and road). One of the undesirable sides of each transportation system which can be mentioned is accident. A majority accident occurs when the vehicle can not adapt itself with the environment. We should always consider four elements of human, vehicle, road and environment together in analysis of this heart – rending phenomenon. Although different experts like geologists, geomorphologists, civil engineers, economists, industrial designers and etc, have studied the case according to their kind of skill and view, Proceedings of IEDC 2010, 1-3 July, 2010 165 IEDC-2152-106
