Advancing the Safe System Working Group

To help avoid crashes that kill and maim millions of people every year, this project will further develop and test a comprehensive framework for implementing a Safe System. It builds on a previous joint ITF–World Bank Working Group whose 2022 report, The Safe System Approach in Action, proposes such a Safe System framework and offers lessons from countries, regions and cities that have introduced the Safe System into their road-safety strategies. The current Working Group will use this framework to guide a series of Safe System pilot projects and identify lessons learned from these pilots to improve the framework.The intended result is a validated framework that can serve as a practical tool for implementing and evaluating Safe System interventions around the world. A list of the pilot projects will be made available on this page shortly.
