Attachment C
<br />Why is addressing pedestrian safety necessary?
<br />Attachment B
<br />The Safe System approach provides a viable, comprehensive framework to examine
<br />risk factors for pedestrians and to develop integrated interventions that address the
<br />road environment, road users and vehicles, and that maximize pedestrian safety.
<br />The key risk factors for pedestrian road traffic injury are speed, alcohol, lack of
<br />infrastructure facilities for pedestrians and inadequate visibility of pedestrians.
