injured every day
• 90% of deaths in low and middle
income countries
• Biggest killer of 10-17 year old
children
• Significant personal and financial
impacts on families

Safer Roads: Crashes that kill
Motorcyclists & Vehicle Occupants
• Head-on crashes
• Brutal side impacts at intersections
• Hitting roadside hazards
Pedestrians and Bicyclists
• Crossing the road
• Moving along the road
iRAP Risk Mapping
• Crashes per kilometre & per kilometre travelled

iRAP Performance Tracking
• Objective measure for tracking performance
• International standard and local benchmark
• Key component of National Road Safety Strategies
Page 9
iRAP Star Ratings
• Repeatable measure of the current condition of the road
• Based on visual assessment of over 30 road features
• Car occupants, motorcyclists, pedestrians and bicyclists

Safer Roads Investment Plan
• 70 proven engineering treatments
• Economic return calculated for all
potential projects (BCR & IRR)
• Minimum criteria (e.g. BCR > 5)

The APEC iRAP Opportunity
• Eliminate High Risk Roads
• Target the worst 10% of the road network
• Aim for 500 kilometres / million population
• 1 in every 4 fatalities can be saved
• Potential to save 8 million deaths and serious injuries (20 years)
• Makes good economic sense
• $20 of benefits for every $1 invested
• Health sector, transport sector and business benefits
