My thesis focuses on safety on roads R1 215, section 1490, R2 448, section 0220, and R3 651, section 1198. Car accidents and the suitability of geometrical elements on these roads have been looked into and studied. Besides field measurements I made use of the digital orthophotograph. Using the traffic counter that includes speeds I carried out the analysis of the speed and volume of vehicular traffic on sections where speed limits are often exceeded.
I put forward ideas and suggestions to improve road safety on those sections where most offences have been committed. In my thesis I used the following software programs:
AutoCAD, Access, Excel and ViaGraph.
