BUT MR. JONES ADDED THAT ADVICE IS BEING SOUGHT AND THE MAIN OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY WILL BE:
* TO IDENTIFY HIGH ACCIDENT LOCATIONS AND THEIR
CAUSES-
* TO DEVELOP A SYSTEM FOR FORECASTING THE LIKELY REDUCTIONS
IN ACCIDENTS AND ACCIDENT SEVERITY WHICH COULD RESULT FROM VARIOUS ROAD IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS AND ROAD SAFETY PROGRAMMES- AND
* TO DEVELOP AN ANALYSIS OF THE COST EFFECTIVENESS OF VARIOUS
PROPOSED IMPROVEMENT SCHEMES.
TO ASSIST IN MEETING THESE OBJECTIVES THE ADVISER WOULD BE ASKED TO EXAMINE THE PRESENT SYSTEM OF COLLECTION OF TRAFFIC ACCIDENT DATA AND THE POINT RAISED BY MR. LOBO WOULD ALSO BE PUT TO HIM FOR CONSIDERATION, MR. JONES SAID.
