Description

With the Itinerary Road Safety Inspection (RSI) approach, the French government aimed to design a simple and practical method for improving road safety over the national road network. These  inspections  form  one  of  the  four  pillars  of  the  future  European  directive  concerning  the  management  of  road  infrastructure  safety  (and  which  will  be  applicable  over  the  European  network  -  TERN).  The  other  three  pillars are: • upstream impact studies for projects; • road safety audits for all new road projects; • specific steps to improve the safety of existing roads. This  guide  defines  the  methodology  for  carrying  out  these  itinerary  road  safety  inspections.
