Highway Design

highway design

Roads safety studies mainly look at the engineering application of the road alignments, road furniture and other elements to maintain/improve the safety of all road users. Methods to find out areas where road safety is lacking and finding countermeasures are major research concerns. At the same time, we provide training for major stakeholders with respect to road safety (seminars, workshops and short courses) and actively support the policy making and related national level activities.
