Road Safety Audit Project

The philosophy of Road Safety Audit at
IRTE focuses on optimisation of road
safety at all project phases of
feasibility, draft design, final
design, construction stage,
and finally before operation
stages. The Department of
Traffic Enforcement which
deals with accident
investigation and the
Department of Forensic
Science which deals with
accident analysis, both
work together as a team
with our Road Safety
E n g i n e e r s t o w a r d s
conducting surveys and studies,
developing tools and systems of
audit and training, and conducting the
Audit itself.
Faridabad Smart City Limited
In the approach of the Smart Cities Mission, the objective is to promote cities that
provide core infrastructure and give a decent quality of life to its citizens, a clean
and sustainable environment and application of 'Smart' Solutions.
In the context, the Faridabad Smart City Limited (FSCL) has approached
Institute of Road Traffic Education (IRTE), Faridabad to provide services relating
to re-audit certain stretches and junctions with reference to:
a) Identify the existing geometrical of roads requiring improvement.
b) Provide improvement plans for Traffic Control Devices (proper traffic signs,
road marking, positioning of CCTV)
c) Identify the needs for police support for efficient and safe movement of traffic.
IRTE has identified the stretch from Badkhal Flyover to Ankheer Chowk as the
first stretch which requires an immediate action. At present L & T is undertaking
the execution of road works for the above stretch.
The contribution of IRTE is to assist in retrofitting procedure and redevelop the
existing road layout into better planned ones. What is visible today in Faridabad:
Congestion, as evidenced by long queues at intersection, and every type of road
traffic violations of the Motor Vehicles Driving Regulations.
We believe that all “retrofit actions” should stress the application of accepted
traffic engineering principles as defined by the UN and IRC Codes of Practice,
which should be corroborated with needs of traffic and road users.
