“IndiaRAP has Star Rated over 25,000kms of the country’s road network
where one in 5 of world road deaths occur”
With support from the World Bank Global Road Safety Facility (GRSF) and the Bloomberg Philanthropies Initiative for Global Road Safety (BIGRS), over 21,000km of national, state and city roads have been star rated in India which, according to World Health Organization (WHO) estimates, is where more than one in five of the world’s road deaths occur. These assessments are conducted under IndiaRAP in partnership with the MoRTH, NHAI, State Governments, and Private Concessionaires. A range of data inputs and project set-up variables were modified, and the model was calibrated with road network level crash data to ensure the IndiaRAP Star Ratings and Investment Plans reflect local conditions, practice and experience.
Our road safety assessment projects have included,
- Star Ratings and SRIP prepared for 21,000km of State Highways (SH) and National Highway (NH) across 13 states
- Results, which include Star Ratings and cost and benefit estimates for numerous safety treatment options along each road, are being considered in road designs, construction and upgrades
- 2,000km of road designs have been star rated
- Safety Demonstration corridors under World Bank funding in Karnataka and Gujarat have targets to design and build the road to achieve 3-star or better ratings
- Two such corridors are under preparation/construction in Gujarat and Karnataka. Road upgrades on SH-20 in Karnataka has reduced fatalities by 50% after implementation.
- Over 5,000kms of NH are assessed on the Golden Quadrilateral linking Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore and Chennai in partnership with Bloomberg Philanthropies, GRSF and NHAI
- Over 3,000kms of roads are upgraded or under construction
