25 jueves, 14 de mayo de 2015 The influence of heavy goods vehicle traffic on accidents: the analysis In two freight transportation corridors Contents Methodology Scenarios Results in corridor Conclusions Results Freight Transp. corridors CONCLUSIONS For all the scenarios taken into account, on the high capacity roads (AP, AV) there is a significant reduction in the total number of accidents, which varies between 16.38% for the Ba scenario of the MB corridor and 7.35% for the Bc scenario of the SB corridor. Likewise, on the sections of single carriageway roads (C) there are significant increases in the total number of traffic accidents, whose maximum and minimum values are: 28.06% for the Bc scenario on the MB corridor and 6.52% for the Aa scenario on the SB corridor.

26 jueves, 14 de mayo de 2015 The influence of heavy goods vehicle traffic on accidents: the analysis In two freight transportation corridors Contents Methodology Scenarios Results in corridor Conclusions Results Freight Transp. corridors CONCLUSIONS In all cases a reduction in the total number of accidents would occur as a result in the drop in the number of heavy goods transport vehicles (%HGVs). This drop varies between 46 for the SB corridor Bc scenario and 141 for the MB corridor Aa scenario. In all cases, the higher the traffic intensity (AADT), as a result of the induction of other vehicular traffic, the higher the number of accidents is, due to the increase in exposure. This effect is greater on single carriageway road segments compared to high capacity roads

27 jueves, 14 de mayo de 2015 The influence of heavy goods vehicle traffic on accidents: the analysis In two freight transportation corridors Contents Methodology Scenarios Results in corridor Conclusions Results Freight Transp. corridors CONCLUSIONS The model shows itself to be a useful tool for evaluating the effects of modal transfer policies between road and rail or other forms of transport. This type of analysis provides objective elements for evaluating policies that encourage modal shift and road safety enhancement.
