Clearview Intelligence (CI) has launched two free to use Return on Investment (ROI) calculators to assist highway professionals in showing the benefit of improving road safety on their network. The tools are said to demonstrate how road safety schemes pay for themselves during their lifetime as well as quantify the number of lives saved and injuries prevented.

Designed for SolarLite Active Road Stud installations and the other for combination road safety solutions, the tools use the costs of accidents from the Department for Transport (DfT) associated with the value of preventing road casualties that are offset against a Clearview safety scheme. It includes key cost factors such as the road type and killed or seriously injured reduction targets; the basic cost components of the scheme and; a few details about the individual using the tool. In addition, the total ROI broken down into monetary savings and lives saved per annum are also considered.

Wayne Stant, marketing director of CI, said: “Clearview Intelligence are committed to improving the safety of all road users as part of our ambition to make journeys work. Our forty years’ experience of working with network managers has given us a keen understanding of the complexity of managing the road network. Justifying investment in road safety measures in these times has become ever more challenging. With the help of these free, user-friendly tools, road safety managers can quickly build a compelling case for road safety investment. Our Solutions Managers are experts in helping to create innovative solutions to these challenges and are on hand to work with you to develop these business case propositions.”
