Clearview launches ROI calculators for road safety schemes

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 quantifying the number of lives saved and injuries prevented.

8795 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 quantifying the number of lives saved and injuries prevented.

Designed for both SolarLite Active Road Stud installations and for combination road safety solutions, the tools use the official costs of accidents from the Department for Transport (DfT) associated with the value of preventing road casualties which are then offset against the 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 is also considered.

    Road crashes are not as random as they may appear and analysing data can reveal patterns that can help various authorities target their resources more accurately. David Crawford reports. Figures from the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) show that in 2013 there were 32,719 people killed on American roads and 2.31 million injured. While these form part of an overall 25% drop over the decade from 2004, US Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx continues to stress that reaching the procl

  • Canadian authorities convinced of enforcement safety benefits
    November 28, 2012
    Cost-benefit analysis invariably finds highly in favour of speed and red light enforcement, particularly so in Edmonton in the Alberta province of Canada, where authorities need no convincing of the merits of road safety engineering. Justification of enforcement efforts on economic grounds has been reinforced this year, by a study of the costs and benefits of red light enforcement. New York-based economic research firm John Dunham & Associates carried out this latest analysis for American Traffic Solutions
