Clearview launches ROI calculators for road safety schemes

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.

    Making cars safer for vulnerable road users
    Richard Cuerden considers measures to improve the safety of vulnerable road users. The competitive nature of the car market has seen an increase in protection for those travelling inside the vehicle and this is reflected in the casualty statistics -but the same does not apply to those outside the vehicle. And with current societal trends such as ageing populations, an increasing number of pedestrians and cyclists encouraged by environmental policies, this is an area that authorities such as the European Uni
