AFRICA ROADSAFETY CORRIDORS
INITIATIVE
5 MODULES THE UNITED NATIONS’COMMITMENTallows many actors to join forces to put into practice the prevention programmes.
to stabilize and reduce the level of road tra�c fatalities in Africa, there is only one solution: unite and align e�orts acrossthe five pillars.
The New Partnership for Africa's Development (NEPAD) has identified 20 priority corridors for trade and com-merce in Africa.
Mapping of the main routes
Identification of black spots on the roads/setting up recommandations and road signs
Identification of the stakeholders
“Segmentation” of road users
Driver trainings
Awareness campaigns and trainings for other road users
Building of a driving training school in Nairobi
Setting up of wellness centers
Deployment of the road safety caravans
Self-regulation and sharing of best prac-tices between members with transport fleet
The United Nations General Assembly has described road crashes as a “major public health problem [with]... a broad range of social and economic conse-quences which, if unaddressed, may a�ect the sustai-nable development of countries and hinder progress towards the Millennium Development Goals”.Responding to this global epidemic the UN announced the UN Decade of Action for Road Safety 2011-2020. UN Secretary General Ban Ki Moon has urged all stakeholders, including business leaders, to support the implementation of the Decade.
In companies, poor levels of road safety can impact directly on employees through deaths and injuries and also on companies’ profile within the wider com-munity when the employees or branded vehicles are involved in crashes with third parties.We all have a stake in ensuring safe mobility.

Safer roads for Africa
Following the path of the Decade of Action, Total teamed up with the World Bank to improve road safety on two cross-border routes or corridors: the route between Kenya and Burundi
the Northern corridor and that between Cameroon and the Central African
Republic and Chad - the Central Africa corridor
On the strength of their complemen-tary assets, the partners are conduc-ting this project with the public authorities while mobilising the public and private sectors of each country.The “Safe way, right way” NGO has been established to take the actions linked to the project forward and a dedicated local project team is tasked with setting up these actions.“Safe way, right way” brings together expertise and best practices of each
type of partner with the objective of redu-cing the number of accidents on the corri-dors.At the heart of the project’s identity, “Safer roads for Africa” is the common slogan for all partners in this initiative. The action programme should eventually lead to a reduction in the number of serious acci-dents and victims through adoption of a modular approach covering all aspects of road safety.

Safer vehicles:
Safer roads and mobility:
Road safety management:
The project is composed of 5 modules*:
institutional framework needed to implement road safety activities,
modern road safety policies, crash/road safety monitoring
and reporting
focus on standards, entry and exit of vehicles into and from countries;
safety standards reviewed for all motor vehicles as well as related
safety equipment
Safer drivers and other road users: driver training, testing and licensing,
driving permits and enforcement of the driving code, awareness of the public,
development of a safety culture
road development, safety of all road users, pedestrians and other
vulnerable users, infrastructure development, safety audits
on site care, transport and trauma care of injuredPost-crash response:

REDUCING THE NUMBER OF ROAD TRAFFICACCIDENTS IN AFRICA

Corridors Initiative
Nearly 1.3 million people are killed on the world’s roads each year. Up to 50 million people are injured, and many remain disabled for life. Ninety percent of these casualties from road deaths occur in developing countries.
ROAD TRAFFIC INJURIES ARE ALREADY THE NUMBER ONE CAUSE OF DEATH FOR YOUNG PEOPLE WORLDWIDE. By 2015 they are forecast to be the leading health burden for children over the age of five years in developing countries.
The economic cost to developing countries is at least US$100 billion a year – and economically productive young people are most at risk. Road tra�c injuries place an immense burden on already overstretched hospitals and health systems. And unless action is taken now, annual road tra�c deaths are forecast to increase to 1.9 million people by 2020.

Working with the authorities, with the World Bank and the other institutional partners
Same involvement for each partner: decision making, contact with the team in the field
The partners share best practices, define, ratify and comply with road safety mana-gement standards as well as their partners (subcontractors, stakeholders, service providers...)
