Chasing the Vision Zero
Road accidents are one of the most common causes of death globally for all age groups. International standards like iRAP to assess road infrastructures and CycleRAP to improve the safety of cycling networks are used to analyse and improve the current infrastructure to boost safety. Factual leverages these two international standards to achieve Vision Zero, which aims to remove fatalities and severe injuries from the roads and streets.
Safer roads and cycle lanes to minimise accidents
Analyse the current infrastructure
The first step to improving roads and cycle lanes is discovering their issues. Factual leverages international standards like iRAP and CycleRAP to assess road and cycle infrastructures.
Short-term immediate impact
Once the assessment is completed, a roadmap for improving the road/cycle lane network is created. Small changes can have an immediate impact.
Holistic road safety strategy
While small improvements are a start, a well-thought-out plan must be implemented for the mid- to long-term goals. This comprehensive approach aims to continually reduce crashes and progress towards the Vision Zero initiative, emphasising assessment, investment plans, and implementation.
Encourage more people to cycle
Accidents can rise as cycling rapidly grows worldwide as a means of transport for short to medium journeys. International standards like CycleRAP analyse cycle lanes to help improve safety. The safer an infrastructure is, the more people will use it.
Factual is an accredited iRAP and CycleRAP supplier worldwide
We partner with local ecosystems and policymakers to ensure the best road and cycling safety results. We’ve worked on projects in Europe, South America and the Middle East.
Our experience working on making cycling safer has led us to develop Lane Patrol, a cycling network assessment software tool that uses the cycleRAP methodology. The tool offers an app that allows the user to plan a trip and capture pictures every 10 metres. The pictures are later analysed to provide valuable insights to decision-makers and guide improvements in cyclist safety.
Road Safety Audits with iRAP
Assessing road infrastructures with iRAP can create safer transportation environments. Factual provides the deployment of the methodology, road survey development, and training.
Cycle Lane Safety Audits with Lane Patrol and CycleRAP
Factual’s road assessment software, Lane Patrol, integrates the CycleRAP methodology to reduce crashes. It helps improve safety for bicyclists and other light mobility users by boosting the use of this means of transport.
