Measuring the value of community road safety in the safe system framework

The safe system approach to road safety has renewed the focus on the need for an informed and engaged community to contribute to the adoption and application of effective road safety strategies. Community road safety programs play an important role in generating the community support, partnerships and engagement in road safety that is recognised as an integral role in achieving a safe system. However traditional evaluation efforts, which have focused primarily on delivery and processes, do not provide a complete picture of the contribution of community road safety programs in this new framework. It is timely to explore new areas of evaluation measurement, such as social capital, which can make an additional contribution to the evaluation picture for community road safety.
