Traffic safety is one of the most important aspects of traffic engineering and it has always been a major concern, due to the grave consequences on human life such as injuries, death and economic loss. Equipping and standardizing road safety equipment's can prove effective in reducing the number and severity of accidents. Road side barriers are used to protect astray vehicles from colliding with rigid barriers or being thrown off a cliff. Hence cable safety barriers, as a flexible barrier can play an important role in reducing the severity of crashes.
In this research, a comparative study of the installation and implementation of cable safety barriers has been carried out. A case study in this research was part of the Haraz-Amol road and within Amol's bypass road. The Results from this research showed that the use of cable safety barrier, without considering the existing international and national standards (if any) and technical specifications of the manufacturer, can have a negative effect on safety performance of this barrier and even lead to an increase in the severity of accidents.
