Evaluation of Access on Highway Accidents (Case Study: Isfahan Province)

The evaluation of statistics related to accidents in different countries has revealed that inappropriate accessible areas and the construction of unsystematic accessible areas is the cause of many accidents in the country roads. As the statistics reveal, about 37 percent of suburban accidents in our country have occurred in leveled crossings that the maximum number of accidents occur in the roads. The lack of appropriate rules, instructions, and criteria for the design and construction of marginal accessible areas in the country on the one hand and the lack of appropriate principles for the management and control of accessible areas on the other hand has caused various applications to create so many accessibilities to the main roads. This would consequently put in danger the security of movement in the roads. The aim of the present research study is to evaluate the factors influencing suburban accidents in Tiran-Daran road in Isfahan province. The aim of the performance of this project is to recognize the traffic design, accessible areas, enhancement of their security and then to rate them based on their influence on the probable occurrence of the accidents.
