Desempenho da segurança viária na modelagem integrada do uso do solo e transporte-estudo de caso: Projeto Fortaleza 2040

Abstract

Due to its importance, it is observed that in the last years there are more and more studies considering road safety as a necessary component in the transportation planning process. This work proposes and applies a method of estimation of Road Safety Perfomance in the scenario evaluation phase of the integrated planning process. The proposed method is based on the estimation of risk factors by analysis scenario, which in-corporates the scope and the accident reduction capacity of each intervention. In the Fortaleza 2040 Project, this method was applied using the integrated Tranus modeling platform. The results indicate a reduction of 22% and 20% in the number of accidents with injured and fatal victims, respectively. There was also an increase in the number of accidents involving pedestrians, due to the increase in walking-based trips.
