THE COMPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS OF A HIGH RISK SITE: A CASE STUDY

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Safe transport infrastructure is one of many factors that may help reduce the likelihood of traffic accidents or the severity of their consequences. Adjustments of transport infrastructure can thus significantly contribute to reducing losses from traffic accidents. The aim of technical alterations (i.e. roads and their accessories) is not only to increase traffic flow, but also to create a self-explaining and forgiving road environment. However, some safety adjustments or alternations may instead they may create a new critical point in transport infrastructure. The aim of this paper is to present and analyze a particular high-risk site, which was created by improper modification of the current traffic area and point out the importance of the driver perception of the traffic area. For assessing how drivers perceive traffic space at this critical point, the eyetracking method was used. This paper contains the comprehensive analysis of traffic accidents that occurred in this place, in relation to their formation and consequences. Traffic-engineering analysis of the critical place was conducted as well. A comprehensive analysis of this critical location, and especially the analysis of driver perception of the traffic area confirmed the unsuitability of the technical design of a specific transport area and the necessity of its comprehensive adjustment.
