Safe Roads Road Safety: Everyone’s responsibility 4 June 2019, Lisbon, Portugal This event is born from the collaboration between public and private organizations of Portugal and the European Road Safety Charter Team The European Road Safety Charter, led by the European Commission, is the largest civil society platform on road safety. To date, more than 3.500 public and private entities have committed to the Charter and carried out road safety actions and initiatives targeted at their members, employees and the rest of civil society. These actions have strengthened road safety culture across Europe, improved common knowledge about the causes of accidents and helped to create preventative measures and solutions. The Charter’s diverse community of members is made up of companies, associations, local authorities, research institutions, universities and schools. All committed entitles are given genuine recognition and their actions are made visible on our site, enabling others to learn and become inspired. Specifically, the Charter aims to: • Encourage and support European associations, schools, universities, companies of all types and sizes, and local authorities to take actions for road safety in Europe. • Acknowledge contributions by civil society to road safety. • Facilitate civil society members in acquiring and sharing knowledge on road safety issues in the European Union. • Facilitate true dialogue for the transfer of road safety experiences and practices at all levels of governance in the European Union. This event aims to become, over the years, a "Good Practice" within this European framework of cooperation and exchange on the subject of education and road safety.

Health and Environment in Europe: Progress Assessment
Health and Environment in Europe: Progress Assessment ABSTRACT This report describes the progress made by the WHO European Member States in improving their health and the environment situation over the last 20 years. The assessment focuses on the aspects of health related to clean water and air, to environments supporting safe mobility and physical activity, chemical safety, noise and safety at work. These are the environment and health issues arising from the four regional priority goals of the Children’s Environment and Health Action Plan for Europe (CEHAPE), agreed at the Fourth Ministerial Conference on Environment and Health in 2004. The information collected by the European Environment and Health Information System forms the basis for the analysis. The report also presents the public governance and healthy public policy aspects of national policies on environment and health. The implementation of the CEHAPE in countries, its impact and challenges related to it are summarized using the information collected through the web-based survey on CEHAPE conducted in November 2009.

Urban Traffic Accidents: the Case of Montijo
Urban traffic accidents: the case of Montijo Mariana Fragoso de Rhodes Baião Abstract: Portugal has shown a very positive evolution in reducing road traffic accident fatalities in the past decade. Hence, it is necessary to address the issue of road crashes in a smaller scale, in the municipal level, reducing the number of severe and light injuries as well. Thus, this study analyses the patterns of road traffic accidents in a Portuguese municipality: Montijo. A literature review of the state-of-the-art approaches in black spot analysis was performed and in correspondent counteractive measures as well. The road crash data collected for Montijo was analysed and a black spot detection methodology was applied, based on the currently used severity indicator and on a suggested indicator, calculated through accident costs. As a result, 11 black spots were identified. Several counteractive measures were proposed, within the traffic calming methodology, aiming to prevent the occurrence of severe and light injuries by reducing traffic speed and control traffic flows. Keywords: Black spots, road traffic accidents, severity indicator, traffic calming, urban traffic accidents. 1. INTRODUCTION The roadway environment is formed by the interaction between three factors: the road, the vehicle and the human element (Macedo, 1999). This paper aims to study the first factor, the road, in order to detect fragilities and propose possible solutions, within Road Safety Engineering. An accident occurs when a driver is unable to meet the challenges presented by the roadway system (Geurts and Wets, 2003). In fact, the link between the driver and the road is the most crucial part of the road environment, and were it is most urgent to take action in reducing risks.

Mário Lino at the III INTERPARLIAMENTARY CONFERENCE IN LISBON A EUROPEAN POLICY FOR ROAD SAFETY: HARMONISATION OF CONCEPTS AND PRINCIPLES Lisbon, 29 September 2008 (the version as read shall be valid) Mr President of the Permanent Commission for Public Works, Transport and Communications of the Portuguese Assembly of the Republic, Mr Vice-President of the European Parliamentary Commission for Transport, Mr President of the Conference, Congresswomen and Congressmen, First of all, I would like to extend a warm welcome to all Members of the Portuguese Assembly of the Republic and also of the Parliaments of the other member states, who are present here at the III Interparliamentary Conference on Road Safety in Europe, and I would also like to congratulate the Permanent Commission for Public Works, Transport and Communications of the Portuguese Assembly of the Republic, for the initiative shown in promoting this Conference. I would also like to express my most sincere satisfaction in taking part in this Conference of Lisbon, which addresses an issue which is very important and current - 1 / 8 MINISTRY FOR PUBLIC WORKS, TRANSPORT AND COMMUNICATIONS Minister’s Office Road Safety - to which the Portuguese Government in general, and my Ministry in particular, have dedicated their utmost attention. As you well know, in the White Paper of 12 September 2001, “European Transport Policy for 2010: Time to Decide”, the European Commission established the target of reducing, by 2010, the number of deaths on Community roads by 50 %.

Interparliamentary Conference at Lisbon
INTERPARLIAMENTARY CONFERENCE AT LISBON A European Policy for Road Safety Lisbon, 29 & 30 September 2008 Miguel Frasquilho President of the Commission for Transport, Tourism and Communications My fellow Members of Parliament, Dear Guests, Ladies and Gentlemen, Today, we shall be discussing Road Safety in Europe. The figures released by the United Nations do not leave a shadow of doubt: road accidents are the most important cause of death among people aged under 25. Throughout the world, some 400 thousand young people die in accidents on the roads, while millions more are maimed or wounded. Therefore, there can be no doubt that this is an area of fundamental importance, and which has warrants growing attention within Europe. Well-known is the target, set back in 2001, of saving 25 thousand lives by 2010, achieving this through the reduction of the number of fatalities caused by road accidents to 29 thousand in the above mentioned year. This is, indeed, an ambitious goal, that would represent the halving of the number of road deaths in 9 years. According to the most recent data, for this goal to be achieved this would require even greater effort from Europe as a whole, as between 2001 and 2007 the number of deaths on the roads of the European Union decreased by only 21 %, a far cry from the 50 % reduction sought by 2010. However, significant advances have indeed been made: the situation we face today has little in common with the situation of 20, or even 10, years ago when we consider road safety. This means that we have already reversed the trend, but of course there is still a lot to be done.

World Report on Road Traffic Injury Prevention
World World report on road traffic injury prevention Our roads, which are meant to take us places, often become venues of loss and sources of sorrow. Friends for Life, India, appreciates and supports the initiative WHO is taking to make the world a safer, more responsible place in which to live. Anish Verghese Koshy, President, Friends for Life, Bangalore, India We, the surviving relatives of the victims of road accidents, appreciate the initiative of WHO and the publication of this report. It is wrong to place the responsibility for causing and preventing road crashes on the driver only; we need to look at the vehicle and the road as well. World report Ben-Zion Kryger, Chairman, Yad-Haniktafim, Israel There are not many roads, there is a single road that extends across the length and breadth of our vast on road traffic planet. Each of us is responsible for a segment of that road. The road safety decisions that we make or do not make, ultimately have the power to affect the lives of people everywhere. We are one road – one world. Rochelle Sobel, President, Association for Safe International Road Travel, United States of America injury prevention The human suffering for victims and their families of road traffic–related injuries is incalculable. There are endless repercussions: families break up; high counselling costs for the bereaved relatives; no income for a family if a breadwinner is lost; and thousands of rands to care for injured and paralysed people. Drive Alive greatly welcomes this report and strongly supports its recommendations. Moira Winslow, Chairman, Drive Alive, South Africa WHO has decided to tackle the root causes of road accidents, a global scourge characteristic of our technological era, whose list of victims insidiously grows longer day by day.
