In this paper attention is given to the traffic safety aspect in fixing priorities for State Road projects. Since 1983 the important role of this aspect has been laid down in a set of values chosen by the Minister of Transport and Public Works. The traffic safety aspect is worked out by means of calculation of the effect a project has on traffic safety. The effect of a project is the difference between the situation in which the project will have been realized and the situation in which this is not the case.
