Abstract

Maintenance and operations guidelines are an essential element of a road management concept, since the state of the art and the operational status of safety equipment and personnel are the key determinants for the achievable level of Infrastructure Road Safety (IRS). The main components of IRS for the roadside and median areas include the recovery and safety zones, road restraint systems, passive safety equipped support structures, road marking, and traffic signs. The information is presented as a template for future users. There are national and regional issues that arise when it comes to the implementation of European norms or guidelines into the member states. This document should be considered as a starting point for national policies that must be adapted to the local geographical, economic, and demographic conditions. (Author/publisher)
