Can a robust roads network go hand in hand with Sustainable Safety? : report of a pilot study. The Royal Dutch Touring Club ANWB's vision of a 'robust roads network', developed in cooperation with the Netherlands Organization for Applied Scientific Research TNO, is intended to provide a solution for the increasing vulnerability of the present road network for disturbances in the traffic flow. However, the vision does not yet elucidate on the safety effects of such a road network. Together with ANWB, SWOV therefore carried out an exploratory study. The Dutch traffic and transport consultants Goudappel Coffeng performed the model calculations for this study.
