Abstract

This paper is mainly about traffic safety/speed limits connected to road structure and street design in urban areas. For a final decision regarding street design a lot of other things must be regarded, for instance the buildings of a town, their character and their use. However, it is my opinion that all these other things is possible to handle within the framework of The New Approach. Most used infrastructure measures in Sweden are roundabouts, raised pedestrian and cycle crossings, humps, chicanes connected to broad median islands and reduction of road width byd pavement extension.
