Safety aspects of urban infrastructure : from traffic humps to integrated urban planning. Paper presented to the International Conference on Traffic and Environmental Management in Cities, Prague, Czechoslovakia, 23-24 May 1989.

Many traffic and transport problems over the last 20 years have for a large part been caused by a strong increase in the ownership and use of motor cars. The core of this problem lies with the large amount of space taken up by motorised traffic, the danger to traffic safety, the experience of traffic safety and damage to the environment. These problems are most urgent in urban areas. This report gives an overview of infrastructural measures in the Netherlands over the last 15 years.
