Radar Project

Your Road Safety in on our RADAR! The RADAR project - Risk Assessment on Danube Area Roads - aims to improve the road infrastructure safety in the region, by raising capacity and enhancing transnational cooperation in the sector, for all road users. The results emerging from the improvement of road infrastructure will lead to saving lives cost-effectively throughout the Danube region and bring benefits for targeted road user groups. The 36-month long project (June 2018 – May 2021) was approved by the Interreg Danube Transnational Programme 2nd call. The Programme is co-financed by the European Regional Development Fund, the Instrument for Pre-Accession Assistance and European Neighborhood Instrument. SEE project SENSoR showed that in 14 countries in South-East Europe, mostly involved in DTP, ca 60-70% of inter-urban roads are categorized high or very high risk. This shows the urgent need to address underperforming road safety performance in the Danube region, where fatality rates are generally higher than the EU average and road infrastructure quality and safety varies hugely from country to country. RADAR helps national governments in the Danube Region to identify the obstacles, reduce the risks, develop a strategy and raise awareness on road infrastructure in the region.
