Practical Road Safety Auditing - 2nd Edition (2008)
The first edition of 'Practical Road Safety Auditing' was published in 2001. Since that time, a number of
changes have taken place in the world of Road Safety Audit.
The 2008 (second) edition of this book attempts to bring the changes together in a format that the Road Safety Auditor
can use at a practical level. The book contains many examples of real road safety problems backed up by accident statistics, together with examples of successful solutions, again backed up by comprehensive evidence.
The book has been written by practising Safety Auditors, who between them have carried out over 2,500 audits. The aim of the book will be to teach and to inform -
a guide for those commissioning Road Safety Audits, those carrying out Road Safety Audits and for those whose schemes are being audited.
To obtain a copy of the NEW version of 'Practical Road Safety Auditing' please contact the publishers, Thomas Telford Ltd directly.
Please note that you can no longer obtain a copy of this book from TMS Consultancy.
