| Summary | The 36th Project for the Improvement of Accident-Prone Road Sections in the Taiwan Area was carried out as a work item of the 12th Road Traffic Order and Traffic Safety Improvement Program approved by the Executive Yuan in 2016 (project number: Jiao-Yun 31101). In this project, the Institute of Transportation (IOT) analyzed statistical data of road traffic accidents (Categories A1 and A2) in the Taiwan Area from 2017 to identify accident-prone locations. It then sent a report to the contact windows/supervisory departments for road safety in every county and city, and compiled the accident-prone locations as they were reported back to IOT by those counterparts, based on their on-paper assessments or on-site investigations, as input for the improvement plan. The Project for the Improvement of Accident-Prone Road Sections improved 61 locations, with a total expenditure of TWD 12.66 million and an average improvement cost of TWD 207,000 per location. |
