Through a computer analysis of the 1999 accident data in Taiwan area provided by the Information Center, MOTC, the study identified the accident-prone locations throughout the Taiwan area. To have a better understanding about those locations, field study teams were arranged. The team members include the officers from the Road Traffic Safety Commission, the IOT, the Highway Bureau, and the transportation bureau, police and engineering offices of local governments. After thorough discussions with the team members, the IOT has proposed an improvement plan for each accident-prone location. This year, totally 181 accident-prone locations have been identified. The total cost to improve those locations is NT49,405,244 and the average cost for each location is approximately NT270,000. |
