This guidance note provides a practical guide for using new data sources and analytical methods for road safety analysis in different types of projects that may impact road infrastructure or risk-related factors. This document consists of three parts. Part 1 provides an overview of existing approaches and tools for road safety assessment and identifies opportunities to improve these using new technologies such as big data and ML.
