• An audit done for existing road to identify safety problem developed due to the normal ‘wear and tear’ from traffic operations and also to identify hazards due to current situations .
• removing preventable accident-producing elements.
• mitigating the effects of remaining or existing problems by the inclusion of suitable crash-reducing features such as anti-skid surfacing, guard fencing, traffic control devices, and delineation etc.
• Conduct yearly
