Abstract

Highlights lessons learned and experiences gained from 10 government funded projects demonstrating the road safety of mixed priority routes. A brief definition of mixed priority routes (MPRs) is given, followed by details of the projects themselves, including the benefits and monitoring of performance such as safety, environment, accessibility and economics. Also looks at budgetary requirements and sources of funding, packaging proposals and timescales and delays. Other chapters examine the team composition for a project, the consultation process, design factors and implementation. Scheme evaluation looks at what to measure and when.
