Concluding the three and a half years of joint efforts in road safety methodologies, policy, and practice integration, our fellow project – Risk Assessment on Danube Area Roads (RADAR) – is coming to an end. The project will celebrate its stories of success at the final conference on September 23, 2021. The conference is planned as a free-of-charge hybrid event, taking place in Slovenia and online. 

RADAR project will organize a final conference under the aegis of the Slovenian Presidency of the Council of the EU and in cooperation with the European Strategy for Danube Region (EUSDR) – PA1b: To improve mobility and multimodality – Road, Rail and Air Links. 

The conference titled ‘Striving for Safer Infrastructure for All Road Users in Danube Area’ will bring together road safety stakeholders to highlight the project’s results and demonstrate the benefits of a systematic approach to safer road infrastructure. It will contribute to the debate of prioritization of road safety investments and network-wide road safety assessments under revised RISM (Road Infrastructure Safety Management) directive and broader. In addition, the conference will underline the need to work towards the implementation of both the United Nations and European Commission goals on road safety.

By supporting the end of an era, we are inviting you to join the final event of project RADAR. After all, the SABRINA project builds on the results RADAR has provided during its seamless path towards road safety, by contributing to a safer transport network and safe transport mobility, as well as safe accessibility and mobility in (urban and) rural areas. Both projects aim at raising the capacities of relevant national, regional, and local stakeholders to build and improve infrastructure in a safe and sustainable way. 

Although the SABRINA project's primary focus lies in improving road infrastructure safety for cyclists as one of the most vulnerable road users, the project also found synergy with RADAR within the joint conference on October 15, 2020, and some other joint actions, like the #CommitToAct campaign. The lead partner of both projects is the European Institute of Road Assessment – EuroRAP from Slovenia. Besides, both projects have some common project partners: Faculty of Transport and Traffic Sciences, University of Zagreb; Austrian Road Safety Board; and Automobile Club of Moldova.
