Forwarded by John Parkin on behalf of the Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers: Municipal Engineer
Dear Colleague,
You are warmly invited to propose a paper for the themed issue of Municipal Engineer on road safety. Please submit<http://comms.icepublishing.com/In/109546241/0/UqE6ls2XOms4LX309eVBOQ0kfwwj64l84BLdDPXGoSX/> a 200-word outline of the article you would like to write by 25th April 2016.<http://comms.icepublishing.com/In/109546242/0/UqE6ls2XOms4LX309eVBOQ0kfwwj64l84BLdDPXGoSX/>
Central government is trying to balance the public finances. Broadly, the plan appears to be to protect health spending and focus more significant reduction in other areas.
Given that road safety expenditure on prevention is more cost effective than dealing with the victims of road traffic collisions, is this policy short-sighted and will it lead to increased costs and unnecessary human suffering?
For this themed issue, Municipal Engineer would like to invite academics and practitioners to share their work to help inform the industry and prompt a policy debate in this important area.
