The UK government recognizes the public health crisis and develop­ ment burden that road crashes present on a global scale. To support the global effort on road safety, DFID allocates resources to the GRSF to achieve significant, measurable, and sustainable results in developing countries. Bloomberg Philanthropies works to ensure better, longer lives for the greatest number of people. They focus on five key areas for creating lasting change; the arts, education, the environment, public health, and government innovation. These areas encompass the issues former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg and his team are most passionate about and where they can achieve the greatest good. In this light, Bloomberg became the larg­ est single road safety donor in the world. GRSF has worked with Bloomberg on designing effective road safety programs across countries and cities, while leveraging hundreds of millions of dollars in new road safety investment. The FIA Foundation has an international reputation for innovative global road safety philan­ thropy; practical environmental research and interventions to improve air quality and tackle climate change; and high impact strategic advocacy in the areas of road traffic injury pre­ vention and motor vehicle fuel efficiency. The FIA Foundation represents the Global Road Safety Facility’s longest standing donor. An incoming donor, CITA, the International Motor Vehicle Inspection Committee, is a world­ wide non-profit association involved in whole-life road vehicle compliance as one of the instruments to improve road safety and to reduce the environmental impact of road trans­ port. Members of CITA are both public and private organizations from around the world, taking care of vehicle roadworthiness. CITA is recognized by the UNECE and the European Commission for the development of vehicle safety and environmental protection standards. The World Bank contributed to the GRSF in FY 17 with funding from its road safety Global Engagement Budget. 2 GRSF Annual Report 2017 OUR PARTNERS The GRSF partners with the multi-lateral learning platforms, as well as financing to development banks, nongovernmental ensure a maximum impact on improving organizations (NGOs), and academia to road safety for all users. leverage technical expertise, advocacy and World Health Organization Multi-lateral Development Banks: African and Development, European Investment Development Bank, Asian Development Bank, Inter-American Development Bank, Bank, CAF – The Development Bank of Latin and the Islamic Development Bank America, European Bank for Reconstruction GRSF Annual Report 2017 3 FOREWORD I am pleased to pres­ the Nepal Road Safety Council was estab­ ent the 2017 Annual lished in November 2017 under the lead­ Report of the Glob­ ership of the Ministry of Physical Infrastruc­ al Road Safety Facil­ ture and Transport.

From the official Press Release it was noted that: “The World Bank is very pleased that the GRSF has been recognized for help­ing low and middle income countries improve their road safety management practices,” said José Luis Irigoyen, World Bank Senior Director for Transport and ICT. A long-standing promoter of road safety issues, HRH Prince Michael established this Award scheme 30 years ago; first as a national road safety award and then internationalized in 2001. The U.K. International Development Secretary Penny Mordaunt said: “I’m delighted and proud that DFID has funded pioneering research on road safety which has been acknowl- edged through the award of this prize. Road crashes are the biggest killer of young adults globally and 90% of these deaths are in low and middle income countries even though these countries have less than half the World’s vehicles. Road deaths impact on some of the poorest communities the hardest. As part of our leave no one behind agenda it is therefore all the more important that DFID continues to pave the way on important issues like road safety”.

Under the GRSF Multi-Donor Trust Fund, the GRSF held a Call for Proposals focused on re­ ceiving applications covering Transport and ICT, Health, and Urban road safety. The GRSF–Bloomberg Initiative for Global Road Safety (BIGRS) continued to see strong outputs in city-level road safety interventions, training and analysis. All highlights are pre­ sented below. MULTI-DONOR TRUST FUND ACTIVITIES ƒƒ FUNDING TO GLOBAL PARTNERS CAF GRSF is teaming with CAF, the Latin-American development bank, to work in Bolivia and assess national and city-level road safety plans to create more effective interventions in line with the SDG targets on road safety. Work will continue in FY 18.

Work has commenced and will be concluded in FY 18. EBRD The GRSF has agreed to fund the EBRD to conduct an analysis and create a toolkit to be shared among the Multi-lateral Development Banks (MDBs) on occupational safety practic­ es for vehicle fleets. Work will commence in FY 18. 12 GRSF Annual Report 2017 iRAP China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) started while countries across Central Asia, such as Kazakhstan, began expanding their highway network a number of years ago. In anticipation of increased traffic volumes through expansion and the forthcoming linkage to the BRI, the GRSF supported an iRAP assessments on the strategic Center-South Highway in Kazakh­ stan. A similar process is now ongoing in Vietnam where an iRAP assessment will be used to support the improvement of a major corridor connecting Cambodia and a port on the South China Sea. NGO Global Alliance The GRSF was a main sponsor of the Fifth Global Meeting of NGOs advocating for road safety and road victims, held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia in April 2017. More than 200 road safety NGOs and stakeholders from more than 70 countries attended. The GRSF provided training to the NGOs on road safety advocacy as well as how to work with development banks. Post-Crash Care Training GRSF has awarded a grant to the Norwegian Institute of Public Health (for FY 18) to support a scientific fellowship in Malawi in collaboration with the Public Health Institute of Malawi (PHIM) in Lilongwe to train staff and build capacity through collecting alcohol data to im­ prove road safety in the country. FIA High-Level Panel The GRSF participated in a high level mission with the FIA High Level Panel (chaired by Jean Todt, the UN Special Envoy for Road Safety) to Myanmar to conduct a road safety man­ agement assessment. The resulting report was delivered by Mr. Todt to the government of Myanmar, containing a series of recommendations to scale up road safety in the country. WHO Save Lives Package GRSF agreed in FY 17 to fund WHO to carry out activities in coordination with the World Bank (to commence in FY 18) in three African countries focusing on post-crash care, train­ ing and legislation. 13 GRSF Annual Report 2017 13 ƒƒ WORLD BANK PARTNERSHIP In FY 17, the GRSF managed a portfolio of 28 grants in partnership with World Bank lending operations. These grants spanned 33 countries either through bilateral or regional engage­ ments and all included research and development (R&D) activities. Enhancing Products through Research and Development Brazil, Mexico, Mozambique, and Peru One of the major aims of the R&D activities of the GRSF is to drive down the cost of iRAP surveys. This effort is being supported by a partnership in Mozambique and Brazil where a web-based imagery platform, Mapillary, is being used to supplement the traditional iRAP surveying approach. Additional R&D activities related to iRAP include the development of a web-based application for assessing design, which will improve consistency and effi­ ciency of desk reviews. Research is also ongoing in Mexico and Peru to enhance aspects of non-motorized transport users and potential safety countermeasures in the iRAP model where the concept of “Level of Traffic Stress” for cyclists when planning and designing bicy­ cle facilities is being explored. Another major initiative of the GRSF in this year, was to sup­ port the improvement of the Bank’s open-source road crash data management platform DRIVER (Data for Road Incident Visualization, Evaluation, and Reporting). The system, which was originally piloted in the Philippines and is now gaining interest in more than ten other countries worldwide, was developed to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of crash data collection, analysis, and reporting. Urban Mobility Bangladesh, Kenya A Bank team in Bangladesh is leveraging the Bank’s DRIVER platform and lessons learned from other countries to help improve data collection to inform the planning and design of pe­destrian infrastructure in Dhaka. Similarly, GRSF continues to support more established risk identification techniques in Ken­ ya where the Facility is funding a road safety inspection of the main east-west arterial and a road safety audit of the first line of a bus rapid transit (BRT) system in Nairobi. Inter-Urban and Rural Cameroon, Chad, Central African Republic, India, Liberia, and Nepal In Nepal, one of the key achievements under the World Bank Road Sector Development Project has been the strategic focus on investing for road safety using project funds as well as securing co-financing through grants funded by bi-lateral donors. Using the GRSF, DFID funded a US$7.4 million grant to support the road safety engineering works as well as build institutional capacity to implement the National Road Safety Action plan. Using the existing 14 GRSF Annual Report 2017 project operation on the road sector as the platform, this project is one of the largest stand-alone road safety grant from the GRSF to a single country that has focused on improving road safety outcomes through multi-sectorial inter­ ventions. One of the development ob­ jectives of the grant was to implement engineering treatments to reduce the risk of road departure crashes along the dangerous hilly sections. With renewed push from the government the project completed the installation of the crash barriers covering 700 km of road net­ Soames Job discusses Infrastructure Safety in Nepal work. Beyond safe­ ty engineering im­ provements, the Nepal DFID grant has helped the government to realize that invest­ ments in road safety operations should serve as a leverage to influ­ence and drive policy and regula­tory reforms as was truly the case in this project. As an example within months of the completion of the grant project, the National Road Safety Council was established as a direct outcome of the advoca­ cy supported through the project and held its first inter-departmen­tal meeting under the chairmanship of Secretary, Ministry of Physical Infrastructure and Transport. This demonstrates an impressive owner­ ship and accountability that is expected of the transport ministry to lead the way. It has been encouraging to note the changing narrative from the government on how to prioritize their investment to not only improve connectivity but also integrate safety at the same time. In this regard the Government of Nepal is keen on further support from the GRSF to work specifically in the area of road safety and integrate it as part of its overall transport sector development. In Liberia, a substantial iRAP evaluation of the national road network is ongoing. In addition to infrastructure issues, Bank lending operations addressing strategic corridors such as one connecting Cameroon, Chad, and the Central African Republic leveraged the GRSF to build relationships between the governments, private sector, and NGOs to inform safety policies eas, like India’s Bihar State, the GRSF is assisting and needs while facilitating trade.

This effort includes establishing a ru­ ral road safety inspection guideline and building capacity for rural road engineering, which will ultimately be leveraged to improve infrastructure through a Bank lending operation. GRSF Annual Report 2017 15 Health and Human Behavior India, Tanzania An App is being developed in India to support the testing of a road safety mass media campaign and motorcycle helmet use. In Tanzania, the GRSF is engaged in work­ ing across eight cities to build capacity around preparing behavior change and education campaigns in an attempt to inform road user behavior, in coordination with the local World Bank team. Speed Management Nigeria, Ukraine In the Ukraine, the Facility funded legislative drafts and the upstream work related to the establishment of an automated speed enforcement system. The team working there also linked this activity with the creation of a road fund, which will provide fiscal sustainability to the system. At the urban-level, the GRSF supported a speed management strategy for the Lagos BRT extension. Road Safety Management and Capacity Building Georgia, India, Kenya, Mali, Moldova, Nepal, Nigeria, Paraguay, Romania, ten Pacific Island countries, and Uganda In Mali, the GRSF is supporting the establishment of a ten-year road safety strategy and action plan. In Uganda, the GRSF is working with a Bank task team and NGOs to address all pillars of the UN’s Decade of Action for Road Safety. The holistic program includes es­ tablishing a national road safety authority, supporting the National Road Safety Policy and Strategic Action Plan, developing a five-year action plan to guide the new agency, strength­ ening en­ forcement of relevant laws and regulations, as well as conducting road safety au­ dits along a strategic corridor in the country. In Georgia, the GRSF is also supporting the establishment of the National Road Safety Sec­ retariat that will focus on the first task of establishing guidelines for the identification and development of a black spot improvement program. Similarly, the Facility is working in Moldova to re-start the National Road Safety Council with specific aims of identifying the most feasible and sustainable institutional arrangements and financing options, which were major impediments in the past. In Romania, greater focus is being placed on treatment of hazardous areas on the road network, which resulted in the GRSF supporting an infrastruc­ ture management capacity review and revising the road safety strategy and action plan that is now being leveraged to mobilize Bank or EU financing. As middle-income countries like Paraguay attempt to elevate their road safety manage­ ment to another level, the GRSF is assisting in the establishment of a national driver license registry and evaluation system, promoting inter-agency coordination, developing road safety education programs, and enhancing the monitoring and evaluation of road safety performance through the National Road Safety Observatory. 16 16 GRSF Annual Report 2017 The conveying strength of the Bank continued to be used in countries like India where the GRSF helped to facilitate the National Workshop on Road Safety that brought together top officials from the central government and representatives of eleven states. The workshop highlighted the urgent need to place focus on safety as the burden of road traffic injuries grows in the country and included thematic sessions on all pillars of the Safe System approach The GRSF also supported the Bank to assemble ten Pacific Island countries to leverage economies of scale around evaluating road safety capacity and determining priorities. The Bank agreed to continue working with the countries on a bilateral level to address road safety through lending operations. Looking towards the future of road safety engineering, the GRSF funded an activity in Ne­ pal to help establish a bachelor and master level road safety curriculum that is now being administered by one of the leading academic institutions in the country. In countries where a lead agency is already established, the GRSF is working at the sub-na­ tional level like in India’s Rajasthan State to take stock of the road safety management ca­ pacity and to evaluate trainings, data agreements, policies, and fiscal needs. Engagement and capacity building support to municipal agencies like the Nairobi Metropolitan Area Transport Authority and the Lagos Metropolitan Area Transit Authority, which is aiming to develop a core group of road safety specialists with a particular emphasis on road safety audit, is ongoing. As cities continue to grow, the GRSF is placing greater attention on this layer of government. BLOOMBERG INITIATIVE FOR GLOBAL ROAD SAFETY ACTIVITIES The GRSF continued its engagement as one of the key partners of the BIGRS (2015-2019) in FY 17. The full scope of activities was expanded to the ten cities involved in the initiative (Accra, Addis Ababa, Bandung, Bangkok, Bogota, Ho Chi Minh City, Fortaleza, Mumbai, Sao Paulo, and Shanghai) and five countries (China, India, Philippines, Tanzania, and Thailand) to build road safety management capacity, deliver training, support the implementation of infrastructure safety interventions, provide policy level support, and conduct analysis of the GRSF Annual Report 2017 17 Bloomberg Partners’ Meeting in Mumbai, June 7-9, 2017 socio-economic cost of injuries in the five countries. In addition, the GRSF worked to posi­ tion speed as a key factor affecting the safety of roads by engaging in policy support and le­ veraging the Facility’s partnership with iRAP, to underscore the crucial relationship between speed and safety, to demonstrate the need to go beyond enforcement and education, and to manage speed through infrastructure with special emphasis on vulnerable road users. Finally, the GRSF started fielding requests to support capacity building, adaptation, and operationalization of the Bank’s open-source, web-based road crash data management platform DRIVER in seven of the cities and two of the countries. Two and a half years into the initiative, the team built on the strong relationships with local municipal-and national-level partners, NGOs, and academia to scale up activities. By mid- 2017, iRAP evaluations completed totaled 7,152 km of high-risk roads across the ten cities and five countries. The project continues to submit design recommendations to leverage government investments and the potential for the reduction of fatalities and serious injuries compared to prioritized road sections. City Level Accra, Addis Ababa, Bandung, Bangkok, Bogota, Fortaleza, Ho Chi Minh City, Mumbai, Sao Paulo, and Shanghai The GRSF focused on an expansion of iRAP assessments to more than 600 km of roads completed or planned in 2017 in Accra and Addis Ababa. Similarly, in Asia, the Bank in­ creased iRAP assessments to between 100 and 200 km in each of the Asian cities – work focused on networks that accounted for a significant portion of reported road crash fatali­ ties and serious injuries in the previous three years and areas with substantial percentages of vulnerable road users, such as school zones in Ho Chi Minh City. In South America, there 18 GRSF Annual Report 2017 was also an uptick in requests for iRAP assessments and establishment of potential for long- term use with the Secretariat of Mobility in Bogota now considering policy to mandate iRAP as the standard tool for safety evaluation of the city’s road network. Country Level China, India, Philippines, Tanzania, and Thailand The Facility continued to manage assessments in initiative countries, including through sev­ en World Bank lending operations in China with two more identified by mid-2017. The National High­ way Authority of India engaged the Bank for an iRAP assessment and design support on two of the four legs of the Golden Quadrilateral for a total length of around 5,000 km. In the Philippines, the Bank and iRAP team completed a major post-construction assessment and continued design support resulting in the inclusion of safety interventions in 1,043 km of previously assessed roads. Tanzania’s work gained momentum in the first half of 2017 with assessments completed on significant portions of the current and planned Bus Rap­ id Transit system. In Thailand, the team turned their attention to an initiative with the Thai Department of Highways to commence work on the “Building ThaiRAP Phase I”, which will initially focus on establishing a domestically adapted version of iRAP. Capacity Building Capacity building events continued throughout the first half of 2017 with the development of three iRAP courses related to analytical, management, and policy needs. A half-day work­ shop on DRIVER and a weeklong workshop on the fundamentals of road safety planning and engineering were also developed during the fiscal year. Studies on improving the Road Traffic Safety Law and operationalizing the ISO 39001 standard in China were nearly completed by the end of the fiscal year. Finally, the GRSF completed a flagship study on the evaluation of the economic impact of road traffic injuries (RTIs), which highlights the long term effects of sustained reduction of RTIs on national income growth. GRSF Annual Report 2017 19 FY 2017 EVENT HIGHLIGHTS WHO MEETING ON GLOBAL VOLUNTARY TARGETS ON ROAD SAFETY GENEVA, SEPTEMBER 2, 2016 GRSF participated in this strategic meeting to develop voluntary targets on road safety by UN member states and adopted as directed by the World Health Assembly. The objective of the meeting was to formalize a WHO discussion paper and to prepare an initial list of road safety indicators and targets under the SDG framework under each individual pillar on road safety.

BLOOMBERG WORKSHOP ON URBAN ROAD SAFETY MODEL DEVELOPMENT NEW YORK CITY, MAY 17-19, 2017 A workshop was held in New York City to consult with partners on ways to improve the urban application of the iRAP methodology. The workshop, led by iRAP and World Bank/ GRSF, had attendance from BIGRS Embedded Staff (Sao Paulo), WRI, NACTO, KiwiRAP, and CycleRAP (ANWB, SWOV, Province of Friesland in the Netherlands). The group agreed that the use of Star Ratings and Investment Plans are currently applied in urban areas and do help provide a measure of infrastructure safety and the likely investment returns of poten­ tial treatments. The assessments are guiding investment in proven treatments like speed management, pedestrian provision and intersection upgrades. INTERNATIONAL TRANSPORT FORUM (ITF) MEETING LEIPZIG, MAY 31- JUNE 2, 2017 At the ITF Forum, the World Bank (as host of GRSF), the FIA (in association with the High Lev­ el Panel for Road Safety), and the OECD/ITF signed an MOU to work jointly on the creation of road safety regional observatories. The observatories, based on the GRSF-supported Latin American and Caribbean Road Safety Observatory, will serve as vital cogs for country data gathering, analysis, legislation information, capacity building and coordination. BLOOMBERG PARTNERS MEETING MUMBAI, JUNE 4-11, 2017 GRSF personnel played active roles contributing to our reputation for expert engagement in road safety during the following events: GRSF Annual Report 2017 23 Site inspection by the Bloomberg team in Mumbai, Panel discussion at the Bloombeg Parners’ Event, June 9, 2017 June 7-9, 2017 India Vision Zero conference: GRSF presented an invited address on “The Safe Systems Approach to Road Safety” and participated in a workshop. These events contribute to in­ creased understanding of road safety, increased appreciation of what needs to be done, the need for a sound evidence base for decisions including the need for better crash data, and of what can be done with limited resources in India. GRSF/GRSP partnership meeting: The meeting resulted in the revision of the Enforce­ ment Guide which would create a guide for Road Policing in LMICs; and the development of a tolls for assessment of readiness of a country for automated enforcement technology. BIGRS technical meeting: The three-day technical meeting brought together the BIGRS partners and the city agen­cies for stocktaking on the progress achieved under BIGRS (2015- 2019) and the next steps. A key aspect of this meeting was to show the comparative perfor­ mance of the program in terms of what has been achieved and further provide diagnostics on the key risk factors as applicable along with intermediate indicators as achieved in the first half of the five year program. Media Round Table hosted by GRSP: GRSF advocated for the passage of the major piece tional Parliament which will substantially amend and of legislation currently before the Na­ augment current road law, including improved delivery of infrastructure for safety. Introduction to the DRIVER crash data platform: An overview presentation on the DRIV­ ER platform was made to the road safety surveillance group in the partnership. The presen­ tation generated lots of interest in terms of adapting the platform in the individual cities. CITA GENERAL ASSEMBLY MEETING ZAGREB, JUNE 9, 2017 The GRSF addressed the General Assembly of CITA, regarding working with GRSF and the World Bank. In particular, the focus was on how to scale up in-country safety and emissions inspections in the developing world, a critical emerging area that is relatively underrepre­ sented to date. The result of the meetings included GRSF and CITA agreeing to fund work in sub-Saharan Africa for pilot studies to increase government technical ownership of vehi­ cles inspections, as well as CITA’s Board deciding to become a donor to GRSF. 24 GRSF Annual Report 2017 GRSF AND WORLD BANK COLLABORATION IN FY 2017 The GRSF and the World Bank’s Road Safety Global Solutions Group (GSG) work closely to scale up the transfer of leading road safety knowledge within the Bank’s regional project teams as well as reciprocal information to the GRSF in terms of lessons learned. Transport safety is one of the four key pillars of the Sustainable Mobility for All (SuM4All) Initiative, and road safety is the statistically dominant issue within transport safety, with the vast majority of transport related deaths and injuries. A broad body of work is required to develop road safety to more effectively align and capture co-benefits with the other pillars of the SuM4All, and to increase our focus on road safety delivery in Bank-financed projects. The Bank funded deliverables and outcomes in the partnership with the GRSF towards this end were: ƒƒ Development of a new Guideline for Road Safety Management Capacity Re­ views for the MDB Road Safety Work­ ing Group, thus improving the reviews of all the MDBs glob­ ally, not just those conducted by the World Bank. The re­ vised draft guidelines are under consid­ eration by the MDB working group, for publication as an MDB product; ƒƒ A framework for SDG delivery on Road Safety, called the Save LIVES Package, was developed by a working group which included World Bank/GRSF road safety staff, and was published by WHO. The World Bank led a successful refocus of the document onto speed manage­ ment; GRSF Annual Report 2017 25 ƒƒ Road Safety Flagship Projects were chosen and expert input was provid­ ed by multiple mem­ bers of the road safety GSG team. A report of lessons learned from these projects is in de­ velopment for FY 18; ƒƒ Guidance was developed for the new World Bank Road Safety Safe­ guard that will be in effect in 2018 for all projects under the new Envi­ ronmental and Social Framework. Tier 1 (overview) Guidance was re­ written by the road safety team and Tier 2 (detailed) Guidance develop­ ment is ongoing; ƒƒ A two-day training course in road safety during the Transport and ICT Learning Forum was conducted for staff; ƒƒ Two seminars on safety interventions in urban roads and rural asset management were conducted by the GRSF staff in coordination with the Road Safety GSG; ƒƒ A UN Road Safety Week seminar was organized with the GRSF, Road Safety GSG, and the CDC to discuss efforts to reduce road fatalities in the developing world. 26 GRSF Annual Report 2017 ANNEXES GRSF Annual Report 2017 27 PAPERS AND TALKS 2016-17 PEER-REVIEWED JOURNAL PAPERS AND CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS Global Burden of Disease Study Authors (2017).
