Relationships Between External Factors and Pedestrian Accident Blackspots – A Case Study of the City of Zagreb

Authors:Mario Ćosić, Ljupko Šimunović, Marijan Jakovljević

Abstract

Prometne su nesreće socijalni, javnozdravstveni i politički izazov svake države. U urbanim je sredinama karakteristično intenzivno prometno opterećenje cestovne mreže na kojoj se stalno izmjenjuju različiti prometni uvjeti koji dovode do međusobnih interakcija motoriziranoga i nemotoriziranoga prometa, što predstavlja potencijalnu opasnost za nastanak prometnih nesreća. Iako su prometne nesreće s aspekta prostora i vremena slučajni događaji, detaljnom se analizom može uspostaviti korelacija između prometnih nesreća i vanjskih čimbenika (cestovna infrastruktura, prometni, vremenski uvjeti, namjena zemljišta). U radu je istražen utjecaj vanjskih čimbenika na nastanak žarišta prometnih nesreća pješaka u gradu Zagrebu. Kako bi utvrdili vanjske čimbenike koji dovode do stvaranja žarišta prometnih nesreća prvo su identificirana sama žarišta odnosno opasna mjesta, a potom se pristupilo analizi uzroka događanja prometnih nesreća. rovedenim istraživanjem su utvrđeni različiti stupnjevi utjecaja vanjskih čimbenika na nastanak opasnih mjesta.
