World Bank GRSF Wins Three Prince Michael Awards 2020 for Effective Delivery of Global Road Safety
Email
Washington D.C. (December 23, 2020) –  The Prince Michael International Awards for Road Safety began in 1987, and are regarded as the ‘academy awards’ of global road safety. Each year, major successes in road safety around the world are identified in five categories: Road Safety Management; Safer Roads; Safer Vehicles; Safer Road Users; and Post-Crash Response.
This year, the work of the World Bank and GRSF received the following awards:
. In this project, GRSF, with funding from UK Aid, supported the installation of 73,000 meters of crash barriers along some of the country’s deadliest roads. According to GRSF projected estimates, the new barriers may save up to 3,456 lives over the next 20 years, in addition to preventing countless injuries. The approach and technical specifications for road safety barriers, along with the experience and results of this World Bank-GRSF project, also helped inform other infrastructure projects. Importantly, the success of the project encouraged the Government of Nepal to develop and start the implementation of a broader Road Safety Strategy.
