The federal government has launched a road safety guidelines developed by the Nigeria Building and Road Research Institute (NBRRI.)
The Minister of Works, Mr Mike Onolememen, launched the document yesterday in Abuja.
“It is my belief that the first edition of the Road Safety Guidelines (RSG2014) which provides information specifically for the country and sets out standard approach to accident data analysis will go a long way to help address some of the developmental challenges we face in the road sector,” he said.
Mr Onolememen stressed the need for relevant ministries, departments, and agencies to collaborate in a bid to ensure safety on the roads.
The guidelines will serve as a reference document for engineering education and enforcement, and to develop a safe-road network system in Nigeria.
