New unsafe roads are being designed and built because national standards are out of date and/or road authorities and design engineering consulting firms are unaware of today’s safety best practices and new state of the art technologies. In response, the IRF has created a complete and comprehensive internationally acclaimed world class safety workshop — Safer Roads by Design™ — built to leave a lasting impression on attendees. Its intent is to introduce concepts that can be used to prevent crashes, as well as concepts that will help reduce the severity of crashes.
This particular workshop will focus on Vulnerable Road Users (VRU) and Work Zones with a brief introduction to Road Safety Audits. Taught by one the one leading voices of Road Safety around the world, Mr. Michael Dreznes (Executive Vice President- IRF), this workshop is designed to transfer to each participant the necessary knowledge and skills to be able to diagnose safety issues associated with Vulnerable Road Users and Work Zones and to also select the appropriate actions and countermeasures to address those issues.
Participants who complete this workshop will receive an international IRF Certificate of Completion, as well as 10 Professional Development Hours (PDH). Furthermore, delegates will be added to the IRF Road Safety Mailing list and, as alumni of the course, will have access to IRF professionals.
