Dr. Saharjo Road Condition Audit Using IRAP Method to Achieve 3 Star Rating
Traffic accidents are not just individual tragedies, but they also hinder economic growth, especially in developing countries. Traffic accidents continue to increase every year. One of the reasons is that there are still many roads that haven’t applied the principle of safe roads to their design. The increase in traffic accidents shouldn’t be underestimated because traffic accidents are predictable and prevented. To reduce the risk of accidents, it is necessary to carry out a strategy to improve road safety using existing methods. One of the methods is International Road Assessment Programme (IRAP) which was used in this study on Dr. Saharjo Road to achieving star ratings 3. From the observation, it was found the existing road conditions were very good for the vehicle occupant it had reached 4 stars, and it was functional for motorcycles and bicycles it had reached 3 stars, but for pedestrians on the road is still lacking in facilities because it only reaches 2 stars. So, it is necessary to do countermeasures through the existing treatment options to increase the star rating to 3 stars in all road users.
