Identification of Traffic Accident Hazardous Location and Cost of Accidents in Developing Country (Case Study of Tabanan Regency, Bali-Indonesia)
Road traffic accidents have long become a major issue in Indonesia. The number of accident fatalities has increased following the increase in population and motor vehicle ownership. The increase in traffic accidents will be followed by an increase in traffic accident costs. As limited funds are available, one important step required is to identify traffic accident hazardous locations. Previous studies on black spots in developing countries such as Indonesia mainly did not consider the frequency of each type of accident, the impact on mitigation measures such as shortcuts development in reducing accidents, and the cost of traffic accidents. The objectives of this study were to identify black sites and black spots, calculate economic loss due to road traffic accidents, and evaluate the impact on the shortcut’s development. This study applied a z-score to identify black sites and CUSUM to identify black spots. The cost incurred due to the accident was analyzed by using the gross output method. Three road sections were found to be the locations of accident-prone areas (black sites). By comparing conditions before and after three shortcuts were built on black spot location, it was found that the existence of the shortcuts has reduced the number of traffic accidents by 70%. The refinement of the road infrastructure has reduced the number of traffic accidents significantly. The average annual cost of accidents in the Tabanan Regency was IDR 10,115,918,496/year.
