Abstract - Road Safety Audit (RSA) is a formal procedure for assessing accident potential and safety performance of new and existing roads. RSA is an efficient, cost effective and proactive approach to improve safety of the road users with leading to any trend of accidents and their impacts. RSA appears to be an ideal tool for improving road safety in India, as basic and accurate data on accidents have yet to be collected in a scientific way as well as in a systematic method. It is evident from the traffic composition for the countries like India, where heterogeneous traffic with varying vehicle types differing in their vehicle static and dynamic characteristics. The project stretches considered is NH-173 (Kadur to Chikkamagaluru – Karnataka State) ranging 45 Kms. The present study deals with road inventory, signage inventory, traffic volume count survey, spot speed study, Speed and delay study and other surveys such as topographic survey and Accident data has been collected for the stretch for a period of 2019-2023 is collected and analysis is carried out. The study aims to evaluate Road Safety Audit of a section of four-lane National Highway (NH)-173and will focus on evaluating the benefits of the proposed actions that have emanated from deficiencies identified through the audit process. Missing road and median markings to be done and speed signs should match with speed. Access and service lanes are also deficient which requires immediate improvement.
