Abstract: Rural road safety is a critical global challenge, with fatality rates in rural areas often exceeding those in urban centers. This is particularly acute in developing nations with underdeveloped infrastructure, a situation exemplified by the rural road network in southern Libya. This research paper investigates the role of traffic planning in mitigating the high incidence of traffic accidents on the rural roads that connect the major cities of southern Libya, including Sabha, Sokna, and Kufra. The study begins with a comprehensive analysis of the existing road infrastructure, traffic patterns, and accident data, revealing a system characterized by aging and poorly maintained roads, inadequate signage, and a high rate of fatalities attributed primarily to excessive speed. The research then explores a range of proven traffic planning strategies and safety countermeasures, drawing on international best practices. These include engineering solutions such as shoulder rumble strips and roundabouts, as well as behavioral interventions like enhanced speed enforcement and public education campaigns. The paper proposes a multi-faceted, phased implementation plan for southern Libya, integrating these strategies to create a more resilient and safer road network. The findings suggest that a systematic and data-driven approach to traffic planning is not only essential but also highly effective in reducing accidents and saving lives in this critical region. .
