Abstract
India, being a rapidly developing country with expanding economy, has its own issues as regarding road traffic accidents due to rapid proliferation of motorisation. Since the situation differs significantly between cities, it is important to evolve city-specific policies for safety intervention priorities. In view of the above, this research work examine, towards efficient and effective road engineering interventions for Patiala City (Punjab state). The main purpose of this study is to identify and analyse the reasons for road traffic accidents in Patiala. Also this study investigates the different causes of accidents occurred in past years in Patiala. Patiala was reported in one of the accident-prone zones in Punjab with having highest rate of road accidents. This study examines the underlying causes of accidents and strategies for preventing them.
