Road Safety Data Assessment in Vietnam for the Establishment of a National Road Safety Observatory.

The World Bank has been assisting the Government of Vietnam, through the National Traffic Safety Committee

Abstract

The World Bank has been assisting the Government of Vietnam (GoVN), through the National Traffic Safety Committee (NTSC), to establish a National Road Safety Observatory (NRSO) for Vietnam, improve road safety data systems, and update the National Road Safety Strategy and Action Plan for Vietnam. Input to the updated national strategy observed that there is insufficient attention given to the overall results framework (beyond simply the number of fatalities and serious injuries) that is required to achieve significant and sustainable reductions in serious road trauma. This reflects a need to strengthen both national governance and leadership arrangements for road safety, and road safety data systems (including road crash data systems), which are the focus of this report.

This paper was supported by the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office, through the Global Road Safety Facility
