Accident Characteristics and Safety Countermeasures for Continuous Downgrade Highway on Gobi Desert

Abstract:

Gobi desert highway in the road alignment and roadside environment has obvious characteristics. Based on the analysis of accident forms and accident causes can be concluded, the accident on continuous downgrade has a direct relationship with poor alignment, low-load driving operation, and monotonous roadside environment. To this end, the paper put forward specific security measures for ease fatigue and continuous downgrade alert, such as safety facilities design, speed management, service facilities optimization, etc. in order to significantly reduce the accident rate and eliminate major accident hidden dangers for continuous downgrade highway on Gobi desert.
