The promotion of a safer transport system is a high-level objective included in Scotland's Transport Future (2004) and retained in the National Transport Strategy for Scotland (2006). The Safety Criterion covers two sub-criteria; to reduce accidents and to improve security.
Practitioners should note that the safety values derived via the methodology described below should be presented independently in the Safety Part 2 Appraisal Summary Tables, and not included with the TEE results. This is to avoid double counting and is consistent with the guidance for the Environment Criterion.
