Safety and Sustainability
A higher safety and a better sustainability are important goals of the Dutch traffic and transport policy. Improving safety and sustainability are also important aspects in traffic management, although it is difficult to estimate or measure effects. Also, the inclusion of safety and sustainability indicators in traffic models is an area to develop.
