Logical Structure of Actions to Reduce the Impacts of Traffic Incidents
Abstract
Traffic incidents (such as broken-down vehicles, accidents, flat tires and other) constitute an
important concern in the urban context, impacting the sustainable development. Thus, currently, the
proposition of efficient traffic incident management systems has been encouraged to re-establish road
safety and restore the network's traffic capacity. Thus, this paper aims to investigate the main impacts
of traffic incidents and elaborate a logical structure of actions that should be employed to improve
their management. The results show that many impacts can be identified in the three spheres of
sustainable development and improvement actions must accelerate responses to emergencies, invest
in Intelligent Transportation System (ITS), develop urban planning with a focus on more roads secure
and enforce existing laws and regulations.
