摘要：

Whereas the majority of the model variables are to be ascribed to the transport sector, the so-called 'background variables' mainly relate to other areas of urban development. Based on the elasticities of the variables describing various levels of dependencies, an evaluation procedure has been developed. Based on this the applicability of the research findings to urban planning operations can be assessed. The contributions to road safety of the different variables can be quantified and compared, and recommended courses of action can be derived from this procedure. By means of the model and the evaluation procedure the following possibilities relevant to planning arise: (i) a method to assess the level of road safety of an entire residential area; and (ii) to assess individual measures with respect to the safety gains to which they might lead; as well as (iii) to formulate recommendations for urban planning actions based on quantification of their road safety consequences.
