Restoring Pedestrian Accessibility in Indian Cities
Badami, Madhav G. | September 2009
Abstract
In India, road traffic deaths have increased from 15,000 in 1971 to 93,000 in 2004. Deaths of pedestrians and cyclists account for 50 and 67% of numbers, motorcycle and car users for 25% and 5%, respectively. The World Health Organization projects traffic accidents to be the fifth leading cause of death in the world by 2030.
