Road safety analysis refers to thoroughly examining roads and general transportation infrastructure using various analytical methods. It usually involves a multidisciplinary team with the local governing body and other stakeholders to check for potential safety issues and bring improvements within the same. The purpose of this review paper is to study the causes of road accidents and identify the active blackspots present in Raipur city. The goal is to prevent accidents by making sure road infrastructure is designed and optimised for safety and efficiency. According to the Ministry of Road Transport & Highways (MoRTH), Government of India, road accident blackspot on National Highways is a road stretch of about 500m in length in which either 5 road accidents (involving fatalities/grievous injuries) took place during the last three calendar years or 10 fatalities took place during the last three calendar years. Through detailed study and analysis, one can surmise that Road Safety Analysis can be easily broken down to factors such as types of road users, presence of traffic calming devices, weather conditions, whether users possess a driver’s licence and much more. Furthermore, it is important to address the deficiency and failure of one or more elements in road infrastructures to curb the issue of road accidents by understanding the data obtained accordingly.
