This article comprehensively analyzes urban factors that play a crucial role in preventing road traffic accidents (RTAs) and transport crimes in Ukraine between 2020 and 2025. The study evaluates the impact of various aspects of the urban environment, including the quality of road infrastructure, urban planning features, the availability of pedestrian and cycling paths, and the effectiveness of public transport and intelligent transport systems. Particular attention is paid to modern architectural and planning solutions aimed at improving road safety, and an analysis of the effectiveness of implemented infrastructure solutions in the context of reducing accident rates and transport crime has been carried out. Social and behavioral aspects of urbanism are also analyzed, specifically the influence of urban design on the behavior of road users (drivers, pedestrians, cyclists) and the role of public participation and law enforcement agencies in shaping a safe road environment. The article emphasizes that the proposed ways to optimize transport safety, based on the study and adaptation of international experience, are critically important for ensuring the sustainable development of Ukrainian cities. This work highlights current challenges and prospects for developing urban approaches in Ukraine, stressing the imperative of a comprehensive and interdisciplinary approach to ensuring high road safety and effective prevention of transport crimes.
