해상교통안전진단제도가 도입된 이후 다수의 안전진단이 수행되고, '11년 6월 '해사안전법'으로 전부 개정된 후 진단시행지침의 전부 개정을 통해 미비사항을 개선하고, 진단전문기관을 지정하는 등 정착 단계에 이르렀다. 하지만, 안전진단제도가 운영되는 단계에서 심사과정에 대한 다양한 개선요구사항이 대두되고 있다. 즉, 당연직 중심의 심사위원회 운영으로 해상교통안전만을 중시한 보완요구, 다단계의 보완지시에 따른 전반적인 심사처리기간 장기화 등으로 자칫 제도자체의 실효성에 의문을 제기할 우려가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 심사위원회 운영상 문제점을 분석하여 개선사항을 도출하였다. 또한, 시설물 안전진단, 해역이용협의평가, 환경영향평가 등 유사제도의 심사체계 사례분석 및 영향평가제도에 대한 감사원 감사결과를 분석하여 원활한 업무처리 및 합리적인 운영방안을 제시하였다. 향후 과제로는 고시(지침)에 근거한 전문기관 설립근거를 해사안전법에 반영하고, 원활한 심사진행을 위해 사업특성 및 해상교통에 미치는 영향정도에 따라 심사과정을 이원화하여 운영할 필요가 있다.

The rapid economic growth in Korea raised the increase of transportation demands about the passengers and the goods, and caused the concentration on cities. By the rise of a nation's income level, a automobile is necessary in our modern life. However, the traffic delays and traffic accidents that are raised by automobiles decrease the evaluation about a nation's economy and then the government practices the traffic safety improvement project. In this study, by performing the improvement project, we expect to achieve the following objectives. First, this study analyses the degree of effectiveness whether or not success in the improvement. Second, to supply the data on the effectiveness of the improvement and to inform the necessity of improvement. Third, to supply the information on the improvement project to the parties concerned. In this paper, through the study about identification of high accident locations, the effectiveness for the number of accidents and accident rates before-after the improvement is analyzed. Also, the B/C analysis about this locations is performed. This study shows that the number of accident and accident rates are decreased after the improvement, and there is economic validity about improvement of high accident locations.

The first phase of School Zone Improvement Project introduced to enhance the safety of school-routes were completed by 2007 and the second phase of the project will be continued from 2008 to 2012. Since a huge budget is required for the project, there is a need to evaluate how many child-related crashes were reduced through the project, prior to the implementation of the second phase. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the influence of the School Zone Improvement Project on reduction in child-related crashes with data collected from the database of the National Police Agency. This study employed a Before-and-After study with comparison group to assess how many crashes were reduced. The results showed that the number of child-related crashes were decreased by 10, which is about 39% reduction in crash frequencies. With respect to the land use characteristics of school zones, the number of reduced crashes in residential zone, commercial zone, and mixed zone were 2.41, 3.8, and 0.5, respectively. The results may provide a significant implication for the second phase of the project that there is a need to establish different plans for improvement project with respect to land use characteristics.

Government agencies, such as police and local governments, strive to prevent traffic hazards and create a comfortable road environment by pormoting transportation and road facilities. To this end, roads and transportation facilities are enhanced and adjusted, and improvement projects in areas with frequent traffic accidents are carried out. Usually, improvement projects in areas with frequent traffic accidents vary by projects and region. Moreover, these projects are carried out under the supervision of a person in charge and related parties. Hence, civil complaints and subjectivity are reflected in deriving priorities for the improvement projects, limiting the efficiency of the project. To this end, a study was conducted to estimate the direction of improvement of the project target site. This study comprehensively considered road, traffic, and accident conditions of representative projects with high effectiveness in handling traffic accidents. The results of the study state that the accuracy of estimating the improvement project was around 88%. In addition, the study found that there was a strong relationship between traffic volume, accident rate, and accident severity in estimating the improvement direction.

Recently, the automobile industry is rapidly changing due to autonomous vehicles based on advanced ICT technology. As a result, studies related to autonomous vehicles have also been actively conducted. However, most studies are focusing on the autonomous driving technology so that the prediction of changes in road traffic safety and associated legal system due to the introduction of autonomous vehicles are lacking. The purpose of this study is to suggest improvement methods and priorities of road traffic safety projects according to the introduction of autonomous vehicles. As a result of the AHP analysis using the results of the questionnaire surveyed for autonomous driving car experts, it was analyzed that revision of the traffic safety inspection law and development of education system for autonomous driving motor drivers and operators should be given top priority.

2006년부터 시행 중인 「교통약자의 이동편의 증진법(교통약자법)」 제6조에 따라 교통약자의 이동편의증진을 위한 5년 단위 국가계획인 제4차 교통약자 이동편의 증진계획(2022~2026)이 수립 중에 있다. 2021년에 조사된 여객선의 기준적합 설치현황을 보면, '19~'20년 기준 여객선의 기준적합 설치율이 34.9%로 타 교통수단에 비해서 매우 낮은 설치율을 보이고 있다. 해양수산부에서는 2000년부터 연안여객선의 교통약자 이동편의시설 설치를 통한 장애인 노약자 등 교통약자의 이동편의 증진을 위해, 연안여객선 교통약자 이동편의시설 설치 지원 사업을 진행 중에 있으나, 여객선의 구조적 특성으로 인한 이동편의 개선의 한계로 인해 획기적 개선은 이루어지지 않고 있다. 본 발표에서는 제4차 교통약자 이동편의 증진계획 수립을 위해 해양 교통수단의 특성, 이용 만족도 및 선박의 안전성 등을 고려한 여객선 교통약자 이동편의 증진 대책을 소개하고자 한다.

The number of traffic accidents at intersections has been increased over the past decade, and in 2014, accounted for 44% of the total traffic accidents. In addition, since most of road accident black spots include signalized intersections, the improvement of safety on signalized intersection is top priority for national road safety program in Korea. For the decision of most effective action plan for the safety of signalized intersection, this study conducted meta-analyses to assess the effects of various road safety facilities at signalized intersection on traffic accidents. We selected 19 articles regarding the prediction of traffic accidents at signalized intersection and calculated 34 individual effect sizes on 8 variables included in the articles. The results found that there was a statistically significant negative relationship between the occurrence of traffic accident and the presence of all of road safety facilities except an exclusive left turn bay. It shows that most of the road safety facilities could prevent traffic accidents, and intersection channelization has the most effective on the reduction of traffic accidents followed by left-turn acceleration lane, lightning, crosswalk, exclusive right-turn lane and median barrier.

The Maritime Traffic Safety Audit Scheme was institutionalized in 2009 to provide for professional surveys, measurement and the evaluation of navigational hazards that might occur in coastal waters in the course of marine work. Related researches that dealt with the reform of the Maritime Traffic Safety Audit Scheme found that there were no rules or regulations for verifying whether marine work conformed to audit results and reviewing the exactitude of ship handling simulations which were a crucial part of the scheme. According to the necessity of adopting an ex post facto management system in the field of maritime traffic, this study analyzed the similar audit acts such as the Natural Environment Impact Audit Scheme and the Road Traffic Safety Audit Scheme, and proposed specific articles for revising Maritime Safety Act in order to break out from the institutional inertia of the current Maritime Traffic Safety Audit Scheme. It is expected that a newly proposed legal system for verifying the performance of audit results and the exactitude of audits will help improve maritime traffic safety by eradicating potentially hidden hazards related to marine work.

선박조종시뮬레이션의 평가항목 중 운항자[주관적] 평가는 선박조종 시뮬레이션을 선박운항자가 안전진단대상사업으로 인하여 느끼는 심리적 부담 또는 위험도를 평가하는 것이다. 해상교통안전진단 시행지침 상 운항자[주관적] 평가의 결과가 평균-2.0이상인 경우 해상교통환경 변화에 따른 통항 및 접이안 안전성 확보가 가능하다고 평가하고 있으나 정성적인 평가기준 -2.0에 대한 명확한 근거가 부족하였다. 이에 본 연구에서는 현재까지 제출된 진단보고서 중 116건의 시뮬레이션 결과 나타난 운항자[주관적] 평가값을 사업대상별로 분류하여 톤수, 선종, 입출항별 분석을 통한 문제점을 도출하고 이에 대한 기술기준 개선(안)을 제시하였다.
