An overview of tram safety in the City of Zagreb

About three quarters of total number of traffic accidents in Croatia occur in urban areas. A stable level of safety in public transport is an essential characteristic by which passengers choose which mode of transport to use. To improve results regarding traffic safety, a multidisciplinary approach has a significant role. The aim of this paper is to establish a quantitative and a qualitative analysis of traffic accidents based on several years statistics gathered by „Zagrebački električni tramvaj“ (ZET), a public transport operator in Zagreb. Also, based on analysis conducted in this paper, improvements to increase safety of tram transport in the City of Zagreb are suggested. Finally, one of the goals is to encourage further research to improve safety of tram transit network in the City of Zagreb.
