In a world increasingly reliant on efficient and safe transportation networks, Saudi Arabia has taken a decisive step forward with SHC 603, a dedicated volume in the Saudi Highway Code that outlines requirements and procedures for enhancing road safety. SHC 603 isn't just a guideline—it's a strategic roadmap to significantly reduce road crashes, improve safety infrastructure, and create a unified framework across the Kingdom.
With rapid infrastructure development under Vision 2030, ensuring the safety of road users has become a national priority. SHC 603 serves this goal by offering:
It’s a clear shift from reactive to proactive road safety management.
Accurate crash data is the cornerstone of effective road safety planning. SHC 603 specifies the need for:
The code aligns with Model Minimum Uniform Crash Criteria (MMUCC) to ensure consistency across agencies in Saudi Arabia.
To support predictive crash analysis, SHC 603 prescribes:
This comprehensive data model enables better planning, evaluation, and implementation of countermeasures.
SPIs are categorized into:
These indicators guide policymakers in measuring current performance and identifying improvement areas.
A structured five-step screening process is outlined:
This helps in identifying high-risk zones for targeted intervention.
After crash diagnosis, SHC 603 guides on selecting appropriate measures and evaluating them through:
SHC 603 outlines audits for all phases:
Each audit involves a qualified, independent safety team, using SHC checklists for thorough evaluation.
SHC 603 promotes a hybrid approach, balancing historical trends with predictive analytics for effective planning.
Speed is a major contributor to crashes. SHC 603 includes:
These techniques are especially vital for urban and school zones in Saudi cities.
Focuses on:
Covers:
This is crucial for industrial zones like Jubail and Yanbu, where hazardous material movement is frequent.
To ensure safety during freight movement:
The code acknowledges that human error is inevitable, so it emphasizes:
This is aligned with the Safe System Approach, globally recognized for reducing fatal crashes.
SHC 603 is a transformative document in Saudi Arabia’s journey towards zero fatalities on roads. By integrating data-driven strategies, standardized audits, and human-centered design, it reflects the Kingdom’s commitment to road user safety at every level.
