ABOUT THE INTIATIVE

What is Project Intersect?

From Crash Data to Countermeasures.

Our city's roads remain unsafe.
Bengaluru recorded 4,893 road accidents in 2025 alone.

Project Intersect, under the Greater Bengaluru Authority’s road safety initiative, enables the planning and prioritisation of road safety interventions through a data-driven approach - informed by crash data at every stage.

So what are we doing to make Bengaluru’s roads safer?

IDENTIFIED LOCATIONS

We use crash data to identify the city’s most high-risk locations - junctions and corridors where accidents are concentrated.

COUNTERMEASURE MATRIX

Every high-risk location is mapped to a set of targeted interventions, using a data-derived countermeasure matrix

PUBLIC DASHBOARD

The data and countermeasures are accessible on a dashboard - showing high-risk locations, their risk levels, and recommended interventions.

TYPOLOGIES

What kind of High Risk Areas
can you improve?

Five typologies of high risk locations that you can fund, vote and prioritise

TYPOLOGY 01

HIGH PEDESTRIAN FATALITY

Our data identifies locations that report higher numbers of pedestrian fatality.

These locations lack critical pedestrian infrastructure (crossings, footpath, signages, speed reduction) in locations with heavy footfall, around mass transit and in residential areas.

Bengaluru topped the country in number of pedestrian deaths in the last two years.

Bengaluru topped the country in number of pedestrian deaths in the last two years.

TYPOLOGY 02

UNSAFE INTERSECTIONS

Our data identifies junctions of high priority that record disproportionately high rates of vehicle-to-vehicle and pedestrian collisions.

These locations share common failings - irregular lane markings, sub-optimal signals, and inadequate crossing infrastructure - that make every road user vulnerable.

TYPOLOGY 03

SCHOOL ZONES

Data indicates that school children face risks during opening (9 am–10 am) and closing hours (3 pm–4 pm).

As most children walk or cycle to schools, the poor pedestrian infrastructure puts them at risk. Children are more vulnerable on Indian roads as their small size restricts their vision and ability to perceive potential threats.

TYPOLOGY 04

HIGH SPEED CORRIDORS

Our data identifies corridors of high priority where speeding is the dominant cause of both pedestrian and vehicle casualties.

Research shows that a five percent reduction in speed can equate to a thirty percent reduction in fatalities, making speed calming interventions among the highest-impact measures available. (BTP Report 2024)

93% of fatalities and 91% of injuries caused in road accidents were attributed to speeding. (BTP 2024)

TYPOLOGY 05

SIGNAGES & MARKINGS

Find zones where inadequate signage and road markings put all road users at risk.

Long stretches of road with unpainted humps, missing lane markings, and limited signage at blind turns create zones that are accident prone.
