Scope of Work
Road Safety Audit shall be carried out in accordance with the Guideline For The
Safety Audit Or Roads And Road Projects In Malaysia prepared by JKR and shall
include audits at the following stages of the project:
Stage 1 Audit -
The Stage 1 Audit will be carried out during the Planning phase, where a
number of alternative proposals are being considered for the project. Audit
is to be made of each alternative, the results of which (to the extent
relevant) should be included in the evaluation process.
Stage 2 Audit -
The Stage 2 Audit will be carried out at the end of the preliminary design
phase where the Functional Layout has been prepared and land
acquisition requirements are being determined.
Stage 3 Audit -
This audit must be done at an appropriate stage towards the end (but not
at the end) of the detailed design, or as soon as it is possible to determine
the safety implications of the design and when changes can be made at
the most opportune time to avoid costly redesign. This may necessitate
separate audit checks as various elements of the project reach the desired
stage of design.
The audit work at this stage includes auditing the suitability and workability
of the proposed traffic management that will be carried out during the
construction. The Guidelines on the Estimation Procedures for Traffic
Management prepared by JKR will be used as a basis for the traffic
management procedures.

ii)
The audit at this stage will be carried out three (3) times during the
construction duration:
Should the Supervision Officer requires additional audit, he shall ask the

fees shall be agreed upon by the Supervision Officer and the Road Safety
Auditor.

Roles of Auditor
The
principal
role
of
the
Auditor
is
to
ensure
that
safety
deficiencies/problems/hazard are identified before they are locked into the design
and/or become a safety problem. The Auditor is expected to highlight all the safety
deficiencies in a design/existing road.
The Auditor will look into:
a.
Adoption of appropriate standards
b.
Compliance and non compliance of standards that will have road safety
implications
The Auditors primary role is to look into the safety repercussion of compliance to
standard or otherwise and highlight the possible consequences wherever possible
of major road safety deficiencies. The Auditor is expected to use his/her
experience and wisdom in dealing with the design checkers in these overlapped
areas.
The following flowchart indicates the position of the Auditor in relationship with
other parties:
