초록

교통안전시설 중 중앙분리대는 정면충돌 사고 예방에 효과가 있다고 인식되어 4차로 이상 국도를 대상으로 설치가 이루어지고 있다. 중앙분리대 설치효과분석에 관한 연구는 국내 외에서 지속적으로 이루어지고 있는데. 주로 해당구간의 전체적인 사고감소효과를 제시하고 있다. 즉, 지점에서 사고유형별 또는 심각도별로 사고발생형태가 어떻게 변화되는지에 대한 연구가 미미한 실정이다. 국외에서는 주로 중앙분리대 설치유형에 따른 사고감소효과를 산정하고 있으며, 국내에서는 일부 사고유형별 감소효과를 산정한 사례가 있기는 하나 시설물 설치전 후 각 1년만의 사고자료만을 이용함으로써 도출된 값의 통계적 신뢰성을 확보하지 못하고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 중앙분리대 설치에 따른 사고유형별 사고심각도별 사고전환효과를 추정하고자 한다 이를 위하여 중앙분리대가 설치된 국토 깊차로 108.6km에 대하여 사업전 후 총 7년간의 교통사고자료, 안전시설물 설치이력과 도로선형요소에 대한 조사와 자료수집이 이루어졌다 다음으로 경험적베이즈(Empirical Bayes)기법을 이용한 모형구축과 사고유형 심각도의 사고전환효과를 추정하였다. 연구결과는 향후 중앙분리대 관련 정책집행과 시설기준제시에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Among tile traffic safety facilities, median barriers are installed above 4-lane national roads due to the awareness of haying an effect on preventing the front collision. Studies about the installation effect analysis of median harrier have been carried out through both at home and outside, mainly indicating total accident reduction effect on pertinent sections. In sum, study about how the accident occurrence form is changed at the point classified by the accident type or severity is insignificant. In the case of outside the country, calculating the accident reduction effect according to the type of median barriers is main research and in domestic, though there is a part of researches assessing reduction effect by accident types, it is not reliable in the view or statistics because of using only 1year's before-aftev data installing the facility, So in this Paper. it is the main purpose to presume the accident conversion effect. For this, we conduct an investigation and collect data about 7-year's accident data containing before-after Project, safety facilities foundation records and index of road alignment on the subject of 4-1ane national roads(108.6km) existing median barrier. Next. using the empirical bayes method, we estimate a model construction and accident conversion effect of accident type severity. We expect the result or this Paper will be applied for a policy execution and Presentation of facility standard related to median barrier from now on.
