Zambia’s road-safety implementation partner
Current road-safety priorities. Practical routes for action.
This homepage directs visitors to ZRST’s current road-safety priorities, evidence pages, programme offers and the right contact route for schools, councils, companies, donors, researchers and public institutions.
Full organisational background is available on the About page. This page is designed for action, evidence and navigation.
Zambia’s road-safety context
Zambia Police figures reported by ZRST show a serious road-safety burden. Police records do not estimate the full injury burden, but they provide an important public baseline for action.
Current priorities
Where practical action is needed now.
These routes help visitors move quickly from a road-safety concern to the most relevant ZRST programme page.

School-zone risk, safer crossings, school-frontage protection, traffic calming where approved, road-safety education and school confirmation evidence.

Walking and cycling safety, NMT corridors, junction risk, safe crossings, vulnerable road users and local street-safety priorities.

Evidence visitors can check before they contact ZRST.
The homepage points serious readers to evidence pages where documents, results and limits can be checked without repeating full programme narratives.
reported speed reduction across assessed school zones
TRANS-SAFE reported lower vehicle speeds after school-zone interventions. These are assessed-site results, not national outcomes.
Review research evidence →reported reduction in unsafe crossing behaviour
Project evidence is presented with limits so readers can distinguish measured activity from wider road-safety claims.
View programme evidence →school zones reached at least 3-star iRAP pedestrian rating
Site-level results should be read alongside implementation records, school evidence, partner records and monitoring notes.
