Overview
High road crash fatality and injury rates on Sri Lanka’s roads are undermining the economic growth and progress made over the past decade on reducing poverty and boosting prosperity. Estimated annual road crash deaths per capita in Sri Lanka are twice the average rate in high-income countries and five times that of the best-performing countries in the world. Improving road safety in Sri Lanka is vital to national health, well-being, and economic growth.
