bring about a reduction in traffic accidents including fatalities. Doubtless, this would either complicate, or simply be beyond the scope of many aid funded road construction projects. As an alternative it may be appropriate to include design features that deliberately slow traffic at selection locations in recognition of the limited attention provided to road user education and enforcement in Indonesia and many other developing countries. the issues of education and enforcement were not constrained just to EINRIP. The users of these roads and those enforcing safety standards extended beyond the scope of the project. We agree that the road safety lesson from EINRIP is really that better roads lead to more severe accidents as vehicle speeds increase and DFAT Posts supporting road investments should consider whether complementary road safety programs are appropriate. Often this will be the case and will be considered in the work of our new infrastructure program, KIAT. The potential for infrastructure to impact on men and women differently is not well understood- All parties Agree We are seeking to ensure that gender considerations are central to the work of KIAT, and the ODE Evaluation has been provided to the KIAT team
