Researching road safety problems and issues is vital for the work of RSS. RSS commissions a variety of research projects ranging from attitudinal surveys to evaluation studies. Certain projects are funded directly from RSS budgets allocated to its sub-committees. In addition, the Scottish Government's Transport Directorate allocates a sum for projects carried out on behalf of RSS, while the main research programme is funded by the Scottish Government's Transport Research Planning Group. All completed reports can be found on the Scottish Government's website and by following the appropriate links below.
