Abstract
Indian society is currently quite concerned about the rising number of road accidents that occur
every year. The loss of life, injuries, and property damage brought on by these traffic accidents is a grave
concern. According to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) for 2030, providing access to safe,
accessible, and sustainable transportation is urgently needed. Road safety thus becomes a crucial concern
in the current situation. This study examined the NH-44 road stretch to pinpoint its black spots. The
accidental information was gathered from police stations and visual assessments throughout a 48 km
section of the two-lane NH-44 from Ambala to Kurukshetra. The accidental density approach has been used to do the analysis, and black spots were found. Three black spots, specifically, have been discovered. The causes of accidents in these blackspots have been identified, and preventative actions for a decrease in accidents along this stretch have been proposed.
