Abstract
All road safety audit process done for Indian condition are effective, but tedious and also time consuming. This paper is intended to illustrate applications of Geographic Information System (GIS) in transportation planning for which authors have made an attempt to simplify road safety audit process by integrating it with a GIS based software ?Gram ++?. This technique will help the road auditors to differentiate different sites of a road segment having higher accident frequency with sites having low accident frequency which should be potentially improved in a cost effective manner. It will also help road safety audit experts to identify and focus on the real problems at specific site of road segment right from planning stage for which authors have presented the procedure & discussed how it can be applied so that all road features can be considered simultaneously.
