The road traffic crash statistics of Addis Ababa shows pedestrian injuries have the highest sharernamong all road users.This research aims to investigate current pedestrian safety problems inrnAddis Ababa and tries to identify factors influencing it.The study area, Addis Ababa has ten subrncities where Kirkos sub city ranks first with the highest total road traffic crashes.This sub city isrnselected as a study site and pedestrian-vehicle crash data for three consecutive years wererncollected. These data were analyzed using odd ratio analysis and logistic regression analysis.rnMoreover, sample pedestrians and drivers were selected randomly and filled out questionnairernwith list of hundred factors related to pedestrian safety in four categories: pedestrian related,rndriver related, vehicle related and road and environment related; which was analyzed by Likertrnscale rating and reduced it to top twenty ranked factors.Then these twenty factors; five fromrneach categories were taken and pair wise comparison by senior experts was employed byrnAnalytical Hierarchial Process (AHP) technique. Analyzing these resulted in a rank for eachrnfactor with their global weight.The top three are related to driver behavior: alcohol use by driversrn(11.55%), driver rush and negligence (6.084%) and improper or erratic lane changingrn(6.048%).The twenty factors were then grouped to the four categories with their local ranking. Inrnthe odd ratio analysis, four hypothesis were tested and only one hypothesis is acceptedrnindicating drivers with experiences of more than 10 years are most responsible to pedestrianrnserious injury. From the logit model driver-vehicle relationship, junction type, pedestrian age andrnpedestrian sex are positively associated with pedestrian injuries.Thus in order to takernappropriate measures towards pedestrian safety: pedestrian related factors, driver relatedrnfactors, vehicle related factors and road and environment related factors need to be consideredrnand appropriate measure has to be considered in a systematic way. Rather than a scatteredrnspots approach by a piecemeal basis; a perspective towards looking the urban network of roadrninfrastructure, pedestrian facilities and the urban land use is considered in this research. Thisrnresearch concludes a strategic way has to be followed towards promoting road safety andrnpedestrian safety in Addis Ababa that would be an area-wide and multi-disciplinary approach,rnthat is, urban safety management.
