Although the highest rate of accidents are carried out by motorcycles, those who transport merchandise are seriously affected, and it is unsafe for both the driver and the company responsible for the transfer. International Land Transportation One of the most in-depth studies on roads in Spain was presented in 2013 by the European Road Assessment Program (EuroRAP) , an NGO dedicated to saving lives by promoting the construction of safe roads. In this report, more than 6,300 kilometers of the road network in Catalonia were analyzed, with the most dangerous road being the one that connects Barcelona with San Cugat de Vallés, better known as: la Abarrassada road ; as well as the N-145 that communicates Seu d'Urgell with the French border. Both known for their high traffic of heavy merchandise transport. The reports presented in triennia, by EuroRAP, yielded a more recent result, in which the Reial Automobil Club de Catalunya (RACC) has joined with the collaboration of the Catalan Traffic Service, the Barcelona Provincial Council and the Department of Territory and Sustainability of the Generalitat; in which they point to the need to reinforce security for the transport of goods, in many cases heavy, on the N-340 road , known for the circulation of this type of transport. In this dangerous ranking of highways, in which merchandise transport circulates, is the BV-5001 road, between the B-20 and Martorelles; followed by the B-502 from Villassar de Mar and Argentona. Although in the last ten years the mortality and risk rates have been decreasing in Catalonia, the latest EuroRAP report from the State Roads Network (RCE) , from December 2016, continues to locate the Lleida, N-260 and N roads -230 highest risk , in fifth and fourth place respectively ; with a moderate flow of heavy freight transport. What would be the solution for the transport of safe merchandise? Among the main reasons why the roads of Catalonia have become a risk factor for the transport of merchandise is because many of the roads have sections of one lane for each direction, in addition to the little information and prevention on the tracks. That is why these European NGOs with their reports, encourage governments to invest more in signaling, expansion and education on community roads.
