        Extending the life and increasing car traffic in cities and roads in the last half century, In front of the rate of road accidents and incidents have led to today's safety issue in the field of traffic become one of the most basic topics and challenges of road transport sector. The importance of traffic safety in road transport planning issues and Iran's position among the countries with the highest mortality from accidents, was led to study a plan to achieve consistent, accurate and compiled with an emphasis on documentary sources and statistical auto route and road transport organizations during 2011, 2012 and 2013, to Measure provinces of the country's development in the field of road traffic safety. The study was designed to determine the position of each of the provinces of the country in road safety and traffic, applied research is a descriptive-analytic method and utilizing the software’s SPSS, Excel and Fuzzy TOPSIS technique and hierarchical cluster analysis, trying to make the data available for evaluation and analysis. The findings indicate that in terms of development in the field of road safety and traffic, there is a huge gap between provinces of the country,The way that suggests of the provinces country, that only of Tehran, has been found to be satisfactory in terms of highly developed and16 provinc in row deprived areas and 4 provinc Khuzestan, Kohgiluyeh and BoyerAhmad, Khorasan jonobi and Kerman have been placed in rows deprived areas. The analysis also shows that the provinces of Qom, Alborz, Mazandaran, Lorestan and Zanjan the row developed provinces and provinces of Golestan, Markazi, Semnan, Hamedan, and Qazvin Have taken place in the category of medium developed areas. It believes that the expenses spent for road safety is not only a cost but an investment in sustainable And so to achieve the desired development and elimination of enormous deprivation in the field of road safety and traffic, Should consider the specific circumstances of natural areas, the situation with regard to the revision and along the way covered by each province, Spatial planning should be to increase the quality and quantity of resources and standardization of indicators.

        In today's world, issues such as the depletion of energy resources, environmental pollution, the increase in material and spiritual damages caused by accidents, the supervision and management of intercity transportation, the increase in wasted time, and the rapid growth of transportation demand in the world have become a serious problem in the road transportation sector. This is while the existence of smooth and safe transportation is one of the most fundamental infrastructures for development and increasing the level of well-being and social welfare in any country. On the other hand, the rapid growth of emerging technologies that play a driving role in various industries and economic sectors and guide the transportation industry towards becoming intelligent, increasing efficiency, and raising the level of service quality has attracted the attention of policymakers and planners in the country to use these emerging technologies to solve the serious problems in this field. Due to the limitations of resources, naturally, a comprehensive understanding and then prioritization of these technologies can be a step towards getting out of the current situation. In this research, an attempt has been made to identify emerging technologies in road transportation by conducting library studies and then prioritizing them using the multi-criteria decision-making method (TOPSIS). The results indicate that according to the indicators of national strategic goals in this sector, the "smart communication networks" technology ranks first, followed closely by "traffic automation" and "smart buses" technologies in the second and third ranks, respectively, with an index close to the first rank.
