PIARC is a global forum for exchange of knowledge and experience on roads and road transport policies and practices
À propos
PIARC (World Road Association), founded in 1909 and comprising +120 member governments from all over the world, is the global forum for exchange of knowledge and experience on roads and road transport policies and practices. (Note: PIARC is the acronym of the former name of the Association: Permanent International Association for Road Congresses). With consultative status to the Economic and Social Council of the United Nations, the Association is contributing to a stable and sustainable global development of the road and transport sector. A World Road Congress is organized every four years and gathers Ministers, decision-makers and thousands of experts to discuss the current challenges faced by the road sector, innovative approaches and best practices. The 27th edition was held in Prague (Czech Republic) in October 2023. It hosted about 50 sessions, a major exhibition, technical visits and a social program. The next XVIth World Winter Service and Road Resilience Congress will be held in Chambéry (France) in 2026. And Vancouver (Canada) has been chosen to host the next World Road Congress in 2027. With knowledge sharing as its primary goal, the Association coordinates Technical Committees and Task Forces which undertake studies, share experience and promote best practices on a broad range of areas of interest to the road and transport sector. An international seminar program is offered to low and middle income countries in support of sharing knowledge with high income countries. The outputs of these groups are a large number of reports, easily downloaded through the online knowledge base at our website. As a contribution to the UN Decade of Action for Road Safety, the Association has developed a Road Safety Manual, which was launched at the Seoul Congress in 2015.

Engagée à rendre nos routes plus sécuritaires depuis 25 ans et partageant son expertise au Québec et à l’international, Mme Lise Fournier, directrice de l’expertise et des technologies en sécurité routière, est devenue une référence dans le milieu des transports. Tout récemment, elle a été nommée membre d’honneur pour son implication majeure au sein de l’Association mondiale de la route PIARC. La participation de Mme Fournier aux activités de PIARC a pris toute son ampleur après son arrivée à la Direction de la sécurité en transport, maintenant appelée Direction de l’expertise et des technologies en sécurité routière. D’abord membre du comité national PIARC-Québec, elle a aussi été membre de plusieurs autres comités techniques de l’organisation, contribuant ainsi à la production de plusieurs documents de référence. Voici quelques faits saillants de la participation de Mme Fournier: 🔷 Coordonnatrice technique au comité national PIARC-Québec, dont elle a fait partie de 2000 à 2024; 🔷 Nomination à titre de membre de PIARC en 2004; 🔷 Membre du comité technique 3.1 Sécurité routière, de 2004 à 2007; 🔷 Membre et secrétaire francophone du comité technique C.1 Infrastructures routières plus sûres, de 2008 à 2011; 🔷 Membre et secrétaire francophone du comité technique 3.2 Conception et exploitation d’infrastructures routières plus sûres, de 2012 à 2015; 🔷 Membre correspondante du comité technique C.2 Conception et exploitation d’infrastructures routières plus sûres, de 2016 à 2019; 🔷 Membre et secrétaire francophone du comité technique 3.1 Sécurité routière, de 2020 à 2023. Mme Fournier s’est aussi illustrée lors des congrès mondiaux de la route en participant activement aux délégations du Québec dans plusieurs pays, dont à Durban en 2003, à Turin en 2006, à Paris en 2007, à Mexico en 2011, à Gdansk en 2018, à Abou Dhabi en 2019 et à Prague en 2023. Il ne faut pas oublier non plus les grands efforts déployés par Mme Fournier afin d’encourager le partage et la diffusion des connaissances. Autant auprès des jeunes professionnels que de ceux d’expérience, elle a su capter l’intérêt de ses pairs dans les différents travaux de l’Association en plus de coordonner la participation des différents experts dans les comités techniques. Elle s’est aussi grandement impliquée dans la préparation des rapports techniques et des guides produits, en plus d’être l’une des bâtisseuses à l’origine de la création du Bulletin PIARC-Québec. Publié pour la première fois en 2002, ce bulletin est inséré annuellement dans la revue «Routes et Transports» de l’Association québécoise des transports. Félicitations, Mme Fournier, pour votre longue carrière et pour cette nomination bien méritée!
