This paper aims to describe how the modified TRA methodology is used for predicting the accident scenarios and their impact to humans and environment. The analytical technique was applied to a case study of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) by road tankers. The transportation of LPG via five existing routes was studied in detail, and the corresponding societal risk were evaluated and compared. © 2011 IEEE. date: 2011 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84857089749&doi=10.1109%2fNatPC.2011.6136284&partnerID=40&md5=3008fbd6e9c9dfb0d857f93bdcdc211e id_number: 10.1109/NatPC.2011.6136284 full_text_status: none publication: 2011 National Postgraduate Conference - Energy and Sustainability: Exploring the Innovative Minds, NPC 2011 place_of_pub: Perak refereed: TRUE isbn: 9781457718847 citation: Rashid, Z.A. and El-Harbawi, M. and Sherif, A.A. and Shariff, A.R.
