The transportation sector has been fundamental in Colombia and faces serious consequences in terms of traffic accidents. This paper examines the relationship between accidentability and most outstanding road infrastructure factors in ten urban stretches of Neiva in the period 2017-2018, following the inclusion and exclusion criteria of the International Road Assessment Program (IRAP) for developing countries in order to characterize the state of road infrastructure of the selected points. The results showed that the central sections of the city tend to be related to the day, time, type of vehicle and victim, attribute and direction of the road. The motorcyclist was the road actor most vulnerable to injuries and fatalities, Saturday and 8:00 am was where more crashes occurred. The road infrastructure factors contributing to accidents highlight the relevance of the environment in the city.
