Additional Characteristics of Crashes on Rural Two-lane Highways
Author: Kay FitzpatrickPublisher:
ISBN:
Category : Low-volume roads
Languages : en
Pages : 80
Book Description
This report provides information on year 2 activities for Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) Project 0-4048 including: characteristics of animal crashes and potential treatments; additional insight into characteristics of crashes on low-volume, rural two-lane highways using information provided by officers in their crash narratives; a methodology for conducting before-and-after studies; and findings for before-and-after evaluations performed at four sites. Approximately 3800 animal crashes occurred on Texas on-system, rural highways in 1999. The before-and-after methodology used in this project involves a 16-step process in which researchers gathered, reduced, and analyzed information on site characteristics, crash and volume history, and improvement details.

Category : Infrastructure (Economics)
Languages : en
Pages : 103
Book Description
"TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) 756: Highway Safety Research Agenda: Infrastructure and Operations develops a proposed agenda of prioritized safety research needs in the area of highway infrastructure and operations. The report provides options to the U.S. transportation community on how to direct research to the areas where it can provide the most benefit. The agenda is based on a prioritization methodology developed by the research team which can be applied on a recurring basis to update the agenda over time. Both the agenda and the methodology documented in this report will assist government officials, private sector employees, and academics with managing highway safety research. In addition to the report, 16 unpublished appendices (Appendices A-O and R) have been made available electronically."--Publisher description.
