Improve Understanding of the Benefits of Safety Data-driven Decision Making

This study will partner with the agencies participating in Evaluation of Low-Cost Safety Improvements Pooled Fund Study to do the following: (1) evaluate the safety effectiveness of unproven safety countermeasures and to identify and address methodological issues with the development, application, and assessment of crash modification factors (CMFs); (2) Maintain the CMF Clearinghouse and continue to make enhancements for our stakeholders; (3) CMF development for mini-roundabouts; (4) CMF development for wrong-way driving countermeasures; (5) CMF development of bike lane configurations for segments and at intersections; and (6) Continue to improve and update FHWA’s Safety Data Dashboard. This resource converts large and complex datasets into graphical displays that aid in reviewing data trends and making comparisons.
