Evaluate the Results of FHWA Safety Implementation efforts

This study will apply a Safe Systems Approach framework to address intersection crashes. The objective is a national strategy for improving intersection design and safety. Partners could include State DOTs and other transportation agencies. The study will do the following: (1) Demonstrate crash reduction potential of the network-level pavement friction measurement on a continuous rather than sampling basis; (2) Partner with State DOTs to collect and correlate friction and crash data at high-risk locations for roadway departure, intersection, and pedestrian crashes; and (3) Partner with State DOTs to collect and correlate friction and crash data at high-risk locations for roadway departure, intersection, and pedestrian crashes.
