In 2019 the City of Austin Transportation Department (ATD) implemented Leading Pedestrian Intervals (LPIs) at 110 intersections in the Austin central business district to improve pedestrian safety in the City’s most active pedestrian environment. The effort required collaboration between ATD Vision Zero Program staff, traffic signal engineers, and

The Weekly Traffic Volume Report estimates the vehicle miles traveled (VMT) for interstate highways and how the total travel measured by VMT compares with travel that occurred in the same week of the previous year. The VMT is further split into passenger vehicle and truck components. The information gives new insights into the effect on traffic by

Arlington County, Virginia has developed a program for widespread implementation of Rectangular Rapid-Flashing Beacons (RRFBs) in an effort to improve pedestrian safety and increase driver yielding behavior at crosswalks throughout the County. To maximize the safety benefits of the RRFBs, the County has developed a data collection and evaluation pr

Raised crosswalks reduce vehicle speeds, promote driver yielding, and enhance the conspicuity of uncontrolled pedestrian crossings. They can also reduce pedestrian crashes up to 45 percent. However, agencies may have concerns about addressing winter maintenance, drainage effects, and emergency and transit vehicle routing when implementing raised cr

While Seattle’s population continues to grow, the number of overall traffic-related fatalities continues to trend downward. However, pedestrian and cyclist crashes have remained relatively steady. To meet the growing demand while improving safety, the City developed the Bicycle and Pedestrian Safety Analysis (BPSA), a robust approach to modeling pe

Inertial profilers can produce valid measurements of longitudinal road profile when they are operated under favorable conditions. However, their performance deteriorates when the host vehicle travels at low speed, decelerates, or comes to a stop. These limitations have hindered the application of inertial profilers for measurement of roughness on l

Traffic Volume Trends is a monthly report based on hourly traffic count data reported by the States. These data are collected at approximately 5,000 continuous traffic counting locations nationwide and are used to estimate the percent change in traffic for the current month compared with the same month in the previous year. Estimates are re-adjuste

Methods for modeling freight demand and goods movement in the United States (U.S.) are evolving from aggregated methods to disaggregated methods. Emerging technologies are providing opportunities for more efficient data collection and new data collection that support more advanced freight modeling, analysis and data development environments. An imp

Addition of ground tire rubber (GTR) to asphalt binder and mixture is an accepted asphalt mixture practice in asphalt production that consumes about 12 percent of the total GTR market today. Modification of asphalt binders with GTR is well established and can provide high performance pavements that aid in reduction of the number of waste tires disp

Recent data show that the greatest proportion of pedestrian fatalities occurs at non-intersection locations, where physical and electronic infrastructure required to support dynamic safety treatments are less common. To address this gap, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and Intelligent Transportation Systems Joint Program Office (ITS JPO)
