  • Abstract:
    The Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) formed a panel of experts from federal, state and local governments, as well as academia and the private sector, to share knowledge and experiences in addressing red-light running using engineering countermeasures. In addition, a process was established to collect information and survey practicing engineers to collect the broadest information possible on the topic. The end result was a toolbox that identifies engineering features at an intersection that should be considered to discourage red-light running. Making Intersections Safer: A Toolbox of Engineering Countermeasures to Reduce Red-Light Running addresses design and operational features that may need to be upgraded as necessary. It provides a background of the characteristics of the red-light running problem; identifies how various engineering measures can be implemented to address this problem; suggests a procedure for selecting the appropriate engineering measures and provides guidance on when enforcement, including red light cameras, may be appropriate. The engineering features presented in the report are categorized according to the type of problem they address. The expected benefits of various countermeasures in terms of reduced red-light running violations or crashes are presented where data are available. Other countermeasures are presented when there is substantial confidence in their effects. References, figures, tables, 74 p.
