Abstract:The current study was conducted along the entire Interstate 70 to investigate how median slopes influence guard cable
effectiveness. It was found out that the success rates for guard cables installed on both steeper and flatter slopes are high. Median
slope does not solely affect guard cable effectiveness. Factors such as vehicle type, roadway horizontal and vertical alignment,
and guard cable horizontal distance, do not solely contribute to the effectiveness of guard cable either. The inclusion of crash
related data such as vehicle speed and collision angle could make it possible to get a more complete capture of guard cable
performance. However, that data is not available at this time.
