Abstract:Highway safety is an ongoing concern to the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT). As part of its
proactive commitment to improving highway safety, TxDOT is moving toward including quantitative safety
analyses earlier in the project development process. The objectives of this research project are: (1) the
development of safety design guidelines and evaluation tools to be used by TxDOT designers, and (2) the
production of a plan for the incorporation of these guidelines and tools in the planning and design stages of
the project development process.
This document summarizes the research that was conducted and the products that were developed during this
six-year research project. It also describes a plan to incorporate safety design guidelines and evaluation tools
into the project development process. It is intended for use by engineers responsible for the planning and
design of streets and highways.
