Abstract:

The objectives of this study were to: a) summarize past design exceptions to document their frequency and reason for their use and b) determine if any adverse safety implications can be related to adopting design policies and practices related to design exceptions.

The analysis showed that the design exception projects resulted in an improvement over the prior condition although some aspect of the design may not be typical. The reasons for the design exceptions have been well documented, and there is no evidence that construction of projects with a design exception had an adverse effect on highway safety.
