• Abstract:
  The objective of network screening should ideally be to not only identify sites for safety ; investigation but also to prioritize those sites efficiently. Using roadway, intersection, and ; collision data from California, this study compared the performance of methods based on the EB ; procedure, the LOSS method, and the Table C method. Two intersection types (rural four leg ; stop controlled and rural four leg signalized) and two roadway types (rural two lane roads and ; urban freeways) were included in the evaluation.
