• Abstract:
  This project contributes to the Washington State Strategic Highway Safety Plan, whose goals are ; to achieve zero road fatality and serious injury by 2030 and to reduce the number of pedestrians ; and bicyclists involved in motor-vehicle collisions on state highways. The study focused on ; “main street highways” (MSHs), which are stretches of State Routes that also act as main streets ; for the local populations. This report covers Part I of this study, which collected an inventory of ; collision data in Washington state from 2001 to 2012. The project tallied those collisions that had ; been geocoded, and the report describes the various methods used for geocoding. More than 90 ; percent of the collisions had been geocoded for 2010, 2011, and 2012, but only pedestrian and ; bicyclist collisions had been geocoded for the years between 2001 and 2009.
