Abstract:

This study developed three instructional modules using data from several safety projects conducted at University of Florida. Module 1 is focused on qualitative aspects of rural road safety assessment and countermeasure selection. Module 2 is focused on performing benefit-cost analyses for safety projects. Module 3 is focused on calibration of Highway Safety Manual (HSM) equations. Each module contains power point presentations and supplemental material in the form of spreadsheets and word documents (available along with this report). This report itself is envisioned as an instructional guide for the use of the material provided in the modules. The availability of such processed real world data will enable students to perform a variety of calculations/analysis to learn the application of safety analysis methods. The products of this study would directly complement the existing textual descriptions of methods already available.
