Abstract:

Roadside design improvement at curves is a strategy encompassing several treatments that target the high-risk roadside environment along the outside of horizontal curves. These treatments prevent roadway departure fatalities by giving vehicles the opportunity to recover safely and by reducing crash severity. Roadside design improvements can be implemented alone or in combination and are particularly recommended at horizontal curves–where data indicates a higher-risk for roadway departure fatalities–and where cost effectiveness can be maximized.
