Abstract:

The FHWA has identified and is promoting widespread use of a set of 20 Proven Safety Countermeasures that can offer significant, measurable impacts as part of any agency’s data-driven, systemic approach to improving safety. These strategies are designed to enhance safety on all kinds of roads—from rural to urban, from high-volume freeways to less traveled two-lane State and county roads, from signalized crossings to horizontal curves, and everything in between. Each countermeasure addresses intersections, roadway departures, or pedestrian/ bicyclist facilities—along with crosscutting strategies that address all three safety focus areas.
