From 2006 to 2010, Thurston County, Washington experienced 177 fatal and serious injury crashes on the county’s road network, of which about 70 percent is rural. Similar to other local road networks, the crashes were not concentrated in specific locations. The County had been deploying many low-cost safety improvements such as signing, pavement markings, and rumble strips, but there were still sites where these solutions were not feasible. As a result, Thurston County sought another relatively low-cost and proven safety countermeasure with minimal physical impacts to the roadway and surrounding environment.
