Abstract:

The objectives of this research project are to (1) quantify the relationship between pavement surface friction characteristics, traffic accident rates, and any other factor(s) deemed important and (2) determine and recommend critical threshold levels below which crash rates would significantly increase. Following a literature review and gap analysis on FDOT’s existing practice, a statistical relationship was developed between Florida’s crash rates, pavement friction and texture characteristics, as well as other pavement-related data. A number of preliminary analyses have been conducted in regards to crash, friction, and traffic distributions for determining the friction demand categories. The new statistical model was accompanied by a reliability-risk analysis for determining the recommended levels of friction. Furthermore, recommendations on FDOT’s Friction Guidelines, Friction Course Policy, and Safety Analysis Practice were developed and documented.
