• Abstract:
  The objective of this Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) project was to determine the safety effectiveness of low- to medium-cost engineering countermeasures in reducing non-motorist (i.e., pedestrian) fatalities and injuries at controlled and uncontrolled intersections. The project started with a survey to identify the use of pedestrian treatments and preference for which treatments need a CMF. Using the survey findings, the FHWA stakeholder engagement working group set the research direction for investigating the relationship of intersection corner radius design with crashes and turning speed.
