Abstract:

RwD crashes remain a major emphasis area for Georgia. To address this crash type, one of the solutions Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) investigated and implemented is installing high friction surface treatment (HFST) at curves where roadway departure crashes have the greatest likelihood of occurring. In order to deploy the HFST treatments more efficiently and minimize the initial construction cost, GDOT tested a new approach using a market-ready curve safety assessment device that utilizes an electronic ball bank indicator traditionally used for setting safe speeds in curves. The ultimate goal is to deploy HFST more strategically and save lives.
