Abstract:Intersections represent one-quarter of all traffic fatalities and one-half of all traffic injuries. Each intersection project is an incremental opportunity to enhance safety and take one more step toward zero deaths and serious injuries on our Nation’s roads. Using a performance-based approach, Intersection Control Evaluation (ICE) is used to screen alternatives and identify optimal geometric and control solutions for an intersection. The goal of ICE is to help agencies make data-driven decisions when it comes to identifying and selecting strategies for intersection-related projects. By the end of 2019, 10 States had ICE policies and many more were developing ICE policies. Because ICE is a flexible and adaptable framework, specific policies and tools differ to allow each agency to best fit their program development and project delivery process. Some States have developed custom spreadsheet tools where users can input project specific information and facilitate consistent documentation of design selections.
