Abstract:The primary objectives of this project were to evaluate the safety and mobility conditions along the I-4 corridor from Orlando to Tampa as a part of Interstate 4 (I-4) Florida’s Regional Advanced Mobility Elements’ (FRAME) integrated corridor management (ICM). Since UCF’s main role will be to identify safety challenges on the project corridors and document how the I-4 FRAME project will address these challenges, this report has mainly focused on the corridor level and segment level analyses for freeways, and intersection and segment level analyses for arterials. For safety analyses, crash data are collected from the Signal Four Analytics (S4A) and State Safety Office Geographic Information System (SSOGIS) to ensure the maximum coverage of the crash information. During this crash data collection, crash numbers, crash types, different crash severities, work zone-related crashes, and weather information were collected and analyzed. From the perspectives of the crash rates, different crash types, and crash severities, the main safety challenges on the intersections and segments were identified. For mobility analyses, traffic data were collected and analyzed using Microwave Vehicle Detection System (MVDS) and National Performance Management Research Data Set (NPMRDS) data sources. Average travel time and speed and travel time reliability measures were used to analyze the mobility conditions of the studied area. Extensive analyses for safety and mobility evaluation have been performed and possible justification of such findings have been added. This study summarizes the overall safety and mobility evaluation before the new technologies are implemented and will be used to compare with safety and mobility issues after the technologies are implemented.
