Abstract:Florida is among the top states in the U.S. regarding intersection-related traffic fatalities, and the Florida Strategic Highway Safety Plan (SHSP) identified intersection safety as one of the Emphasis Areas. The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) has developed an Intersection Control Evaluation (ICE) manual and conducted in classroom ICE trainings to promote intersection safety evaluation process. In-classroom training has several disadvantages, such as the limited class size due to venue capacity, pre-determined delivery schedules and locations, and associated travel and lodging cost to attendees. Computer-based trainings (CBTs) provide a good alternative to overcoming these limitations. Therefore, this project provided technical support through the Florida Local Technical Assistance Program (LTAP) on the development of the ICE CBT to meet the training needs of the statewide transportation workforce. In detail, based on the understanding on the ICE manual and existing in-person training materials, the project team developed an Instructional Media Design Package (IMDP) highlighting essential modules for the ICE CBT, and then developed the slide decks and video script for each training module/lesson after the IMDP was approved. Two main CBT sections were developed, where the Engineer/Manager Section provides a good understanding of the foundational ICE concepts, and the Analyst Section offers the details of ICE analysis procedure. The project team also coordinated with FDOT Organizational Development Office to make sure the final deliverables meet the requirement for CBT production. The final product of this project offers a self-pace workforce development approach on the ICE process for statewide transportation professionals.
