Abstract:

Pedestrian fatalities in the United States increased 48 percent between 2009 (n=4,109) and 2017 (n=6,080). This is particularly alarming after so many years of decreasing pedestrian fatalities nationwide since the early 1970s. Many explanations have been stated for why this increase has occurred. This project was intended to explore some of the possible underlying factors associated with this alarming increase in pedestrian fatalities. The project first convened a diverse group of cross-sector experts and examined available data sources to explore the underlying and complex factors influencing the national rise in pedestrian deaths. These efforts supported the development of dynamic, testable hypotheses to inform a future research agenda.
