• Abstract:
  In response to growing concerns regarding the safety of vulnerable road users at intersections, the U.S. Department of Transportation launched the Intersection Safety Challenge in Spring 2023 with the vision to transform intersection safety through the development of innovative intersection safety systems that can identify, predict, and mitigate unsafe conditions involving vehicles and vulnerable road users in real time. The Challenge began with Stage 1, which had two substages—Stage 1A: Concept Assessment and Stage 1B: System Assessment and Virtual Testing. For Stage 1A, participants submitted design concepts for their proposed systems. The U.S. Department of Transportation received 120 innovative concept papers and selected 15 for prize awards. The 15 winners of Stage 1A were invited to participate in the Stage 1B Primary Track data science competition using multi-sensor data collected at the Turner- Fairbank Highway Research Center Smart Intersection facility.
