Abstract:

The systemic approach to safety is a risk-based approach to safety in which the system is screened for systemic risk and sites are prioritized based on the risk of a high-severity collision, as opposed to a history of crashes. The systemic approach is especially useful for low-volume local roads where little or no data may be readily available, and the risk of a severe crash is ever present despite the lack of crash history. Because of those situations where the systemic approach can be useful, Boone County, Kentucky used it to prioritize roadway safety improvements.
