An Analysis of The Effects of Installing Pedestrian Countdown Timers on the Incidence of Pedestrian Crashes in the City of Detroit Michigan

In large cities, pedestrians account for 40% to 50% of traffic fatalities. Previous studies based on relatively small samples have concluded that Pedestrian Countdown Timers can reduce pedestrian crashes at signalized intersections. The purpose of the present study was to examine the effect of Pedestrian Countdown Timer (PCT) on crashes in a large city with a long baseline and relatively patter...

Influence of Road Characteristics on Traffic Safety

The objective of this traffic safety investigation was to find critical road sections using Postand Preaccident analysis approaches. The Post-accident approach analyzes the effect of road geometric characteristics on accident rate. The study was based on accident and road maintenance data in Western Sweden. A total of 2912 accidents from 2000 to 2005 on 1615 km median-separated roads was collec...
