Book Description
This action plan addresses the short-term countermeasures and recommendations developed by safety professionals and practitioners from Federal, State, local and private sector organizations attending the Symposium on Effective Highway Accident Countermeasures, June 1990, Washington, D.C. It focuses on 11 priority short-term countermeasures deemed to have high payoff within the next two years. These are grouped under five categories: Pedestrian Safety Improvements; Driver Behavior and Performance; Roadway and Roadside Safety; Commercial Motor Vehicle Safety; and Corridor Safety Improvement Programs.

Book Description
The Symposium on Effective Highway Accident Countermeasures was held in Washington, D.C., on June 12-14, 1990. The Symposium was hosted by the Federal Highway Administration in cooperation with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The Symposium's objectives were to identify the most effective and practical short-term (within 2 years) countermeasures to highway accidents and to develop strategies for their implementation. The Symposium focused on five areas of highway safety: improving pedestrian safety, reducing accident severity, improving driver performance and control, improving commercial motor vehicle safety, and identifying and improving highway corridors. This publication summarizes the presentations and workshop reports.
Assessment of Techniques for Cost-effectiveness of Highway Accident Countermeasures

Category : Traffic safety
Languages : en
Pages : 356
Book Description
Improved cost-effectiveness techniques are developed for evaluating highway safety programs. These improved techniques include: better methods of determining accident costs; statistical procedures for calculating accident costs; consistent system for evaluating accident cost and countermeasure effectiveness; and improved incremental benefit-cost algorithm for ranking safety projects. In addition to developing improved cost-effectiveness techniques the report reviews selected accident countermeasure studies and provides a critique of current procedures for evaluating safety programs. Three techniques are recommended for use in allocating safety funds: incremental benefit-cost, with improved algorithm; dynamic programming; and integer programming.
