Book Pedestrian Facilities Users Guide  Providing Safety and Mobility

Download or read book Pedestrian Facilities Users Guide Providing Safety and Mobility written by Charles V. Zegeer and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2002 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guide is intended to provide information on how to identify safety and mobility needs for pedestrians with the roadway right-of-way. Useful for engineers, planners, safety professionals and decision-makers, the guide covers such topics as: the Walking Environment including sidewalks, curb ramps, crosswalks, roadway lighting and pedestrian over and under passes; Roadway Design including bicycle lanes, roadway narrowing, reducing the number of lanes, one-way/two-way streets, right-turn slip lanes and raised medians; Intersections with roundabouts, T-intersections and median barriers; and Traffic calming designs.

  • Pages : 407 pages

Download or read book Roundabouts written by Lee August Rodegerdts and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 2010 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 672: Roundabouts: An Informational Guide - Second Edition explores the planning, design, construction, maintenance, and operation of roundabouts. The report also addresses issues that may be useful in helping to explain the trade-offs associated with roundabouts. This report updates the U.S. Federal Highway Administration's Roundabouts: An Informational Guide, based on experience gained in the United States since that guide was published in 2000.

Book Investigation of Exposure Based Pedestrian Accident Areas

Download or read book Investigation of Exposure Based Pedestrian Accident Areas written by and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Previous FHWA research on pedestrian exposure identified four problem areas as promising candidates for accident reduction: intersections without marked pedestrian crosswalks, major arterial streets, local streets, and locations lacking sidewalks or pedestrian pathways. This report describes the results of a project undertaken to examine those four problem areas. The objectives of the project were to: evaluate past research on pedestrian crosswalk markings and develop guidance for when and what type of crosswalk markings should be provided; investigate traffic engineering improvements for major arterial streets to increase pedestrian safety; investigate traffic engineering improvements for local streets to increase pedestrian safety; and examine existing guidance/warrants for the provision of pedestrian pathways and sidewalks and prepare revised guidance/warrants.

Book Guide for Reducing Collisions Involving Pedestrians

Download or read book Guide for Reducing Collisions Involving Pedestrians written by and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pedestrians are a part of every roadway environment and they also are significantly represented in death and injury statistics. Each year nearly 5,000 pedestrians are killed in traffic crashes and another 68,000 are injured. Pedestrians face a variety of challenges when they walk along and across streets with motor vehicles. Even though they are legitimate roadway users, they are frequently overlooked in the quest to build more-sophisticated transportation systems. Specific groups that do not or cannot drive{151}including children, the elderly, the disabled, and low-income populations{151}primarily depend on walking for transportation. In many communities these individuals constitute up to 30 percent of the population. Simply addressing one of the four {147}Es{148}{151}engineering, education, enforcement, and emergency medical services{151}in isolation, cannot solve many pedestrian problems. Engineering improvements coupled with enhanced safe behavior by pedestrians and motorists are needed to further reduce pedestrian fatalities.

  • Release : 2023-05-03
  • ISBN : 9240072497
  • Pages : 56 pages

Download or read book Pedestrian safety written by World Health Organization and published by World Health Organization. This book was released on 2023-05-03 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second edition of Pedestrian safety: a road safety manual for decision-makers and practitioners has updated the evidence on risk factors and interventions for pedestrian safety. The manual is aimed at policy-makers and road safety practitioners and draws on experience from countries that have succeeded in improving pedestrian safety. Pedestrian risk is increased when roadway design and land-use planning fail to provide facilities such as sidewalks, or adequate consideration of pedestrian access at intersections. There are several specific engineering measures that reduce pedestrian exposure to vehicular traffic and most involve separating pedestrians from vehicles or reducing traffic volume. Speed management is important for addressing pedestrian safety and involves much more than setting and enforcing appropriate speed limits. It deploys a range of engineering, enforcement and education measures in order to balance safety with efficient vehicle speeds on the road network. Road environment, legislation, and enforcement interventions – both alone and in combination with road user behaviour/education remedies –can improve pedestrian safety.
