Through a scoping review, this report identifies institutional decisionmaking and infrastructural risk factors. Then, it highlights noteworthy practices implemented by State, regional, and local transportation agencies and organizations across the country to address elements that contribute to pedestrian and bicyclist fatalities and serious injuries. Finally, it provides proven practices that agencies may implement to address them on the way to achieving the complimentary goals of zero deaths from traffic crashes; and safe, reliable, and affordable transportation for all people.

This report may be a useful resource for transportation professionals and other stakeholders interested in road safety to learn how to identify and implement strategies and tools to address differences in pedestrian and bicyclist safety and the expected benefits of these practices.
