Pg 3-4 to 3-10: NCHRP Report 600: Human Factors Guidelines for Road Systems

TRB’s National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 600: Human Factors Guidelines for Road Systems: Second Edition provides data and insights of the extent to which road users’ needs, capabilities, and limitations are influenced by the effects of age, visual demands, cognition, and influence of expectancies. NCHRP Report 600 provides guidance for roadway location elements and traffic engineering elements. The report also provides tutorials on special design topics, an index, and a glossary of technical terms.

Pg 85-87: Systemic Safety Project Selection Tool

The Systemic Safety Project Selection Tool presents a process for incorporating systemic safety planning into traditional safety management processes. The Systemic Tool provides a step-by-step process for conducting systemic safety analysis;considerations for determining a reasonable distribution between the implementation of spot safety improvements and systemic safety improvements;and a mechanism for quantifying the benefits of safety improvements implemented through a systemic approach.

Pg 45-51 : The Pedestrian and Bicyclist Highway Safety Problem As It Relates to the Hispanic Population in the United States

The overall goal of the Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA) Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety Research Program is to increase pedestrian and bicycle safety and mobility.
The following document describes the level of involvement of Hispanics in pedestrian and bicycle crashes.
Possible approaches for local pedestrian and bicycle safety programs targeting Hispanics are presented.
The results of this research will be useful to transportation researchers, engineers, planners and safety professionals involved in improving pedestrian and bicyclist safety and mobility.
