Pedestrian Refuge Island: Pedestrian Refuge Island
n/a
To better understand the different ways in which communities are improving their pedestrian and bicycle networks, Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Division Offices gathered and compiled examples of pedestrian and bicycle network improvement projects initiated by state departments of transportation (DOTs), metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs), counties, cities, and other local entities.
A crash modification factor (CMF) is a multiplicative factor used to compute the expected number of crashes after implementing a given countermeasure at a specific site. The Crash Modification Factors Clearinghouse houses a Web-based database of CMFs along with supporting documentation to help transportation engineers identify the most appropriate countermeasure for their safety needs. Using this site, you can search to find CMFs or submit your own CMFs to be included in the clearinghouse.

The Federal Highway Administration's Pedestrian Safety Campaign was developed in 2003 and consists of ready-made outreach materials that States and communities can customize and use locally. The Campaign materials have been used in over 400 communities nationwide, and we no longer have hard copy materials available. Everything that was included in the Pedestrian Safety Campaign Planner is available here for download and use.
