The purpose of this report is to provide an overview of research studies on pedestrian safety in the United States;some foreign research also is included. Readers will find details of pedestrian crash characteristics, measures of pedestrian exposure and hazard, and specific roadway features and their effects on pedestrian safety.

The goals of the program are to deploy and evaluate countermeasures (that were identified and developed in Phase 1) to help improve pedestrian safety and walkability (and reduce/minimize risk). The intent of this program is to serve as an example of what would lead to the implementation of successful pedestrian safety countermeasures across the nation. Some of the countermeasures deployed in Phase 2 have been selected in consultation with Florida (Miami-Dade County) team and San Francisco team.

This document contains a series of Issue Briefs on various intersection safety-related topics. This is the Second Edition of these briefs. The target audience for the Issue Briefs consists of traffic engineers and transportation and safety professionals. Many products have developed over the past two years that will help practitioners evaluate causes of intersection crashes and potential solutions. The Issue Briefs provide practitioners with a substantial number of references and resources for subsequent review and consideration.
This guide assists State or local transportation or traffic safety departments that are considering developing a policy or guide to support the installation of countermeasures at uncontrolled pedestrian crossing locations. This document provides guidance to agencies, including best practices for each step involved in selecting countermeasures. By focusing on uncontrolled crossing locations, agencies can address a significant national safety problem and improve quality of life for pedestrians of all ages and abilities.
