摘要: The objectives of this study are to (1) provide a comprehensive survey of infrastructure versus behavioral programs to improve highway safety, (2) develop procedures to estimate the cost effectiveness of infrastructure improvements versus behavioral programs on statewide accident reduction, (3) perform a cost effectiveness comparison of infrastructure versus behavioral programs, and (4) show how this comparative analysis can be used by the Colorado Department of Transportation to help determine an appropriate balance of statewide funding for these programs, since both strategies are needed to improve highway safety. In responding to the first objective, the purpose of this report is three-fold. First is to provide a statistical summary of information about the causes of traffic accidents and related factors. Second is to describe programs that have been implemented in this country to reduce traffic accidents by affecting drivers' behaviors or road conditions. Third is to provide a few recommendations as to how these mitigation programs might be improved and better focused on the high-risk driver groups and accident causes. As the authors continue to discover more relevant documents of safety program evaluations, they will continually update this review of literature to be included in the final project report.
