| 摘要： | A practical approach to identifying street safety needs for local governments has been developed in this research. These governments are responsible for a large street mileage carrying relatively low traffic volumes. Improving safety on these streets is given only limited focus in most small cities. Due to the limited funding, manpower, and traffic engineering expertise available, traditional safety improvement programs are generally beyond the means of these agencies. An effective safety program needs to recognize the reality of local governments. A regional survey was conducted to examine the current methods and practices used by city traffic safety programs. Results from this survey were utilized in the development of the prototype Street Safety Audit procedure. A set of simple checklists covering fundamental intersection and traffic sign issues were also developed from this research. The Street Safety Audit procedure presented is a useful tool for small cities to begin addressing basic safety needs on their streets. |
