摘要: The purpose of this study was to identify and implement a comprehensive countermeasure program that could reduce deaths and injuries among pedestrians in a large urban environment. Miami-Dade County, Florida, was selected as the focus of this study. Using pedestrian crash data from 1996 to 2001, four zones were identified within the county as having abnormally high pedestrian-crash experiences. Based on locational crash characteristics, as well as pedestrian (age, ethnicity) factors, a total of 16 different types of education, enforcement, and engineering treatments were selected and targeted to reduce pedestrian crashes specifically in the four zones, and also countywide. A before-after study was used with three separate control groups to evaluate the effects of the combined pedestrian safety program on pedestrian crashes. A three-year after period was used (2002-2004). Multivariate intervention autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) time series analysis was used, along with nonparametric (i.e., Mann-Whitney U-tests) to test for statistically significant differences in pedestrian crash experiences. A number of lessons learned were identified for future implementation of such a program.
