Download or read book Transport Planning and Traffic Safety written by Geetam Tiwari and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-09-03 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recognition of the importance of road safety as a major health issue, the World Health Organization has declared 2011-2021 the Decade of Safety Action. Several countries in Europe, North America, and Asia have been successful in reducing fatalities and injuries due to road traffic crashes. However, many low-income countries continue to experience high rates of traffic fatalities and injuries. Transport Planning and Traffic Safety: Making Cities, Roads, and Vehicles Safer offers a source book for road safety training courses as well as an introductory textbook for graduate-level courses on road safety taught in engineering institutes. It brings together the international experiences and lessons learned from countries which have been successful in reducing traffic crashes and their applicability in low-income countries. The content is based on lectures delivered during an international course on transportation planning and traffic safety, sponsored annually by the Transportation Research and Injury Prevention Programme (TRIPP) at the Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi. The book is interdisciplinary and aimed at professionals—traffic and road engineers, vehicle designers, law enforcers, and transport planners. The authors examine trends in performance of OECD countries and highlight the public health and systems approach of traffic safety with the vulnerable road user in focus. Topics include land use (transportation planning, mobility, and safety), safety education and legislation, accident analysis, road safety research, human tolerance to injury, vehicle design, safety in construction zones, safety in urban areas, traffic calming, public transportation, safety laws and policies, and pre-hospital care of the injured.

Book excerpt: To improve the safety at school bus stops, the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) conducted a study to identify available technologies or methods that could actively warn motorists of the presence of a school bus at an upcoming school bus stop. A scan of the current practice found that all States use static School Bus Stop Ahead signs similar to Ohio. The literature search reviewed current practices and research within the transportation industry as well as other relevant industries (e.g., construction, mining) and identified 13 potential technologies for use as a sensor, and 4 types of warning devices. Two approaches were taken to evaluate the potential solutions: cost-benefits analysis and benefits assessment. This combined approach found that a Bluetooth-based system using flashing beacons to warn drivers of an upcoming school bus stop was the recommended solution for a pilot test. This system will have low capital costs, is limited in complexity, and will be simple and inexpensive to operate and maintain for the school district.

Book excerpt: Provides updated information to the 1984 United States Department of Transportation (U.S. DOT) report entitled Bus Service Evaluation Methods: A Review, however, the results are not directly comparable as the respondents, questions asked, and analytical procedures differ in the 1994 synthesis. It does report what agencies do in the area of bus route, not system, evaluation standards, and how they undertake these efforts.

This book was released on 2004 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This project focussed on the issue of pedestrian safety devices for school buses. A previous phase provided a better understanding of the risks children are exposed to when getting on or off a school bus, and resulted in the development of an evaluation tool to determine the advantages of advanced pedestrian detection systems (APDS) for school buses.The purpose of this project was to review and validate the assessment criteria for APDS use around school buses defined in the previous phase, and to develop testing protocols that can be used at a later date when specific devices have been chosen for testing.The main tools validated and/or developed for this project were:; a fault tree to identify and quantify the risk that a child will be struck by the school bus;; broad categories of criteria comprising risk factors of the same type, weighted proportionally to their value in preventing an accident;; a theoretical evaluation grid to quantify the performance of detection devices. Laboratory, closed-track and road testing procedures were also developed. The proposed laboratory testing procedure emphasized the difficulty of devising universal tests for all types of safety devices. The report also contains a user's guide to facilitate use of the evaluation grid.

Download or read book A Computer-aided Method of Planning School Bus Routes written by Joseph P. Lowry and published by . This book was released on 1969 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A time-sharing computer package was developed to assist local administrators in planning school bus routes. Data about the students and roads in the district is first collected and coded. The planner then suggests and inputs one set of possible bus routes. The program computes various parameters of this system such as the number of students on each bus, the travel time and the number of miles driven while loaded and while unloaded, the longest and average times spent by students on each bus, and a representative cost of the route. These values are also added together to evaluate the entire system. After examining these results, the planner can easily change any number of routes, run the program again, and see the consequences of his alterations. Many alternative systems could be tried in a short period of time, and the most desirable one selected for implementation. A small model was set up and tested. The process is general and could be used by almost any district. Minor adjustments can easily be made to make the program more sensitive to local conditions and needs. In addition, both the student and road data could be expanded to permit additional use by the school and other local agencies. (Author).

This book was released on 1999 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report will be of interest to managers of public transportation and school bus systems, transportation planning and operations professionals, policy makers, and others interested in the potential for coordinating or integrating school bus and public transportation services in non-urban areas. The report identifies and discusses issues associated with such coordination or integration, and provides 13 case studies of communities that have successfully coordinated or integrated some aspect of school and public transportation services. The report also provides an implementation guide that suggests "next steps" for non-urban communities seeking to give serious consideration to the coordination or integration of school and public transportation services.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In consideration of the many challenges associated with Qatar's continued growth and demographic changes, the government of Qatar is interested in updating its school transportation system (STS). This volume assesses the perspectives of parents and school administrators on Qatar's STS, identifies a vision and goals for the STS, reviews international norms for school transportation, and discusses strategies to achieve the vision and better align Qatar's STS with international norms. The authors articulate four elements of a vision for Qatar's STS: Provide safe, efficient, and high-quality transportation for Qatar's students; support educational options by enabling mobility and access; provide a transportation experience that is supportive of Qatari values and culture; and minimize the impact on traffic congestion and the environment. The authors recommend 13 strategies to help achieve this vision, such as establishing clearly marked schools zones with standardized safety features and establishing standards for licensing and training bus drivers. The authors also provide a preliminary evaluation of several other strategies with less certain costs and benefits, such as changing the composition of the school bus fleet, implementing bus stops, and staggering school start times.
