Book Synopsis Rectangular Rumble Strip Safety Evaluation by : Richard Storm
Download or read book Rectangular Rumble Strip Safety Evaluation written by Richard Storm and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This evaluation determined the change in crash frequency, type or severity associated with longitudinal rectangular rumble strips on rural two-lane undivided and rural four-lane divided Minnesota roadways constructed between 2012 and 2018. Crash Modification Factors (CMFs) were estimated using cross-sectional analysis to compare crash experience of locations with (i.e., centerline only, centerline + shoulder, or shoulder only) and without rectangular rumble strips. The cross-sectional analysis matched sites with and without rumble strips using matched-pair comparisons. Negative Binomial (NB) or Poisson log-linear regression models were used to model the crashes at all treatment and non-treatment sites. There was a total of approximately 1,200 miles of treated (i.e., centerline only, centerline + shoulder, or shoulder only) and untreated sites on rural two-lane roads and approximately 35 miles of treated (i.e., shoulder rumble strips) and untreated sites on rural four-lane divided roads. On rural two-lane undivided roads, the CMF for centerline + shoulder rumble strips was 0.73 for all crashes; shoulder only rumble strips had a CMF of 0.68 for all crashes. For single vehicle run-off-the-road crashes on rural two-lane highways, the CMF for rumble strips on the centerline + shoulder was 0.68; the CMF for shoulder only rumble strips was 0.76. The CMF for head-on, or opposite direction sideswipe crashes on rural two-lane roads with centerline and shoulder rumble strips was 0.64. On rural four-lane divided roads, the CMF for shoulder rumble strips for all crashes was 0.66 and 0.40 for single vehicle run-off-the-road crashes.
Book Synopsis Safety Impact Study of Centerline Rumble Strips in Georgia by : Jerome Ga Nok Sin
Download or read book Safety Impact Study of Centerline Rumble Strips in Georgia written by Jerome Ga Nok Sin and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within the last decade, centerline rumble strips have become increasingly prevalent as a safety countermeasure on undivided roadways throughout the United States. Within the state of Georgia, nearly 200 miles of centerline rumble strips have been installed in an effort to address the severity and frequency of crashes involving the centerline. With several thousands of miles of new installations throughout the nation in the last decade, much literature on this subject is still being amassed. This paper will compile and summarize existing literature in order to provide a thorough overview of the latest information from around the United States regarding the safety, usage, and impacts of centerline rumble strips. Furthermore, this paper seeks to comprehensively determine the safety impacts of centerline rumble strips on undivided, rural highway facilities in the state of Georgia. This portion of the study will prepare an updated inventory of centerline rumble strip installations in Georgia and perform a before-after study using three methods: a direct before-after analysis, a comparison before-after analysis, and a comparative analysis. These analyses will incorporate data from crash databases, police records, and traffic records to produce results unique to Georgia. Lastly, this paper will determine the current status of centerline rumble strips and the potential short- and long-term safety, physical, and unintended effects of centerline rumble strips both in the state of Georgia and throughout the United States through a survey sent to all fifty state transportation agencies. Through literature compilation, safety analyses, and findings on the effects of centerline rumble strips, this paper will aid in the future of centerline rumble strips within Georgia and the United States.
Book Synopsis Sinusoidal Rumble Strips Safety Evaluation by : Richard Storm

Book excerpt: This evaluation determined the change in crash frequency, type or severity associated with longitudinal sinusoidal rumble strips on rural two-lane undivided Minnesota roadways constructed between 2018 and 2022. Crash modification factors (CMFs) were estimated using cross-sectional analysis to compare crash experience of locations with sinusoidal rumble strips (i.e., centerline only, centerline and shoulder, or shoulder only) compared to roads with rectangular rumble strips. The cross-sectional analysis matched sites with sinusoidal and rectangular rumble strips using matched-pair comparisons. Negative binomial (NB) or Poisson log-linear regression models were used to model the crashes at all treatment and non-treatment sites. There was a total of approximately 327 miles of treated (i.e., centerline only, centerline and shoulder, or shoulder only sinusoidal rumble strips) and approximately 302 miles of untreated (i.e., centerline only, centerline and shoulder, or shoulder only rectangular rumble strips) on rural two-lane divided roads. Overall, the results of the models indicated no significant differences in crash rates between rural two-lane undivided roads with sinusoidal rumble strips, and rural two-lane undivided roads with rectangular rumble strips.
Book Synopsis Evaluation of Non-freeway Rumble Strips - Phase II by :
Download or read book Evaluation of Non-freeway Rumble Strips - Phase II written by and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: MDOT's rumble strip program for two-lane high speed rural highways was initiated in 2008 and continued through 2010. This program included implementation of centerline rumble strips (CLRS) on nearly 5,400 miles of two-lane high speed roads that MDOT maintains. This program presented an opportunity to perform a comprehensive evaluation of safety performance of rumble strips, especially CLRS. A two-phase evaluation study of the program was launched to estimate the driver behavioral and performance improvement in the presence of CLRS on two-lane high speed highways and also perform a system-wide "Before" and "After" study of target traffic crashes. The driver behavior-related study and collection of the three years' "Before" crash data and analysis was performed in Phase I (OR09084A) and the Phase II study was performed to collect the three years of "After" crash data, a program evaluation study, and benefit-cost analysis. The crash analysis indicated statistically significant reductions in all target crashes including, head-on, sideswipe opposite and run-off-the-road left. The study of crashes and their severity resulted in the reduction in fatal and all categories of injury crashes including a 47% reduction in total target crashes and a 51% reduction in target fatal crashes. An economic analysis of the rumble strip program resulted in a benefit-cost ratio of the program to be in the range of 58:1 to 18:1 based on discount rate assumptions of 2% and 10%, respectively. A road user survey indicated strong agreement among the respondents that CLRS is a beneficial safety improvement program.

Book Synopsis An Evaluation of Shoulder Rumble Strips in Montana by : Robert R. Marvin
Download or read book An Evaluation of Shoulder Rumble Strips in Montana written by Robert R. Marvin and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An evaluation of shoulder rumble strip's effectiveness in reducing off-road and rollover crashes on Montana's highway system utilized 10 years of crash data on 393 miles of Interstate Highways and 213 miles of National Highway System (NHS) and Primary Highways. Statistical analysis of crash data involved rumble strip segments and control segments without rumble strips for 3 year periods before and after implementation of shoulder rumble strips. Descriptive statistics were developed from global data sets and comparative statistics on equivalent segments produced a finding of significant crash reductions on Interstate Highways, while the effect of shoulder rumble strips on NHS and Primary Highways was uncertain due to an inadequate sample size. Analysis of contingency tables indicate that the reduction in Interstate off-road crash rates attributable to shoulder rumble strips was 14.0% with a corresponding reduction of 23.5% in severity rates. The benefit/cost ratio for construction of shoulder rumble strips on Interstate highways was 19.5. A shoulder rumble strip driver survey involving questions related to knowledge of rumble strips, frequency of encounters, reaction to exposure, and general opinions on their use was incorporated as part of the study. The survey indicated that 95% of the driving public was familiar with rumble strips and their use with the majority of drivers encountering rumble strips on every highway trip. The overwhelming majority of motorists liked the benefits that shoulder rumble strips provide.
