The criteria will help in the development of “Pedestrian Safety Program”, as a part of the Nevada Department of Transportation’s (NDOT) Federal Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP). The developed criteria will assist the system managers not only in Las Vegas and Nevada, but also nationally, in better understanding the cause of the crashes and identifying appropriate operating strategies to enhance pedestrian safety. |
