Abstract:

This issue contains 9 papers concerned with highway safety performance. Specific topics are as follows: the use of Monte Carlo simulation for a sensitivity analysis of Highway Safety Manual calibration factors; a variable speed limit control strategy with collision probability assessments based on traffic state prediction; the safety effects of signal improvements; customization of the Highway Safety Manual for Virginia; and injury severity in crashes on ramps and at crossroad ramp terminals. In addition, the issue covers these topics: the safety effect of pavement condition on rural, two-lane highways; a safety evaluation of hybrid main-line toll plazas; transferability of the Highway Safety Manual freeway model to the Italian motorway network; and the development of safety performance functions for freeways by considering interaction between speed limit and geometric variables.
