Investigators:
  Y. Ouyang (Primary)
Project Title:
  Develop Safety Performance Functions (SPF) for Illinois
Start Date: 1/1/2007
End Date: 12/31/2008
Summary of Project:
  Using descriptive and advanced statistical techniques, this study will provide analytical tools for IDOT to identify and manage a program of site-specific, and systematic improvements to develop strategies to reduce fatalities and severe injuries resulting from motor vehicle crashes.
Objective of Project:
  The SPF models developed from this study will be directly used to screen for candidate locations in the Illinois roadway network for safety improvements. The multivariate statistical models will help IDOT to develop comprehensive strategies to reduce motor vehicle crashes.
Expected Outcome:
  Develop SPF models that will be used to screen for candidate locations in Illinois for safety improvements.
