Speaking

With rising pedestrian fatalities, identifying cost-effective solutions to reduce crashes is critical. This presentation presents two case studies. By using MioVision cameras to capture pedestrian movements, the City of Columbus, Ohio, identified low-cost site-specific improvements in their pilot downtown crosswalk study program. The City of Dayton, Ohio, identified a 4-mile-long corridor with high pedestrian crashes for a corridor-wide improvement, using road repurposing to keep costs low while addressing traffic speeds and pedestrian crossing lengths. Additionally, this presentation will share ideas on funding low-cost solutions.
