Making our Communities Safer
If your transportation agency is interested in the most effective ways to reduce crashes, check out the CMF Clearinghouse. It's a searchable library of transportation treatments (aka. crash modification factors, or CMF) and their outcomes. Lighting, rail crossings, access management, and bicycle and pedestrian improvements are just a few of the treatments that agencies are implementing to decrease the number and severity of crashes. The clearinghouse provides a great look at their effectiveness in various settings. Visit the website, or check out these recorded webinars for more information.
