The study uses an Collision Modification Function (CMF) method proposed by Neuman and Glennon (TRB Report 923) to predict the collision rate associated with a 60 km/h vertical curve design as opposed to a 70 km/h vertical curve. A second, entirely different method, using Conflict Analysis, is developed and used to verify the results from the CMF method. For the covering abstract of the conference see ITRD number E211271.
