Abstract

This guide supplements a report entitled, "Making Intersections Safer: A Toolbox of Engineering Countermeasures to Reduce Red-Light Running," which addresses design and operational features that may need to be upgraded or modified to discourage red-light running. This field guide provides more details on how to conduct a site investigation of a specific intersection that has been identified as a red-light running problem site. The purpose of a field site review is to identify any engineering design or operational deficiencies that may contribute to red-light running and the resulting crashes and to form initial opinions as to possible countermeasures. (Author/publisher) This is the companion document to the report, Making Intersections Safer: A Toolbox of Engineering Countermeasures to Reduce Red-Light Running, http://safety.fhwa.dot.gov/intersections/docs/rlrbook.pdf
