TRB’s Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board 1897 presents research on the development of accident prediction models for rural highway intersections; the use of logistic regression to predict the severity of median-related crashes in Pennsylvania; the marginal impacts of design, traffic, weather, and related interactions on roadside crashes; and on the evaluation and validation of an automated in-vehicle data collection system for developing roadway alignments. This TRR: Journal volume also contains the D. Grant Mickle Award-winning paper on operation, safety, and maintenance of transportation facilities, “Safety Effects of Narrow Lanes and Shoulder-Use Lanes to Increase Capacity of Urban Freeways,” by Karin Bauer, Douglas Harwood, and Karen Richard of Midwest Research Institute and Warren Hughes of BMI-SG. The papers contained in this volume were among those presented at the 83rd Annual Meeting of the Transportation Research Board in January 2004.
