  • Trade-offs between geometric design standards and safety for low volume roads

    Creator:
    Kornsombut, Aram
    Abstract:
    Geometric design standards have not been developed specifically for low volume roads. Design standards and criteria are extrapolated from higher standard roadways that are often not relevant to low volume roads. Safety is a primary criterion used for selection of design standards along with economic, financial, social and environment factors....

  • Computerized safety analysis technique for secondary highways

    Creator:
    Nichols, Kevin Scott
    Abstract:
    Evaluation of the safety hazards along a highway is usually performed at specific locations and on known hazards. But, it is also important to find any unrecognized hazards and their locations. Many factors contribute to accident potential, and the combined effect of several of them could produce a hazard that...

  • A method for programming maintenance on paved forest roads

    Creator:
    Chastain, Edward Oran
    Abstract:
    The development of a pavement management system for low-volume roads is a difficult task. There are many interrelated activities that must be considered, such as planning, design, construction, maintenance, and pavement evaluation. This paper addresses the evaluation and maintenance components of a pavement management system for low-volume roadways and provides...
