Assessing the Effects of Snow and Ice Control Operations: The Interdependency between Weather Variables, Maintenance Operations, Pavement Friction, and Collisions
DownloadFall 2021
An effective winter road maintenance (WRM) program is essential for cities that face severe winter conditions. Snowstorms create slippery road surface conditions (RSC) that disrupt traffic flows and endanger motorists. To combat this, municipalities use a variety of tools to improve the driving...

Performance-Based Assessment of Road Design Elements using LiDAR Technology: Towards Adopting a Safe System Approach
DownloadSpring 2019
The adoption of a safe system approach is seen by many as a critical element to achieving the aims of vision zero (i.e., eliminating fatalities and serious injuries on roads). Unlike in traditional approaches, in a safe system approach it is acknowledged that road users are humans who are prone...
