The purpose of this project is to better understand how the Safe System approach can be applied to urban arterial roads, balancing the demands of efficiency with safety for all road users. Urban arterial roads and intersections account for a large proportion of high-severity crashes, particularly among active (vulnerable) road users. There is considerable knowledge of individual safety elements such as midblock pedestrian facilities, but there are few examples of how to apply a coordinated Safe System approach to an entire corridor or sub-network to improve safety outcomes while maintaining the mobility demand.
