18 HSM Module 3: Crash Modification Factors Sample Problem 3-1: Effectiveness of treatments on two-lane rural highway segment Brief Description of the Project/Case This analysis of a roadway segment involves County Road 63. The segment under review extends from CR 637 to CR 345. The roadway is a two-lane facility in a rural setting. Currently, the roadway segment consists of 12 lanes with 4 paved shoulders. What will be the likely change in expected run-off-the-road crashes and total crashes if the County narrows the lane widths to 11 and widens the shoulder widths to 5? The 2008 traffic count indicates that the average annual daily traffic (AADT) for the segment was 4,494 vehicles per day. Table 3-1 summarizes the crash history for the segment. Table 3-1. Crash History for Segment Year Run-off-the-road, headon, and sideswipe Total segment crashes crashes Total 33 (11.00 per year, 53.2% of total crashes) 62 (20.67 per year) Step 1. Calculate the existing CMF for 12 lanes Student Notes Sample Problem

19 HSM Module 3: Crash Modification Factors To adjust the lane width CMF for total crash assessment (based on proportion of crashes), use HSM Equation 13-3, p Run-off-the-road, Head-on, & Total Crashes Sideswipe Crashes CMF = 1.00 (per Table 13-2) CMF = ( ) x (per Equation 13-3) CMF = 1.00 Step 2. Calculate the CMF for proposed 11 lanes Run-off-the-road, Head-on, & Total Crashes Sideswipe Crashes CMF = 1.05 (per Table 13-2) CMF = ( ) x (per Equation 13-3) CMF = Step 3. Calculate the treatment corresponding to the change in lane width for runoff-the-road crashes and total crashes Run-off-the-road, Head-on, & Total Crashes Sideswipe Crashes CMF Treatment = = 1.05 CMF Treatment = = Step 4. Apply the treatment CMF to the expected number of crashes Run-off-the-road, Head-on, & Total Crashes Sideswipe Crashes For lane width CMFs - use Table 13-2, p of the HSM. The percentage of run-off-the-road, head-on, and sideswipe crashes is 53.2% per Table 3-1 of this sample problem. (If local crash type % values are unknown, HSM Table 10-6 provides defaults.) CMF Treatment = CMF 11 lane CMF 12 lane Where CMFfor 11 from Step 2 CMFfor 12 from Step 1 Use results from Step 3 and Table = crashes/year = crashes/year Step 5. Change in expected crashes due to proposed lane width changes Run-off-the-road, Head-on, & Total Crashes Sideswipe Crashes = 0.55 crashes/year (So an increase of 0.55 crashes/year) = 0.56 crashes/year (So an increase of 0.56 crashes/year) Use results from Step 4 and Table 3-1 Step 6. Calculate the existing CMF for 4 paved shoulders To adjust the paved shoulder width CMF for total crash assessment (based on proportion of crashes), use HSM Equation 13-3, p Run-off-the-road, Head-on, & Total Crashes Sideswipe Crashes CMF = 1.15 (per Table 13-7) CMF = ( ) x (per Equation 13-3) CMF = 1.08 For paved shoulder width CMFs - use Table 13-7, p of the HSM. The percentage of run-off-theroad, head-on, and sideswipe crashes is 53.2% per Table 3-1. Step 7. Calculate the CMF for proposed 5 paved shoulders and 4,494 vpd Sample Problem

20 HSM Module 3: Crash Modification Factors Run-off-the-road, Head-on, & Total Crashes Sideswipe Crashes CMF = (per Table 13-7) CMF = ( ) x (per Equation 13-3) CMF = 1.04 Step 8. Calculate the treatment corresponding to the change in shoulder width for run-off-the-road crashes and total crashes Run-off-the-road, Head-on, & Total Crashes Sideswipe Crashes CMF Treatment = = CMF Treatment = = Step 9. Apply the treatment CMF to the expected number of crashes Run-off-the-road, Head-on, & Sideswipe Crashes Total Crashes CMF Treatment = CMF 5 shld CMF 4 shld Where CMFfor 5 from Step 7 CMFfor 4 from Step 6 Use results from Step 8 and Table = crashes/year = crashes/year Step 10. Calculate the change in crashes due to proposed shoulder width changes. Run-off-the-road, Head-on, & Total Crashes Sideswipe Crashes = crashes/year (So a decrease of 0.71 crashes/year) = crashes/year (So a decrease of 0.76 crashes/year) Use results from Step 9 and Table 3-1 Step 11. Total change in expected crashes due to lane and shoulder width changes Run-off-the-road, Head-on, & Sideswipe Crashes Crashes = = (So an overall decrease of 0.16 crashes/year) = expected crashes following treatment Total Crashes Crashes = = (So an overall decrease of 0.20 crashes/year ) = expected crashes following treatment Use results from Step 5 and Step 10 SUMMARY The proposed changes will slightly decrease the run-off-the-road, head-on, and sideswipe crashes as well as total crashes.

21 HSM Module 4: Predictive Method Process Sample Problem 4-1: Design Exception Case Study Brief Description of the Project/Case The intersection of a four-lane undivided rural highway with minor road (STOP-controlled) currently does not have turn lanes and the lane width and shoulder width adhere to AASHTO policies. Student Notes As a possible way of improving safety at the intersection, an agency is considering narrowing the paved lane and shoulder widths so that they can maintain existing right-of-way widths and potentially add left and/or right turn-lanes on the mainline approaches. Using the predictive methodologies included in the HSM Vol. 2 (Part C) Chapter 11: Multilane Rural Highways, evaluate the impact of the proposed alternative designs on expected crash frequency for the year Step 1 Identify data needs for the facility Existing Road (study segment length of 0.38 miles): Mainline (major road) AADT of 30,000 vpd in 2009 (assume does not change at intersection) 66 cross-section (4 lanes + 2 shlds) [Lane Widths = 12, Paved Shlds = 8 ] Design Speed = 50 mph No lighting or automated speed enforcement No turn lanes and no intersection skew Roadside slope = 1:7 Intersecting Highway (minor road) AADT of 5,000 vpd in 2009 (assume does not change at intersection) Lane Widths = 11, No Shoulders (graded or paved) Design Speed = 50 mph Proposed Design A : Mainline (major road) changes Lane Widths reduced from 12 to 11 (does not meet policy and so requires an exception) Shoulder widths reduced from 8 to 6 (does not meet policy and so requires an exception) Add left-turn lanes in each direction (10 wide, 500 in length) Sample Problem

22 HSM Module 4: Predictive Method Process Proposed Design B : Mainline (major road) changes Lane Widths reduced from 12 to 10 (does not meet policy) Shoulder widths reduced from 8 to 3 (does not meet policy) Add left-turn lanes and right-turn-lanes in each direction (10 wide, 500 in length) Step 2 Divide locations into homogeneous segments or intersections For this study, all alternatives apply to one intersection location so this can be perceived as a single homogeneous segment site and a single homogeneous intersection site. Step 3 Apply the appropriate SPF It is appropriate to compute the SPF values for segments and intersections and then add them together. Since this location has modifications that directly influence lane and shoulder widths (safety influences captured during segment analysis), it is important to include this step. N predicted = N spf (CMF 1x CMF 2x CMF yx ) C x For all designs, the same SPF will be used but some of the CMF values will change due to the various proposed designs. Since this location is consistent for all candidate designs, the calibration factor will be the same for all designs. Predicted Segment Crashes for Base Conditions: Using Equation 11-7, the segment SPF for base conditions can be determined as follows: N spf segment [a+b ln(aadt)+ ln(l)] = e Sample Problem

23 HSM Module 4: Predictive Method Process The variables are defined from Table 11-3 for the various severity levels: N spf total segment crashes = e [ ln(30,000)+ ln(0.38)] = 4.49 Predicted Intersection Crashes for Base Conditions: Using Equation 11-11, the intersection SPF for base conditions can be determined as follows: N spf = e [a+b ln(aadt maj)+c ln(aadt min )] The variables are defined from Table 11-7 for the various severity levels: N spf total = e [ ln(30,000) ln(5,000)] = int crashes Sample Problem

24 HSM Module 4: Predictive Method Process Step 4 Apply CMFs as needed Segment Base Conditions (Undivided Roadway): Lane Width = 12 Shoulder Width = 6 Shoulder Type = Paved Side Slopes = 1V:7H or flatter No lighting or automated speed enforcement CMFs will be needed for any conditions that do not meet these base conditions, so for the proposed designs the lane width and shoulder width CMF values are required. Lane Width CMF (applicable for run-off-road, head-on, & sideswipe): So, LW=11 has CMF RA=1.04, LW=10 has CMF RA=1.23 (related crashes) CMF 1ru = (CMF RA 1. 0) p RA For 11 lanes: CMF 1ru = ( ) = Sample Problem

25 HSM Module 4: Predictive Method Process For 10 lanes: CMF 1ru = ( ) = Shoulder Width CMF (applicable for run-off-road, head-on, & sideswipe): So, SW=8 has CMF WRA=0.87, LW=3 has CMF WRA=1.225 (related crashes) Since the shoulder is paved, this will have a CMF TRA value of 1.00 for all cases. Apply Shoulder CMF values for each segment scenario: CMF 2ru = (CMF WRA CMF TRA 1. 0) p RA For 8 paved shoulders: CMF 2ru = ( ) = For 6 paved shoulders: CMF 2ru = ( ) = For 3 paved shoulders: CMF 2ru = ( ) = Sample Problem

26 HSM Module 4: Predictive Method Process Existing Conditions (12 lanes, 8 shoulders): N predicted = N spf (CMF 1ru CMF 2ru ) N predicted = 4.49 ( ) = 4.33 Proposed Design A (11 lanes, 6 shoulders): N predicted = 4.49 ( ) = 4.54 Proposed Design B (10 lanes, 3 shoulders): N predicted = 4.49 ( ) = 5.06 Intersection Base Conditions (4-Leg Minor STOP-controlled): Intersection Skew Angle of 0-degrees No left-turn or right-turn lanes (unless stop-controlled) No lighting CMFs will be needed for any conditions that do not meet these intersection base conditions, so for the proposed designs the addition of turn lanes require CMF adjustments. CMF values of 1.0 will be used for the skew and lighting CMF as these adhere to base conditions. Sample Problem

27 HSM Module 4: Predictive Method Process Left-turn Lane CMF: For left-turn lanes on two approaches (total crashes): CMF 2i = For no left-turn lanes: CMF 2i = Right-turn Lane CMF: For right-turn lanes on two approaches (total crashes): CMF 3i = For no right-turn lanes: CMF 3i = Sample Problem

28 HSM Module 4: Predictive Method Process To determine predicted crashes at intersections for each option: Existing Conditions (12 lanes, 8 shoulders): N adjusted = N spf (CMF 1i CMF 2i CMF 3i CMF 4i ) predicted N total int = ( ) = crashes adj Proposed Design A (add left-turn lanes, no right-turn lanes): N total int = ( ) = 6.66 crashes adj Proposed Design B (add left-turn lanes and right-turn lanes): N total int = ( ) = 4.93 crashes adj Combine Predicted Crashes for Segment and Intersections: Scenario Segment Crashes for 2009 Intersection Crashes for 2009 Total Predicted Crashes for 2009 Existing A B Step 5 Apply Local Calibration Factor For site-specific comparisons, the calibration factor is the same for all scenarios. If the goal is to simply determine which scenario would generate the lowest number of crashes (by comparison), then the calibration factor is not required here. If the goal is to more accurately the actual number of crashes for each scenario, then multiply each value obtained in Step 4 by the local calibration factor. For the two alternative scenarios, Proposed Design B with the narrower lanes and shoulders but left and right-turn lanes results in the fewest expected crashes at this location (9.71 for the year 2009). Acknowledgement: The original sample problem was developed by Michael Dimaiuta, Larry Sutherland, and Karen Dixon. Sample Problem

29 Module 7: Network Screening Case Study 7-1: Network Screening Vol. 1 (Part B) Case Study Brief Description of the Project/Case The following case study provides sample data for ten intersections with five-years of crash data ( ). A county is undertaking an effort to improve safety on their highway network and is screening ten intersections to identify sites with potential for reducing crashes depending on various criteria. The county will follow the HSM Roadway Safety Management Process beginning with Network Screening. Your first objective is to perform a network screening analysis for the 10 candidate intersections using the crash rate ranking, EPDO ranking, and expected crash frequency with EB adjustment network screening procedures. Group Discussion Questions: What are the strengths and/or weaknesses of each analysis procedure? Do the individual procedures provide dramatically different results? Which intersections should be the target for additional analysis? Case Study

30 Module 7: Network Screening Acquire data for the network screening of the selected intersections Available Data: For performing the network screening process, you will need crash data (crash type and crash severity) as well as traffic volume for the candidate intersections.

Case Study

33 Module 7: Network Screening Network Screening Method 1: Step 1: Calculate Million Entering Vehicles (MEV): Performance Measure 1: Crash Rate Ranking MEV = (TEV/1,000,000) x (n) x (365) Reference: Equation 4-2, p of HSM Where: TEV = Total entering vehicles per day, n = Number of years of crash data Step 2: Calculate Crash Rate: Crash Rate (R ) = N observed i(total) / MEV i Reference: Equation 4-3, p of HSM For Intersection 1: MEV = (( )/1,000,000) x 5 x 365 = R = 257/84.86 = 3.03 Step 3: Rank Locations: Intersection Total Crashes MEV Crash Rate (CR) Rank Case Study

34 Module 7: Network Screening Network Screening Method 2: Performance Measure 2: EPDO - Ranking Step 1: Calculate EPDO Weights: f y = CC y/cc PDO Reference: Equation 4-4 (p.4-30 HSM) EPDO Weight (Injury Crash) = $82,600/$7,400 = EPDO Weight (Fatal Crash) = $4,008,900/$7,400 = (Every Injury Crash is equivalent to PDO Crash) (Every Fatal Crash is equivalent to PDO Crash) Severity Comprehensive Cost (2001 Dollars) Equivalent Weights (Refer to Table 4-7 on p.4-29) Fatal (K) $4,008, Injury Crashes (A/B/C) $82, PDO $7,400 1 Step 2: Calculate EPDO Score: Total EPDO Score = (Total Fatal Crashes) (Total Injury Crashes) + 1 (Total PDO Crashes) For Intersection 1 - EPDO Score = ( x 0) + (11.16 x 63) + (1 x 194) = 897 Step 3: Rank Sites: Intersection EPDO Score Rank Case Study

35 Module 7: Network Screening Network Screening Method 3: Performance Measure 3: Expected Crash Frequency with Empirical Bayesian (EB) Adjustment Intersection Ranking with expected average crash frequency using EB adjustment TOTAL crashes Fatal and Injury Crashes (KABC) PDO crashes (O) Intersection Intersection Intersection Intersection Intersection Intersection Intersection Intersection Intersection Intersection Summary of Network Screen Assessment: Based on the crash rate ranking, EPDO ranking, and the expected crash frequency with EB adjustment we see that Intersections 2, 6, and 8 are all ranked as the top three locations where there is the most opportunity for crash reduction. Though the ranking between first and second varies between Intersections 2 and 8, this network screen assessment can confirm that each of these three intersections merit additional diagnosis and evaluation. Acknowledgements: The original case study was developed by Darren Torbic and Ingrid Potts from MRI. Case Study

36 Module 9: Diagnosis and Countermeasure Selection Case Study 9-1: Diagnosis and Countermeasure Selection Vol. 1 (Part B) Case Study Brief Description of the Project/Case As introduced in Module #7, Case Study 7-1, one continuous sample problem has been developed to demonstrate the entire roadway safety management process. Case Study 7-1 identified three candidate intersection locations that require additional analysis to see if there are opportunities to reduce crashes at these locations. One of the intersections that ranked highly by all three of the demonstrated network screening evaluations was Intersection 2 (1 st Avenue and Golf Road). In this portion of the case study, the agency has now elected to focus on Intersection 2, diagnose the intersection, and then identify candidate countermeasures for this location. In addition to a site visit and general review of the crash history at this location, the analyst can calculate the predicted average number of crashes at the intersection and then evaluate two countermeasures that have been recommended by their staff. The two candidate countermeasures include (1) changing the intersection to a roundabout, and keeping the intersection and adding a protected left-turn traffic signal phase. An aerial photo of the intersection location is shown below: Case Study
