1 Safe Access to Transit: Integrating Transit Operations with Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety and Mobility Best Practices AMPO 2014 October 23, 2014

2 Presentation Overview Pedestrian (and bicycle) safety problem and the relationship to transit FHWA Focus Cities/States Program (for national context) Tampa Bay region crash statistics Overview of the Pedestrian Safety Action Plan Process (and the role of MPOs in this process) Explanation of pedestrian/bicycle safety correlation with transit Safe Access to Transit project objectives and organization Scope overview Funding source Agency coordination/roles Strategic planning task Study site-selection process (data and analysis) Policy review (analysis of LRTPs, CMPs, and TDPs for institutional capacity-building purposes) Funding solutions (Systemic Highway Safety Improvement Program funding justification under MAP-21) Case study improvement recommendations Field review process, including the use of mobile applications for data collection Example outcomes/recommendations

3 TRANSIT AND PEDESTRIAN (& BICYCLE) SAFETY RELATIONSHIP

4 Purpose/Need Florida State Name Average Florida New Mexico Louisiana South Carolina District of Columbia Arizona Nevada Hawaii Delaware Mississippi California Maryland North Carolina Texas New Jersey Georgia Alabama New York National (Average) National Average Highest Number of Per Capita Pedestrian Fatalities Second Highest Number of Per Capita Pedestrian Fatalities Pedestrian Safety Guide for Transit Agencies Workshop Third Highest Number of Per Capita Pedestrian Fatalities

5 Purpose/Need Danger Index: Per Capita Pedestrian Fatalities Percent of Pedestrians Walking to Work

6 Pedestrian Safety Action Plans Data-driven process Multidisciplinary Best practices/countermeasures Consensus building

7 Purpose/Need Most pedestrian crashes Occur when pedestrians attempt to cross major roadways Involve adult pedestrians Pedestrian Crashes by Age and Sex Number of Crashes Female Male Unknown 0 < >55 Age Distribution

8 Purpose/Need There is an over-representation of pedestrian crashes At night (about 40%) In low income/auto-ownership areas

9 Purpose/Need Most pedestrian crashes occur when pedestrians attempt to cross major roadways

10 Purpose/Need

11 Purpose/Need

12 Purpose/Need

13 Purpose/Need Every bus stop is a pedestrian crossing, whether designed accordingly Bus Stop

14 Purpose/Need Every bus stop is a pedestrian crossing, whether designed accordingly or not. Bus Stop

15 How far are you willing to go for an improved crossing? Would you walk:

16 How far are you willing to go for an improved crossing? Would you walk:

17 Purpose/Need Pedestrian safety and transit correlate: Geographically Demographically Providing safe access to transit Benefits transit riders Provides focal points for pedestrian safety investment along corridors a benefit to all pedestrians! Can improve route and roadway performance

18 FDOT S SAFE ACCESS TO TRANSIT INITIATIVE

19 Safe Access to Transit Concept Promote regional bike/pedestrian safety on roadways and transit corridors Identify enhancement and practices to create safe, comfortable, accessible, and welcoming bicycle/pedestrian environments Encourage multi-modal activity to generate economic vitality

20 Safe Access to Transit Concept Funding provided through Federal Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) Also working to leverage other projects/efforts

21 Safe Access to Transit Concept FDOT is owner of roadway but agency coordination is critical o Transit agencies o Local governments o MPOs Use of modified road safety audit approach (multi-agency, multi-disciplinary) Debriefing within FDOT and also with transit agencies

22 Site Selection/Prioritization

23 Site Selection/Prioritization

24 Site Selection/Prioritization

25 Site Selection/Prioritization

26 Site Selection/Prioritization

27 Plan/Policy Review Focus: Long Range Transportation Plans Congestion Management Processes Transit Development Plans Policy statements Prioritization Criteria Show me the money!

28 Plan/Policy Review Broward MPO Example: Regionally significant corridor congestion management/livability projects Categorical funding for Complete Streets and Mobility Hubs At DOT a road safety audit program/policy is key!

29 Funding Justification Benefit/Cost or Net Present Value approach: Crash History x Percent Reduction x Crash Cost Cost of Project Effective for high-crash locations with clear pattern Less effective for low-frequency/high-severity events

30 Funding Justification Systemic Approach: Established patterns of crash causation High priority location Known best practice solutions Encouraged by SAFETEA-LU Required by MAP-21 But the formula is uncertain

31 CASE STUDY ISSUES/FINDINGS

32 Typical Issues Far-side with bus bay Near-side Far-side, no bus bay

33 Typical Issues Near-side Advantages: Stops are closest to signal/crosswalks Bus leaves signal at the head of the platoon Bus may board/alight during red no wasted time Disadvantages: Conflict with right turning vehicles When bus stops on green, thru vehicles are blocked Bus approaching on green is likely to miss the signal

34 Stops at Signalized Intersections: Near-side vs. Far-side Far-side Advantages: Does not impact right-turning traffic Thru queue can proceed thru light (depending on distance to intersection) Bus may proceed thru when approaching a green signal Disadvantages: Stop is further from signal/crosswalks Bus cannot use red signal to effect boarding/alighting
