3 Summary A series of accidents occurred during the first weeks of the semester prompting the formation of a Traffic Safety Task Force, led by Jay Kasey, Senior Vice President of Administration & Planning and Dr. Javaune Adams-Gaston, Vice President for Student Life. While the accidents did not follow a specific pattern, feedback from the campus community suggests that students, faculty and staff feel there are significant traffic safety issues that need to be addressed. The task force was charged to provide an initial assessment of safety on campus as it relates to pedestrian and vehicular behavior and suggest both short and long term solutions. The task force reviewed safety measures and practices on other campuses and considered related research of Ohio State students and faculty before making the following recommendations. 3 Traffic Safety Task Force Report- September
4 AU 11 Total Enrollments-Quarters AU 12 Total Enrollments-Semesters Quarter vs Semester Enrollments Many individuals in the University community commented that campus feels more congested, particularly during class changes, now that we have transitioned to semesters. The registrar s office provided a sampling of the high volume class break times in both quarters and semesters. A semester student is registered for an average of five classes compared to an average of three classes under the quarter system. While the highest volume during a break on any given day is comparable between quarters and semesters, the additional class load results in sustained volume throughout the day and week under the semester model. 9:00 9:30 10:00 10:30 11:00 1:00 1:30 2:00 2:30 3:00 3:30 Concerns The following are the main concerns of the campus community as expressed through , the task force members and on social media: Cyclists do not know or understand the rules of the road. Many cyclists behave as pedestrians and do not know/understand that they are considered vehicles and are subject to the same traffic laws as motorists. Distracted behavior by pedestrians (headphones, phone usage, etc.). Jaywalking and confusion regarding pedestrian rules. Inadequate infrastructure on campus to support multiple modes of transportation and provide safe environment for each mode
5 Auto Accident Injury Total Accidents Reported Total Reported Accidents Involving I nj u ry Jan-Aug Motor Vehicles O n ly Auto-Bike Accident Auto-Pedestrian Accident Pedestrian-Bike Accident Type of Crash Auto Accident NO Injury Total Accidents Reported Total Reported Accidents Not Involving I nj u ry Jan-Aug Campus Accidents Accidents involving vehicles, bycicles and pedestrians can occur because of distracted behavior, failure to follow traffic laws, and inadequate infrastructure. Short term education alone is not enough to change behavior. The task force recommends prolonged educational efforts combined with defined periods of enforcement Motor Vehicles O n ly 0 Auto-Bike Auto-Pedestrian Accident Accident Type of Crash Pedestrian-Bike Accident 5 Traffic Safety Task Force Report- September
6 Hall Derby Hall Bricker 19% 5% Hopkins Hall 11% Total Before Campaign Derby Hall Bricker Hall 20% 3% Hopkins Hall 14% Total after Campaign Jaywalking Jaywalking is a common concern on campus. For example, in observing 1,200 pedestrians on 17th Avenue at three buildings, there were significant rates of jaywalking. Even after an educational effort, significant jaywalking persisted crossing 17th
7 Solutions Short term Adopt a clear and strong set of rules of the road for all modes which can be enacted through education, regulation and enforcement to raise awareness and reduce accidents on campus. The task force recommends the following to achieve this short term goal: A comprehensive, layered, educational campaign for all Action 1 modes of transportation aimed at establishing expectations for pedestrian, cyclist and motorist behavior. Elements of the campaign would include enhancing the Share the Road website, resident advisor centered education in the residence halls, use of Buckeye TV for public service announcements and outreach education, such as a video, for international students and their parents. Education is important to achieve short term goals but is also a long term strategy. New York City s Look campaign could be adapted and applied to OSU, encouraging greater attention when moving through campus. 7 Traffic Safety Task Force Report- September
8 Action 2 A layered enforcement strategy consisting of information blitzes followed by warning blitzes (no citations) then enforcement blitzes (citations). Partnership with the City of Columbus would be ideal to ensure consistency East and West of High St. Enforcement by OSUPD could be supplemented by a student led Safety Patrol reinforcing safe behaviors and suggesting corrective action for unsafe or unlawful behavior. Adding crossing guards early in the term at high traffic intersections could promote and instill safe behaviors
9 Action 3 Enhancing signage at crosswalks. Current signage is aimed at motorists. Painted Look messages or the like would alert pedestrians to be on the lookout for motorists and not blindly step into the street. IO... OH... 9 Traffic Safety Task Force Report- September
10 Action 4 Establishing the Oval as a dismount zone for cyclists. This would be the beginning of a cultural shift on campus and could be expanded to a larger area (e.g., between Neil and College in the academic core)
11 Action 5 Reduce traffic congestion on campus. Evaluate delivery, maintenance and construction traffic to streamline procedures with the goal of reducing overall traffic and eliminating unnecessary deliveries, particularly on core campus, by better utilizing Stores & Receiving 11 Traffic Safety Task Force Report- September
12 Solutions Long term Create a campus culture accommodating and respectful of all modes of transportation to ensure the safety of students, faculty, staff and visitors on campus. The task force recommends the following to achieve this long term goal: Action 6 A comprehensive study of the campus multimodal circulation patterns and behaviors. This would involve looking at desire lines for pedestrians, bikes and autos; identifying a hierarchy of paths and streets; and then developing use typologies for each corridor on campus. From this analysis a strategy for design, regulation and enforcement could be crafted
13 Action 7 Empower campus groups such as COPE, DPS and Student Government to lead efforts across campus implementing short and long term goals of the Safety Task Force. Action 8 Continued education and enforcement that becomes part of the campus culture. Orientation and Welcome Week activities will be included in the educational efforts going forward. 13 Traffic Safety Task Force Report- September
14 Recommended Next Steps The task force recommendations are intended to be realistic, sustainable and impactful. The short term action items can be planned and implemented over the next four to six months. The results of the short term actions will help identify and inform the steps needed to achieve the long term cultural change in traffic safety behaviors on campus. In the next 30 days, the following steps will be taken to develop a strategy for implementation: Collaborate with the City of Columbus to coordinate enforcement activities and address infrastructure needs. Infrastructure enhancements to crosswalks on High St. (signage and signals) and the addition of sidewalks on Kinnear Rd. are the highest priorities Evaluate resources needed to accomplish goals and identify funding sources. Engage campus community to develop an action plan for short and long term goals. Develop and implement metrics to measure success. Develop a communications plan for both internal and external audiences
