| Abstract | This report contains technical results that have been produced in a study to revise and update the DOT rail-highway crossing resource allocation procedure. This work has resulted in new accident prediction and severity formulas, a modified and extended resource allocation model, and more flexible and more complete software. The new accident and severity prediction formulas are based on recent inventory and recent accident experience. This report complements two other reports which have been produced from the study and which are due to be published in 1987. |
