Abstract This case study discusses the use of SafetyAnalyst, a software tool designed to implement analysis methods, with Highway Safety Manual (HSM) Part B- Roadway Safety Management Process, Chapters 4 through 9. SafetyAnalyst contains tools to perform Network Screening, Diagnosis, Countermeasure Selection, Economic Appraisal, Priority Ranking, and Countermeasure Evaluation. This software also uses the crash modification factors (CMFs) contained in Part D of the HSM to assist with countermeasure selection and economic evaluation. SafetyAnalyst also has the flexibility to allow user-defined CMFs or allow state-specific CMFs to expand or override the CMFs found in the HSM Part D.
