| Abstract | Based on the success of the 2008 Trespasser Workshop, FRA and FTA sponsored this follow-on workshop. The keynote speech by FRA Administrator, Mr. Joseph C. Szabo, was followed by 23 technical presentations in the areas of Pedestrian Safety, Hazard Management, Design Technology and Infrastructure, Community Outreach, Enforcement, and Intentional Deaths/Acts. Workshop attendees broke into working groups charged with developing prioritized recommended actions for their respective topics; they developed more than 90 ideas which covered new or expanded initiatives, strategies, and research projects. Each group then defined three to five top recommended actions for its respective topic area. This resulted in the identification of 23 high-priority recommended actions. |
