| Abstract | In 2010, the Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) created a Safety Office to analyze crash types, causes, and severity. In 2011, Tennessee adopted their Roadway Departure Implementation Plan, which included high friction surface treatments (HFST). Up to that time, TDOT had implemented HFST at ten locations statewide, primarily for lengthening bridge lifecycles, and were now interested in widespread deployment of the treatment as a safety improvement through the State’s HFST Initiative. |
