| Abstract | The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) explored ways to improve horizontal curve safety by identifying whether geometric improvements or pavement friction restorations would best address safety concerns associated with a particular curve. TxDOT wanted to maximize the investment’s benefit and minimize the need for additional improvements. |
