Abstract As roadway funding becomes more and more limited and improvement projects face fierce competition, public agencies search for cost-effective, practical solutions to meet safety and operational needs of all users. Road Diets are a low-cost countermeasure with proven safety benefits for both motorized and non-motorized users. A Road Diet reallocates roadway space to better meet current user needs. This configuration is an inherently low-cost solution, but agencies can reduce project costs even further by combining Road Diets with other programs, such as pavement overlays or restriping.
