| Abstract | The objective of this project is to evaluate the effectiveness of Sequential Dynamic Curve Warning System (SDCWS) in reducing vehicle speeds and the frequency and severity of speed related crashes on horizontal curves on rural roadways. Twelve treatment sites and 24 control sites were selected in Iowa (1), Missouri (1), Texas (4), Washington (3) and Wisconsin (3). Speed data will be collected before and immediately after the installation, as well as after 12, 18 and 24 months. Guidelines and recommendations for implementing SDCWS displays for curves will be included in the final report. |
