SafeCurves: Prioritize
A research-based targeted approach for horizontal curve investigation.
Comprehensive corridor-based curve prioritization
SafeCurves: Prioritize offers a corridor-based method to prioritize curves, ensuring improved safety through consistent driver routes. Unlike isolated curve prioritization, this approach considers the broader motorist environment, enhancing safety more effectively.
Simplifying the process of prioritizing investment
Provides a more effective safety improvement by focusing on entire corridors rather than isolated curves.
Uses a data-driven approach to prioritize interventions, so resources are allocated where they are needed most.
Delivers a detailed ranking system, enabling targeted interventions and better safety outcomes.
Promotes consistent driving conditions across longer road sections, reducing the risk of crashes.
Optimize decision-making with SafeCurves: Prioritize
With SafeCurves: Prioritize, corridors are prioritized based on factors such as curve context, traffic volume, and crash data, and are classified into five priority levels: Low, Low-Medium, Medium, Medium-High, and High. Additionally, individual out-of-context curves are ranked, providing a comprehensive safety assessment.
Powerful features for enhanced efficiency
SafeCurves: Prioritize focuses on longer sections of roads rather than isolated curves, ensuring route consistency for drivers and enhancing overall safety.
Prioritizes corridors using curve context, traffic volume, and crash data, determining homogeneous road sections based on factors such as road name, topography, or intersection termination.
SafeCurves: Prioritizes outputs a dataset with five categories—Low, Low-Medium, Medium, Medium-High, and High—and includes a ranking of individual out-of-context curves for thorough assessment.
