A-0009
PT Engineering developed a traffic safety analysis for US 74 improvements (A-0009) in Graham County. A 5-year crash analysis for three sections of the Corridor K project were completed. The analyses were summarized with breakdowns of crash types as well as crash rate comparisons of the study sections to the statewide crash rates of similar route types. The critical crash rates for the segments were also calculated to determine if the study crash rates exceeded the critical crash rates. The critical crash rate is a crash rate that is statistically adjusted to account for exposure (traffic volume and segment length).
U-4739
PT Engineering (as a subconsultant to Three Oaks Engineering, Inc.) developed a traffic safety analysis for U-4739; SR 3556 (Amboy Road/Meadow Road) improvements from I-240 to US 25 (Biltmore Avenue) in Buncombe County. The 5-year crash analysis was summarized with breakdowns of crash types as well as crash rate comparisons of the study sections to the statewide crash rates of similar route types. The locations of pedestrian and bicycle crashes were reported in order to identify if there were pedestrian safety concerns along the corridor. The critical crash rates for the segment were also calculated to determine if the study crash rates exceeded the critical crash rates.
R-5862
PT Engineering developed a traffic safety analysis for the proposed widening of US 64 from US 601 south of Mocksville to US 52 in Lexington in Davidson and Davie Counties. The study area was broken into three segments to allow for comparisons of crash rates for similar route types. Three 5-year crash analyses were
summarized with breakdowns of crash types as well as crash rate comparisons of the
study sections to the statewide crash rates of similar route types. The critical crash rates for the segments
were also calculated to determine if the study crash rates exceeded the critical crash
rates. The purpose of the analysis was to determine if further safety studies need to be investigated in the project area.
