Modeling Multilevel Data in Traffic Safety
by Hoong Chor Chin and Helai Huang
Background: In the study of traffic system safety, statistical models have been broadly applied to establish the relationships between the traffic crash occurrence and various risk factors. Most of the existing methods, such as the generalised linear regression models, assume that each observation (e.g. a crash or a vehicle involvement) in the estimation procedure corresponds to an individual situation. Hence, the residuals from the models exhibit independence. Problem: However, this "independen...
"Lewis describes in a convincing, lively, and well-documented narrative the evolution of America’s roadway system from one of the world’s worst road networks to its best."—John Pucher, Journal of the American Planning Association In Divided Highways, Tom Lewis offers an encompassing account of highway development in the United States. In the early twentieth century Congress created the Bureau of Public Roads to improve roads and the lives of rural Americans. The Bureau was the forerunner of the...

Design Manual for Roads and Bridges
Whether you are a student considering a career in civil engineering and transportation planning, a public official interested in the future of infrastructure, or a person who simply cares about bridges, this book offers an accessible and illustrated introduction to the most beloved feature of our built environment. Learn about engineering basics: the forces that bridges must resist to stay aloft and the principles by which engineers decide which types of bridges make sense at which sites. Find o...
High and Low Speed Skidding Resistance (TRL report, #367)
by P G Roe, A.R. Parry, and H E Viner
A key aspect of road safety is the provision of adequate friction between the tyre and the road surfacing. Current UK standards for skidding resistance are based on studies carried out in the 1970s, but as traffic levels and speed have increased and new surfacing materials have developed there has been a clear need for further research. This report contains the result of research commissioned by the Highways Agency in 1995 to assess the influence of texture on the relationship between high- and...
