Conférence midi de Owen Waygood et Shabnam Abdollahi - Measuring Traffic Hazard to Systematically Address Traffic Danger
18 novembre 2025
Safe streets are more than a lack of collisions. It is understanding where the hazard - the potential to kill or severely injury - exists. This presentation will first introduce the concept of traffic hazard and why this approach will help address traffic danger systematically. Then, it will explain how we developed a means of estimating traffic hazard that can be applied across the entire road network. It will close with an example of the application of this new knowledge to identify where to address traffic danger for children going to school.
