Field Test of the 'Heed the Speed' Pedestrian Safety Program
Learn about the "Heed The Speed” campaign in two Arizona cities. The campaign combined public information and enforcement techniques with engineering changes to achieve greater speed reductions, or for yielding speed reductions on streets within neighborhoods that were not candidates for physical treatments.

Regional Pedestrian and Bicycling Analysis
The Mid-Region Council of Governments of Albuquerque, New Mexico (MRCOG) has implemented a transportation accessibility model (TRAM) capable of evaluating levels of accessibility. TRAM is a GIS-ArcView tool that uses a network containing all streets, sidewalks, bike lanes, trails and routes and schedules of the public transportation system. The model assesses the "connectivity" of pedestrian and bike systems, and evaluates and prioritizing proposed improvements to the transportation system from a market based perspective. (80)


Intersection LOS for Pedestrians: F DOT's Latest Advancements
Intersections are among the most complex features of the transportation system; in many cases, they represent the most formidable portion of pedestrians' travel route. Accurate modeling of intersections will enable transportation professionals to design intersections that better, and more safely, accommodate pedestrians. Florida DOT has developed precise methodologies that relate the level of service to the quality of accommodation (safety) perceived by the pedestrians. (81)


Coordinating and Developing Pedestrian Master Plans and ADA Transition Plans
A combined Pedestrian/ADA Plan ensures that the needs of disabled individuals as well as the general walking population are prioritized properly in a coordinated fashion. This presentation covers the main components needed for a comprehensive and coordinated pedestrian/ADA, and discusses the relation between a Pedestrian Master Plan and an ADA Transition Plan. (89)
