TTC-T-0057 - Pedestrian Safety Countermeasures
Course Description
Let’s take a walk through the many pedestrian safety countermeasures to help make transportation safer for ALL users. We’ll review crosswalk enhancements, hybrid beacons, Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (RRFB), Leading Pedestrian Intervals (LPIs), and other important pedestrian measures and technologies. After classroom time reviewing the proven countermeasures for Safe Transportation for Every Pedestrian (STEP), we'll move into a practical application of considering various countermeasures to address specific intersection and other needs. This class may include time outdoors, so attendees should come prepared for time outside, including high-vis PPE to work roadside, appropriate attire to protect against insects and sun, etc.
Topics discussed will include:
- Benefits of STEP (Safe Transportation for Every Pedestrian)
