Low-Cost Pedestrian Safety Zone Approach
Source: National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has documented a Low-Cost Pedestrian Safety Zone approach that focuses on delivering rapid safety improvements in localized neighborhoods or districts with higher pedestrian death and injury risks. This approach allows communities to target small areas with similar risk factors using a systemic and risk-based strategy. To support implementation, NHTSA offers resources including an eight-step guide, details on countermeasure selection, and an explainer video.
