Abstract:<\/h2>\n
Background\/Context: Red-light running is a driver behavior that can lead to collisions involving motorists, cyclists and pedestrians. Angle collisions caused by red-light running typically result in more severe injuries to roadway users (compared to other collision types) and represents 10% of collisions at traffic signals in the Region of Waterloo. Aims\/Objectives: This study attempts to identify roadway design elements and operational practices that may contribute to red-light running behaviour at traffic signals. The information resulting from this study may be helpful in altering future intersection design and operational practices resulting in less red-light running, collisions, injuries and fatalities.<\/p>\n
Methods\/Targets:<\/p>\n
Step 1 - Categorize the Region of Waterloo's inventory of 16 intersections operating with red-light cameras by geometric elements (e.g. 3-leg, 4-leg, grade), as well as operational elements (e.g. 1-way, 2-way, speed limit, operating speed, traffic signal mode of operation).<\/p>\n
Step 2 (Optional) - Consider additional sample data from other municipalities in Ontario operating red-light cameras.<\/p>\n
Step 3 - Obtain historical red-light camera data.<\/p>\n
Step 4 - Compare red-light running data (e.g. rate, frequency, intrusion time) within each respective geometric and operational category.<\/p>\n
Results\/Activities: To be determined<\/p>\n
Discussion\/Deliverables: To be determined Conclusions: Geometric and operational elements associated with increased red-light running (rate, frequency and intrusion time) will be documented based on the study of intersections operating with red-light cameras.<\/p>\n
