Abstract

This paper provides a general overview of roadside safety, covering various aspects from the extent of the problem, to safety improvement priorities, to safety relationships, to cost-effectiveness analysis. The paper is presented as part of a conference session in which different aspects of roadway and roadside safety are covered. The discussions are thus general and brief in nature. The intent is to familiarize highway engineers with the state of the art in roadside safety, not to provide detailed discussions on any specific aspect of roadside safety.
