abstract="The Washington-Baltimore Section of the Institute of Transportation Engineers, through its Technical Affairs Committee, assumed the task of identifying those technical, institutional and procedural measures that might improve traffic safety studies in Maryland. To accomplish this task, the Section Technical Affairs chairman appointed a committee which, in cooperation with the faculty at the University of Maryland Transportation Studies Center and the Maryland Municipal League, proposed a seminar format. The seminar would bring together for one day traffic engineers and municipal and elected officials to answer the following questions: (1) What are the most pressing problems in small towns? (2) What are the most effective traffic engineering countermeasures? (3) How can traffic engineers and elected officials join forces to get these countermeasures in place and in operation? It is hoped that this report of the committee's activities and conclusions will be of use to other traffic engineers and may serve as a model for similar projects in other districts and sections.<p />",
