TY - JOUR PY - 2002// TI - Accident Mitigation on Congested Rural Two-Lane Highways JO - ITE journal A1 - Fitzpatrick, Kay A1 - Harwood, Douglas W. A1 - Potts, IB SP - 42 EP - 44 VL - 72 IS - 4 N2 - Majority of the U.S. highway system consists of two- and three-lane rural roads. Some of these rural highways are becoming congested, and as a result, the number of accidents is also increasing. Recognizing the severity of the problem, a National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) has been initiated. Through this project, the Accident Mitigation Guide has been established. The resulting guide provides one comprehensive document that a practitioner can use to investigate several potential countermeasures for improving safety and/or operations on rural or exurban two- and three-lane highways.
