A synthesis of countermeasures and their associated crash reduction factors, as identified on either the CMF Clearinghouse or other relevant publications, will be covered. Information on using the CMF Clearinghouse and how to evaluate various CMFs will be provided. Countermeasures for specific areas, including: roadway segments and curves; roadsides; un-signalized and signalized intersections will be covered. Through exercises, participants will learn how to analyze highway safety situations and apply appropriate countermeasures to those situations.
