7. Safety and Operational Effects of Geometric Design Features for Two-Lane Rural Highways Workshop
Exercise III – IL 64 North Avenue from Bloomingdale Road to Main Street-Glen Ellyn
April 2009
Predict the Crash Frequency Performance for the intersections using the Rural Multilane intersection models for the following:
Bloomingdale Road (signalized)
Shopping Center (signalized)
Main Street-Glen Ellyn (signalized)
Eight “T” non-signalized intersections (700 ADT)
One “T” non-signalized intersection (1,500 ADT)
Instructor: Task 1 with the five sub tasks for the three major intersections, the eight minor intersections of 700 adt and one intersection of 1,500 adt for the “before” condition as a “rural” multilane highway
Use Worksheet Exercise III
Session 7 –Exercise III

8. Exercise III – IL 64 North Avenue from Bloomingdale Road to Main Street-Glen Ellyn
Safety and Operational Effects of Geometric Design Features for Two-Lane Rural Highways Workshop
April 2009
Total the Predicted Crash Frequency performance for all intersections
Bloomingdale Road (signalized)
Shopping Center (signalized)
Main Street-Glen Ellyn (signalized)
Eight “T” non-signalized intersections (700 AADT)
One “T” non-signalized intersection (1,500 AADT)
____
____
____
Instructor: presentation of task 2 summing the individual major and minor intersections
____
___
Total _____

9. Exercise III – IL 64 North Avenue from Bloomingdale Road to Main Street-Glen Ellyn
Safety and Operational Effects of Geometric Design Features for Two-Lane Rural Highways Workshop
April 2009
Compare the Substantive Intersection Crash Frequency Performance to the Predicted Crash Frequency Performance:
Substantive Safety Performance =
450 in 3 yrs
____ per year
Predicted Crash Frequency Performance =
Instructor: task 3
The IL 64 crash data does not break out the individual intersection crash info for the non-signalized intersections; only the signalized intersections. The non-signalized intersection crash data is included in the 3-years of segment crash data, it’s difficult to determine the actual safety performance.
____ per year
Substantive Safety Performance less than Predicted Crash Frequency?
YES/NO
