Origins of Drivers and Pedestrians Involved in Pedestrian Crashes
As part of the upcoming 2012 Pedestrian Safety Tracking Report, researchers at the New Jersey Bicycle & Pedestrian Resource Center examined the relationship between zip code of residence for both drivers and pedestrians involved crashes and how this illustrates the characteristics of crashes and who is causing them.
BPRC Goes to TRB
In January, staff from the NJ Bicycle and Pedestrian Resource Center (BPRC) attended the 92nd Annual Transportation Research Board (TRB) Conference held in Washington D.C. The conference features more than 4,000 presentations that address a wide range of topics in transportation policy and practice. Bicycle and Pedestrian topics have been gaining momentum at the conference with capacity crowds attending some of the more popular sessions. For this year's conference we have compiled a few papers we thought were interesting and wanted to share! While the Conference does offer many more studies than what we have provided here, these 6 reports highlight a small sample of the valuable research presented at the TRB Conference.
