ROAD USER SAFETY EXPERIENCE
- 2011—Policy Review: Traffic Control Warrants (Regional Municipality of York). York Region has justification criteria in place that help guide the installation of traffic control devices on York Region road facilities, such as traffic control signals, mid-block and intersection pedestrian signals, community Safety Zones. Giffin Koerth was retained by York Region to undertake a state-of-the-practice review, compare these findings to the Region’s current justification criteria, and make recommendations for modifications, if necessary.
- 2012—Technical Update of Ontario Traffic Manual Book 12. This project includes the revision of the Ministry of Transportation Ontario (MTO) Book 12 to provide clarification or to correct any discrepancy, deficiency, ambiguity, error, inconsistency or minor omission that may exist in the current version of the manual.
- 2010—School Operational Safety Review (Regional Municipality of Durham). A study to review the vehicle, transit and pedestrian operations along Harwood Avenue and on the site of two collocated high schools with shared facilities. The two school boards expressed concerns for the safety of students at the vehicular entrances, as well as waiting times for vehicles entering and exiting the school during peak times.
- 2010—Traffic Operations Analysis and Countermeasure Development (MTO). Through its annual network performance assessments, the Northwest Region of the Ontario Ministry of Transportation (MTO) identified a priority list of locations, which appear to be exhibiting a higher-risk of collisions compared to other similar type highways in the region. Retained to undertake comprehensive in-service operational safety reviews of twenty locations of the higher priority road sections, which included a total of approximately 2000 kilometres of roadways and numerous intersections and private accesses.
