  • Crash Reduction Team

  • Posted in Research Teams:

    Investigating the Monetary Benefits of Crash Reduction on Interstate Highways by Employing Express Intercity Transit Services


    This team combines three Phd students with expertise in civil engineering combined with information theory, and economics, and an undergraduate Channels scholar to better understand interstate highway crashes using data science techniques that will aid in fulfilling the U.S. Federal Highway Vision Zero initiative. The team will also explore safety benefits of public transportation alternatives, and quantify the benefits of crash reduction by monetary values.
