SUMMARY:USDOT Free Public Webinar:  Intersection Safety Challenge Prize Competition
DESCRIPTION:The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) will host a webinar on May 22 to discuss the Intersection Safety Challenge Prize Competition\, which launched on April 25\, 2023. \nEach year\, roughly one-quarter of traffic fatalities and about one-half of all traffic injuries in the United States are attributed to intersections. According to the latest data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)\, an estimated 42\,939 people died in motor vehicle traffic crashes in 2021\, a 10.1% increase compared to 39\,007 fatalities reported in 2020. From 2020 to 2021\, pedestrian and pedalcyclist fatalities and injuries increased at an alarming rate. For example\, pedestrian fatalities increased 13% and pedestrian injuries increased 11% from 2020 to 2021. In response to growing concerns regarding the safety of vulnerable road users at intersections and as part of the recent National Roadway Safety Strategy (NRSS) Call to Action\, the DOT aims to transform intersection safety through the innovative application of emerging technologies to identify and mitigate unsafe conditions involving vehicles and vulnerable road users. \nTo help address this growing problem and support U.S. DOT’s vision\, U.S. DOT is launching the Intersection Safety Challenge. This Challenge includes a multi-stage Prize Competition to encourage teams of innovators and end-users to develop and test their intersection safety systems (ISS) to compete for up to $6 million total in prizes. \nThe Challenge is considering the potential of emerging technologies to transform intersection safety and ensure equity among all road users (including vehicles and vulnerable road users). Leveraging emerging technologies to anticipate\, prevent\, and mitigate unsafe roadway conditions could augment traditional safety engineering in roadway design and intersection control. These emerging technologies could include machine vision\, machine perception\, sensor fusion\, real-time decision-making\, artificial intelligence\, and vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications (among other approaches). These technologies in most cases rely on real-time decision-making informed by data ingested and analyzed from multiple sensor systems. \nThe webinar will discuss the U.S. DOT Intersection Safety Challenge Prize Competition\, including a program overview\, the Prize Competition structure\, and Stage 1A expectations.

SUMMARY:Roundtable on Traffic Safety Research featuring Dr. Tarek Sayed
DESCRIPTION:The increasing popularity of smart cities and recent developments in sensing\, edge computing and vehicle technologies and the availability of “big data” combined with sophisticated AI techniques offer an opportunity to substantially advance and fundamentally transform the road safety profession—enabling continuous\, real-time\, proactive safety evaluation and optimization. The application of innovations that are both progressing and disrupting the status quo represents an opportunity for improved transportation safety. However\, with the introduction of new modes of mobility and the complex interactions created by these different technologies within the transportation system\, governments will need to rely on advanced research and analysis techniques to support policies towards the transition to these new forms of mobility and technologies. These issues are discussed and several methods and techniques developed in this area are described with example projects from several agencies worldwide. \n  \nTarek Sayed is a distinguished professor and a Tier 1 Canada Research Chair of Transportation Safety and Advanced Mobility at the University of British Columbia. His research focuses on traffic operation and safety\, Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS)\, and the application of information technologies.

SUMMARY:Proactive Safety Management Empowered by Big Data
DESCRIPTION:In the last few decades\, data-driven methods have been used to assist with key tasks of road safety management like hotspot identification\, countermeasure development\, and before-after evaluation. These methods have traditionally relied heavily on historical crash data for safety assessment\, which can take a long time to collect. Professor Kun Xie will share a more proactive and time-efficient approach based on surrogate safety measures (SSMs)\, which can assess safety by capturing the more frequent “near-crash” situations. Massive amounts of data from emerging sources like GPS devices\, smartphone apps\, traffic cameras\, naturalistic driving\, and connected vehicles (CV) can be leveraged to extract SSMs on a large scale\, presenting new opportunities for proactive traffic safety management. Results will show that risk status is a reliable criterion for safety assessment\, and promisingly point towards the use CV data for proactive traffic safety management.
