The dedicated route (Transitway) contains eight intersections. Two intersections are controlled by signal lights activated by the approach of a bus and six intersections are controlled by STOP signs. The motivation for the study was the unexpected increase in the number of accidents when the route was transferred from city streets to the Transitway in March 1992. This human factors initiative was conducted as part of the Transitway Safety Project at the University of Minnesota. Research was conducted in two phases. The present report details Phase II research, a 1998 evaluation of the effectiveness of the safety improvements implemented in the Transitway, using the same measures as those used in Phase I, with the exception that bus driver evaluations were dropped from Phase II research.enITS InstituteHuman factorsTransitway Safety Improvement ProgramReport
