Abstract: We are pleased to present the final report of Caltrans Task Orders 5211 and 6211, “Estimating Pedestrian Accident Exposure.” The project focused on defining pedestrian exposure and evaluating methods for measuring it within the State of California. The project was funded by the California Department of Transportation as part of the California Partners for Advanced Transit and Highways (PATH) Program of the University of California. Deliverables associated with the project include (I) a protocol report on assessing pedestrian exposure, which is accompanied by a training curriculum and an evaluation of manual pedestrian counting methods; (II) an evaluation and test of automated pedestrian counting methods; and (III) a report on strategies to create a statewide pedestrian exposure database and (IV) a protocol for Pedestrian Exposure Study in Alameda County. The deliverables are discussed in more detail below.
