Recent research reveals that socioeconomic factors of the
neighborhoods where road users live and where pedestrian-vehicle
crashes occur are important in determining the severity of the
crashes, with the former having a greater influence. Hence, road
safety countermeasures, especially those focusing on the road
users, should be targeted at these high risk neighborhoods. Big
Data Analytics in Traffic and Transportation Engineering: Emerging
Research and Opportunities is an essential reference source that
discusses access to transportation and examines vehicle-pedestrian
crashes, specifically in relation to socioeconomic factors that
influence them, main predictors, factors that contribute to crash
severity, and the enhancement of pedestrian safety measures.
Featuring research on topics such as public transport,
accessibility, and spatial distribution, this book is ideally
designed for policymakers, transportation engineers, road safety
designers, transport planners and managers, professionals,
academicians, researchers, and public administrators.
