                3.0 CONCLUSION
As discussed earlier, the road safety audit program is conducted to generate improvement recommendations and countermeasures for roadway segments demonstrating a history of, or potential for a high incidence of motor vehicle crashes. The safety issues identified during the audit and documented in this report along with recommended strategies should improve the overall safety of Aquetong and Windy Bush Roads. These remedial strategies can be implemented as time and budget limitations permit. The study area is identified under PennDOT’s Section 148 Planned Safety Projects and therefore, implementation is eligible for Highway Safety Improvement Program funding. Additionally, many of the strategies identified can be implemented through routine maintenance.

Given that the contributing factors for some crashes are “running the stop sign” and “too fast for condition”, engineering strategies alone cannot effectively address the traffic safety issues identified along the corridor. Therefore, enforcement and education are necessary components to address the human behavioral aspects to effectively reduce the number of crashes occurring.
