      SummaryIn 2022, Cincinnati implemented a quick-build solution by installing a preformed thermoplastic curb extension on a street within its high-injury network. This temporary measure was aimed at addressing an immediate safety concern until a street rightsizing project could be implemented. The City saw decreases in the 85th percentile speed and the average speed as a result of the project. This project offers a useful model for communities wanting to use quick-build projects to calm traffic  quickly and cost-effectively in areas with urgent safety needs. This approach is effective when there is a need for large scale design improvements that cannot be immediately implemented.
    Washington State Injury Minimization and Speed Management Case Study
    
  
  
      SummarySpeeding, exceeding the posted speed limits, or traveling too fast for conditions was a contributing factor in almost 29 percent of all fatalities in 2021. Of the 42,939 fatalities that occurred on our Nation’s roadways that year, 12,330 were speeding-related—an increase of 7.9 percent from 2020 (Stewart 2023). Speed is fundamental in dictating injury risk for all road users in any crash, especially for vulnerable road users (VRUs) such as pedestrians and bicyclists (Corben 2020).This is one of ten case studies accompanying the Safe System Approach for Speed Management Report.
