Evaluation of pedestrian crossing-related crashes at undesignated midblock locations using structured crash data and report narratives

AbstractThe present study intends to augment existing knowledge on pedestrian crossing behavior at non-intersection areas by analyzing crash data. The crash analysis was pivoted on the age and gend...
