About This Course

In this online engineering PDH course, “Complete Streets” strategies to improve traffic safety are presented.

Complete Streets strategies consist of an iterative process that involves:

  • Understanding the community and network context.
  • Identifying safety, connectivity, and equity concerns.
  • Implementing improvements over time.
  • Evaluating impacts by monitoring and measuring success.

The first half of this course is devoted to providing background in some tools that are useful in implementing Complete Streets strategies, such as road diets, speed cameras, and pedestrian refuge islands.

The last half of the course provides six hypothetical scenarios of how common arterial corridor configurations can be transformed to accommodate the needs of different users by implementing Complete Streets strategies.
