This report documents two efforts to support CDOT in the area of Safety Performance Function (SPF) development. The first involved the data collection and development of SPFs for five categories of ramp terminals at diamond interchanges. The second effort involved estimating the overdispersion parameters for a number of existing SPFs already in use by CDOT for various roadway segment categories.
The Greening Government Research Project is Phase 1 of a two-phased research approach to identify how CDOT can achieve the goals and objectives mandated in Governor Ritter's recently signed executive orders on greening state government.
This research report used a pilot project to examine the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA) and how Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) transportation improvement projects may result in noise and vibration levels that could affect migratory birds. The pilot project examined the vibration and noise levels that occurred as a result of standard maintenance activities.
