Any major light rail project needs to consider the safety of pedestrians and drivers along its impacted region. The pedestrian and driver safety impact of the Exposition Light Rail (Expo Line) project is of particular importance, due to its impact on sensitive and vulnerable populations such as school children and elderly pedestrians. At-grade rail crossings, as shown by national accident data, pose a high risk for pedestrians and motorists. Human factors and safety considerations in the design of highway-rail crossings play a vital role in reducing those risks significantly. This project attempts to analyze the human factors and safety design criteria for the Western Avenue and Crenshaw Boulevard at-grade intersections along the Expo Line.
