This chapter provides an overview on the methodologies that can be applied to understand and quantify the effects of winter weather and maintenance operations on road safety. The chapter also summarizes the latest findings on the effects of winter road weather conditions and winter road maintenance operations and demonstrates the applications of various safety effect models for quantifying the benefits of winter road maintenance. Both highly aggregate and disaggregate models are covered, which differ in spatial and temporal modeling units and data requirements. A quantitative understanding of the relationship between highway safety and winter weather and road maintenance is essential to the development of cost‐effective, sustainable winter road maintenance programs, policies and standards, and operational strategies.
