Abstract

Accidents occurring on congested urban freeways can have enormous impacts in terms of lost commuter time. This paper presents an appropriate statistical analysis of urban freeway accident frequency and duration and discusses how this analysis can be used to guide management strategies that seek to reduce the traffic-related impacts of accidents. The findings and demonstration of analysis procedures should be of considerable value to ongoing and future studies in this area.
