Trumbull County Rural Intersection Warning System

Description

This project will install active intersection warning systems at rural intersections with safety issues and concerns. The system consists of field equipment at key intersections that detects a vehicle's presence that cannot be seen by oncoming vehicles due to poor geometric field conditions. The field equipment will send a notification to additional field equipment that will alert drivers with information indicating when entry into an intersection is unsafe. The intersection of Austintown Warren Road and Salt Springs Road is a candidate location for such a system. Detection equipment can be installed on Austintown Warren Road on the approaches to the intersection. A warning sign can be installed at the intersection to provide warnings to drivers on Salt Springs Road about approaching vehicles from Austintown Warren Road. Similar systems could be installed at other locations with high intersection crash history.
