Abstract

In cooperation with Fayette County Schools, an evaluation of traffic flow and safety was conducted at school sites in Fayette County. The purpose of this evaluation was to eliminate potential safety risks currently existing at a number of schools and to reduce traffic congestion in and around school properties.

The evaluation was completed in two main phases. First, each school in the district was asked to respond to a survey questionnaire. Second, six schools were identified by Fayette County Schools as having traffic flow or safety problems that could benefit from detailed evaluation. The responses to the survey questionnaire were compiled and used in these investigations. An on-site investigation was conducted at these six schools and an evaluation was completed by assessing the current conditions and offering recommendations for improvements. A set of maps was also prepared explaining any changes recommended for each of the school properties.
