This report represents a planning effort to support the local counties and municipalities in both New Jersey and Pennsylvania in addressing the safety and mobility issues along their arterial road network. This network can typically experience congested conditions due to high traffic volumes and or limited capacity. Accidents occurring along these congested facilities not only result in injuries but also add to the congestion. The goal is to identify potential costeffective improvement strategies, which will reduce congestion and accidents and improve the safety and mobility of goods and ople. Working with the local county planning commissions, DVRPC selected six locations to study. For each of these locations, field views to review transportation problem locations were undertaken, and consequently technical analysis to quantify the identified transportation problem areas and document practical solutions. Level of service analyses and accident analyses were conducted for each selected area.Geographic Area Covered: West Fallowfield Township, Chester County; Ridley Township, Delaware County; and the City of Philadelphia in Pennsylvania. Cinnaminson Township, Burlington County; Voorhees Township, Camden County; West Windsor Township, Mercer County in New Jersey.
Key Words: intersection analysis, traffic congestion, potential improvement scenarios, accidents, crash analysis, level of service analysis
