CMF / CRF Details

CMF ID: 8861

Install Red-light indicator lights

Description: Red-light indicator lights are mounted on the signal head or on the mast arm. The indicator activates simultaneously with the red interval, allowing an enforcement officer downstream to identify if a vehicle has violated the red interval.

Prior Condition:  4-legged signalized intersection without RLIL

Category: Advanced technology and ITS

Study: Safety Evaluation of Red-Light Indicator Lights in Florida, Himes et al., 2017

Comments:Disaggregated CMF for 20% or more of total entering volume from minor approaches The number of crashes in the after period were not reported in this study, however, they have been recorded as 300 to give 10 points as a beneift of doubt for one or more of the following: (1) number of miles/sites in the reference/treatment group, (2) number of crashes in the references/treatment group, (3) reporting AADTs for the aggregate dataset but not for the disaggragate dataset used for CMF development.
