Effect of Dynamic Envelope Pavement Markings on Vehicle Driver Behavior at a Highway-Rail Grade Crossing

Abstract: The United States Department of Transportation’s (USDOT) John A. Volpe National Transportation Systems Center (Volpe Center), under the direction of the USDOT Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) Office of Research and Development (R&D), recently completed a study on the use of pavement markings to reduce instances of vehicles stopping on the tracks at grade crossings. Specifically, the study evaluated the effectiveness of pavement markings placed within the dynamic envelope, the region between and immedi… Show more

“…The traditional countermeasures for regulating drivers’ behavior at grade crossings focus on the use of signs (Fambro et al, 1994; Yang et al, 2019), pavement markings (Gabree et al, 2014), and rumble strips (Hore-Lacy, 2008) on the approach road. While these approaches are important, they do not provide instant messages and are vulnerable to being ignored due to inattentional blindness (Costa et al, 2014) and failed understanding (Hore-Lacy, 2008; Jeng, 2005).…”
