The Safety Circuit Rider for the Technology Transfer Program uses crash data to locate high-incident sites along roadways and assist communities in finding low-cost roadway safety improvements.
Adam Kirk, Safety Circuit Rider, meets with cities and counties to review the Safety Circuit Program and conduct Road Safety Assessments. This service includes working with local governments to remove fixed objects such as trees, brush, stumps, etc., and to install signage per MUTCD guidelines.
While the free technical assistance offered by the Safety Circuit Rider is available to every community across the Commonwealth, the program selects counties with high crash rates to focus on each year.
Some of the work in these Kentucky counties includes:
- Clearing and correcting water runoff and drainage
- Repairing shoulder drop-off and width
- Removing fixed objects such as trees and stumps
- Clearing vegetation around signs and intersections
Would your community benefit from free technical assistance?
