While several strategies are being considered to alleviate the increasing urban traffic congestion, many metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs) have started to invest in non-motorized mode infrastructure to promote the use of spatial_multivariate_non-motorized_injury_modelwalking and bicycling modes (Pucher et al., 1999, Metropolitan Transportation Commission, 2009, Southern California Association of Governments, 2012).spatial_multivariate_non-motorized_injury_model

On the other hand, man spatial_multivariate_non-motorized_injury_modely cities in Europe and other nations boast substantially higher non-motorized shares in terms of trips and mileage (Bassett et al., 2008).The higher nspatial_multivariate_non-motorized_injury_model

In this context, Beck el al. (2007) have found that, relative to passenger vehicle occupants, bicyclists and pedestrians in the U. spatial_multivariate_non-motorized_injury_modelS. are 2.3 and 1.5 times, respectively, more likely to be fatally injured on a given trip.

Overall, these studies clearly reveal the1underperformance of the U.S. in terms of pedestrian and bicyclistspatial_multivariate_non-motorized_injury_model

At an absolute level, about 4280 pedestrians and 618 bicyclists were killed in traffic accidents in the yOn Accommodating Spatial Dependence in Bicycle and Pedestrian Injury Counts by Severity LevelSriram Narayanamoorthy’Parsons Brinckerhoff400 sw Sixth A spatial_multivariate_non-motorized_injury_model mode mileage comprises only 0.9% of total travel mileage.To summarize, the promotion of non-motorized modes of transportation should involve, as one essential element, an understanding of the risk factors associated with pedestrians and bicyclist-related injuries. This can allow the identification spatial_multivariate_non-motorized_injury_modelof high risk crash environmental settings and inform the design of appropriate transportation policy countermeasures. Accordingly, there have been sevspatial_multivariate_non-motorized_injury_model

The spatial unit we use to characterize a “neighborhood" is the Census tract. We do so because the more disaggregate spatial units (roadway street segment, intersection.

Besides, the Census directly provides socio-economic data at the level of the Census tract, facilitating analysis at this spatial scale.1Two important issues are of significance in the current research. First, the reason for our emphasis on the count of pedes spatial_multivariate_non-motorized_injury_modeltrians and bicyclists injured by severity’ level is to acknowledge that accident costs vary' substantially by severity level (see Wang et at., 2011).spatial_multivariate_non-motorized_injury_model
