Roadside Safety is a critical element of road safety. This webinar is designed to provide a very basic introduction to roadside safety in general, and especially to items used to create Forgiving Roads as recommended in the Safe System Approach that is endorsed by the UNRSC Decade of Action. Attendees will be exposed to all aspects of Roadside Safety hardware, including longitudinal barriers, crash cushions, terminals and transitions. They also will be taught the importance of site specific data to determine the most appropriate product for a particular application as well as the current status of the European and United States testing criteria for these items.

Advances in Flexible Pavements

This IRF Webinar addresses the following questions: How can recurring and non-recurring congestion be identified and managed in real-time across a vast roadway network? Where are bottlenecks that people and goods are stuck in and what is the cost of their delay? This webinar will discuss how GPS probe data is produced and archived on a minute by minute basis to manage congestion around the world.

IRF eLearning Webinar Series presents "Minimizing Fraud and Corruption on Transportation Projects", a presentation followed by Q&A with Mr. Michael Avery. Fraud and corruption in the road transport industry causes immense losses time, resources and money. Learning what these underhanded practices are and how to combat them is critical knowledge for any road authority, contractor or decision-maker.

Big Data in transportation has taken off, although the exact definition of this concept is still widely debated among researchers, practitioners, and government officials. Big Data usually refers to enormous volumes of information of diverse structures (or lack of structure) that cannot be analyzed using conventional relational databases and data mining techniques. Big Data for transportation can be generated by sources such as smartphones, digital photography, video monitoring systems, GPS, real-time control systems in automobiles, automatic vehicles, social media, etc.
