The state of Wyoming has frequent severe wind conditions, particularly in the southeast corner of the state along Interstate 80 and Interstate 25. The high winds are problematic in many ways including, interfering with the performance of the transportation system, blowing vehicles off the road, or even overturning high profile trucks, which can cause economic losses and safety concerns for road users. The primary objectives of this research involve two parts: First, develop a statistical model that reveals the correlation between likelihood of overturning trucks and the weather conditions. Second, use the result of the statistical model to develop a data driven operation plan for Wyoming Department of Transportation (WYDOT) to use in the winter season at a hazardous high wind corridor to improve truck safety.
