The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) sponsored the development of a document to provide a reference tool for designers, area engineers, maintenance foremen, and others with information on crash characteristics for rural roads in Texas with an emphasis on low-cost countermeasures for low-volume roads. The report, entitled Treatments for Crashes on Rural Two-Lane Highways in Texas (Report 4048-2), includes information on rural crashes and how to conduct a crash study in Texas. The document presents discussion on low-cost safety treatments used on highways and at intersections along with their known effectiveness. The treatments discussed for rural highways are listed in Table 2, and the treatments discussed for rural intersections are listed in Table 3. Experiences with selected treatments in Texas, including whether the treatment would be nonconsidered elsewhere, are also included in the report. Treatments in use in Texas that are discussed in the document are listed in Table 4.
