The potential for applying low-cost accident counter-measures in residential areas was studied where vehicular and pedestrian volumes were relatively low. This part (1) presents a summary of the procedure by which counter-measures were evaluated. In part 2 the counter-measures are detailed. Most of the fifty-three counter-measures identified had been applied in the UK although not necessarily in residential areas or as a single counter-measure. Despite the widespread use of some counter-measures, little evaluation had been undertaken of their effectiveness. Although the evaluation was subjective, it allowed the adoption of alternative judgements and assessments of their implications.
