`Abstract
`
`There is a tendency for each engineering community to think of safety only in the
`context of its own system. Rail engineers think of the safety of the existing rail system
`and road engineers of the existing road systems. The important safety, however, is that
`of the entire population. And that safety is considerably higher on rails than on roads.
`The research question then arises as to whether it is possible to correct an existing road
`safety problem by design of a rail system. Given the human lives at stake, it is a
`question worth answering.
`A design is presented for correction of the highest death rate road in a particular urban
`area by installation of a light rail system. The road is a 2.6-mile (4.2-km) stretch of urban
`arterial that has had 18 fatalities in the past thirteen years. The light rail system is
`shown to be a possible solution to the problem, both from the standpoint of design and
`from that of economics. It is predicted that the new design should prevent 1.25 fatalities
`per year.
