Special Report 2016: Wildlife-Vehicle Conflict Hotspots along California Highways (2009-2015): Carcasses

This report provides an overview of wildlife-vehicle conflict (WVC) hotspots on California highways, based on carcass observations in the California Roadkill Observation System (http://wildlifecrossing.net/california). Analytical details are available from the report author upon request. A subsequent report will focus on WVC hotspots from the point of view of crash and other incident data collected by state safety agencies.

Final Report: Interstate-280 Wildlife Connectivity Research Project

This represents the Final Report for the project. It contains the basic findings from the 2-year study, and is an updated version of the draft report (7/2013). The report includes the results from the deer movement study, the wildlife-vehicle collision study (unsuccessful crossing of freeway), and the wildlife-camera study (safe passages under freeway). It also includes recommendations for reducing wildlife-vehicle collisions and improving driver safety on I-280.

Final Report

Final Report for the Road Effects Zone Project

We developed a detailed conceptual model of the Road Effect Zone based on an extensive literature review. We then developed a simple GIS extension as a pilot of a REZ model in GIS. Finally, we developed a high-resolution REZ model for traffic noise propagation and effects analysis. This project was supported by federal funding through the University Transportation Centers.
