Camden Nagel of Noblesville, Indiana, and Tyler Hunt of Adrian, Michigan, reviewed 84 hours of video footage from the intersections to compile data for "Evaluating the Performance of Traffic Control Devices in Trail Crossing Intersections."
The data included the number of interactions between vehicles and trail users at each intersection, as well as the results of those interactions.
The analysis and report are part of an ongoing partnership between the City of Fort Wayne and Trine University to help improve safety at trail crossing intersections throughout the city.
“Every session we’ve had, we’ve learned something new,” said Dan Avery, executive director of the Northeastern Indiana Regional Coordinating Council.
The partnership allows Trine students to apply their classroom knowledge to a real-world situation, build their resumes and develop their professional network.
Dawn Ritchie, Greenways Manager for the City of Fort Wayne, asked the students to present their report to her team in the spring.
Three administrators from Trine University’s College of Graduate and Professional Studies (CGPS) will share their success with using technology to support significant growth in an upcoming national webinar.
Trine University Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) students and faculty presented research at the American Physical Therapy Association’s largest national conference, the Combined Sections Meeting, held in Anaheim, California, Feb. 12-14.
A Trine University administrator and a graduating senior are included in this year’s Greater Fort Wayne Business Weekly Forty Under 40.
