##### CASE STUDY

# Curbing school zone crashes in the 5th largest U.S. school district 

After an alarming rise in crashes impacting students walking to school, Las Vegas Valley officials needed to quickly improve school zone traffic safety. **But to identify high-risk areas and ensure improvements would be effective, they needed up-to-date traffic data on 378 school zones — and traditional traffic study methods could delay improvements by months while offering limited insight into how safety risk factors may fluctuate by time of day or academic calendar dates**.
