CARTEEH and SAFE-D student wins Daniel B Fambro Student Paper Award from the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE)

Soheil Sohrabi from Texas A&M University, College, Station, TX, USA, won the Daniel B. Fambro Student Paper Award for his paper, “Impacts of Red-Light Cameras on Intersection Safety: A Bayesian Hierarchical Spatial Model.” The paper focuses on enforcing red-light runners, which is known as an engineering solution to enhance intersection safety. However, the efficiency of automated Red-Light Camera (RLC) programs is always questioned mainly because of the inaccuracy in post-implementation reviews and difficulties with the financial viability of the program. A model is proposed to capture the effect of RLCs on intersection safety by including the spatial dependency between intersections crashes, unobserved heterogeneity, and the spillover effect of enforcing cameras.

ITE is an international membership association of transportation professionals who work to improve safety and mobility for all transportation system users and help build smart and livable communities. Through its products and services, ITE promotes professional development and career advancement for its members, supports and encourages education, identifies necessary research, develops technical resources including standards and recommended practices, develops public awareness programs, and serves as a conduit for the exchange of professional information. ITE develops the next generation of transportation professionals through its K–12 STEM program and its more than 150 student chapters.

Founded in 1930, ITE is a community of transportation professionals including, transportation engineers, transportation planners, consultants, educators, technologists, and researchers. Through meetings, seminars, publications, and a network of nearly 16,000 members working in more than 90 countries, ITE connects you to a world of ideas, people, and resources.
