SUMMARY:Road Safety Champion Program Core Module #2: Anatomy of a Crash – Understanding Human Factors
DESCRIPTION:This two-hour virtual training will provide an overview of human factors principles . It will allow the non-expert in human factors to more effectively bring consideration of the road user’s capabilities and limitations into policies and practices. Knowing how road users interact with their vehicle\, the roadway and other road users can also provide useful insights into roadway safety. Armed with that knowledge\, construction and maintenance personnel\, planners\, engineers\, public health professionals and law enforcement can work together to target appropriate countermeasures to help reduce injury crashes.

SUMMARY:Barrier Basics – virtual training
DESCRIPTION:This 2.5-hour virtual training explores the basics of longitudinal roadside barriers. Together we will discuss why and when barriers are needed on the roadway\, review the types and characteristics of barriers\, and find out where to locate guidance for placing and installing barriers. Finally\, we will review maintenance requirements for roadside barriers and discover the important role maintenance plays in keeping the barriers performing as they should. \nYou’ll have a chance to use resources\, such as the AASHTO Roadside Design Guide as well as Nevada-specific design guides and specifications\, to answer questions and make decisions about real-world scenarios you might encounter when placing barriers.

SUMMARY:Managing Roadway Drainage Systems Virtual Training
DESCRIPTION:Drainage is one of the key asset classifications that transportation system owners are expected to maintain. The condition of drainage features and structures may deteriorate over time due to erosion and sediment buildup. Drainage maintenance is critical for extending the life of pavements\, as drainage assets control water flow along maintainable pathways. Routine inspection of drainage systems identifies needed maintenance and lessens the potential for flooding. This includes inspections of shoulder\, ditches\, and pipes and culverts. \nThis 2-hour virtual training teaches you to manage drainage systems effectively and efficiently by explaining: \n\nWhat types of drainage assets need to be inspected.\nWhat information is collected during an inspection.\nHow to determine if the condition requires a critical\, major\, or routine maintenance response.\nWhat treatments are appropriate\, given the type of drainage asset and its current condition.\n\nThe training follows the guidelines and structure of the Federal Highway Administration’s Maintenance of Drainage Features for Safety.
