Douglas County Crash Dashboard – Douglas County, CO

project OVERVIEW

Y2K worked with Douglas County to create an interactive crash dashboarding tool to empower the County to maximize their crash data analysis efforts in house. The dashboard was developed by incorporating crash data from the police department and additional information from the county, such as roadway classifications and traffic volumes. This project involved weekly coordination meetings with the County to determine impactful visualizations that address their specific requirements, such as examining motorcycle crash trends and utilizing CDOT Safety Performance Function (SPF) models to identify level of service of safety (LOSS) at key intersections.

 The County has used this data to proceed with a feasibility study to identify countermeasures at an unsignalized LOSS IV intersection. Y2K also delivered comprehensive training to the Douglas County team, enabling them to effectively utilize the dashboard for conducting interactive analysis, applying multiple variable filters to crash data, monthly and quarterly interdepartmental reporting, calculating LOSS, and identifying key trends.
