Project Purpose

The purpose of this project is to address an ongoing safety challenge at rural stop-controlled intersections. Crashes at these intersections continue to represent a significant share of transportation fatalities and injuries throughout rural Minnesota.  This project will provide conflict warning systems at selected intersections to help reduce these fatalities in line with Minnesota’s Toward Zero Deaths safety program. 

You can learn more about the Rural Intersection Conflict Warning Systems (RICWS) deployment by clicking Project Information.
