Dr. Goddard’s research focuses on safe roadway design and reducing traffic deaths and injuries, in particular how the interactions of transportation culture, behavior, and infrastructure affect pedestrians, bicyclists, and other vulnerable road users. Dr. Goddard has recent and on-going research related to wildfire evacuation, the rapid influx of technology in transportation, and other issues of engineering and planning in the current era of climate change.
