Book AASHTO Strategic Highway Safety Plan

Download or read book AASHTO Strategic Highway Safety Plan written by American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In late 1996 and early 1997, the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) Committee for Highway Traffic Safety, with the assistance of the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), and the Transportation Research Board (TRB) Committee on Transportation Safety Management, assembled a group of national safety experts in driver, vehicle, and highway issues from various organizations. The purpose was to develop a strategic plan for highway safety that would impact the nation's present and predicted statistics on vehicle-related death and injury. The participants included a range of stakeholders representing both the private and public sectors. This document contains the AASHTO Strategic Highway Safety Plan that was developed. It not only addresses what some consider the traditional AASHTO concerns for infrastructure, but also driver, occupant, vehicle, and post-crash responsibilities in non-infrastructure areas. Moreover, this major safety initiative is built on safety programs already in existence. The safety strategies are considered cost-effective and acceptable to a significant majority of Americans. A draft implementation plan was also developed for each strategy of the initiative. The critical strategies cover 22 key emphasis areas: instituting graduated licensing for young drivers; ensuring drivers are licensed and fully competent; sustaining proficiency in older drivers; curbing aggressive driving; reducing impaired driving; keeping drivers alert; increasing driver safety awareness; increasing seat belt usage and improving airbag effectiveness; making walking and street crossing easier; ensuring safer bicycle travel; improving motorcycle safety and increasing motorcycle awareness; making truck travel safer; increasing safety enhancements in vehicles; reducing vehicle-train crashes; keeping vehicles on the roadway; minimizing the consequences of leaving the road; improving the design and operation of highway intersections; reducing head-on and across-median crashes; designing safer work zones; enhancing emergency medical capabilities to increase survivability; improving information and decision support systems; and creating more effective processes and safety management systems.

Hwy. Admin¿s. (FHWA) Hwy. Safety Improvement Program, authorizing $5.1 billion for 2006 through 2009. SAFETEA-LU also added requirements for states to develop strategic hwy. safety plans that cover all aspects of hwy. safety, including infrastructure, behavioral (education and enforcement), and emergency medical services projects; develop crash data analysis systems; and publicly report on the top 5% of hazardous locations on all their public roads. This testimony provides preliminary information on the implementation of HSIP since SAFETEA-LU. Illustrations.

Book Highway Safety Improvement Program

Download or read book Highway Safety Improvement Program written by United States. Government Accountability Office and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About 43,000 people died and another 290,000 were seriously injured on the nation's roads in 2006. To reduce these numbers, the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU) nearly doubled funding for the Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA) Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP). SAFETEA-LU added requirements for states to develop strategic highway safety plans that include four key elements and to publicly report on at least the top 5 percent of hazardous locations on all of their public roads. The act also set aside funds for a legacy rail-highway crossing program and a new high-risk rural road program. As requested, GAO examined (1) states' implementation of HSIP following SAFETEA-LU, (2) HSIP results to date, and (3) FHWA's guidance and assistance to states. GAO analyzed plans from 25 states, including 19 randomly selected states and 6 states that GAO visited. GAO also interviewed FHWA and state safety officials.
