Book excerpt: This paper describes some suggested revisions in the format of and method and procedures for compiling the Annual Highway Safety Work Program (AHSWP) required of the states by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Prior to fiscal year 1972, the states were required to send little information to the NHTSA (then the National Highway Safety Bureau) regarding activities and expenditures for future highway safety projects. Following the introduction of the Annual Work Program, however, the states were required to submit multi-year and annual plans and projections in a format similar to that of the Planning, Programming, Budgeting Systems (PPBS) models adopted during the 1960s by many federal agencies. It is suggested that problems with the AHSWP, both those caused by the system itself and those resulting from a lack of confidence in it by state program administrators, have impeded effective program management in the states. Revisions-to the AHSWP, which are based upon some of the data elements and information requirements of the Program Information Reporting System, the Design Manual for State Traffic Records Systems, and certain aspects of the management by objectives concepts now embraced by the NHTSA, are felt to be an asset to state highway safety program management. Examples of the new approach are given.

Book excerpt: The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration requires each state to file an Annual Highway Safety Work Program as a prerequisite for obtaining federal section 402 safety monies. However, the work program serves as more than a mechanism for obtaining funds; it induces planning, programming, and budgeting of highway safety projects. The Commonwealth of Virginia has endorsed the work program concept and is continually striving to improve its highway safety planning process. The most recent improvement in Virginia's highway safety planning process was embodied in a report by Ferguson and Simpson that introduced the concept of "Problem Identification/Management by Objectives" to the state's work program. Local highway safety commissions and state traffic safety agencies were asked to complete their annual work program submissions using this concept, the intent being to enhance the quality of their planned highway safety activities. This report attempts to further implement the concept by offering refinements to the Ferguson-Simpson approach. Under these refinements, the local commissions and state agencies are not asked to generate much of the problem identification data; the necessary information is provided them. These data should aid the local commissions and state agencies in identifying problem areas needing attention. This approach was well received when first used in preparing Virginia's FY '77 Annual Highway Safety Work Program. However, the methods of compiling and disseminating information proved quite laborious and time-consuming. Therefore, this report recommends further revisions be made to the process by automating various parts of the retrieval, assimilation, and dissemination stages.
