Course Description

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) recently unveiled a unique site to help local agencies reduce serious and fatal crashes on their roadways. The Local Road Safety Plan Do-It-Yourself Website includes resources local agencies and their partners need to create these lifesaving plans. Approximately 40% of the nation’s fatalities occur on locally-owned roads – an average of 12,000 deaths each year. Local road safety plans (LRSPs) are an FHWA proven safety countermeasure local agencies can use to identify at-risk locations on their roadways and deploy cost-effective safety solutions. 

This session will introduce Local Road Safety Plans (LRSP), as well as orient users to the DIY site and its many resources, templates, and tools. Attendees will leave with a better awareness of the steps in creating an LRSP, including how to Identify Stakeholders, Use Safety Data, Choose Proven Solutions, and Implement Solutions. 

Transportation planners, elected officials, public works, and others with an interest in improving rural and local road safety are encouraged to attend.
