Highway Safety Program Overview
Transportation Engineering Workshop
Wednesday, June 10th, 2015
Roadmap for Today
• Summarize where we have been
• Identify where we want to go
• Discuss how we are going to get there
W h e r e h a v e w e b e e n ?
First, Some Good News
• Historically, crashes in Ohio and nationwide have been going down
• 2013 was Ohio’s safest year in modern history
• Nationally, Ohio has one of the lowest crash rates in the nation

INTERSECTION
Where are roadway departure crashes most likely to occur?
What are drivers most likely to hit when they leave the road?
When do Roadway Departure crashes tend to occur?
Roadway Departure Fact Sheets
W h e r e a r e w e g o i n g ?
We are in it together
• All states are required to develop a Strategic Highway Safety Plan
• Includes all roadway users
• Managed by a network of stakeholders
Steering Committee
• ODOT leads the steering committee with quarterly meetings
• Review updated crash data in
key emphasis areas
• Track progress on crash reduction strategies
Emphasis Areas
Performance Measures and Targets
Performance Measures
• Annually, Ohio has seen the following reductions from 2003-2013
ODOT is adopting a goal of a minimum 2% reduction for all categories over the next five years
Emerging Trends: Older Drivers
• 10,000 people a day will turn 60 between 2011 and 2029
• These people will live and drive longer than their predecessors
• Visual, physical and cognitive impairments
Emerging Trend: Biking, Walking, Transit
National Realtors Association 2013 Survey:
• 60% favor mixed-use, walkable neighborhoods
• 41% are interested in improving public transportation
• 29% prefer communities where people don’t have to drive long distances
• We also know that more teens and young adults are delaying driving or choosing not to drive.
Emerging Trend: Distracted Driving
• 4X more likely to crash while talking on cell phone
• 8X more likely to crash while texting
• 10% of Americans using a cell phone while driving (NHTSA)
• Hands free is not risk free
H o w d o w e s h a p e a s a fe r f u t u r e ?
Systematic Safety Improvements
ODOT sets aside about $10M-$20M each year for systematic safety improvements. These are low-cost safety treatments that can be implemented across many miles for thousands of dollars.
National studies show these types of treatments can significantly reduce crashes for less cost.
Systematic Safety: Backplates
In 2009, ODOT spent $15 million to upgrade 900 signals including energy-efficient LED bulbs and battery backups.
• In Ohio, the investment has reduced rear-end crashes by 9% and angle crashes by 13% (average per location).
• Now a statewide requirement for all new signals
Systematic Safety: Rumble Stripes
Ohio installed edge line rumble stripes at 420 locations in 2010.
• 15% reduction in fatalities
• 26% reduction in fixed-object crashes
• 33% reduction in nighttime crashes on roads with lights (increase reflectivity of pavement markings)
Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP)
ODOT has one of the largest programs in the country:
• $102M in state and federal funds aimed addressing spot locations.
• Funding available for any public road and any improvement that can be tied to crash reductions
• Accept safety applications twice a year
• Applications reviewed by multi-disciplinary committees at the district and at central office.
• Typically $5M or less (maximum $10M)
GIS Crash Analysis Tool (GCAT) • Available For:
• ODOT
• MPOs
• City/County Engineers
• Law Enforcement Agencies
• Pre-qualified Safety Study Consultants
• Tool allows for several different user expertise levels to query crashes
• Designed to be simple for the occasional user and robust enough for ODOT Safety Analysis needs
The Map Room
• These maps provide Ohio's safety and priority locations. They are mapped statewide. However, you can retrieve the maps for specific regions by typing the desired ODOT District Number, County Name, or Township Name into the filter
• TIMS is ODOT's web-mapping portal where you can discover information about Ohio's transportation system, create maps, and share information.
TAKE THE PLEDGE The fight to end distracted driving starts with you. Develop a plan and make the commitment to drive phone-free today.
TALK
summary
We are trending in the right direction. ODOT has developed some target goals and implemented systematic approaches to help us reach the zero fatality mark, but it really is a multi-agency approach.
The next round of safety applications will be accepted through the end of September. We will be happy to help you with the steps involved in submitting your application!
