Abstract We live in an age of data, where decisions about the allocation of limited resources are based on quantifiable benefits. But you don’t need to be a data expert to be able to create practices and procedures that will help you to: Identify relationships between safety, roadway features, and user exposure; Recognize location characteristics and their relationship to crashes; Pinpoint appropriate countermeasures and strategies; Evaluate the effectiveness of safety treatments. The best part? Extra bandwidth is not necessarily needed. Technical assistance from the Roadway Safety Data Program (RSDP) focuses on providing tailored, hands-on technical assistance to individual agencies or disciplines, whether State or local in scope. We can show you how to streamline your processes and improve efficiency across the board, which means maximizing the effectiveness of the decisions you make every day -- and making your roadways safer.
