NYSMPO Shared Cost Initiative Program
Integrating Safety
into Transportation Planning
Overview
Transportation
agencies, whether they are involved in the planning, design, or operation of
transportation facilities and services, share a common goal: that the public
must be able to travel safely by whatever mode they choose. Achieving that goal
is reflected by specific efforts to reduce the number and severity of crashes
and crash outcomes.
The purpose of the
forum was to provide an opportunity for transportation planners from across New
York State to learn how they can contribute to improved safety outcomes by
integrating a safety perspective into their transportation plans and programs.
During the forum, planners were able to engage in a dialogue with others in the
safety business: engineers and operators; those addressing driver behavior; and
those in the enforcement and emergency response business. Resource people from
within and outside New York and representatives of Federal agencies also had
the opportunity to participate and share current practice.
More information about
the forum is available from the Program
Brochure and from the Proceedings
documentation. In addition, the presentations given at the forum are made
available below.
