Abstract

The American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) Board of Directors first approved this document in December 1997 by more than the required two-thirds majority vote. It was revised and updated with current data in December 2004, but the emphasis areas and strategies identified in the original plan remain the same. This Strategic Highway Safety Plan (SHSP) and the tools developed to facilitate its implementation offer state and local transportation and safety agencies a life-saving blueprint ready for application in developing comprehensive highway safety plans. The SHSP is presented in two sections. Section I, The AASHTO Initiative, discusses the implementation strategies, the AASHTO Lead States Program, the scope of the problem, funding, and the safety goal. Section II, The Plan Elements, addresses each of the following elements: drivers, special users (walking and bicycle travel), vehicles, highways, and emergency medical services. (Author/publisher)
