Abstract: This data collection effort is consistent with DOT's Strategic Goal of Safety, specifically for improving safety on rural roads identified in the draft U.S. Department of Transportation Strategic Plan for Fiscal Years 2012-2016: •Encourage State and local agencies to adopt data-driven, comprehensive safety strategies and collaborate with stakeholders such as the Federal land management agencies, local, and tribal governments to improve safety levels; and •Provide national leadership in delivering safety programs and products to tribal communities, gateway communities, and local governments. Many rural roads are under the jurisdiction of local agencies, which often do not have the resources needed to adequately address the safety problems on the roads they maintain. The findings of this data collection effort will help identify States that could use technical assistance for distributing funding to local agencies and identify practices/processes states can consider for use in their safety program delivery process.
