Abstract:This case study discusses how the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) has used the Highway Safety Manual (HSM) as part of their Plans Preparation Manual (PPM) criteria, used when planning highway projects. With the recent publication of the HSM, FDOT initiated a pilot project to investigate the differences in project cost based on FDOT PPM standards compared to AASHTO Green Book standards to use as a tool for decision making and alternative selection during the project development process, with specific emphasis on the evaluation of safety costs utilizing the HSM predictive method.
