Abstract:The purpose of this report is to explore the relationship between the Safe System approach and the HSIP. This report focuses on the two major components of the HSIP: the States’ Strategic Highway Safety Plan (SHSP) and the program of highway safety improvement projects (or States’ HSIP), as well as foundational elements of the HSIP that influence both program areas. The report first defines the principles and core elements of the Safe System approach. The report then examines foundational elements of the HSIP, State SHSP, and State HSIP as compared to the Safe System principles and presents areas of alignment, as well as opportunities and noteworthy practices. The report concludes with a discussion of next steps for Federal and State safety stakeholders to advance implementation of the Safe System approach through these existing safety programs. The primary target audience for this report is Federal and State safety stakeholders involved in the State SHSP and HSIP. The report may also benefit other safety stakeholders that have a vested interest in these existing safety programs or administer similar efforts at the regional or local level (e.g., State safety program, local road safety plans).
