• Abstract:
  Tribal communities recognize the need to improve roadway safety. A five-step methodology has been developed by the Wyoming Technology Transfer Center to improve roadway safety on reservations. This methodology was initially implemented on the Wind River Indian Reservation, which led to the Wyoming Department of Transportation’s funding of three system-wide, low-cost safety improvement projects. Due to the success of the program on the Wind River Indian Reservation, tribes across the country have become interested in implementing the program. WYT2/LTAP and the Northern Plains Tribal Technical Assistance Program (NPTTAP) are helping tribes implement this program on their reservations in the Great Plains region, and have developed criteria to identify tribes for participation. This study aimed to improve roadway safety of the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation.
