• Abstract:
  At the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT), agency leadership and staff recognize that close coordination and joint activities between the highway safety program and the transportation systems management and operations (TSMO) program can improve safety and mobility outcomes. ODOT has long jointly considered safety and congestion and has found that approximately 40 percent of the locations with the greatest safety issues also have significant congestion. This case study highlights safety and operations coordination at ODOT. Additionally, this case study highlights the Northeast Ohio Areawide Coordinating Agency (NOACA), the metropolitan planning organization (MPO) for the Greater Cleveland, OH, area. NOACA integrates safety and operations through a joint safety and operations council, an intelligent transportation systems (ITS) strategic plan, and a livable communities initiative.
