  • Abstract:
    In Kansas we continue to spend our HSIP dollars in a variety of independently managed sub-programs, including intersections, signing, pavement markings, lighting, highway-rail grade crossing, HRRR, guardrail, and general safety improvements. This is the ninth year HRRR is reported with the HSIP report. Collectively, these programs cover all 140,000 centerline miles of public roads in Kansas while applying a multitude of proven countermeasures designed to reduce fatal and serious injury crashes statewide. Worth highlighting is the significant increase in serious injuries since 2018. Between 2009 and 2018 serious injuries fell from 1,675 to 1,003. In 2019 Kansas adopted the new definition of "suspected serious injury" for severity A on the KABCO scale, to replace what was called "disabling injury". As expected, serious injuries (A) increased to 1,401 in 2019 and then to 1,586 in 2020 as, presumably, more law enforcement agencies adjusted to the new definition. This created a challenge in generating meaningful safety performance measures for serious injuries. Since submitting our 2020 HSIP Annual Report, we completed an HSIP Assessment, published our 2020-2024 Strategic Highway Safety Plan, developed an evaluation framework for each HSIP sub-program, and prepared our FFY 2022 HSIP Implementation Plan. It is our goal that each of these documents substantively inform and improve our overall HSIP process.
