  • Abstract:
    A Massachusetts HSIP Task Force was established in 2009 to develop guidelines for HSIP-eligible projects and programs. The Task Force consisted of FHWA, MassDOT Highway, MassDOT Planning and MARPA (Massachusetts Association of Regional Planning Agencies)/MPOs. Criteria for HSIP projects were defined. But the role of the Task Force was not to select individual projects and programs. The Task Force had met annually or as needed. In 2019, the Task Force was updated to include additional member in an effort to help move HSIP projects to advertise in a timely manner. MassDOT District Project Development Engineers were added and additional MPO members. The guidelines for HSIP projects were updated (in draft) to emphasize systemic projects and projects combined with other project types to broaden the impacts of the HSIP program. This should help to reinvigorate the HSIP Task Force so that the project selection for HSIP can be more fluid, nimble, and responsive to the needs of SHSP strategies and ensure project readiness and ability of projects to be advertised in a timely manner. This became easier with the development of the IMPACT Safety Analysis Module which enables users to visualize, query and export information on the top crash-based and top risk-based locations (https://apps.impact.dot.state.ma.us/sat/landing). This was initial developed in spring of 2021 and is being finalized. This will necessitate an update to the HSIP guidance (due in fall 2021).
