  • Abstract:
    The Montana Department of Transportation continues to successfully implement Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) Funds throughout the State. This past year, funds have been utilized on state, county, city and local roadways. This includes large systemic applications (curve signing, sinusodial centerline rumble strips, median cable barrier) as well as for spot locations. The spot safety improvements have ranged from delineation, striping and signs to turn lanes, signals and roundabouts. MDT's Safety Information Management System (SIMS) and Montana Specific Safety Performance Functions continues to provide Montana with effective tools to identify, analyze and implement HSIP projects. MDT is currently in the process of upgrading their SIMS software to improve identification of potential sites and tracking of projects. Montana did see an increase in severe injury crashes in 2020. The COVID pandemic changed the way drivers utilized Montana's highways resulting in more fatal and serious injury crashes. This included higher speeds and riskier driving behaviors. This corresponds with results being seen in other western states for 2020.
