Abstract:The Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) is responsible for managing the 25% of federal funds allocated for Puerto Rico under the ZP-30 Fiscal Management Information System program code for highway safety improvement projects. This program does not have any subprogram. The Strategic Highway Safety Plan (SHSP) is a key element of the HSIP in Puerto Rico, being responsible of coordinating with internal and external safety stakeholders from all sectors the highway safety initiatives, performance measures, and targets for Puerto Rico. Puerto Rico developed the first SHSP in 2014, for the 2014 to 2018 period, with the support of safety stakeholders from the Puerto Rico Highway and Transportation Authority (PRHTA), the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), and the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA). This 5-year comprehensive plan met the requirements of the federal regulations (23 U.S. Code §148). The Puerto Rico SHSP targets for 2018 were satisfactory met, as certified by FHWA. In 2019, the second SHSP was approved, for the 2019 to 2023 period, and is currently under implementation by the PRHTA, the Puerto Rico Traffic Safety Commission (PRTSC), and more than 80 safety stakeholders. It is through the SHSP that the main highway safety problems, and opportunities to achieve the purpose of the HSIP, have been identified and analyzed, as well as other transportation plans.
