Abstract:

On behalf of the Rhode Island Department of Transportation (RIDOT) and the Office on Safety we are pleased to present the Highway Safety Improvement Program Annual Report for FY21. In the past year, RIDOT has continued to make strides in the HSIP, including development of several systemic programs; streamlined effort to install countermeasures, and expanded local road program. RIDOT has shifted most of our funding to the systemic program to help stretch our limited safety dollars. RIDOT develop a systemic, risk based GIS-based tool for both the STEP and Horizontal Curve programs. These 2 programs will help address over half of the fatal and serious injury crashes. RIDOT also began developing a Master Price Agreement (MPA) that can streamline the installation of improvements within 3-6 months from diagnosis as well as help save on overhead costs often seen in larger construction projects. RIDOT revised their State TIP to include the MPA starting in FY22. RIDOT also began to develop a Local Road program to help locals address safety issues. RIDOT participated in a FHWA Local Road Safety Plan workshop and plans to expand the program in FY22.
