Abstract:During the 2021 state fiscal year, TxDOT let to contract over $275M of Highway Safety Improvement Program projects and an additional $430M safety projects with Road to Zero funds. This past fiscal year was a historic year in terms of amount of funds dedicated strictly to stand alone safety construction projects. However, it deserves noting that these totals do not account for all the systemic and hot spot safety improvements that are incorporated into every construction or maintenance project. Over the past couple years TxDOT evaluated and worked to revise the HSIP process. The most significant revision was to remove the competitive statewide process to an approach that focuses funding allocations to areas of most need. The overall HSIP annual budget is split 50% reactive/targeted; 35% systemic and 10% off-system (local roadways). Then within each of those categories the funding allocations are split by district based on need. The need is determined by the fatal crash, fatalities, serious injury crash, and serious injuries data by district. The process was rolled out in the 2020 HSIP Program Call which took place during the state fiscal year 2021.
