  1. Safety Performance Management Webinar This course is pre-requisite training for attending your State Safety Target Setting Coordination & Training Workshop

  2. Learning Outcomes • Explain Transportation Performance Management • Explain the Safety Performance Management Measures Final Rule (Safety PM) (23 CFR 490) • Describe NHTSA’s Provisions for Performance Measures and Targets in the Highway Safety Plan (HSP) (23 CRF 1300) • Explain the Importance of Coordination among internal and External Partners

  3. Why was TPM Introduced? • TPM is a key component of MAP-21 and continued in the FAST Act in the establishment of a performance and outcome based Federal –aid highway program • TPM represents the opportunity to: • Prioritize needs • Align resources for optimizing system performance in a collaborative manner

  4. What is Transportation Performance Management (TPM)? Defined as a strategic approach that uses system information to make investment and policy decisions to achieve national performance goals

  5. TPM Elements

  6. 1. National Goals • Safety • Infrastructure condition • Congestion reduction • System reliability • Freight movement and economic vitality • Environmental sustainability • Reduced project delivery delays

  7. 2. Measures Safety Performance Management Measures for FHWA’s Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) • 5 Performance Measures • Number of Fatalities • Rate of Fatalities per 100 million VMT • Number of Serious Injuries • Rate of Serious Injuries per 100 million VMT • Number of Non-motorized Fatalities and Non-motorized Serious Injuries • 5-Year Rolling Averages

  8. 2. MeasuresNHTSA’s 12 Outcome Measures in the Highway Safety Plan (HSP)

  9. Number of Fatalities • Calculated by adding the number of fatalities for the most recent five consecutive calendar years in which data is available and dividing by five • Round to the tenths decimal Place Example: X.X N

  10. Rate of Fatalities per 100M VMT • Calculated by first calculating the number of fatalities per 100 million VMT for each of the most recent five consecutive years in which data is available, adding the results and dividing by five • Round to the thousandths decimal place Example: X.XXX

  11. Number of Serious Injuries • Total number of persons suffering at least one serious injury in a motor vehicle crash • Calculated by adding the number of serious injuries for the most recent five consecutive years in which data is available and dividing by five • Round to the tenths decimal place X.X

  12. Rate of Serious Injuries • Serious injuries per 100 million VMT • Calculated by first calculating the number of serious injuries per 100 million VMT for each of the most recent five consecutive years in which data is available, adding the results and dividing by five • Round to the thousandths decimal place X.XXX

  13. Number of Non-Motorized Fatalities & Non-Motorized Serious Injuries • Non-motorized fatalities (five most recent years) + Non-motorized serious injuries (five most recent years), divided by five • Round to the tenths decimal place X.X

  14. 3. Targets • States establish annual targets in the HSIP report • Beginning in August 2017 HSIP report for calendar year 2018 • Target for each measure (5-year rolling average) • based on calendar year • Applicable to all public roads regardless of functional classification or ownership • Targets must be identical to NHTSA HSP targets for common measures: • Number of fatalities; Rate of fatalities; Number of serious injuries

  15. Establishment of Performance Targets • States report serious injury data in HSIP report • Urbanized/Non-urbanized Area Targets • States can establish any number of urbanized area targets and a single non-urbanized area target • Not included in assessment of target achievement • Must evaluate and report progress for each target • Must report the urbanized area boundaries

  16. MPO Targets • MPOs establish targets 180 days after State • Target for each measure required • Two options to establish targets • MPOs can agree to support the State DOT target; OR • MPOs can establish a numerical target specific to the MPO planning area • Targets are applicable to all public roads in the MPO • Report the VMT estimate used for rate targets and the methodology used to develop the estimate • MPO targets are reported to State DOT and must be available to FHWA, if requested

  17. NHTSA Targets • Targets are reported annually in the HSP • Targets must be data-driven • Data driven means informed by a systematic review and analysis of quality data sources when making decisions related to planning, target establishment, resource allocation and implementation

  18. Identical Targets • Performance measures common to the State’s HSP and the State’s HSIP must be defined identically, as coordinated through the State Strategic Highway Safety Plan Number of Fatalities Fatality Rate Number of Serious Injuries

  19. Coordination • State DOTs and SHSOs need to coordinate on setting the identical targets • State DOTs and MPOs are required to coordinate during the HSIP target setting process • Include other State safety stakeholders (4 E’s)

  20. Coordination Cycle for 2018 Targets • Target Setting Coordination • By Spring, begin engaging DOT, SHSO, and MPO stakeholders • Set targets for CY 2018 Target Approval By June, secure CY 2018 target approval from DOT/SHSO leadership 2017 2018 2019 - 2020 August 31 State DOT submits HSIP Annual Report to FHWA, including safety targets By February 27 MPOs establish safety targets July 1 SHSO submits HSP to NHTSA including 3 identical safety targets December 2019 Data available to evaluate targets March 2020 States notified whether they met or made significant progress toward CY 2018 targets

  21. Forums for Coordination • Strategic Highway Safety Plan Collaboration Structures • Technical Committee • Leadership Committee • Performance-Based Planning and Programming (PBPP) Collaboration Structures • Highway Safety Plan Development Structures • Traffic Safety Summits

  22. 4. Plans Strategic Highway Safety Plan (SHSP) Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) Highway Safety Plan (HSP) • Updated every five years • Infrastructure and behavioral countermeasures • SHSP process approved by FHWA • Requirement of HSIP • Plan submitted annually • Behavioral programs • NHTSA approved • Report submitted annually • Infrastructure improvements • FHWA approved

  23. 5. Reports • State must report to FHWA via annual HSIP Report and to NHTSA via the annual Highway Safety Plan (HSP) • MPOs • Report to State DOT • Include System Performance Report in Metropolitan Transportation Plan State DOT FHWA MPO

  24. Reporting Targets for HSIP • Overview of general highway safety trends • Document safety performance targets established • Reasons for differences in actual outcomes and targets • Document information related to special rules

  25. Reporting MPO Targets • Documented in Report to State DOT • System Performance Report in Metropolitan Transportation Plan

  26. State DOTs and MPOs Update on or Before May 27, 2018 • Long Range Statewide Transportation Plans (LRSTPs) and Metropolitan Transportation Plans (MTPs) must include safety performance measures and targets • Statewide Transportation Improvement Programs (STIPs) and Transportation Improvement Programs (TIPs) must include a description of how the STIP & TIP contributes to achieving the targets in the LRSTP & MTP

  27. HSP Reporting Requirements • Targets are reported annually in the HSP • The HSP includes a description of all funds to be used to improve behavioral safety • States are required to have an approved HSP, containing 15 core outcome measures, to receive Section 402 State and Community Highway Safety Grants.

  28. 6. Accountability and Transparency • Require reporting on serious injuries and fatalities through a public reporting system • Better understanding of Federal transportation investment needs • Improve visibility and transparency of State fatal and serious injury data

  29. FHWA Target Achievement Evaluation A State DOT is determined to have met or made significant progress toward meeting its targets when at least four of the five established performance targets • are met -- or -- • the outcome for a performance measure is less than the five-year rolling average data for the performance measure for the year prior to the establishment of the State’s target

  30. Target Achievement Evaluation • Optional targets will not be evaluated • Requirements if State did not meet or make significant progress toward meeting targets • Use obligation authority equal to the HSIP apportionment for the prior year only for highway safety improvement projects, and • Submit a HSIP Implementation Plan • States notified of target achievement by the end of March following the year data becomes available

  31. Data Sources

  32. Target Assessment Example

  33. MPO Target Achievement Evaluation • Transportation Management Area (TMA) Planning Certification • Planning findings

  34. HSP Assessment/Accountability • States must provide a program-area-level report on their progress in meeting performance targets in the HSP • Additionally, SHSOs submit an annual report to NHTSA 90-days after the end of the fiscal year • The annual report provides an assessment of the State’s progress in achieving performance targets identified in the prior year HSP and a description of how the projects funded under the prior year HSP contributed to meeting the State’s highway safety performance targets

  35. Safety PM Resources FHWA’s Safety PM website: http://safety.fhwa.dot.gov/hsip/spm/ • Target Setting • Methodology Reports, Peer Exchange, Noteworthy Practices • Target Setting Coordination Workshops & Report • Fact Sheets • Safety Performance Measures • Significant Progress • MPO • Timeline • FAQs • Guidance • MPO VMT Technical Guidance • Serious Injury Conversion Tables
