usRAP United States Road Assessment Program Risk Mapping + Star Ratings January 29, 2009

Imagine a day when… State and local authorities allocate resources based on real world risks Safety conscious consumers who purchase 5-star cars can identify and choose to drive on 5-star roads A motorist will get a map or program their in-vehicle navigation system that shows the safest route from A to B

usRAP Advisory Board AASHTO AHU and RSF ATSSA Auto Clubs FHWA ITE NACE State and local highway agencies

EuroRAP developed by European motoring clubs to evaluate the safety of roads using two methods: a synthesis of available crash statistics summarized by crash location a road safety review based on the design features of specific roadway sections. AusRAP Australia. The results of both EuroRAP and AusRAP have been presented in the form of risk raps and star rating maps of the roadway system.

usRAP Pilots Initiated in 2004 Phase I – published in 2006; Iowa and Michigan Phase II – Florida and New Jersey Phase III – Utah, Illinois, New Mexico, Kentucky, plus RPS validation Pilot budget – about $1.4 million spent or budgeted – majority from AAA

usRAP Objectives Cut death and serious injury rates through systematic risk assessment Ensure that strategic decisions are based on risk assessment Forge partnerships among those responsible for a safe road system

usRAP Objectives Better information and guidance for motorists Improve crash data record systems Increase investment in road safety

Applications for Risk Maps Effective safety management by highway agencies Better public understanding of highway safety needs Influence motorist route choice Influence motorist behavior on higher risk roads

What’s in it for road agencies? Support statewide highway safety plans Implement and supplement ongoing road safety programs New analysis tools New perspectives on road safety problems Assist w/performance metrics
