Road Safety Audit. The RFP has requested that existing safety deficiencies in the study area be identified. Although a full crash analysis is proposed, this is not sufficient to unearth all potential safety issues. Our recommended plan is to conduct a Road Safety Audit (RSA). This is defined as “the formal safety performance examination of an existing or future road or intersection by an independent, multidisciplinary team. It qualitatively estimates and reports on potential road safety issues and identifies opportunities for improvements in safety for all road users.” Road safety audits differ from conventional traffic safety studies in two key ways: road safety audits are pro-active investigations, rather than reactive investigations of sites with histories of complaints or poor safety performance. The investigation team is independent from the staff that owns / maintains the road. A key feature of a road safety audit is the use of a team of professionals with varied expertise. We propose a team that includes a traffic safety engineer, traffic operation engineer, design engineer, maintenance engineer, and law enforcement. Since historical crash data is available, the audit team will make use of them. However, one of the strengths of the audit process is it can find safety concerns before they contribute to crashes. Regarding the potential safety performance of future roadway improvements, we will be utilizing methods from the Highway Safety Manual (HSM). This is a publication of the American Association of State Highway Transportation Officials. It contains concepts, guidelines, and computational procedures for predicting the safety performance of various highway facilities. The planned process for the RSA would begin with preparation of information packets for the RSA team to use during their reviews. These packets may include maps, crash summaries, traffic data, etc. The next step would be to schedule the RSA kickoff meeting, which would include a presentation by the Project Manager and RSA Facilitator, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, explaining the RSA process and providing an opportunity for stakeholders to explain to the team the problems in the area. After this kickoff meeting, the team begins their audit, reviewing the information available and field reviewing the study area during peak periods, off-peak periods and nighttime. The team will identify the safety concerns and prioritize the issues. A findings presentation will be prepared and presented to the stakeholders. For this l...
