A Safe System Guide for Transportation: Successful Examples from Communities in the U.S.
This report is a collaborative effort between the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety, Johns Hopkins University, and the Institute of Transportation Engineers. This work’s objective is to produce a useful resource for communities that plan to deploy the Safe System approach in their transportation designs and services.
This report presents information to equip stakeholders to embark on their Safe System initiatives with knowledge of best practices and lessons learned from several U.S. communities. The recommendations and the six case studies presented in this report will help practitioners and safety advocates involved in adopting, implementing, and sustaining use of the Safe System approach understand how to get started with building the partnerships that will be necessary for a comprehensive Safe System, and how to overcome potential obstacles.
