BACKGROUND
![Page 4: NCHRP Synthesis 458: Roadway Safety Data Interoperability Between Local and State Agencies Presented to ATSIP TRF 2014 Presented by Nancy Lefler Vanasse.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e4a5503460f94b3e046/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Background
• Approx. 40 percent of fatal crashes occur on local roads• Safety on local roads can be challenging • Mileage (3M miles) and diversity of authority
![Page 5: NCHRP Synthesis 458: Roadway Safety Data Interoperability Between Local and State Agencies Presented to ATSIP TRF 2014 Presented by Nancy Lefler Vanasse.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e4a5503460f94b3e046/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
MAP-21
• Recognized importance of data in safety decision-making • Legislation states that “a state shall have in place a
safety data system with the ability to perform safety problem identification and countermeasure analysis” (MAP 21 § 1112). ‐
• MAP-21 further clarifies that this system should include all public roads.
![Page 6: NCHRP Synthesis 458: Roadway Safety Data Interoperability Between Local and State Agencies Presented to ATSIP TRF 2014 Presented by Nancy Lefler Vanasse.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e4a5503460f94b3e046/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Challenges
• Lack of data or the data management systems needed to meet these requirements. • Collecting, storing, and maintaining data for non-state
maintained roads

Data Collection - Documented Practices
• Iowa – Traffic and Criminal Software (TraCS) application software used for electronic crash data capture. • Ohio - Location Based Response System (LBRS), establishes
partnerships between state and local government agencies for sharing street centerline data with address ranges• Wisconsin - developed the web-based GIS products - WISLR
to collect, store, and share data on local roads. • Tennessee – Collected local road inventory and GPS center
lines on the local roads to complete the LRS spatial network. • Minnesota - conducted a study on traffic counting practices
on local roads.

Data Interoperability – Documented Practices
• Maryland - Enterprise GIS web services allowed them to consolidate data into a single dataset by sharing geometry and addresses across the system• Michigan - RoadSoft asset management system for
collecting, storing, and analyzing data associated with transportation infrastructure on state and local roads• Wyoming - Coordinates with the MPOs to collect data
for the statewide basemap, which includes local roads.

Safety Decision Making - Documented Practices
• Alabama - Alabama requires counties to participate in roadway safety training to be eligible for Federal funds• Minnesota – Developed County-level Road Safety Plans for
each of the 87 counties in the state to encourage low-cost countermeasures and creates funding targets for local agencies to use HSIP funding.• Illinois - Provides HSIP funds to local agencies to collect
and geo-locate crash data and conducts safety workshops that highlight the application process for safety funds

Data Management - Documented Practices
• Charlotte, NC - Has a GIS Enterprise Team that coordinates GIS efforts among the various departments within the City. • New York State - Implemented the New York State
GIS Cooperative Data Sharing Agreement, which promotes data sharing and helps reduce GIS data maintenance of the costs.

CONCLUSIONS
![Page 30: NCHRP Synthesis 458: Roadway Safety Data Interoperability Between Local and State Agencies Presented to ATSIP TRF 2014 Presented by Nancy Lefler Vanasse.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e4a5503460f94b3e046/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Conclusions
• Two general approaches to obtaining local road datao State develops mechanism for locals to provide data
o Benefits: Minimizes cost for the state o Challenges: Getting cooperation from locals and
confidence in quality of the data o State collects data
o Benefits: Eliminates dependence on local agencies, improved confidence in data quality
o Challenges: Costly, long-term maintenance of the data
![Page 31: NCHRP Synthesis 458: Roadway Safety Data Interoperability Between Local and State Agencies Presented to ATSIP TRF 2014 Presented by Nancy Lefler Vanasse.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e4a5503460f94b3e046/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Conclusions continued
• Lack of coordination and potential duplication of efforts between the local and state agencies. o Survey questions where conflicting response from state and
local agencies in the same state o Survey questions where state and local agency in same state
conducted the same activity for local roads – i.e. data collection or safety analysis
![Page 32: NCHRP Synthesis 458: Roadway Safety Data Interoperability Between Local and State Agencies Presented to ATSIP TRF 2014 Presented by Nancy Lefler Vanasse.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e4a5503460f94b3e046/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Conclusions continued
• Cost of developing statewide safety data systems could be significant • Potential cost savings in state and local agency
coordination/partnerships• Several states have been able do so – provide
examples for other states
![Page 33: NCHRP Synthesis 458: Roadway Safety Data Interoperability Between Local and State Agencies Presented to ATSIP TRF 2014 Presented by Nancy Lefler Vanasse.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e4a5503460f94b3e046/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Conclusions continued
• Need for support of data improvement efforts from both the local agencies and the state DOT leadership: o Executives need to understand the value of
investing in safety data o Local agencies need to feel there will be some
benefit to them for participating.
