Executive Summary

Louisiana has set an aggressive target for reducing death and injury on the roadways –

Destination Zero Deaths. Great progress has been made since the development and 

implementation of the 2006 Strategic Highway Safety Plan (SHSP) and its subsequent update in 

2010. The 2010 SHSP targets four emphasis areas: impaired driving, occupant protection, 

infrastructure and operations, and crashes involving young drivers. Since 2007, traffic fatalities 

have dropped from 993 to as low as 677 in 2011 and serious injuries have been reduced from 

16,626 in 2005 to 13,433 in 2014.

Louisiana has accomplished a number of successes in each emphasis area including the 

following:

• Data and analysis improvements: State-specific safety performance functions (SPFs) 

for network screening and calibrated Highway Safety Manual (HSM) models for 

alternatives evaluations and project level analysis have been developed as well as a draft 

Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) Project Selection Guide outlining the 

criteria that will be used to select and prioritize all HSIP projects. Also for evaluation of 

the SHSP, web-based data dashboards have been created for safety stakeholders to assess 

progress (http://datareports.lsu.edu/shsps.aspx). 

• Systemic safety improvements: A statewide systemic cable median barrier study 

produced a prioritized list of candidate locations where median barrier would be 

considered for installation. High speed, controlled access facilities statewide with a 

median width less than 100’ were analyzed in the study. A systemic roadway departure 

project on 2-lane rural roadways with a shoulder width between 2’ and 6’ and lane width 

of 12’ is also being implemented at 282 curves (radius equal to or greater than 1640’) 

throughout the state. The countermeasures for the systemic curve project include 

enhanced signing and striping (i.e. 6” edge lines) and high friction surface treatment 

where pavement condition allows.

• Occupant Protection: LADOTD funded $2,681,790 for Overtime Enforcement to 

address Occupant Protection. Louisiana was averaging 81% safety belt use and the use 

of these funds helped in the continued effort to improve safety belt usage. Observed seat 

belt use reached 84.1 percent in 2014.Seat belt usage rate at night increased by 5.8 

percent. Louisiana Passenger Safety Task Force, Hispanic Outreach Occupant Protection, 

and Louisiana Highway Safety Commission (LHSC) provided overtime enforcement to 

53 local police departments and sheriff’s offices.

• Young Drivers: Sudden Impact Program (comprehensive injury prevention program 

targeting adolescents) reached 9,427 students.Think First Program coordinated and 

implemented 54 programs on underage drinking and impaired driving for youth (reached 

6,339 students).

• Impaired Driving: DWI overtime enforcement was implemented in Tier One Alcohol 

Problem ID Parishes (387 sobriety checkpoints, 812 saturation patrols) corresponding 

with national and state mobilizations. DWI courts were established in three judicial 

districts. No Refusal Programs were implemented in four state police troop areas and two 

partial troop areas.

SHSP Implementation & Update

Louisiana is using a two-tiered approach to implement the SHSP: Statewide Emphasis Area 

Teams create data-driven action plans and track implementation of SHSP strategies and action 

steps, and regional Safety Coalitions utilize data to identify regional safety needs and develop 

data-driven five-year regional safety plans which identify three to five emphasis areas consistent 

with the SHSP.

The SHSP Implementation Team oversees overall implementation of the Plan and is supported 

by an executive committee. The team consists of representatives from the Louisiana Department 

of Transportation and Development (LADOTD), Louisiana State Police (LSP), Louisiana 

Highway Safety Commission (LHSC), Local Technical Assistance Program (LTAP), Louisiana 

Planning Council (LPC), Louisiana Municipal Association (LMA), Federal Highway 

Administration (FHWA), Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), National 

Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), in addition to the emphasis area team leaders 

and regional safety coalition coordinators.

LADOTD and its safety partners recently launched an update to the 2010 SHSP. To kick off the 

update, the Implementation Team initiated a Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats 

(SWOT) analysis of the 2010 SHSP update and implementation. The two-fold analysis included 

a survey distributed to 280 safety partners and telephone interviews with SHSP emphasis area 

team leaders, regional coalition coordinators and champions, and agency partners represented on 

the Implementation Team.

Regional Highway Safety Coalitions

The Louisiana two-tiered approach to lowering fatalities and serious injuries is accomplished in 

part by developing and continually implementing the federally required SHSP. The graphic 

below shows the boundaries for the nine regional coalitions. Each region is charged with forming 

a multidisciplinary or 4E safety coalition, reviewing the regional and local crash data, and 

developing a continually evolving, data driven action plan that is linked to the SHSP.
2015 Louisiana Highway Safety Improvement Program

3

Five coalitions have adopted regional safety action plans (Acadiana, North Shore, South Central, 

New Orleans, and Capital Region) and Southwest, Central, Northeast Louisiana Regions have 

action plans under development. The newly established Northwest Coalition will begin their 

safety action plan development this year.

The benefits of this regional approach to safety planning include:

• The strategies and actions in the SHSP are being implemented at the regional level. 

Broader implementation ensures better opportunities to reduce fatalities and serious 

injuries.

• LADOTD is in a better position to understand and potentially fund regional safety 

priorities. 

• The regional teams have new opportunities to receive funding for the critical safety needs 

in a region.

• The regional teams have better access to and a better understanding of crash data. They 

also are better connected to safety stakeholders and partnerships.

LADOTD and its partners hosted a capacity building workshop for the regional coalition 

coordinators tasked with managing the day to day operations of each coalition. The December 

2014 workshop focused on coalition building, presentation skills, meeting management, data 

access, communications strategies, and facilitation skills. 

Local Road Safety

Funding for Local Road Safety Improvement Projects is available through the Louisiana Local 

Road Safety Program (LRSP). Eligible projects include those for roadways and transportation 

systems owned and operated by parish and/or municipal road agencies. Specific funds are 

available for selected projects and additional funding sources or resources may be available 

depending on the type of project. The Louisiana Center for Transportation Safety administers the 

Local Road Safety Program in cooperation with LADOTD. Proposed projects can be submitted 

anytime throughout the year, with the selection process conducted by the LRSP Project Selection 

Team on a quarterly basis.

Introduction

The Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) is a core Federal-aid program 

with the purpose of achieving a significant reduction in fatalities and serious 

injuries on all public roads. As per 23 U.S.C. 148(h) and 23 CFR 924.15, States are 

required to report annually on the progress being made to advance HSIP 

implementation and evaluation efforts. The format of this report is consistent 

with the HSIP MAP-21 Reporting Guidance dated February 13, 2013 and consists 

of four sections: program structure, progress in implementing HSIP projects, 

progress in achieving safety performance targets, and assessment of the 

effectiveness of the improvements.

Describe how local roads are addressed as part of Highway Safety Improvement Program.

The Local Road Safety Program (LRSP) is allocated approximately $3-5 million per year. Eligible projects 

include those for roadways and transportation systems owned and operated by parish and municipal 

road agencies. Specific funds are available for selected local safety data-driven projects and additional 

funding sources or resources may be available depending on the type of project. Funding for Local Road 

Safety Improvement Projects is available through the Louisiana Local Road Safety Program (LRSP).

The Louisiana Transportation Center for Safety (LCTS) administers the LRSP in cooperation with DOTD 

and Louisiana Technical Assistance Program (LTAP). LTAP coordinates activities and resources in 
2015 Louisiana Highway Safety Improvement Program

conjunction with the LADOTD to facilitate annual project submittals, review and scoring, and 

recommendation of qualifying project applications for the Local Road Safety Improvement Projects.

LADOTD has implemented a three-year program to collect roadway data on the local road system. This 

program will collect roadway characteristic data on all public roads. This will enhance DOTD, LCTS, and 

LTAP’s capability to work with the local agencies, share data, and collaborate on infrastructure 

improvements.

Briefly describe coordination with internal partners. 

LADOTD Highway Safety Improvement Projects are selected for implementation through a data driven 

competitive process. LADOTD utilizes a Stage 0 planning process for identifying potential highway safety 

improvement projects. Stage 0 determines the feasibility of a project along with the scope, budget, and 

safety benefit. The Stage 0 for proposed safety projects for inclusion in the HSIP is prepared by the 

LADOTD District Office, Road Design Section, Highway Safety Section, Consultant, MPO or the 

Transportation Planning Section. The Stage 0 report is reviewed for completeness and approved by the 

Highway Safety Section before being submitted to the Project selection Team for inclusion in the 

Department's Highway Program.

Projects that are identified through the HSIP have the overall goal of reducing the number and severity 

of crashes and decreasing the potential for crashes on all public roads.

The LADOTD performs HSIP components of planning, implementation, and evaluation to accomplish 

requirements of the program. These components involve the following: data-driven identification of 

crash locations, development and implementation of an annual program of projects and report 

annually to the FHWA on progress and effectiveness. FHWA is involved in all three components, both 

formally and through informal technical assistance.

Glossary

5 year rolling average means the average of five individual, consecutive annual points of data (e.g. 

annual fatality rate).

Emphasis area means a highway safety priority in a State’s SHSP, identified through a data-driven, 

collaborative process. 

Highway safety improvement project means strategies, activities and projects on a public road that are 

consistent with a State strategic highway safety plan and corrects or improves a hazardous road location 

or feature or addresses a highway safety problem. 

HMVMT means hundred million vehicle miles traveled.

Non-infrastructure projects are projects that do not result in construction. Examples of noninfrastructure projects include road safety audits, transportation safety planning activities, 

improvements in the collection and analysis of data, education and outreach, and enforcement 

activities.

Older driver special rule applies if traffic fatalities and serious injuries per capita for drivers and 

pedestrians over the age of 65 in a State increases during the most recent 2-year period for which data 

are available, as defined in the Older Driver and Pedestrian Special Rule Interim Guidance dated 

February 13, 2013. 

Performance measure means indicators that enable decision-makers and other stakeholders to monitor 

changes in system condition and performance against established visions, goals, and objectives.

Programmed funds mean those funds that have been programmed in the Statewide Transportation 

Improvement Program (STIP) to be expended on highway safety improvement projects.

Roadway Functional Classification means the process by which streets and highways are grouped into 

classes, or systems, according to the character of service they are intended to provide.

Strategic Highway Safety Plan (SHSP) means a comprehensive, multi-disciplinary plan, based on safety 

data developed by a State Department of Transportation in accordance with 23 U.S.C. 148. 

Systemic safety improvement means an improvement that is widely implemented based on high risk 

roadway features that are correlated with specific severe crash types. 

Transfer means, in accordance with provisions of 23 U.S.C. 126, a State may transfer from an 

apportionment under section 104(b) not to exceed 50 percent of the amount apportioned for the fiscal 

year to any other apportionment of the State under that section.
