Executive Summary

The Washington state HSIP program funds both local safety (70%) and state highway safety (30%) 

programs. The program continues to be successful (54.36 B/C for projects closed in 2012). Projects going 

forward using HSIP funds target the top two (both priority one) infrastructure focus areas identified in 

the SHSP (Run-Off-the-Road and Intersections).

The HSIP program has had a major benefit and effect on road safety in Washington state. While state 

highways have allocated state funds to support safety efforts, in addition to HSIP funds, the majority of 

local road safety efforts are funded by the HSIP program. With 70% of fatal and serious injury crashes in 

the priority one focus areas, this is a desperately needed program for the state to have any possibility to 

achieving its Target Zero vision by 2030.

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.

Washington uses a data-driven process to determine HSIP funding levels for state vs local roads. The 

current SHSP, "Washington Strategic Highway Safety Plan: Target Zero," (www.targetzero.com) has 

specified priority levels for types/causes/categories of fatal & serious injury crashes based on crash type, 

driver behaviors, or user type. The top 2 infrastructure related priorities are Run-Off-the-Road crashes 

(priority 1) and Intersection crashes (priority 1).

To determine the HSIP funding allocation between state and local roadways, WSDOT evaluates the 

number of fatal & serious injury run-off-road and intersection-related crashes statewide for a 

consecutive 5-year period. WSDOT calculates the ratio of crashes on local agency responsibility roads to 

those on state highways then allocates HSIP funding between state and local roadways based on that 

percentage. Currently, local agencies receive 70% of HSIP funds and the state receives 30%.

Briefly describe coordination with internal partners. 

Oversight for the 70% of the HSIP funds that are directed to local agencies is assigned to the Local

Programs division for management (to identify local agency priorities, distribution of funds to

counties & cities, individual projectselection, federal oversight, project delivery, etc.).

Responsibility for the 30% of the HSIP funds that are directed to the state is managed by the

WSDOT Multimodal Safety Executive Committee (MSEC). WSDOT does not have a specific highway

safety office within the DOT, but is a matrixed team. Implementation of highway safety is done

collaboratively across all of the department's divisions and coordinated between all modes. The

highway safety program by MSEC provides department-wide and multimodal coordination and

input on highway and modal safety issues. Oversight is the responsibility for Quality Assurance and 

Transportation System Safety Office to ensure the MSEC policy and procedures are carried out throughout 

each of the respective divisions. Roles and responsibilities of each office are defined by a matrix with 

agreement by the Directors. MSEC is comprised of program directorsfrom all of the major highways

divisions (Design, Planning, Program Management, Traffic Operations, Local Programs, Quality

Assurance & Transportation System Safety, and Strategic Analysis & Reporting) and modes (Ferries,

Rail, Aviation, Bicycle, Pedestrian and Transit.) The Highway Safety Issue Group provides technical 

support to the MSEC and is comprised of each Headquarter Division and Regional participants from 

each of WSDOT six regions.

Describe any other aspects of Highway Safety Improvement Program Administration on which you 

would like to elaborate.

WSDOT has developed an Safety Improvement Program implementation plan to clearly tie the SHSP 

emphasis area to WSDOT safety program. The plan identifies safety-sub categories to each SHSP 

emphasis area, and also identifies performance measures for each sub-category.

The state HSIP program focuses primarily on Collision Analysis Locations (CALs), which are generally 

focused on low-cost spot modifications at specific crash locations and Intersection Analysis Locations 

(IALs) related to Intersection safety.

The local HSIP program focuses on a County Safety Program - primarily Roadway Departure with 

some Intersection focus, and a City Safety Program - primarily an Intersection focus. It also funds the

All state programs make use of the Highway Safety Manual and the predictive method, 

and AASHTOWare SafetyAnalyst as directed by MSEC for identification of locations to consider for 

safety projects. WSDOT uses a quantitative targeted approach based on an assessment of the root cause 

of crashes. MSEC approves criteria used for determining potential projects and a panel of engineers and 

managers review and approve proposed projects from an engineering and cost-benefit perspective.

The City Safety Program includes elements of both high-cost spot improvements and low-cost 

systemic safety improvements.

The County Safety Program is focused on low-cost systemic safety improvements. Counties are 

required to submit a local road safety plan to be eligible to apply for funds. Allocation of funds is based 

on available funding with counties being required to meet certain criteria for approval for project award.

What proportion of highway safety improvement program funds address systemic improvements? 

50%

Highway safety improvement program funds are used to address which of the following systemic 

improvements?

Cable Median Barriers

Rumble Strips

Install/Improve Signing

Install/Improve Pavement Marking and/or 

Delineation

Upgrade Guard Rails

Clear Zone Improvements

50% is an estimate. The majority of county projects have been systemic. A dedicated portion of 

city projects are systemic, and some of the "high-cost" projects also implement systemic improvements. 

And a portion of state funds have also been used for systemic safety.

What process is used to identify potential countermeasures? 

Engineering Study

Road Safety Assessment

Other-Use of HSM, Statistical analysis

Describe any other aspects of the Highway Safety Improvement Program methodology on which you 

would like to elaborate. 

WSDOT is using a performance based practical design and sustainable safety approach. WSDOT uses a 

5th E approach that considers the use of evaluation, analysis and diagnosis as part of determining the 

approach to address targeted crash types and contributing factors, and in the selection of appropriate 

countermeasures.

HSIP, Other Federal Funds, and State and Local funds represent Calendar Year 2015. Programmed 

and obligated funds are both based on projects in the 2015 STIP. Note that most projects include 

some safety elements and countermeasures, in larger or smaller shares of other projects using federal 

funds. These projects are not captured here, in part because it would be very difficult to break out the 

safety funding versus non-safety funding within those projects. It should be noted that the local funds

included in the table are what was "committed" to the projects as part of a match, but are not 

officially "obligated" as they are not federal funds.

Local Agency Projects: Programmed values are from the 2015 STIP. Obligated values are from 

SPORT (internal program) for projects in the 2015 STIP.

State Projects: Programmed values are from the 2015 STIP. Obligated values are from I2 

Safety expenditures (internal program) in 2015 for projects in the 2015 STIP.

Behavioral Projects: Behavioral funds are administered by the Washington Traffic Safety 

Commission (WTSC). These figures represent federal fiscal year 2016, including carry forward funds for 

some categories. Programmed reflects funds that have been transferred from NHTSA to the WTSC. 

Obligated funds are not yet available (for funds that have been allocated to specific projects aside from 

Section 402 funds), so programmed funding levels are shown.

Note that the local funding shown in answer to this question does not include any of the 

behavioral funds/programs shown in Question 17. Only the split for infrastructure-related projects is 

shown. Also note that for HSIP funds, the funding is split 70% programmed/obligated for local safety 

projects, 30% programmed/obligated for state safety projects.

Discuss impediments to obligating Highway Safety Improvement Program funds and plans to 

overcome this in the future.

WSDOT has not met with significant impediments to obligation of funds.

Describe any other aspects of the general Highway Safety Improvement Program implementation 

progress on which you would like to elaborate.

WSDOT believes that having the ability to use HSIP funds for non-infrastructure improvements is 

important to reestablish. It would also be helpful to continue to emphasize that expenditure for safety 

software and data is appropriate. Given the changes under MAP-21 and FAST additional wording would 

be beneficial in 23 USC 409 and 23 USC 148 that highlights that safety shared with Safety 

Partners (MPOs, Health, State Police, SHSO) is protected for the agency sharing and receiving the data 

when used for HSIP purposes (e.g., SHSP, Target Setting, Safety Planning, Public Awareness)

Ownership:

City category includes towns and any other ownership category that is unknown.

Functional Classification:

Prior to 2010 the following two categories were Rural Principal Arterial: Rural Other Freeways / Expressways & Rural Other Principal Arterial

Prior to 2010 the following two categories were Urban Collector: Major Collector, Minor Collector

For fatalities the Urban Minor Collector category did not exist prior to 2015. 

For fatalities the Rural Other Freeways/Expressways category did not exist prior to 2015. 

For 2013 through 2015 the serious injury rate for Urban Minor Collectors are very high - this is an artifact of the small subset of routes identified 

as such and very low associated MVMT.

FHWA shared the followinginformation on population (# people 65+ per 1000 state population) 

on the Section 148 Older Drivers at http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/map21/guidance/guideolder.cfm

For 2006, 2007 and 2015 no population data were available and the following assumptions were 

made:

* For 2007 we assumed the same growth rate from 2008 to 2009: 1.02 - resulting in 765 population

* for 2006 we assumed the same value as for 2007 - 765 population

Assessment of the Effectiveness of the Improvements (Program 

Evaluation)
2016 Washington Highway Safety Improvement Program

58

What indicators of success can you use to demonstrate effectiveness and success in the Highway 

Safety Improvement Program?

Benefit/cost

If 'benefit/cost', indicate the overall Highway Safety Improvement Program benefit/cost ratio.

54.36

The indicated B/C ratio of 54.36 is based on original project selection crashes (if that data is available) 

compared to 3 years after the project has been completed. This ratio is also focused solely on projectspecific location improvements (does not include countywide safety improvements based on risk). 

Those countywide projects were also evaluated for before and after crashes at the county level. All of 

those performed well (crashes decreased in each county), but due to the low cost of many of the 

projects and the significant gains the counties made in safety, the resulting B/C ratios seemed 

unrealistically high to include in the ratio shown.

What significant programmatic changes have occurred since the last reporting period? 

None

Briefly describe significant program changes that have occurred since the last reporting period.

We do not have summaries for the emphasis areas available for 2007 but added some information from previous reports where we could - all 

but wildlife, vehicle-train and school-bus involved values are reported.

We noticed that a zero value (e.g. 2015 for vehicle-train) in the input file showed an empty cell in the online reporting tool. There didn't appear 

to be a way to manually fix that.

SKIP WSDOT does not track individual results for all risk-based (systemic) programs, as a typical before and after comparison 

would not be appropriate. In addition, these programs significantly overlap, which does not allow them to be evaluated 

independently.

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
