The Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) is updating the Oregon Transportation Safety Action Plan (TSAP). The TSAP unifies transportation safety planning in Oregon. It provides long-term goals, policies, and strategies, as well as near-term actions to eliminate transportation system deaths and life-changing injuries. The TSAP project team has been busy over the last few months making progress on the TSAP update.
An online survey was conducted in October-November 2020 and more than 430 people participated in providing feedback on transportation safety needs. A survey summary is available with key themes that will inform the project update.
The project team has also completed an analysis of crash trends that documents updated safety data; recent and historic trends related to crash types, crash severity, and possible contributing factors; and an analysis of the attainment of safety performance targets.
Check out the latest fact sheet (also available in Spanish) that summarizes what we have learned from stakeholder input and the analysis of crash trends.
