Staunton-Augusta-Waynesboro Regional Transportation Safety Plan (2023)

The Staunton-Augusta-Waynesboro Regional Transportation Safety Plan is a data-driven effort, outlining the primary factors preventing people from arriving safely at their destinations as well as locations where safety improvements could make a difference.

The planning process included the following:

• Engagement of multidisciplinary stakeholders to review and discuss safety issues. Stakeholders
  include the members of the SAWMPO Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) who provide the
  connection to local elected officials, community representatives, local advocacy groups, schools,
  places of business, and citizens of the SAWMPO region.
• Identification of safety priority areas including bicycles and pedestrians, distracted driving,
  unbelted driving, impaired driving, young drivers, infrastructure (e.g., intersections and roadway
  departure), and speeding.
• Identification of crash locations with the potential for safety improvements.
• Identification of solutions to address behavioral and infrastructure needs.
