2025 Safety Performance Targets
PUBLIC NOTICE:
2025 Safety Performance Targets
As per the Highway Safety Improvement Program final rule (23 CFR Part 490); States are required to set targets for five safety performance measures. The measures are the 5-year rolling averages.
MPOs establish safety targets by either:
Agreeing to plan and program projects that contribute toward the accomplishment of the State DOT target or
Committing to a quantifiable safety target for the metropolitan planning area.
The GBNRTC agrees to program projects that contribute toward the accomplishment of the following defined NYSDOT safety targets:
* Fatality Rate computed using VMT from FHWA Highway Statistics Series, Table VM-2
** Serious Injury Rate computed using VMT from FHWA Highway Statistics Series, Table VM-2
*** Based on combined total of Pedestrian Fatalities and Bicyclist and Other Cyclist Fatalities from FARS.
Public comments will be received until Close of Business (COB) on 1/18/25. If you have any additional questions or comments please email us at staff@gbnrtc.org, or contact us at the address and telephone number above.
