Regional Roadway Safety Program

The Regional Roadway Safety Program (RRSP) provides short-term consultant services to member jurisdictions or agencies to assist with planning or preliminary engineering projects that address roadway safety issues. Examples include studies, planning, or design projects that will improve roadway safety and lead to a reduction in fatal and serious injury crashes on the jurisdiction’s roadways. The program offers consultant assistance up to $80,000 for planning projects and up to $100,000 for design projects. For FY 2025, the program funded six projects for a total of $480,000.
