The proposed implementation application bundles multiple low-cost, high-impact safety improvements into a coordinated citywide program to improve procurement efficiency, accelerate deployment, reduce administrative costs, and maximize transportation safety benefits. The proposed program builds upon crash analysis, hotspot evaluations, roadway safety audits, and regional coordination efforts with Travis County, CAMPO, TxDOT, CTRMA, CapMetro, and partner agencies.
The proposed implementation program includes the following project grouping:
- Citywide Intersection Visibility and Safety Enhancement Program
