•Environmental component: energy consumption; GHG emissions; noise; air quality; stormwater treatment.
•Social component: safety (fatalities, injuries, property damage); smoothness; vehicle operating costs; GHG emissions; access, mobility; aesthetics.
•Economic: construction, maintenance, and rehabilitation costs; vehicle operating costs; crash costs.

Speeding - traveling too fast for conditions or exceeding the posted speed limits - is a contributing factor in 26 percent of all fatalities. In 2020, there were 38,824 fatalities on our Nation's roadways, of which 11,258 were speeding-related - increased by 17 percent from the previous year. Speeding is a safety concern on all roads and for all road users. Although much of the public concern about speeding has been focused on high-speed Interstates, only 14 percent (1,344) occurred on interstate highways, rural and urban combined, while 86 percent of speeding-related fatalities occurred on non-interstate roadways. Speeding is a complex issue involving engineering, driving behavior, education, and enforcement. FHWA is the lead agency accountable for the engineering actions.

January 17, 2024
Funded by the Federal Lands Highway Division (FLH) of the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), the purpose of this research project is to document and evaluate the integration of project planning and data sharing into transportation planning practices and processes within public land settings. The report highlights the importance of collaboration between transportation system owners and the need to establish clear roles, responsibilities, and feedback mechanisms to ensure effective implementation of these partnerships.
While the benefits of data sharing are clear and numerous, there are several barriers to coordination and little information or guidance on how to partner across public lands and transportation agencies. The deliverables from this research have begun to address the lack of guidance and provide information on how to overcome the barriers. The case studies in Appendix 1 provide examples of successful planning and data sharing partnerships for others to learn from. The case studies and Technical Research Panel helped the project team identify information gaps that were developed into functional tools, listed in the table below. The final toolkit contains these 11 tools that cover data governance, data types, and implementation work plans to support long-lasting partnerships.

Results of a Systemic (Risk-based) Study of Pedestrian Safety in Tribal Areas
Date: Tuesday, November 12, 2024
Time: 11:30 am to 1:00 pm Mountain/1:30 pm to 3:00 pm Eastern
Motor vehicle crashes involving pedestrians are rare events that often result in high-severity consequences. Because these crashes occur infrequently, it can be difficult to plan infrastructure improvements and justify their funding. This webinar will share the results of a research project sponsored by FHWA. The research establishes risk-based safety planning tools to evaluate infrastructure in Tribal areas for pedestrian safety.
