Proven Safety Countermeasures Funding Scenario Tool

The Proven Safety Countermeasures (PSCs) Funding Scenario Tool is a spreadsheet that agencies can use to develop investment strategies for implementation of the FHWA PSCs. The Tool includes options for two economic metrics to optimize high-level planning decisions – benefit-cost ratio (BCR) and countermeasure score (CM Score). Using these metrics can enhance the confidence that a user is allocating their funds in a way that maximizes reductions in fatalities and serious injuries.
