SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Highway Safety Improvement
Program.
Background: The Fixing America’s
Surface Transportation (FAST) Act
(Pub. L. 114–94) continues the Highway
Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) as
a core federal-aid program with the
purpose to achieve a significant
reduction in traffic fatalities and serious
injuries on all public roads, including
non-State-owned public roads and roads
on tribal lands. The HSIP requires a

data-driven, strategic approach to
improving highway safety on all public
roads that focuses on performance.
The existing provisions of Title 23
U.S.C. 130, Railway-Highway Crossings
Program, as well as implementing
regulations in 23 CFR part 924, remain
in effect. Included in these combined
provisions are requirements for State
DOTs to annually produce and submit
to FHWA by August 31 reports related
to the implementation and effectiveness
of their HSIPs, that are to include
information on: (a) Progress being made
to implement HSIP projects and the
effectiveness of these projects in
reducing traffic fatalities and serious
injuries [Sections 148(h)]; and (b)
progress being made to implement the
Railway-Highway Crossings Program
and the effectiveness of the projects in
that program [sections 130(g) and
148(h)], which will be used by FHWA
to produce and submit biennial reports
to Congress. To be able to produce these
reports, State DOTs must have safety
data and analysis systems capable of
identifying and determining the relative
severity of hazardous highway locations
on all public roads, based on both crash
experience and crash potential, as well
as determining the effectiveness of
highway safety improvement projects.
FHWA provides an online reporting tool
to support the annual HSIP reporting
process. Additional information is
available on the Office of Safety Web
site at https://safety.fhwa.dot.gov/hsip/
resources/onrpttool/. Reporting into the
online reporting tool meets all report
requirements and USDOT Web site
compatibility requirements. The
information contained in the annual
HSIP reports provides FHWA with a
means for monitoring the effectiveness
of these programs and may be used by
Congress for determining the future
HSIP program structure and funding
levels.
Respondents: 51 State Transportation
Departments, including the District of
Columbia.
Frequency: Annually.
Estimated Average Burden per
Response: 250 hours.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 12,750 hours (51 states at an
average of 250 hours each).
Public Comments Invited: You are
asked to comment on any aspect of this
information collection, including: (1)
Whether the proposed collection is
necessary for the FHWA’s performance;
(2) the accuracy of the estimated
burdens; (3) ways for the FHWA to
enhance the quality, usefulness, and
clarity of the collected information; and
(4) ways that the burden could be
minimized, including the use of
