One-Time Special Application
Submittal Deadline: November 4, 2016, 4:30 p.m. MST

The Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) is a federally funded program aimed at eliminating Fatal and Serious Injury (Type A) crashes on the roadway system. Due to an increase in available federal dollars, LHTAC has been authorized to distribute an additional $2.5M of the state HSIP funds through the Local Highway Safety Improvement Program (LHSIP), a program administered through LHTAC. This increase is a one-time allotment specifically designated for expenditure on FY 2017 LHSIP projects. Eligibility for the LHSIP is based on Local Highway Jurisdictions (LHJs) with a Fatal and Serious Injury (Type A) crash from 2011-2015. LHJs with at least one Serious Injury (Type A) or Fatal crash over the last five years are eligible to apply. LHJs that qualify for this additional funding will be identified by LHTAC and notified. Depending on the type of project a local match may be required, not to exceed 7.34%. (more…)
