Our Surplus Eliminator Program, which is called “Strategic Initiatives” in the law, will have $11 million dollars to give the local jurisdictions for maintenance and construction of local roadways. This money will also be used for the child pedestrian safety program which we are planning to partner with ITD on. – Jeff Miles, LHTAC Administrator (more…)
The Local Highway Technical Assistance Council (LHTAC) provides an important linkage between Local Highway Jurisdictions (LHJs) and the Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) in the utilization of Federal-aid highway funds available to the LHJs in Idaho. These quarterly progress reports include the status listing of current and upcoming LHTAC projects for each district.

PLEASE SHARE The Center for Local Aid Support is hosting the following free webinars:
Traffic Incident Management (TIM) is the planned and coordinated multi-disciplinary processes used to detect, respond, and clear traffic incidents as quickly as possible while protecting the safety of on-scene responders and the traveling public. Safe, quick clearance is necessary to minimize the safety hazards at the incident scene. Effective TIM processes can improve responder and motorist safety while keeping traffic moving. Please join us for both parts of the two-webinar series hosted by the Center for Local-aid Support (CLAS) to discuss how TIM can help make your community safer and more efficient. Part I: Attendees will gain a foundational understanding of TIM Program actions and proven strategies. Part II: Attendees will bridge TIM Program actions and strategies with training by learning about the National Responder Training Program taught throughout the country.

Pedestrians account for over 17.5 percent of all fatalities in motor vehicle traffic crashes, and the majority of these deaths occur at uncontrolled crossing locations such as mid-block or un-signalized intersections. These are among the most common locations for pedestrian fatalities generally because of inadequate pedestrian crossing facilities and insufficient or inconvenient crossing opportunities, all of which create barriers to safe, convenient, and complete pedestrian networks. Please join the STEP webinar hosted by the Center for Local-aid Support (CLAS) to discuss countermeasures to keep pedestrians safe at uncontrolled crossing locations including
