The South Jersey Transportation Planning Organization (SJTPO) project team will share key elements of the draft Atlantic County Local Road Safety Plan. Information will be on display Wednesday, October 23, 2024, at the Anthony "Tony" Canale Training Center. Information will include the planning process to date and recommended road safety projects. The meeting provides citizens with the opportunity to learn more about the plan and provide input on the plan.
What is a Local Road Safety Plan (LRSP)?
A Local Road Safety Plan (LRSP) is a five-year actionable plan that provides a framework for identifying, analyzing, and prioritizing roadway safety improvements on all county and municipal roads. The LRSP development process is tailored to address local issues and needs through continuous stakeholder involvement. This process ultimately results in a prioritized list of issues, risks, actions, and improvements that can be implemented to reduce fatalities and serious injuries on local roads.
What is the goal of the Atlantic County LRSP?
Atlantic County's goal is to reduce fatal and suspected serious injury crashes to zero by 2050.
