In partnership with FDOT and Broward County, the MPO developed a safety program whereby safety projects will be identified, planned and implemented through the MPO’s project delivery process. High crash areas are first identified in the Metropolitan Transportation Plan, whereby two Roadway Safety Analyses (RSAs) per year are developed. Project development and engineering then takes place for the concepts in the RSAs over the next several years, and safety projects are then constructed either through municipalities, FDOT, Broward County, or MTECC.
