The Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (CAMPO) is seeking public input on its Regional Safety Action Plan (RSAP), which aims to enhance traffic safety across its six-county region. They are currently collecting public comments through July 11.
According to CAMPO, the plan aims to reduce fatal and serious-injury crashes while improving transportation systems for all users, including pedestrians, cyclists, public transportation users, and drivers, with an emphasis on investments in vulnerable communities. County- specific plans have been completed for Caldwell, Hays, and Williamson counties. Plans are under development for Bastrop and Burnet counties. Travis County developed its own safety action plan in coordination with the CAMPO regional plan.
The county plans will be integrated into the overall RSAP to create a coordinated approach to safety across the region.
The RSAP will focus on several key areas, according to CAMPO:
• Revising road designs • Recommending policy changes
• Improving traffic enforcement
• Enhancing educational programs and supporting the development of road safety culture in the region
• Infrastructure improvements to address equitable investment in historically underserved communities
This is the third online open house and public commenting period. It ends July 11. The materials and survey can be accessed at www.campo-rsap.com. Interested citizens can also call 512-651-3964 to request information by mail.
