Narrative
Per federal statute, MPOs must adopt targets for safety performance measures. MPOs may either agree to support the targets developed by the state, or they may develop and adopt their own. The MPO must adopt the safety performance measures by February 27, 2024. Brian Murphy, Traffic Safety Systems Engineer from NCDOT's Traffic Safety Unit, will provide an overview of the safety performance measures and share safety data specific to the DCHC MPO urbanized area. MPO staff recommends supporting the state's safety targets by resolution. The attached resolution includes NCDOT's safety performance measure targets, and the attached presentation provides additional background and information.
