GOAL 4 | POLICY AND PROGRAM
4.6 ESTABLISH A ROAD SAFETY AUDIT (RSA) PROGRAM, POLICY, AND PROCEDURES
Develop a comprehensive RSA program to evaluate locations with a history of KSI crashes, sites of new KSI crashes, and segments or intersections identified through crash risk assessments for safety improvements. Build on any prior City or TPW experiences with internal reviews of KSI locations to ensure continuity and learning. Assign a cross- disciplinary and cross-department RSA team, including representatives from police, fire, EMS, parks, and other relevant departments, to meet regularly to evaluate crash patterns and risks, identify programmatic and infrastructure safety interventions, and provide annual recommendations for budgets and improvements to address identified issues. The RSA program should emphasize actionable fixes, such as infrastructure upgrades, signage, markings, lighting, and other immediate safety measures, in addition to long-term studies. Equip the RSA team with the capacity for technical analyses, high-level strategic thinking, and driving systemic change toward Fort Worth’s goal. Collaborate with Trinity Metro to align this plan with their ongoing transit planning and investments, including route and network organization, bus stop replacements, and transit station access. Work with Trinity Metro to incorporate their upcoming bus stop siting policy, ensuring alignment with the City’s goals. Encourage the placement of stops near intersections, preferably far-side locations, and prioritize the installation of high-visibility pedestrian crossings at stops and stations along the transit system. Support Trinity Metro in the development of their Strategic Action Plan and upcoming System Plan (expected in FY26), ensuring consistency with City objectives. Continue coordination on bus stop pad installation and explore funding opportunities, including grants that require a 20% local match, to support these initiatives.
