Abstract

This article summarizes the results of an evaluation of the organizational and decision-making processes associated with the Community/Corridor Traffic Safety Program (C/CTSP) in the state of Washington. This program was intended to help communities reduce collisions in specific high-crash traffic corridors by encouraging cooperation among a wide variety of public agencies from each level of government, and between public agencies and private sector groups. One of the program's goals was to encourage traffic safety managers to test a new and potentially better process for making local traffic safety policies. The results reported here indicate that the corridor project groups in Washington State were successful in developing decisionmaking processes involving multiple agencies and groups, despite some short-term frustration experienced by group participants.
