Highway Safety Plan Survey

Every life counts!

The Florida Department of Transportation State Safety Office seeks input into its Highway Safety Plan. The Highway Safety Plan covers a 3-year period from July 2023 through June 2026 and describes the State’s priority areas for the use of federal grant funding to reduce traffic-related fatalities and injuries. This funding comes from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

Every life counts! Our target is zero traffic-related fatalities and injuries. Please take a few minutes to complete this survey to help us understand the traffic safety needs of your community.
