Gwinnett County is excited to announce an invitation for sealed proposals targeting the Enhancing Traffic Safety Through Advanced Data Analytics and Quick-build Interventions project, an endeavor supported by the U.S. Department of Transportation's Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) Grants Program. The SS4A program funds regional, local, and Tribal initiatives through grants to prevent roadway deaths and serious injuries. By integrating advanced analytics, big data, and Near-Miss technologies, as well as implementing quick-build interventions, we aim to showcase practical and innovative approaches to enhance road safety within a short timeframe. The proposed projects will enhance our ability to strategically plan and implement safety measures, fostering a safer and more sustainable transportation infrastructure. This project includes using SS4A funds to test technologies and strategies before including them in the, currently under development, Safety Action Plan. It would pilot speed management treatments, employ enhanced data analytics, and integrate technologies to both plan and evaluate safety interventions. Priority corridors for safety interventions include locally maintained roads on the high injury network with issues that can be addressed using quick-build materials, ensuring we can implement low-cost, high-impact solutions in disadvantaged communities. To assist in identifying these corridors, and aid in the development of the Action Plan, we will acquire a comprehensive traffic crash data management, analysis, and reporting software and obtain system-wide data regarding vehicular movements (e.g., near-misses, speed, volume).
