Tribal Transportation Safety Strategy Pilot Program Service

The agency is seeking a vendor to provide a tribal transportation safety strategy pilot program service. This initiative aims to solve the problem of high traffic fatality rates in tribal communities, particularly those lacking site-specific crash data. The selected vendor will develop a next-generation tribal transportation strategic safety plan that updates risk-based safety planning and includes case studies of successful safety infrastructure improvements. The scope of work requires creating a toolbox of training, analysis tools, and guidelines to be implemented as a pilot program in at least one federally recognized tribal community. The project also covers the development of risk-based safety planning guidelines that identify available data sets for extrapolation to data-poor communities. Additionally, the agency requires the identification of artificial intelligence and design tools that use geometric roadway and traffic traits to suggest safety improvements based on regional or national crash data trends. Eligibility is restricted to onshore organizations based in the United States. The agency requires all performance of the work to be conducted offsite. The agency is currently looking for proposals to determine the budget, and no specific key dates are provided in the sourcing details.
