A Brief History of the PSCi
--Version 1.0 debuted in 2008
First nine “proven safety countermeasures.”
Envisioned as a means to boost systemic implementation.
Began tracking implementation progress.
--Version 2.0 released in 2012
Retained four of original nine.
Added five new countermeasures.
New progress tracking approach anchored to Focus State status and SHSP Emphasis Areas.
Steps to PSCi Version 3.0
--FHWA formed working groups to review the PSCi.
--First group evaluated the overall initiative.
Widely popular and has established a valued brand.
Consensus to continue the PSCi with minor tweaks.
--Second group vetted candidates for the update.
Identified and evaluated 31 candidate countermeasures and strategies.
In selecting the newest group of PSCi’s FHWA’s Office of Safety Reaffirms a Data-Driven approach
FHWA will continue to support States and other safety partners’ efforts to:
Conduct appropriate analysis of quality safety data.
Use evidence-based framework for decision-making.
Use the CMF Clearinghouse to choose appropriate countermeasures.
Consider the proven safety countermeasures as viable options.
The Proven Safety Countermeasures showcase a brief history and practical applications such as roadside design improvements, reduced left-turn conflicts, and systemic low-cost measures at intersections. The PSCi 3.0 introduces innovative strategies like local road safety plans and the use of multiple countermeasures at stop-controlled intersections. Access valuable resources and contacts for further information in enhancing intersection and roadway safety.
