Board of County Commissioners · 2026-05-05 · agenda_item

The Pasco County MPO is planning a safety initiative to address rising transportation fatalities. This initiative, part of the UPWP, involves reviewing crash data, identifying trends, and conducting field safety audits in high-crash areas. The MPO will also coordinate with the Florida Highway Patrol to understand safety trends and will participate in various safety trainings and committees. A key outcome will be the development of a comprehensive Safety Action Plan. This planning phase is expected to run from July 2024 through June 2026. The project will involve data analysis, research, and planning activities. Local businesses specializing in engineering, data analysis, and administrative support could find opportunities to assist with these planning and coordination tasks. Engaging early in this planning process allows businesses to understand the project's scope and potential future needs before formal bids or contracts are established.
