in creating a Safe System • Present Safe System strategies that orient teams toward longer-term safety visions • Illustrate safety practices drawn from domestic and international literature on Safe System interventions and policies • Offer step-by-step guidance on how to effectively implement Safe System–aligned practices This guide was developed as part of NCHRP Project 17-101, "Applying the Safe System Approach to Transportation Planning, Design, and Operations in the United States." A conduct of research report, available as NCHRP Web-Only Document 413: Applying the Safe System Approach to Transportation Planning, Design, and Operations, complements this guide and offers greater detail on the research methods and results and discusses how the research informed the creation of the guidelines. This complementary report can be found on the National Academies Press website (nap.nationalacademies.org)
