PM1: Highway Safety

FHWA and FTA jointly issued a Planning Rule that establishes various performance measures to assess roadway safety (PM1), pavement and bridge condition (PM2), system performance and freight movement (PM3), transit asset management (TAM), and transit safety. State DOTs and MPOs are required to set targets for the various federal performance measures. WAMPO has chosen to support KDOT’s 2025 PM1 targets, and their updated 2023 and 2025 PM2 and PM3 targets for the WAMPO region.

TAM FEDERAL PERFORMANCE MEASURES

In 2012, MAP-21 mandated FTA to develop a rule establishing a strategic and systematic process of operating, maintaining, and improving public capital assets effectively through their entire life cycle. The Transit Asset Management (TAM) Final Rule, 49 USC 5326, became effective October 1, 2016, and established three performance measures. The performance management requirements outlined in 49 USC 5326 are minimum standards for transit operators. In 2025, WAMPO's TPB approved to continue support of KDOT’s TAM targets established in there 2022 TAM plan.

TRANSIT SAFETY FEDERAL PERFORMANCE MEASURES

Under the FTA’s Public Transportation Agency Safety Plan (PTASP) rule, applicable transit agencies are required to develop safety plans that define how those agencies will implement Safety Management Systems (SMSs). These plans are required to include targets for performance measures defined in the National Public Transportation Safety Plan, which relate to fatalities, injuries, safety events, and system reliability. MPOs are federally required to set performance targets for these transit safety performance measures for their regions, in coordination with transit agencies and state governments. These requirements acknowledge the collaborative relationships needed to manage safety risks in transit systems.
